Summary
Murder gets treated relatively lightly in Volyne, but that's only to be expected given that it shares it's borders with Mirror City - which is just as often called Murder City, home of the country's finest assassins, where each and every mirror can be used to scry into someone's life in order to figure out how best to kill them.
But when a woman's dead body is found in just the right place to cause a riot that will draw in his friends, Jan Tarlo - who swore years ago to stop making bad decisions, or indeed any decisions whatsoever - gets drawn into a web of political intrigue that forces him further and further back into his past.
Back to Mirror City.

pray to me (between the sheets) by greyduckgreygoose for nununununu

Summary
The look in the Lord's eyes when he raised them to meet Oleander's was of a man deeply out of his element, and the manner he rose from his seat was absurdly polite, as if greeting an acquaintance of his own station.
"Pleasure, my Lord," Oleander said, folding his arm at his waist and bowing deeply.
"Your pleasure?" Bitterbrook murmured, his fingers flexing at his side.
"And yours, I'm hopeful," Oleander replied serenely, and was rewarded with a slight, surprised smile.

of love, your kiss (those hands, those eyes divine) by Rubick for SassySnowperson
Fandoms: Original Work
23 Apr 2021
Tags
Summary
It would be easier, Nathaniel thinks, if James would get married. But every suitor, no matter how handsome or beautiful or rich or intelligent, he refused.
“Why do you not marry?” Nathaniel had asked him once.
James had smiled at him over his tumbler of gin, his amber eyes dancing in the firelight of nearby torches. Instead of answering, he’d asked, “Why do you not marry, my dear friend?”
Nathaniel’s cheeks had warmed, and he had stuttered through his answer. “I will—I shall. I’m just…” he gestured out with his glass, looking out over the gardens, “waiting for the right person.” The truth was he’d always been content to spend his life buried in his books. Until James had come along. Beautiful, confident James, who was everything Nathaniel never knew he wanted in a companion.
James had reached out, steadying Nathaniel's hand, clinking his tumblr against James’s glass. He’d stared right into Nathaniels' wide eyes as he said softly, “As am I.” He’d held Nathaniel’s gaze, and for one wild, desperate moment, Nathaniel thought James may lean in and kiss him. But James had only lifted his glass to his mouth for another sip, before standing up and offering his arm to Nathaniel to return back to the house.

Summary
Russell turned to walk away, and Aiden asked, “Are you the new tenant? I’m Aiden; I own the tattoo shop next door to you. The Ink Kink!”
Russell paused, his back still to Aiden, looking at him over his shoulder. Which gave Aiden an absolutely spectacular view of his ass, which Aiden was sure was firm enough to bounce any number of quarters off of.
“Yes,” Aiden’s new neighbor confirmed, and then continued to walk to the back door of his new shop. He walked inside without another word, shutting the door firmly behind him.
“Well then,” Aiden said, his brain still trying to figure out what the fuck just happened, “nice to meet you.”

Summary
Caught on the brink of destruction under the overwhelming force of the invading Eastern Empire, Prince Valerian makes the hard decision to accept a peace treaty instead. That it means he'll now be a hostage married to the man he swore to fight to his last dying breath is only the start of everything he finds offensive about it, but his people come first.
He tells himself that he will never stop hating the man who forced this choice upon him. He tells himself a lot of things, and can only hope that all of them stay true.

r/relationships: Boss’s nemesis keeps helping me out, and it’s making things awkward by graveExcitement for Elsin
Fandoms: Original Work
11 Nov 2021
Tags
Summary
My (23M) boss (28M) has a workplace nemesis (mid to late 20s?M) who is, in a lot of ways, an asshole. Like, my boss is definitely in the right on any conflict between them. Even when the asshole isn’t actively causing problems, he’s a constant nuisance and a thorn in my boss’ side. I’m loyal to my boss (let’s call him Jake), and I also have to help clean up the mess the asshole (we’ll call him Sebastian) leaves in his wake. So, obviously, Sebastian is pretty high on my shit list.
The only issue is that Sebastian keeps… helping me?

"Oh, we had sex," Hassan said. Someone walking past the table did a double-take. Hassan either didn't notice or ignored them. "Some people don't want to have sex at all, but I don't mind. I just don't think about it. So Stacy would ask if I felt up to having sex, and usually we would."
...
"So," Hassan went on, "I don't know if gender is really a consideration in whether I'm attracted to someone. A sample size of one isn't really enough to draw any conclusions.""I mean," Dennis said.
"It's not enough for him," Matt said.
I am basically Hassan. Hassan is basically me. (... no joke, I literally had the "I've only had one partner, and n=1 is an inadequate sample size to draw any meaningful conclusions" conversation with a fellow psych major in college. Pretty sure those were my exact words, in fact. 🤓😅)

A More Satisfying Vengeance by SassySnowperson for PerfectlySteadfast
Fandoms: Original Work
20 Jul 2020
Tags
Summary
When Sironn married the King of Kadar, he quickly grew to understand that the King had all the power, and Sironn had none at all. Which is why Sironn considers it nothing short of a miracle he outlived the abusive tyrant.
He'll take solace in that, as his own end is no-doubt coming quickly now that his husband has been declared a traitor and executed for his crimes. After all, there's only one thing to do with a deposed king's spouse, and that's kill him as quickly as possible.
One problem. The new king, Eshan, disagrees.
