Summary
“Is that…?” Vincent trailed off, still not processing the scene in front of him.
“A dead body.” Alastor finished his sentence, he appeared more calm than his roommate. “It seems so.”
“What do we do?”
Alastor grabbed Vincent’s hand, making his heterochromic friend stiffen up. “We go back to our dorm, pretend we didn’t see it, and come up with some kind of alibi.”
The sudden sound of a police siren in the distance made the two young men jump.
“Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!”
~~~~~~~~~
Alastor Benoit is looking forward to starting college and studying Media, that is until he meets his roommate, Vincent Whittman, a Business Major who stares at him too much for Alastor's liking. The two are somewhat cordial, friendly even, that is until the two stumble upon a dead body in the bayou behind the college. The body is discovered by the police soon after and they must keep their secret under wraps best they can.
Who knows what shenanigans might happen and what they might discover about each other (and themselves) along the way.TLDR: Modern-day MurderMedia college AU with a murder on the sidelines

Summary
“It’s just so hard!” Vincent whined while on a video call. “He’s so far away!”
His sister stared back at him on his phone screen with an unamused expression. “Vinnie, he’s an hour away from you,” she deadpanned. “And you saw him yesterday.”
Vincent hummed sadly. His little sister was right, Alastor was only an hour away from him and he did see him yesterday.
He was just not coping well with the separation.
~~~~~~~~~
The second semester of college has started, so Alastor has returned to living on campus, and Vincent, having dropped out, is “left behind”. Alastor and Vincent, of course, have a plan to make sure they can deal with being without each other physically every day but they are dramatic.
And Vincent, who has always been the more dramatic of the two, is fairing harder with the “distance”.
Oh, and the little bomb that Alastor had dropped on him just a few days before going back to college that was eating Vincent alive.Series

Summary
“We catch our flight tomorrow –Saturday,” Vincent was saying, “we arrive at midday. Grandpa and Lizzie are gonna pick us up from the airport, no surprises, just a quiet afternoon and dinner. Sunday morning Grandpa plays golf with his friends, and when he comes back we’ll go out for lunch with my parents and other siblings –super public, so Mom won’t make a scene– and if everything goes okay, we all go to Mom and Dad’s house for a bit.”
Alastor nodded, this was about the seventh time Vincent had said this in the last three days. He knew that this was the plan and he didn’t have any objections. They could only hope that things would go smoothly.
~~~~~~
Vincent and Alastor fly up to New York for a second visit, this time to meet Vincent's parents, who do not approve of Vincent's "lifestyle" choices or... anything about him.
Vincent's father has often been apathetic to Vincent in general but... his mother...
She was something else.Series
