Summary
"Life isn't a storybook, Durin."
"Ours could be," Durin said quietly. He put his cheek on Scara's shoulder again. And now he held onto Scara's upper arm, hugging Scara's elbow to his chest.
"No," Scara said, pulling his arm free. "It can't."
Later that night, Scara lay alone, tracing his stare over the patterned ceiling of his Akademiya room, telling himself that it was better this way. Better to give Durin a small, manageable wound and teach him not to be so vulnerable, so open-hearted, before the world gave him the kind of wound that never heals.
Scara pressed his palm to that empty place in his chest. He never understood how the absence of a heart hurt him more than its presence.
A series of interconnected one-shots, set during the summer that Durin spent with Scaramouche in Sumeru.
Scara volunteers to look after Durin for the summer. But he didn't anticipate just how hard and how quickly he would fall in love -- or how terrifying it would be, to allow himself to trust another person.
Smut starts in Chapter 3

Summary
Durin tilted his head and felt the soft tickle of Razor's hair against his jawline. The other man was so close. Eyes half-lidded, flicking from Durin's eyes to his mouth. Durin reached and brushed his knuckle against the scar on Razor's cheek. He could feel the ridge of it, even through his gloves.
The heat between them, the pyronic cove of Durin's own wings. His whole body was a lute string plucking, over and over. Blood pulsing, insistent and alive.
"It doesn't have to be serious," Durin said softly -- to himself, to Razor, to a wanderer in the past who could no longer hear him.
A three-part smut series, focusing on Durin's messy on-again, off-again relationship with Scaramouche -- and the ~drama~ that enters it when Durin hooks up with Razor one night in Wolvendom
Part 1: Durin x Razor (vanilla, semi-public)
Parts 2 & 3: Durin x Scaramouche (bondage, CNC)
Minor / Background Characters: Klee, Albedo, Flins, Varka
