Summary
Aiden, despite what Harvard liked to say, was not negligent in his duties to teach a younger generation. He was, very simply, not interested in describing the basics of logical reasoning to a room of hungover twenty year olds.
That's what he told himself, as he blindly fumbled to turn off his alarm for the third time, lips working on drawing out soft sounds from Harvard's sweet mouth.

Summary
“It was thrilling, to succeed at something. He wasn’t the best fencer in the school or the top of his class, but he could do this. He could make himself smaller and, he discovered, could make himself something other people wanted to look at - wanted to do more than just look at.”
Beauty, hunger, desirability: all synonymous to one another for Aiden Kane. But does it have to be this way?
(Title from Broken Glass by Lorde)

Summary
Nicholas Cox and Seiji Katayama were destined to be friends and stay friends until an event changed their lives and tore them apart. For Nicholas, it hadn’t bothered him nor changed how he saw Seiji but Seiji, on the other hand, felt the opposite, letting it build a sense of enmity in himself.
Nicholas hadn’t expected to see Seiji again, not after so many years, and especially not in fencing. He doesn’t understand Seiji and his ways anymore, confused by why Seiji holds something against him.
Seiji can’t help but have a love-hate relationship with Nicholas, at least inside his mind.
Can they go past this and rebuild once more?

Summary

Summary
The world of Menarths has gone for a long period of time without any disturbances of the greater peace (for the most part, excluding the time there was a war between the country of Mistfold and South Pelinath, but that's besides the point), but when the princess of Mistguard disappears through a treacherous gate on the other side of the known world, the King holds a tournament to search for the best fighters in the land. Hopefully, in creating a solid party of adventurers, the princess can be safely found and brought back to the place she belongs.
His hires include the paladin Harvard Lee, infamous for solving a werewolf problem without silver, a sportfuck bard from a noble house, Aiden Kane, a monk from a part of Lowtown with a heart of gold (and, perhaps, a surprising understanding of the blade), Eugene Labao, the renowned monster hunter Seiji Katayama, traveled from the largest city in the world just to be hired, and an underdog fighter who cost a lot of people their bets, Nicholas Cox.
This was, to put it lightly, an utterly terrible idea.

“No, no. It’s cool. We’ve been best friends for almost as long as I can remember. Best friends– uh– tell each other stuff like that. Locker room talk."
“Right. Best friends are always telling each other about their kinks and pushing their beds together and kissing each other for practice.”

"He sent you postcards every day whenever he went away, to say, Thinking of you."
"Yeah, because we're best friends."

Summary
It’s not that Aiden has a thing. Like, seriously, he doesn’t have a thing.
It’s more of a feeling that sometimes arises in very specific situations. Like when Harvard pushes him into one of the changing room stalls, and kisses the breath out of him.
