    Summary

    Interpersonal matters have never been his strong suit; there’s a brashness to himself that he can’t quite shake. He attributes it to the dog-eat-dog world of growing up the youngest of eleven. He’s struggled to get past the acquaintance stage with any of the men in his cohort and it should worry him, but in all truth, he likes his solitude. Having time and space of his own is still a novelty even four years post leaving his childhood home. The majority of his free time is spent reading and listening to the silence around him.
    OR
    Goffredo makes a new friend and learns how to play chess, smoke a cigarette, and do a pull-up…among other things.

    Summary

    The chaos of the conclave forces Thomas into a stress rut the day of the final vote. He retreats to his room to ride it out on his own as he has handled every other rut in his life. Vincent has a better solution.

    Also known as: "I make Vincent 'the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end' because that quote is being painfully under-utilized by this fandom's a/b/o section!" fic. Not sorry.

    Summary

    When Goffredo Tedesco becomes a father overnight, he walks away from the title of Patriarch, the city of Venice, and the man who once held his heart in quiet fists. Rome is no sanctuary—but it becomes a home.

    A baby.
    Four godfathers.
    One lemon tree in a pot.
    And Aldo Bellini, who still watches him like he’s trying not to love him again.

    As Luca grows, so does everything else: the grief, the tenderness, the second chances none of them thought they’d get. And somewhere between the laundry and the lullabies, Goffredo learns that family is something you make. Over time. In spite of everything.

    This isn’t about sainthood.
    It’s about survival.
    And the holy, infuriating miracle of love that doesn’t let go.

    Or:
    He gave up a title for a child.
    And found something holier in return.

    Summary

    Was he just paranoid? Was he so far gone that he was just imagining things? Maybe, but Thomas kept praying, focusing on the words of his prayer, as he swore something stood right next to his bed. All he could hear, however, was the clock, the beeping and whirring of the monitors, and the sound of his own labored breaths in the darkness.

     

    Give us this day our daily bread,

    and forgive us our trespasses,

    as we forgive those who trespass against-

     

    He let out a choked sound as a hand covered his mouth, tilting his head to the side, and something sharp latched onto his neck, digging into his flesh.

    -Or-

    Thomas’ cancer returns, but someone prevents his death by turning him into a vampire. Unsure of how to navigate this new life, he seeks out Vincent Benitez to help find the vampire that turned him.

    Summary

    Goffredo Tedesco, or rather: Father Goffredo Tedesco is a priest, lifelong dream of his.

    But not everything is a bed of roses for him, as he approaches the middle age, he gets a new temptation: Forming a family.

    It first starts as a dream, a faraway fantasy during his lonely sinful nights. A house of his own, a warm chimney, children running around and playing, and a wife.

    A fruitful, Proverbs 31 woman, submissive, silent, who wears ankle-length skirts, knowledgeable in the word of the Lord and ready to appease her husband any moment, never talking back and nodding silently, the kind of woman his mother was, and her mother before her.

    That is when he meets Maranata, he meets her at a Doctorate-level research he was invited to.

    Maranata, with her long hair, long skirts, makes pasta from scratch, read the Bible forward and Backwards.

    But also a woman of world, someone who studies, prepares and bites back, a woman that does not stand for injustice and won't take disrespect.

    What will be more important? His clergical vows or his ideals of the perfect woman?

    Summary

    Aldo Bellini is an art restorer dreaming of the day he gets to work on a piece by his favourite Renaissance artist, Jacopo Lomeli. Goffredo Tedesco, PhD, is an art historian tracing the story of the world's most elusive Renaissance artist... Jacopo Lomeli.

    When an extremely rare Lomeli painting falls under the threat of being trapped forever in a selfish man's private collection, Aldo and Goffredo race against time to find answers about this mysterious man from the past... provided the police don't catch them first.

    In Aldo's defence, it wasn't exactly his fault. Blame it all on Goffredo, and Aldo's inability to say no to him, no matter how hard he tries.

    Summary

    The farmer may treasure his fattest calf, all plump on its rump and with the sweetest mewling. The farmer may pet it, soothe it, bring it into his arm in a gentle, paternal embrace—until the calf forgets itself, believing itself to be a man, a son. Yet no amount of pretence lasts forevermore.

    Eventually, the son will return. Not even a prodigal one, but the true protégé.

    When he does, the farmer will once more stroke the underbelly of the calf with worn, gentle hands before leading it to the butcher’s knife. A slaughter to celebrate the return of his son.

    Aldo looks upon his butcher.
    Tedesco gazes back.

    (Following the end of the conclave, Tedesco reveals his knowledge of Aldo’s secret to him. Aldo finds himself to be a docile beast led to the butcher’s hand.)

    Summary

    "the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results"
    - Albert Einstein

    Tedesco finds himself stuck in a time loop that always ends with his own demise. This leads to a spiral of bad choices and uncreative attempts at freedom.
    Maybe, just maybe, he might learn something along the way.

    -

    All is written. Will update/post new chapters regularly.
