Summary
Gellert Grindelwald cannot believe his own eyes when, just a few days after his most successful rally yet, an unspectacular owl arrives with a letter from none other than Albus Dumbledore himself.
And Albus Dumbledore cannot believe his own stupidity - perhaps over-indulging on firewhiskey and sending a letter to a former partner who just so happens to have become the most notorious mass murderer of the century truly was not on the list of things he ever wished to experience.
Regardless, the damage is done. Decisions need to be made. The smallest stone can cause an avalanche after all, and who knows what might be swept along in its wake - or unearthed?
OR:
A story of two men realising that the wisest do not conquer in extremes, but in each other's moderation.Series

Summary
31 year old Nick Nelson retired from professional rugby and is giving Sarah Nelson a well-deserved year off from running Lavender Fields Bed and Breakfast. And Nick’s doing fine, thank you very much. Until the guest name C. Spring changes everything.
Note: 1-31 are the original story (Nick's point of view). Chapters 32 - 60 are from when Charlie bullied me into providing his perspective, too.

Summary
"You don't need to do that" Charlie insisted, as Nick patted his pockets looking for his phone.
"Do what?"
"Ask for my number. I know that's not what this is"
It couldn't be. Charlie didn't do this. He didn't give boys his number. He didn't give anything more than one night. It wasn't worth it.
.........
Charlie Spring is doing...ok.
Life is complicated but there's one thing he keeps simple. He doesn't date, not after the mess of his last relationship.Enter Nick Nelson.

Summary
“Come help me find an apothecary nearby,” Ed calls to Lamp, who’s still laying in front of the door. Ed pulls up the Conjure browser on his phone and searches for apothecaries in his area. There are a dozen or so results that pop up by the time Lamp has reluctantly left his post by the front door and flopped down next to Ed on the couch, pushing his head under Ed’s arm so he can look at the search results.
One of them jumps out immediately: “Stede’s Stupendous Shop of Spellcasting Sundries,” Ed reads aloud. What the fuck is that name? It’s fascinating and hilarious. Ed needs to go there immediately. He looks up reviews for the shop, and they’re either 5 stars or 1 star, nothing in between. He checks one of the 1-star reviews — left by someone supposedly named Calico Jack, which is a weird name — and it starts with, “There’s this angry chicken, right,” and Ed stops reading there because that sounds like the coolest fucking thing he’s ever heard, and he wants to experience it for himself.
~
Stede's a lonely apothecary owner looking for love. Ed's a jaded potions master looking for his place in the world. This is how they find what they're looking for in each other.- Language:

Summary
Edward Teach is a pop star about to embark on his latest tour when he develops vocal nodes. Stede Bonnet is the voice specialist who treats him. Sparks fly.
“Right. And could you please describe your singing voice to me? Or sing something you feel showcases your voice, if you feel comfortable. For my usual clientele, I’d suggest their go-to audition song, but I don’t get the sense that you do much auditioning.”
There’s a long pause during which Stede takes note of the guy’s eyes. Not a literal case note, that would be inappropriate. His eyes are large and brown and expressive, quicksand eyes. Eyes a person could get lost in. Right now, they’re slightly narrowed at Stede. He seems to decide something.
“Listen,” the client says. “I appreciate you not wanting to make it weird, but I promise I’m used to it.”
“Used to it?” Stede asks, and there go the eyes again. Stede has the oddest sense of being taken apart, exposed, like the recurring dream he has of walking through the halls of his secondary school without a single stitch of clothing on, down to the same vague, unsettling sense that it should be more awkward than it is.
