    Summary

    Lestat could scarcely remember a time when he’d felt so alone. In a cheap motel room just outside of Hartford, the walls of his carefully-crafted facade at last began to fall down. Memories that had hounded him for months all condensing down to a single point that felt like a blade pressing to the center of his throat. Slashing him open and bleeding him out until he wished for nothing but to burn. And there weren’t enough drugs in all the world to make the remembering stop, but Lestat had tried anyway.

    Or: The one where Louis makes everything okay again.

    Summary

    It’s his sixth year at Hogwarts, and Remus Lupin has no intentions of making any major changes to his daily routine. He’s a creature of habit; of schedules and lists and predictability, and of comfort…when he has the option.

    James Potter, however, has all the intentions of making major changes to Remus’s daily routine. It’s out of love, Remus knows this, but that doesn’t mean he has to like it.

    And, as the year progresses, James isn’t the only one testing the boundaries of his friendship with Remus Lupin.

    Summary

    “Qifrey. I want us to paint tonight. I want to be eternal with you, and I want the memory of us to subsist.”

    Qifrey smiled, and smiled and smiled as he answered:

    “I think we want the same thing.”

    or: Qifrey and Olruggio, as they reached adulthood.

    Summary

    Interviewer: Anyone special in your life these days? 

    Kuroo: Hah. Well, yeah, I guess you could say that. H- she’s not exactly a fan of attention, so I think she’d kill me if I were to say anything about her publicly. But, well, she means everything to me. She’s the best thing that ever happened to me. I’m completely sure I wouldn’t be here without hi-her.

    / In which famous volleyball player Kuroo is obvious, Lev is oblivious, and Kenma just wants to mess with his fans. Social media; set post-time skip.

    Summary

    Olruggio rumbled. He could feel the vibration in his chest, from Olruggio’s to his own. “I’m not leaving you,” he said, voice gruff and fumbling. “I don’t — I want — you know I’ve wanted to hug you too, right?”

    He sounded terribly embarrassed. Qifrey giggled, half in endearment and half mind-numbing relief. “Right,” he murmured, fingers relaxing by a fraction. “Sorry. You used to be so affectionate with your hands.”

    Summary

    He is frozen, almost trembling, fists clenching and unclenching at his sides, thoughts swirling as he meticulously shames himself for what he knows he is about to do. What he wants to do. He is staring at a shirt he’s laid out on the bed.

    Olly’s shirt.

    ....

    Qifrey steals Olly's favorite shirt instead of washing it and does some...um...less than holy things with it

    Summary

    Oruggio’s hand tightens around Qifrey’s. The silver haired man startles noticeably in his grip. “Tell me you’re not planning anything stupid. Promise me you won’t let this go too far.” 

    Oruggio says and does nothing to control the urgency in his voice. To anyone else, it might seem like he is trying to threaten the man into compliance. Those who know Oruggio will be able to tell that he’s downright terrified of losing his husband. 

    (Or; Oruggio does some investigating and scheming of his own and sets out to save his husband from himself)

    Summary

    "None of Olruggio's lessons had prepared him for the horrors of having to endure multiple uncomfortable conversations about his relationship to Qifrey. He wasn’t sure the library had any books on what to do when you semi-romantically swapped tassels with your best friend anyway."

    It started with a simple question: What's the nature of their professors' relationship? To say it snowballed from there would be a gross understatement. The answer is much more complex than the girls were anticipating.

    Summary

    He thinks he might be the only person who notices when Megumi goes soft at the edges. When the line of his shoulders drops and he stops performing whatever version of himself he thinks other people need. Yuji doesn't know when he was given access to that, exactly. He's not sure Megumi even knows he gave it.

    He wants to keep it, is the thing. Really badly.

    Summary

    What might it look like if Will's memories returned before James's?
    (okay there is now an unnecessary second chapter which is quite a bit different to chap 1 in terms of tone and style but that's okay)

    -

    “Did you know, ‘Anharion’ wasn’t always your name?” Will says, as he traces his fingers along the hollow of James’s cheekbone, ignoring the way those lovely blue eyes glare at him. “It comes from the word an’haren—from your mother’s homeland, if I recall correctly—meaning ‘turned’. We both liked the sound of it, do you remember? You liked how my accent twisted the vowels, shortened them.” A puff of laughter leaves his lips at the old memory. “I thought the definition never suited you, for none of it was exactly your own fault. But then again...”

    He moves to slip two fingers between soft lips.

    “Given that you volunteered to follow me a second time, perhaps the name is appropriate after all.”

    Summary

    He sounds so much like himself. Will wants to believe it, wants every story about the collar to be wrong so badly.

    But –

    "Tell me who I am."

    James tilts his head in curiosity, but complies.

    "You are Will Kempen."

    "Who else?"

    "Sarcean, the Dark King."

    Will closes his eyes and inhales a shaky breath, once again swallowing the scream stuck in his throat.

    "Don’t you mind at all?"

    "Why would I?"

    Because this is what you've always been afraid of. This is why your family cast you out and Sinclair took you in. They made you believe that all you would ever amount to was betraying people for Him. For me. But then you found out it was all a lie and for the first time in your life, you were free to choose your future. Until now.
    __

    If there is a way to remove the collar, Will is going to find it.

    Summary

    "Will you dance with me, General?"

    The question was posed so softly that Anharion nearly missed it, and for a moment, he wondered if he imagined it. But Sarcean's gaze was focused so intently on him that he knew it not to be so. He was waiting for an answer.

    "I beg your pardon?" Anharion took another step back, instinctive. "I believe that constitutes as—"

    Improper. But did it? The Sun King gave him leave to dance, so long as he left it at that. But Anharion suspected his permission extended to every person in the Sun Room, save for the man he currently spoke to. The only man he had interest in speaking to.

    The Sun King hosts a masquerade to celebrate his engagement to the Lady and to honor his Sun General.

    Summary

    Sirius Black’s smirk is the first thing he notices. He’s gotten more confident since the last time they spoke, or maybe he’s a better actor than Remus gave him credit for.

    “Feeling alright, Lupin? You look…” Black looks him up and down, bold eyebrows quirking up on his forehead, “Unwell…”

    “Fine,” Remus pushes away from the wall and busies himself washing his hands. Sirius steps up to the sink next to him, watching him through the mirror. 

    “Everyone loses,” Sirius says. “I mean… Not us, but you won’t be the only ones to lose your first preseason game.”

    “Fuck off,” Remus rolls his eyes and shakes water off of his hands.

    “Sorry,” Sirius grins. “Didn’t think you’d be so sensitive.”

    Or, the Heated Rivalry AU of my dreams.
