    Summary

    1999, UK boarding school: Alec Trevelyan, seventeen, football captain, fluent in French, Russian and subtle intimidation – is the last person who wants a new roommate.
    Dominique “Q” Harcourt, fifteen, prodigy, allergic to half the planet – is the last person the school should put in Alec’s room. And yet.
    2014, Romania: Alec Trevelyan, now MI6, kicks in a door in Bucharest and finds Q exactly where he shouldn’t be – mid-theft.
    A maddening ordeal of blind trust, weaponised bureaucracy and choosing each other on purpose.

    [September prompt: high school sweethearts]

    Summary

    As of April 2016, The database that stores works on A03 does not allow emoji. If you try to add an emoji it will end your story there. Any words after the emoji? Poof. Gone. This is a known, if poorly advertised, issue with the archive.

    There are some workarounds; you can find them in: How to Make iOS Text messages on A03. But here? Here is for ALL THE EMOJI*.

    10 chapters of emoji tables, each with the HTML for putting the emoji into your work and the CSS for putting it into your workskin. Copy-Paste baby. Copy-Paste.

    *Does not contain the 2016 Unicode release. You'll have to come up with the code for pickle yourselves.

    (Note, because this is 10 chapters of emoji tables, here is a link to the Index Tables (chapter 1) to speed up load times and reduce confusion if you have preferences set to "entire work.")

    Summary

    This is a union of two souls left stranded in a world they'll never really belong in, left bereft and friendless. They make do with what they have, this bastardisation of unity between pure, raw holiness and unadulterated, dark damnation.
