    Summary

    This is not the story you know.

    There are no chains in this laboratory. No cruelty dressed up as science.

    Victor wakes to find a shadow standing over his bed — eight feet of trembling new life, blinking at the candlelight like a man who has never seen a flame.

    A story about what Frankenstein could have been, if only he had been brave enough to love what he had created.

    Summary

    Death is final, the end of life.

    And yet, Victor Frankenstein had proven the common understanding of that law of nature... flawed.

    When Victor passes away upon the captain's ship, he does not pass on into death, but unto a second chance at his creature's beginning.

    --- Author's Note ---

    This is a fix-it of sorts, but also an exploration of Victor, and I write him like the messy bitch he is so buckle in for unreliable narration, repression and denial, selfish empathy(?), and mommy issues.

    There WILL be The Creature x Victor, and Victor does essentially raise him through the first bit of this fic, so if that squicks you out, get out now or open your mind to ineffable and immutable connections that transcend social concepts of relation, especially when one part of the relationship is only vaguely human.

    I sometimes update with edits or additions so if something is different than you remember from your last read, you're not crazy... I am.

    Summary

    Einar, the new slave assigned to Ketil's farm, begins to take notice of a small, meek boy named Thorfinn. After an altercation with farmers leads to Thorfinn getting seriously injured, it is up to Einar to take care of his friend and ensure it doesn't happen again. But what Einar doesn't realize is that Thorfinn has a past far darker than anything he could have imagined. And perhaps the boy does not deserve to be taken care of at all.

    Basically, allowing Thorfinn to be soft and FINALLY having someone take care of him because he deserves it. Mixed with a bit of angst to make things more interesting ;)

    Summary

    “Vic-tor,” you say. The words don’t seem to want to cooperate; a breath crawls its way out of your lungs and rips its way from your lips in a cough. Your voice vibrates against your throat, rattles behind your teeth.

    “Yes,” he says, lips twisting. “That’s me.”

    “Victor,” you say again. You have no other words. He has not given you any.

    “I know,” Victor remarks, his expression torn. “I’m sorry.”

    In which you are Frankenstein’s creature.

    Summary

    Childless thou art, childless remain...
    Paradise Lost, x, 989

    ***

    What if Victor's obsession with bringing animation to cold flesh stemmed not from a will to defy death, but rather from a need to create life? Not to play God, but to become the one thing he most dearly loved, and what he had so tragically lost: a mother?

    ***

    A very self-indulgent fic that explores the motherly part of Victor - the one that yearns to create and nurture - and what would've been had he taken less after his father as a parent.

    Summary

    What if Victor Frankenstein chose the path of his mother's influence, instead of his father, when it came to his creation? What if instead of the hell of post-partum depression and madness, he felt the glow of love?

    Summary

    Then lightning struck again, rain downpouring against the window as light flashed. And briefly Victor saw it.

    His Creature held the robe snug to his body. He held one end of it against his cheek, near his nose, like he'd been searching for a scent. The other end was stretched downward, the Creature straddling it between his legs.

    Oh. Oh, his sweet boy.

    Relief washed over Victor, knowing he hadn't once again struck fear into his Creature's heart, but rather something else entirely. Victor had half a mind to tell the Creature that he knew precisely what he was doing, that such carnal desires of the flesh were only natural, yet he feared that wouldn't yet soothe the Creature, not now, when he was so vulnerable.

    “My son, what has frightened you?” Victor asked kindly, resting a hand on the Creature's shoulder. Victor's heart broke when, for a moment, the Creature flinched beneath the touch. “Oh, I know. The storm, isn't it?”

    Summary

    The Creature smiled, scanning over Victor's form. He had not seen quite this much of it at once before. Besides recently tending to his wounds, he had only ever beheld Victor's bare chest when he first awoke in the lab. There was a spark of intimacy between them then, a brief moment, when Victor in his delight pressed his ear to the Creature's chest, the two skin-to-skin. The Creature felt, then, an innate instinct to wrap his arms around Victor, who was much smaller than him, in the mere imitation of an embrace.

    He longed for that moment again— sunlight and soft touches and eyes that gazed upon him not with anger, but brimming with tears of pure gladness.

    Presently, however, Victor stirred again. He nuzzled his head against The Creature's hand, his hip arching upward to meet the touch of the other.

    The Creature's heart stuttered. It seemed Victor, in his fevered state, longed for the same thing.
