    Summary

    Caleb should go back inside.

    Caleb should stand up, go back inside, and forget that he saw anything curled up in the filthy alleyway behind his building. Stay out of trouble. Things die all the time.

    When he lays two fingers at the vampire’s neck, its skin is chill as the wet cobblestones. He can just feel the tiny rise and fall of its ribcage.

    Damnit.

    (It's a Shadowgast modern-with-magic vampire!AU)

    Summary

    “Indeed. You’re lucky Alia saw something in you,” Evrard comments. “I do apologize for the distrust initially. You understand.”

    “Of course, not the first time someone’s attempted to murder me,” Arthur jokes lightly, but it trails off into a cough.

    John winces internally, this was almost worse than dealing with Yorick's interjections. Arthur, be careful.

    “I’m sorry?” Evrard asks, confused.

    Arthur continues, voice dipping into humor once more, “Honestly of all the attempts it was one of the more survivable. Just dropped down a trapdoor, not even gutted or shot. Hell, I’ve gotten closer to getting the job done than you did.”

     

    For fucks sake.

    Summary

    Essek Thelyss comes to Soltryce to deliver guest lectures and, on the side, cultivate the brand new Archmage of Domestic Protections. He’s hoping that Caleb Widogast will oblige him by picking up his predecessor’s interest in conspiring to steal Luxon beacons, after so rudely murdering Da’leth mere weeks before the culmination of their schemes.

    Essek is prepared for espionage. He is not prepared to find a love that will change the course of his life.
