    Summary

    Nathaniel Wesninski had never thought he’d ever end up on a greyhound bus to Palmetto with a toddler cradled to his chest, trying to process the end of his mobster life and starting all over as a 20 year-old single dad. Creating a new life as trucker Neil Josten, he finds a new home and family in his colleagues and quirky small town inhabitants, especially growing fond of the Foxhole Diner’s grumpy owner Andrew Minyard. But what happens if Andrew finds out about his past? Will Andrew really commit his life to the son of a serial killer with a toddler?

    Andrew Minyard never expected much of his life and found much more in David Wymack and his lot in Palmetto. His diner means working all day and meeting all kinds of people, but it’s his and he wouldn’t want it any different. Not as long as he can pay for his twin’s study. As one day Neil Josten stumbles into his diner for an interview for a job at Wymack’s transportation company, Andrew senses that his life will change in ways he’s never anticipated.

    Summary

    There’s a new god in the pantheon; Andrew remembers hearing about the scandal a while back, the newest Demeter having a child with the current Zeus and then going on the run, child in tow. They call him Persephone, the god of springtime and new life, the antithesis of Andrew's realm. It would be ludicrous of Persephone to ever interact with Andrew at all.

    If only someone told Persephone that.

    --

    “Hades, right?” Persephone asks.

    “Andrew,” Andrew responds, and Persephone hums.

    “Nice to meet you, Andrew. I’m Neil,” Neil responds. Andrew cuts a look sideways to see Neil watching him, something assessing in his gaze. Andrew nods in response. “I have to say, you’re not nearly as scary as everyone says you are,” Neil continues.

    “You barely know me. Give it time,” Andrew says, because the rumors don’t exaggerate. People fear him for good reason.

    “I’d like to, I think,” Neil says. Andrew quirks an eyebrow at him. “Know you,” Neil clarifies. Before Andrew can think of a response, Neil’s head turns. “I have to go. Zeus called for me, and he’ll notice if I’m missing. Thanks for the cigarette.”

    Summary

    Death is presented with an interesting challenge - to live among the humans whom he finds so confusing for a short time. Normally he wouldn't consider such a thing, content to spend his days constantly wandering around while doing his job (and avoiding his father, Destruction), but this time, he's found one human in particular to be of interest so he decides to give it a try, to stay in one place for at least a few days. What can go wrong?

    Only a Fury and a Virtue (or three) are determined to 'help' him out, for reasons of their own, and nothing is ever simple when so many powers that be start plotting. Death may very well regret giving in to his curiosity, along with the humans around him.

    Basically, my take on the Sandman universe with TFC characters.

    Summary

    Neil leaned forward, lowering his voice this time. "I think I'm homophobic."

    "Yeah, buddy, I heard you. Me and the rest of campus." Matt was smiling at him like usual, but this time it was more reluctant. "Do you want to expand on that?"

    "No."

    --

    After walking in on his roommate, Andrew Minyard, kissing a guy, Neil is convinced that he must be homophobic.

    He doesn't even stop to consider that perhaps he is instead jealous, and also a massive idiot.

    Summary

    “If you’re really sure,” he starts, and Neil nods along. “I could do it.”
    “Uh,” Neil says, and suddenly his thin sweats and shirt feel far too hot. “What?”
    “If you want,” Andrew says, looking Neil straight in the eyes, determination burning Neil up inside. “I could help.”
    “You would—,” Neil says and Andrew doesn’t even wait for him to finish before nodding. “Why?”
    “You don’t want your first time to be with some frat boy. Trust me, you don’t,” Andrew says. “If you decide sex isn’t for you, you don’t want that to be your only experience. You need someone who’s good.”
    Neil swallows heavily. “And that’s… you?”

    Summary

    For Andrew college is a means to an end. There is no real need to try too hard or get too attached to his daily activities but Renee meets with him once a week for lunch, Kevin shows up and bothers him whenever he has a chance, his cryptid roommate leaves him strange post-it notes, and a red-headed bartender, with a thing for street art, may or may not be flirting. Andrew wanted nothing until he decides that he kind of wanted something.

    Or the College AU where Andrew is studying journalism, Kevin is an academia nerd, the foxes are constantly drunk, and Andrew's roommate is a cryptid.

    Summary

    The world as they knew it ended in ice and snow, sparing only the strong and clever. What's left has been forged through a bloody war for territory - shifter against shifter. The battles have mostly been fought, but they're not done yet - there are lingering threats to address and a New World to build.

    But really, Andrew just wants more than a few stolen moments with Neil and time to figure out what this really means.

    Summary

    In which Andrew gets a job as a bouncer in the same club where Neil strips.

    He has a rule — a firm one, one he thinks is the only reason he stays sane despite everything — which is to touch Neil as little as possible. It's a self-imposed torture. It’s his last line of defense.

    -

    Or: He fucking breaks it.

    Summary

    Andrew should've taken more care with hiding the hickeys littering his neck. The hoodie he's sporting isn't doing much, collar stretched and warped from one too many washes, one too many instances of Andrew himself pulling at it while it was keeping someone else warm. Jealous of fabric, of the warmth it provided, Andrew thought he could do a better job at heating up the wearer's skin.

    So now the neckline was fucked, and the hoodie belonged to him, a trophy he swore he'd never display.

    Nick bobs like a fish until the words finally spill out. He's looking at Andrew's neck, not his face. "Again? Does your boyfriend not get tired?"

    Andrew dates his college's star athlete. No, he won't tell anyone about it.

    His Royal Highness, Crown Prince Nathaniel of Baltimore has been tasked with rescuing the shy Princess of Palmetto from a dragon as part of a marriage ritual as old as time.

    The only problem? That’s definitely not a princess waiting for him in a dingy cave in the mountainside.

    Summary

    Andrew's nights bleed into one another, a constant back and forth of making potions and supplying them to desperate clubgoers.

    Every night, he has to see his customers find love and companionship using his potions, all the while the hole in his heart grows so big he struggles to keep denying it.

    But then he crosses paths with it.

    A bunny. Or, a ratty, mop of a bunny.
