    Summary

    Joe and Nile have been raised by witches. They both want something different out of life and out of love -- namely, Nile wants to experience the magic of everything, and Joe wants to use his magic to protect himself from the fallout of passion that can go wrong. But one day when Nile brings trouble home with her in the form of a dead man, and a detective named Nicolo who comes looking for answers, Joe is forced to confront everything he's spent his entire life trying to avoid.

    Summary

    In the end, she has to hand it to him— he'd always been an expert in taking her by surprise, and it would appear that he's chosen not to shake the habit even in death.

    "Rey Skywalker?" There's a vaguely sardonic twist to the corner of his mouth. "Does that make you my cousin now?"

    "It seemed like a fitting tribute," she says in wooden tones. Be it dream or vision, she might as well play along— draw this out until reality comes crashing back. Who knows when he'll come to her again as solid and as vibrant as this?

    "I see." Suddenly he's leaning into her, their faces so close together. "Tell me," he murmurs, his lips almost brushing against hers, "have you ever heard of the term kissing cousins?"

    She registers the smell of alcohol on his breath at the same time that his eyes flutter shut and he slumps face-down into her lap, snoring softly. You're alive, is all she can think at first, staring down at his head of lush black hair.

    Ben Solo is alive.

    Alive and very, very drunk.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    The Star Wars post-TROS fix it we all deserve -- with the pacing, action, and lived-in detail of the best SW films and the sweetness and longing of the best of diasterisms. This story is DAMN WONDERFUL.

    Summary

    "I don't know," Rey murmurs. "I think home is still quite a ways off for him."

    ---

    Kylo Ren faces his sentence at the hands of the Resistance: a year of off-world solitary confinement, no communication with the outside world.

    But it's never that easy to leave old wounds behind.

    Or such deeply-forged bonds.

    Summary

    While the dwindling Rebellion starves, awaiting their chance to attack a First Order supply vessel, Rey is trying to keep busy repairing the lightsaber. As luck would have it, her Force-bonded rival Kylo Ren is knowledgeable on the subject and keen to help, but he is also very... distracting. Written as a gift for KKetura for the Reylo Valentine's Exchange - hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

    Summary

    “They’ll treat you fairly. They have to, after everything.”

    “I don’t particularly want to discuss it now. I was trying to enjoy this night, you might recall.”

    “Well, the party’s back there,” she quips, downright relieved to hear the ever-present dryness back in his voice in place of the utterly bleak defeat of just a moment before. “Not sure how you missed it.”

    “You seem to have a very different definition of the word enjoy than I do.”

    -

    The war is over, Snoke dead at Rey and Kylo's hands. The two of them find themselves feeling a bit out of place as the Resistance celebrates, and decide that the answer is a bit of good old fashioned Corellian whiskey. Enjoyed responsibly, of course. And in private.

    “I think…” He closes his eyes, then opens them—but doesn’t meet Rey’s gaze, choosing instead to look down at his hands. “I think I can make it good. For you.”

    In which aliens make them do it, and Ben and Rey are mostly okay with it.

    Summary

    “I need hardly say that the winter bake-off sales are a huge hit with the staff and parents alike, and that, if done well, the proceeds can be a great benefit to the winning department. As the competitors for the STEM team this year you two—“

    “You gotta be joking!” Porthos’ indignant outburst has him sitting forward in his chair now, hands gripping the wooden arms.

    Athos, meanwhile seems to have resigned himself to being a part of it, but has astutely seized on the collaborative grenade she just dropped on them, “Ninon, this is not a team sport! No!”

    Summary

    ** dude you guys it's all written. just editing and buffing, expect both chapters to be up by the end of August**

    The monk relays Porthos’ words to the wounded knight. The crusader looks up at Porthos, and there are those eyes again. Porthos understands enough to make out his reply. “So instead we should leave, because if I live today I can die nobly in battle some other day?”

    Porthos flashes them both a grin; he blames the exhilaration of battle. “Yes,” he says. “Well put.”

    Wheeling his horse around, Porthos takes off as fast as he dares through the trees, heading back to his commanders. He doesn’t stay to see if the two Franks make it out; he has done what he can for them, their fates are out of his hands. He will not think about them again.

    Summary

    "Just say something," Athos sighed.

    "I'm thinking!" Aramis protested. "I've done a lot of things, okay, I'm having a hard time coming up with a good one."

    This was rapidly turning into simultaneously one of the best and worst games of Never Have I Ever he'd ever played. Best, because he was learning oh-so-many terrible, horrible, wonderful things his friends had done.

    Worst, because he was losing badly.

    Summary

    Porthos is trying not to burn pasta sauce when he hears his laptop dinging in the living room. He jerks in surprise, and sauce slops over the side of the pan onto the burner. Right away, it sizzles and starts to smoke, but Porthos barely notices. His heart's somewhere up in his throat. Only one person would be Skyping him unannounced at nine at night, and that would be someone nine and a half hours ahead of him with an unpredictable schedule.

    Anne’s feline smile and grace. His pulse had heaved the moment he set eyes on her across the room for the first time, and it never stopped heaving at the mere sight of her, the sound of her voice, the whiff of her perfume. He was driven to her with every desperate throb of his blood.

    “That’s a night-out in Berlin for you,” Athos says. He invites d’Artagnan in with a gesture and walks back to the living room, past the door that has fallen shut behind Porthos and Aramis. “How did that happen? Aramis never gets like this. Did he take drugs?”

    This is 100% inspired by Needs Must, my fave Suits fic, my fave BDSM fic, and a work of genius. A few weeks ago I discovered other people were applying the trope to their OTPs and I decided Dalaric needed it too, so here it is.

    Summary

    Certainly Aramis saw none of the potential disaster because his face was still turned to the sky, laughing, when the bucket of wash water hit the window casement, upended itself and spilled its contents down on top of him.

    Now, in the moment after the splash, there is no noise at all. There is only the stunned silence of the rest of them as they take in the sight of Aramis, soaked to the skin.

    Summary

    They will sleep, then. Limbs wrapped tight some nights, only touching at their fingers on others. When they wake Porthos will make coffee and Aramis will grumble until his second cup and neither of them will say what is always on their minds; that they are lucky, lucky, lucky.

    But this is not that story. Not yet. This is the story of everything that comes before.
