    Summary

    "Anne had thought herself quite finished with wanting, but this want, once stumbled upon, would not quietly lay itself down in the grave with the others."

    Eight years changes a person, but not beyond all recognition. Fred Wentworth and Anne Elliot, years after a final break, find that they are more alike, in some respects, than they thought before.

    Summary

    A chance encounter with a rugged carpenter at eleven years of age leaves Miss Margaret Hale with a peculiar sense of male beauty. This feeling lies dormant until she sees the tall, angry Master of Marlborough Mills crawl out from under a broken loom amidst the snowy cotton fluff floating above his workroom floor.

    Mr. Thornton, however, having been the constant objective of every unwed female in Milton society since ascending to ownership of his own mill, is unimpressed with what he feels are the blatant machinations of a determined flirt.

    As her feelings for him grow, so does his distaste...

    In which I rewrite the entirety of The House in the Cerulean Sea from Arthur's perspective. 👀

    He sighed and tossed the letter lightly to his desk, leaning on his elbows and rubbing his eyes. "They're sending a caseworker."

    Summary

    Draco's life after the war is everything he wanted it to be: it's simple, and quiet, and predictable, and safe. But when a mysterious curse shatters the peace he'd worked so hard to build, there's only one person he can trust to help him. After all, Harry Potter has saved his life before. Now Draco has to believe that Potter will be able to do it one more time. (A remix of If the Sun Goes Black by pasdexcuses)

    Summary

    When Damen's a/c breaks right before an important dinner party, he finds the only technician willing to help him fix it.

    Unfortunately, that technician is Laurent.


    “Hey,” Damen says, before he even fully opens the door, “thanks for–fuck.

    He really didn't mean to say that; never would have, even, if he hadn’t been sitting in a sweltering apartment for the last twelve hours and been on the phone with intractable, obstinate technicians for half of that. If his brain hadn’t been boiling, he wouldn’t have. If he didn’t have this terrible dinner party to worry about, he wouldn’t have. If the man standing on the other side of the door wasn’t the most beautiful person he’d ever seen in his entire life, he definitely wouldn’t have.

    But he did.

    And the most beautiful (gorgeous, stunning, exquisite, annoyed, blond) person he’s ever seen in his entire life doesn’t seem too impressed by it.

    “Believe me, sweetheart, if I had fucked you you’d be saying a lot nicer things than ‘thanks’,” the man says, brushing past him with enough confidence to make Damen think he had invited him in and hadn't just been standing there stupidly, dumbstruck.
