    Summary

    Charlie Spring has been a physical therapist for the Leeds Badgers professional rugby team for two years. At the start of his third season, Nick Nelson is traded to the Badgers and both Nick and Charlie's worlds are turned upside down.

    Here it is, the Heartstopper x Sweater Weather crossover nobody but me clamored for! You do not need to read SW to read this fic. However, if you HAVEN'T read lumosinlove’s Sweater Weather (and Coast to Coast, and, well, everything), you absolutely should, because it is a remarkable piece of writing (as well as its own standalone AU).

    There will be parallels and divergences from both Heartstopper and Sweater Weather in this story.

    Do I know a ton about rugby? Nope! Do I live in England? I sure don't. Will I get a lot of things just wrong enough to be annoying? Definitely! Will there be science facts at the end of each chapter? I can’t help it. Enjoy the ride.

    Summary

    From the Scots word for ‘seal’, a selkie was a seal who could take on human form. A common element in all the selkie-folk tales, and perhaps the most important, is that in order to shapeshift, they had to cast off their sealskins. Within these magical skins lay the power to return to seal form, and therefore the sea. If this sealskin was lost, or stolen, the creature was doomed to remain in human form until it could be recovered. The most common theme in selkie folklore is one in which a cunning young man acquires, either by trickery or theft, a selkie’s sealskin. This prevents her from returning to the sea, leaving the selkie with no choice but to marry her captor.

    —🌊—

    In which Nick, a Scottish fisherman, develops an all-consuming crush on Ben Hope’s beautiful and mysterious new boyfriend, Charlie.

    Summary

    A Holiday somewhere tropical.

    If you are easily offended, read the tags.

    This is a crack fic.

    If you want a surprise don't read the tags.

    This is Absurdism inspired but complete AU not a spin-off. You won't have to have read it for this to make sense (as much as this can make sense) but do go read it if you haven't for some unfathomable reason.

    ☀

    Nick: I love my boyfriend.
    Not everyone gets us, but I don’t care…
    much
    We are happy…
    mostly

    David: My brother’s boyfriend is an idiot.

    Tori: My brother’s boyfriend is a bit of a dick.

    Olly: My brother and sister need to get a life.

    Charlie: My brother is a dick.

    Michael: I love my boyfriend…
    But you’re so pretty.

    Summary

    London, 1994. Thirty-four year old David Nelson works at the brand new Canary Wharf on the Isle of Dogs. Twenty-one year old student Olly Spring serves drinks at a Docklands pub. They don't know each other – but they're about to. When they're alone, sparks fly from more than their Marlboro Lites. It's messy, it's hot, and strictly confidential. Meanwhile, their siblings are hardly doing a better job in their own love lives…

    Clear the Limehouse Fog and follow each twist of the Thames: The Distance Between Us is an angsty 90s Absurdism AU.

    Summary

    Charlie and Nick grew up a few towns away from each other and meet in their thirties….during the events leading up to their brothers’ wedding. To each other. That’s right - Hello Dolly!

    The focus of this story is the relationship between Nick and Charlie, but I try to treat the Dolly relationship respectfully (even when Nick and Charlie do not).
