    Summary

    “There’s a new student today,” Nikandros says.

    “For my homeroom?” Damen asks.

    The kid who follows Nik in looks old enough to be a senior, and Damen’s first thought is sympathy for the kid having to transfer in the middle of his last year of school, then he gets a look at his face and nearly chokes on his own spit.

    It’s Laurent.

    Laurent, the amazing fuck from last night. The amazing fuck that Damen met a bar. The amazing fuck whose ass Damen ate less than twelve hours ago and made coffee for this very morning is standing in his classroom, wearing worn jeans and a band t-shirt and holding one of those brightly colored Swedish backpacks that half the kids seem to have.

     

    Fuck.

    Summary

    When Alec's family arranges for a month-long vacation he can't imagine spending that much time away from Magnus, his good friend (with benefits) (who he is definitely not falling in love with) from school.

    But if Izzy can invite her boyfriend she only met a month ago, surely Alec could invite his boyfriend he never got around to mentioning yet, right?

    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

    Neil had gotten used to quick turnarounds, what with the suddenness that inmate firefighting often had. He’d learned to go where he was directed, when he was directed. But this was a different kind of toughness, the looks on the rest of the crew’s faces as they loaded up their gear. It wasn’t grim, or determined; they knew what they were heading for, and they were ready for it.

    They were excited for it.

    He wondered, briefly, why he was here. This was everything he’d sworn never to do. He didn’t love fire, not like these people did, and he didn’t love the land, not like they did. But he glanced around and saw them all talking and laughing, and him on the outside, and he thought, that. They were all pretty asshole-ish people. But for some reason all of them, even Andrew-Minyard-his-maybe-psycho-roommate, wanted to be here. Wanted to do this together. Wanted to be part of this family.

    Neil wanted that with a bone-deep ache, so much it hurt.
