    Summary

    As the Thirty Years' war inches closer to an end, a group of influential people gathers at a monastery deep in the Bavarian forest: The future of Europe will be shaped by them.

    Father Vincent Benítez finds himself embroiled in politics and scheming against his own will. Navigating a war-torn Europe is hard enough; navigating his own heart is even harder as he gets to know these people - especially an exiled English priest.

    A lifetime at war and an impending peace: it's 1648, Vincent has a secret and a papal mandate. His heart ignores both of those facts.

    Summary

    It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.

    Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

    Summary

    Vincent Benítez considers himself an undemanding and humble man. Terms like envy, jealousy, and possessiveness are foreign concepts to him. Every rule, however, needs an exception. And that exception is Thomas Lawrence, Dean of the College of Cardinals and recently appointed Papal Advisor.

    Or: Thomas has a major glow-up after entering a relationship with Vincent. Unfortunately, Vincent isn't the only one noticing. And even though he'd never doubt his loyalty, he just needs to make sure that Thomas is his, and only his.

    Summary

    The Patriarch has always been fascinated by Aldo Bellini. The Liberal Lion, the sly politician, the handsome and intelligent spokesperson for everything Goffredo stood against. This man was so many things that Tedesco was not, that he admired and despised in equal measure.

    He never thought he would be his undoing as well.

    Summary

    Thomas’ eyes blink open, then fall on Vincent.

    “Vincent,” he murmurs blearily, voice hoarse. Then, he seems to register he's in his own apartment, outside of the Vatican. He rockets onto his elbows. “Vincent! What—”

    Vincent holds up the apartment key. “I let myself in. I hope you don't mind.”

    “Of course not! But—how did you get here?”

    “I walked.”

    “Through Rome?”

    “Well, I didn't walk through Venice.”

    ____

    Thomas and Vincent test the limits of their self-control. (It’s rapidly dwindling, given they have the keys to each other’s apartments.)

    Summary

    Knowing what he knows now, Goffredo thinks he understands why Vincent held him off for so long. It wasn't piety or purity, he thinks, that made Vincent look him in the eyes and say they should honour their vows, it was privacy for this secret. Tedesco should hate it, find it sacreligious, but he has no space to judge when he is the one who desires another - not just another man, the new pope - carnally.

    Summary

    “I wouldn’t call it a crush,” he begins, bracing himself for the storm. Be calm, he tells himself. God is with you.

    “You wouldn’t?” Lawrence squeaks. His eyes are wide, searching. Vincent would spare a thought for his beauty, if he had any to spare in the first place.

    “No.” Vincent shakes his head and sets his teacup down. “I would say that I am in love with you.”

     

     

    Or, a companion fic to the love I’m given, from Vincent’s POV.

    Summary

    Thomas knew he should feel some lingering flicker of shame: lying naked on the wide bed with two men—let alone these men—sandwiched tightly between their chests. But all he could find inside himself was joy. 

    Or, Vincent and Aldo unionize to get Thomas to experience some pleasure for once in his life.

    Summary

    Thomas discovers he has a thing for Vincent giving people the Innocentius XIV treatment to put them into their place. Vincent doesn't mind giving him a very personal version of that treatment.

    Summary

    Aldo Bellini got everything he wanted - the traditionalists defeated, a liberal other than himself on the papal throne, his job back, and Thomas Lawrence staying in the Vatican. So why do all his wins taste so much like losses anyway?

    Goffredo Tedesco is grieving - his brother, his papal ambitions, the certainty of his convictions, and his foolish hopes for love. So why does their unexpected pontiff of all people make him want to embrace this daunting new era anyway?

    The tides of change are sweeping through the church and their lives, and there’s no choice but to sink or swim.

    Summary

    Harrenhal wasn’t a safe place. It wasn’t safe for a young girl, for a girl from a rivaling noble house, disguised as a commoner even less. In fact, it wasn't safe for anyone. Whilst the Lord of Harrenhal drank sweet wine from an ornate cup, everyone else drank a far more bitter draught.

    The story of Arya Stark, now cupbearer to Lord Tywin in Harrenhal. A tale of innocence and intimidation, of little games, unwisely played.

    But then Benítez appears: calm, unknown, dangerously kind.

    He watches him, follows him, judges him... and falls.

    Summary

    Amid scandal and political turmoil, when one of the Vatican’s modern-day holy trinity—the Dean of the College of Cardinals—is (falsely) accused of an unthinkable crime, the relationship the three of them have built begins to fracture. Ergo, what follows is a deluge of pain, mourning layered upon mourning, the slow and ungainly labour of coping. Comfort, too, but hard-won and imperfect, and of course love, not as salvation, but as endurance.

    During his first summer in Rome, Vincent Benítez works himself to the brink of exhaustion trying to fill his new role as Pope. Only reluctantly, he agrees to spend ten days at the papal summer residence in Castel Gandolfo.

Luckily, Thomas is in dire need of a holiday, too, and more than willing to keep him company.
