    Summary

    "Elidibus. What are you doing.”

    Elidibus glances up at him from under his hood, and they’re so close that Lahabrea can actually see his eyes, blue and bright, half-lidded beneath a sweep of snowy lashes.

    “Helping you deal with your emotions. Stress relief,” Elidibus murmurs back, the soft of his smile sharpening in a way that curls hot in Lahabrea’s stomach–and then directly south.

    -

    In which Lahabrea’s stress-relieving, no-feelings, casual sex with Elidibus is going exactly as expected—until it’s very much not.

    Summary

    “Signora told me… that you said I’m easily manipulated,” Childe says, his tone mild, almost amused.

    “You are,” Scaramouche says, not knowing what game they’re playing. Childe smiles, the briefest flash of teeth.

    “Are you manipulating me?” He asks, dull eyes attentive. Scaramouche refuses to blink and Childe rolls on top of him, presses his mouth to the soft skin below his collarbone, where Scaramouche’s heart beats double time. “How about now?”

    Summary

    Sidestory after Duet, set post-6.0, spoilers. Vrtra/Estinien.

    "What," Vrtra asked faintly as Estinien lugged the statue into the dining hall, "is that?"

    Estinien took his time in turning the heavy ornament around for display before setting it upon a table, angling it so that it faced Vrtra square-on, beady eyes aimed at the larger dragon in silent demand.

    "A blessing for our shared fecundity together," he answered bluntly. "If I'm to understand correctly."

    Summary

    “You’ve been saving yourself for me,” Enji growls. He can barely recognise his own voice.

    “No,” Hawks protests hazily. “I really had no time when I was training, and then when I went pro –“ He stops when he glances back and sees Enji’s face. His expression shifts, and without a hitch he continues, “Okay, yeah, I have. Figured it was pointless sleeping around because no one else would be able to compare to the real thing. I’d just spend the whole time thinking of you instead, how good your cock would feel filling me up, burning me up from the inside.”

    Endeavor finds out Hawks is a virgin and loses his mind.

    Summary

    “Did I ever tell you,” Hythlodaeus says. “That I could tell from the very color of your soul that we were going to fall in love?”

    “Ridiculous,” Emet-Selch snorts. “I do not doubt your soul-seeing talents, but how could you possibly tell?”

    “Trade secret,” Hythlodaeus grins. “Perhaps, if you ever train your sight to be as good as mine, you’ll be able to see it too. You can even become my disciple, oh most eminent.”

    “And Azem?” Emet-Selch asks, merely rolling his eyes at the comment. “Could you see it in them too?”

    “Naturally,” Hythlodaeus nods. “Azem was born to love us both. To love was the greatest gift we’ve ever received from the star.”

    When Hythlodaeus leads, Emet-Selch always follows.

    Summary

    "Reports on military morale, who commands the legions. Myriad other details, down to my own personal habits. Even a report on when I am most vulnerable, when it would be easiest to slip a dagger between my shoulder blades.”

    Solus’ eyes narrowed once more. “This packet was put together by a member of my own household staff.”

    His voice was low, deadly. “Would you like to know who?”

     

    Being the head of Emperor Solus zos Galvus' household staff is a position of privilege. But it comes with a cost...

    Summary

    Set after 6.0, Vrtra/Estinien, spoilers for MSQ and level 70 DRG quests.

    "The first song I knew came from my sire. A dirge, which became the lullaby that Midgardsormr sang to us in the egg on the long flight between the stars. It is a song I have never forgotten, despite all the ages of mankind which have risen and fallen since."

    "A lullaby?" Distracted away from his assessment of Vrtra's injuries, Estinien smirks at the idea of the greatest of dragons crooning like a doting nursery attendant. "What was it like?"

    Bemused, Vrtra only inclines his head. "Shall I recite it for thee?"

    Summary

    “Wasn’t the First originally Mitron and Loghrif’s assignment?”

    “As I say, time and time again,” Hades groused, “if you want something done right…”

    “… You invite your friend along to watch you do it yourself.” Hythlodaeus covered his laughing mouth. It became harder to cover it all as Hades scowled at him. “Honestly, Hades. Admit it - you just like showing off that when it comes down to it, you still do it best.”

    Summary

    Ex Noctem Nihil was the season’s most ambitious performance, produced by a talented set of playwrights and played out by a set of striking actors whose presence could command any chamber’s full attention. The line before the theater was so long that it wound far around the corner even once the house hit capacity, with those woebegone stragglers too foreseeing to purchase their tickets in advance left to sit out in the cold to hear a stray line or the long-held gasp of the crowd inside.

    Emet-Selch could not empathize.

    Summary

    His expression loses all traces of humanity. “Run along, my dear girl,” he says, dark with warning. “You will find no happiness or love with me in this life.”

    A feeling of shivering horror washes over her like a great bell had been closed over her head and struck with a hammer. 

    “I don’t want happiness,” she says firmly. “I don’t want your love. I only want to be free.”

    Young Solus Galvus somehow forgot all about his long-ago arranged marriage to his fiancée. It can't be because a terrifying, ancient, immortal wizard just took over the boy's body and now plans to conquer the world with it.

    Summary

    Emperor Solus zos Galvus is merely a part that Emet-Selch plays - and while he balances his grief for the past with guilt-ridden hope for a possible future, he needs to put on another performance. One that will result in more pain than he ever realised.
