    Summary

    Now the master of the Troupe, the new Grimm returns to Hallownest on a mission.
    ~
    “Do not disturb the darkness,” the White Lady warned, “that was the mistake my wyrm made. At last, that great, dark sea is at rest, and I do not wish to change that. I could never stand to look at it. Even in the days before the fall, I refused to accompany my love to that place, for I did not trust myself. The void sea calls to us all. Do not think beings like you and I above its pull, little nightmare.”

    Summary

    The king of Melini is in want of a wife. Good news! His trusted advisor—and boyfriend—has some great candidates in mind. If only he didn't have so much baggage with the one the king's most interested in.

    When Rin arrives at the palace to meet Laios at Kabru’s request, he has to grapple with the big feelings that come along with her return to his side—some of them more complicated than others, like Kabru's desire to be the one in her position. Can they really make such a tangled web of relationships work while maintaining the appearance of the status quo? And what other things will change now that Rin is a part of their lives?

    An expansive post-canon fic about building trust, identities, a country, and a family.

    Summary

    Kabru closes his eyes. (Whether he rolls them once they are closed is nobody’s business.) “If it be your will, my liege."
    The King, with all the grace and poise of a minotaur at a glassblowing festival, says, “But am I allowed?” He practically whines.

    Kabru helps his king, tries not to take over the kingdom, and falls in love.

    Summary

    “I told you I didn’t want to hurt you. Did you want to hurt me?” his tone was open, not a trace of accusation.

    Kabru swallowed the knee-jerk lie that formed in his throat. It burned on the way down.

    “A little,” he confessed, and it felt like falling.

    (Kabru is paranoid Laios views him as a monster, and has a very complicated way of confronting it.)

    Summary

    “Perhaps you’re worth the trouble after all,” Peggy tells Bucky, and he grins. They’ve developed a cautious, teasing relationship. Steve is absurdly grateful that they tolerate each other at all. He fantasizes, sometimes, that they might even like each other in the same way that he likes—

    “God, Sergeant Barnes, if this place has hot water, I’ll kiss you.”
