    Summary

    She grins.
    "Don't worry 'bout me, though. Put those fingers to good use, Olly. Just as you've been wanting to all day."

    "If ya say so."

    That mischievous glint returns to his eyes. He swipes the pad of his thumb along where she's soaking the leather of his glove, clearly all too happy to oblige. The too-light brush of his fingers, coupled with those slow, deliberate strokes along her seam, is a novel torture almost too much to bear.

    -

    (Or: the one in which Olruggio gets real nasty when he needs to blow off some steam before Silver Eve.)

    Summary

    [REWRITTEN]

    Around him, the world is a blur. A crudely painted landscape, the lights hanging overhead almost blinding, the rise and fall of voices not helping the dull ache in his temples in the least.

    He doesn't know why he's here to begin with. And on a Saturday evening at that, halfway through his second glass of plum brandy at a table in the back.

    Olruggio grips the handle tight, the chill and solid heft of the glass grounding him. Wherever he is, sure as hell can't be half as bad as the bloody prison that's his own mind.

     -

    (Or: the obligatory post-ch40 fic in which Olly has hella feelings to work through.)

    Summary

    For the past two weeks, painful reminders of that night have seemed to be everywhere.

    First, there are the fleeting looks of quiet concern Easthies sends his way when the others’ backs are turned. Eas doesn’t know what happened - nobody will. However, he seems to know Utowin inside out. Seems to know something's not right.

    Then, there is the numbness overtaking him when he least expects it, the silence greeting him when he visits in the evenings.

    And, most of all, the son of the young couple he often spots while making his rounds - a boy with hair the same flaming red as his own, a year old at most.

    -

    (Or: in which Utowin grapples with a sudden yet devastating loss and questions his ability to cope.)

    Summary

    In the semi-darkness, he can make out the smooth curve of one cheek, the thoughtful set to her mouth. She still watches him with ill-disguised interest, but it is beyond him to bother about what sort.

    Whatever - or whoever - she’s here for seems to be forgotten.

    (Or: the one in which Bard meets a Reaper and starts to put two and two together regarding the supernatural.)

    Summary

    Once his kind left their old lives behind, the concept of mortality all but evaded them - and William was no exception.

    For that matter, neither was Ludger.

    Whenever he joked about cashing in his chips - as he called it - again, William fought the urge to roll his eyes. Those who thought they were about to die laughed at anything. And so did those who knew that they wouldn’t. That they couldn’t.

    Yet if Ludger had foreseen this, he would’ve bitten back his last quip about meeting his end a second time.

    Summary

    He'd then recalled the oldest known adhesive, one made from birch bark by Neanderthals. The mix of lime, volcanic ash, and sand used by the Greeks and Romans.

    And now, there was… this.

    Summary

    The sight of Undertaker before him on his irreverent knees, ready to give him what he desired, would never fail to be Sebastian's very undoing.

    And at the foot of the parlour’s staircase, all too visible?
    Even better.

    Summary

    Sebastian had studied Undertaker with a little too much care. More care than he’d like to admit.

    Granted, even his kind had their… needs. Needs he wasn’t able to fulfil adequately in his current form. Although weaker in intensity than they’d be had he assumed another shape, they still needed tending to. And the sight of a man this arresting didn’t help matters in the least.

    Perhaps that was why he’d been so drawn to him.
    Nothing more, nothing less.

    Summary

    “Thank you, Herr Krantz,” she says, giving him her largest, most depraved grin as he meets her gaze again.
    Two can play at this game - and the outcome is always very well worth it.

    Summary

    To enrapture the woman he covets, a man seldom needs more than his words and his touch.

    Even after what seems like an eternity since he last had a lover, that is something Othello still remembers.

    The supernatural is indeed far from a myth, but his tongue and these trusty hands were the only witchcraft he used.

    Summary

    Half a decade later, William finds himself face-to-face with an old ally yet again.

    Or, as he could also say, an old friend.

    If only the word did not feel so foreign upon his tongue.

    Summary

    William T. Spears has already placed his order, but he is no longer hungry.

    However, things change when he lays eyes upon stupendously sexy pizza delivery man Sebastian Michaelis.
    The infernal fiend's presence renews his appetite, but in an entirely different sense altogether.

    He deems himself above dallying with demons, but a member of hell's gentry itself will be hard to resist.

    [This is NOT serious. In the least.]

    Summary

    Given what William had to endure in the afterlife, he bloody well deserved some reprieve.

    However, peace was something he would never have with thoughts of Ronald tormenting him.

    Ciel Phantomhive's elder sister Cecilia is still recovering from her breakup with Claude Faustus - but can a certain emo-haired demon butler help mend her broken heart?
