    Summary

    (Author's Preferred Text)

    The fighting is finally over, but peace is its own kind of battle.

    Catra knows that a reckoning is coming, and she deserves it. She ruined the lives of most of the members of the Princess Alliance in one way or another, so they’re definitely going to lock her in prison and throw away the key. Right?

    Adora doesn’t think she’s ever truly known peace, but with Catra by her side nothing really seems all that scary anymore. She isn’t even worried about where She-Ra fits into an Etheria that isn’t at war, or how she can make herself useful. Definitely not.

    While carefully navigating their new relationship, Catra and Adora find something lost and forgotten deep underground in an ancient First Ones ruin. The revelations that follow have implications not just for Catra, but for all Etheria.

    But distractions have consequences. Something evil stirs in the depths where no-one dares venture, unnoticed and unchecked, that has other plans for She-Ra and her allies.

    A story about love, purpose, and the sacrifices they demand.

    Summary

    Caleb moves closer into his space and holds his shivering arms tightly, and rubs some warmth into his shoulders. “Essek, you can feel it, can’t you?”
    Caleb noticed it as he left the cottage, once he consciously felt for the sensation. Or rather, a lack thereof. Typically, magic rushes around him like the wind itself, or an ambient scent, or music. It appeals to a different and entirely unnamable sense though, of course. He can feel it, touch it, and manipulate it. It is so constant that it becomes subconscious and beyond notice.
    “You can feel it, Essek. It is gone.”

    Peace is a precious thing, and a fragile thing too. When the unexpected finally strikes Essek's delicate new life, he and Caleb are left adrift and alone and very, very, vulnerable. What are two wizards without magic to do?

    Summary

    Something was wrong, Draco had been smoking since he was 13, a nasty habit he'd picked up from his mother when they took their trips to France. Blaise had grown to find the smell almost as comforting as the rest of Draco, if only in familiarity.

    Draco had smoked at least once a day for years, where was the smell of cigarettes?

    ----------

    Or: Though every Slytherin knew the importance of plausible deniability, that didn’t mean they had to like it.

    Summary

    [the_shadowhand]
    I would be willing to help you come up with ideas, if you want, so long as you’re willing to teach me your ways with dirty talk.
    It’s… hard for me, I suppose. I never know what to say, let alone with the presence you have.

    [catsire]
    Why Herr Shadowhand, are you flirting?

    [the_shadowhand]
    Not intentionally. More… admiring a skill you have that I lack.

    Caleb is not disappointed. He’s not disappointed when they meet and The Shadowhand has the same casual fake flirty tone as his text. He’s not disappointed when they end up filming together, his feelings most definitely not returned. Caleb can live with the heat of his fixation on the other man as they, somehow, become friends beyond their work. He can handle himself just fine.

    It doesn’t matter that The Shadowhand is gorgeous and brilliant besides. He likes Caleb well enough and there could be hope, if Caleb wasn’t such a fucking mess. They can be friends, and coworkers of a strange sort. It’s fine.

     

    It’s fine.

     

    Until it’s not.
