    Summary

    "Are you cold?" Henry asked.

    Without armor, in hose and gambeson, he was still an imposing figure: tall and broad, hands stained with dirt and blood, jaw stubbornly stiff. His bare feet were a shock of white in the dirt. He held his helm with both hands, embracing the metal into his belly. His hair was damp with sweat. There was another string of bruises on his throat, shaped like two wide thumbs.

    Hans looked away. The tunic around Henry's knee had darkened. Blood was trickling into the dirt.

    Hans kills a man, prepares for a wedding, and tries to do at least one thing right.

    (Or: five times Hans and Henry didn't share a bed, and one time they did.)

    Summary

    Maybe downing an unlabeled potion tasting of vile ash and blood at the end of a successful battle might not have been the best idea. But he did. Curse his morbid curiosity. He’d even fucking seen the odd ingredients and weird runes written in the odd books he’d pilfered from the workbench. But had it stopped him? Of course not. Into the bag those books had gone and down the hatch the liquid went.

    Now the helmet calls, while a devilish idea brews.

    He’s done it once, after all. What’s to stop him from doing it twice? Aside from the shame, the public humiliation, and the promise of execution should he be caught. But really, what won’t Henry do to give his lord the freedom he so desperately needs, even if that path to freedom is paved with brimstone? There is no list shorter.

    Summary

    Skalitz burns but one less victim is claimed. Rattay thrives but the walls are closing in on its heir.

    Lost in their own ways, Anna and Hans find common ground in uncommon circumstances, and bond over tumultuous stories of love and loud sacrifice.

     

    (Or, a world where Henry’s mother survives, Henry and Hans are still painfully obvious in their affections, and Radzig still is about to lose his mind, but at least he has company this time.)

    Summary

    Hans and Henry go on a hunting trip together in autumn of 1438, to spend some private time with each other away from the prying eyes of the people of Rattay and Skalitz. They have obligations to others - Hans to Rattay, and his wife and son, and now his grandchildren, and Henry to his father and half-brother and the rebuilt Skalitz - and these short trips are the only brief times they truly get for themselves.

    Summary

    “Tell me what you need,” Hans says again.

    Henry is quiet for a few moments. Outside, someone walks through the courtyard carrying a bucket of water that splashes out onto the dirt floor. Once the person passes, Henry says in a whisper, “Could you press it? With your hand. My back, I mean. My lower back.”

     

    Hans finds himself needed, and makes himself useful, one night at Trosky. A story inspired by the Bad Back negative perk.

    Summary

    "Jesus Christ, I'm coming—" The door opened and Henry took Capon in. He was in his braies, his wheat-brown hair dishevelled and nettle-green eyes bleary as he squinted, trying to comprehend why Henry was standing in his doorway in the wee hours. "Hal? You look like shit."

    "Did you know?" he asked, breathless.

    "Did I know what?" He leaned against the doorway, bracing himself and letting his arms tense. On another man, Henry might have taken it for a sign of aggression—Hans was just showing off, a toothy grin on his face.

    "Did you fucking know?" he shouted, and Hans quickly went pale.

    "Are you fucking insane? Keep your voice down, you complete barbarian."

    Summary

    Lancelot sat bolt upright in bed, sending his stupid Galehaut sprawling onto the floor. "Jesus Christ!" he burst, then clapped his hand over his mouth. Henry occasionally woke, long enough to eat a little and assist in changing his own bandages; this was the first time, however, he'd bolted upright and started yelling when the only person in his room was a young lord with no justifiable reason to be staring at his sleeping body with such sorrowful longing.

    "Hans?" Henry's eyes darted around the room, and Hans pulled himself to his feet, gesturing for the man to lower his damn voice.

    "Be quiet before you wake the entire goddamn fort," he snapped, staggering back to his feet and into his chair. "I'm right here." Henry reached for him, fumbling and clumsy, and Hans sighed and acquiesced, allowing him close enough to inspect him for wounds.

    Summary

    "Prove to me you can manage one goddamn person first. Not a deal. Not a deck. A fuckin' person."

    Hans Capon is handed an assistant as a test of his fitness to inherit. Henry is handed a job he didn't ask for, working for a man the whole building has already decided will either flame out or turn into his uncle.

    He turns out to be neither.

    A slow burn about inheritance, competence, and what it costs to be the only person who sees someone clearly.

    Modern Corporate AU inspired by Succession.

    Summary

    Hans’s hand on his wrist, his knee on his other arm. Sitting on his chest, pinning him down. The weight of him. Fragments of the real thing. A poor substitute, but something. To touch him again, even if with his fists. Any way. Anything. He says it again, knowing he must seem obvious, but in his beer soaked mind, in this exhausted and drunk body, it makes all the sense in the world for him to say, “We should fight again. Alright? Fight me again.”

    Hans looks away. The firelight touches the slope of his throat, shadows collecting under his Adam’s apple. “Henry,” he says. “Stop. I can’t bear this.”

     

    Clenched fists. Dark arenas. The iron taste of blood from a split lip. Henry pulls together fragments, finding a way to get close again after rejecting Hans’s kiss.

    Summary

    In which Hans keeps on leaving groschen on Henry's bed.

    "I’m not your charity case, Hans.” Henry stops the Lord's roaming hands from finding refuge in his trousers.

    Hans sighs a long, insufferable, boyish sigh before detaching himself from Henry. He takes the rag as he does so, and sloppily rubs the towel on his body. To his credit, he cleans himself somewhat well.

    “Is it not a Lord's duty to provide for his people?”

    “Do you provide for the other Skalitz refugees?” Henry returns, pointedly.

    Summary

    "So forgive me, dear Henry, my anger," Hans said more gently.

    Henry wasn't sure he remembered him ever speaking with such tenderness before.

    "But to think that you had so quickly slipped away from my side again—" Hans' gaze turned down to his knees.
    "When I have already spent days mourning you."

    Summary

    Snow rested heavily over the town. The streetlights were few and far between and seemed to cast more shadows than light. But the moonlight above reflected on the untouched snow and illuminated the night. Snowflakes drifted down in large clots, and faintly, Hans could hear the hum of the refrigerator.

    It was late, and it would be a few more hours until sunlight spilled over the region. But as Hans sat there at his desk with his knee bouncing, even with how heavy his eyes felt he couldn’t look away from his computer. His heart rate remained steady, but as he reviewed his post over and over again, the temptation to delete it grew stronger and stronger.

    This terrible feeling of guilt. This welcomed shame that clung to his nerves and made him shaky. He had only himself to blame but it’s become too much.

    How did he become so pathetic?

    Summary

    During what was supposed to be a relaxing hunt, Hans encounters a threat he is wholly unprepared for. Just when things seem most dire though, he's saved by an unexpected champion: a lone wolf. Once the danger's passed, the beast even leads Hans to safety before mysteriously vanishing.

    Normally, Hans wouldn't think much of it. But now, he can't stop seeing the wolf everywhere he goes. The creature seems to be stalking him; to what end, he can't decide.

    The one thing he knows for certain, however - Henry is nowhere to be found.

    - OR -

    Five times that Hans sees the wolf, and one time he doesn't.

    Summary

    There is a twig that’s been bothering Hans for the better part of half an hour.
    Mentally, he curses Henry for dragging him out here in the first place. They could have recuperated at the Den, gone hunting, made good use of the precious little time afforded to them now, away from prying eyes – in short, there were a myriad of far more pleasant enterprises they could have been entertaining. Instead, here they are, squatting in the middle of the God-damn forest like a pack of vagabonds, caught in yet another of Žižka’s interminable schemes.

    Henry has come close to death many times, dealing it and teetering on life's edge. In a way, she has become an old friend. For one so immersed in death the veil of one life and the next becomes thin, an extraordinary ability for one with the wit to use it. For a Blacksmith's boy though... perhaps less so.

    Summary

    There are easier people to want than Hans Capon. Henry knows this, has known it for a while now. Yet Hans keeps showing up anyway, and Henry keeps letting him, and they almost never say anything about it.

    But plague has a way of making cowards brave enough to do stupid things, and the thing about ‘almost’ is that it’s so much worse than nothing.

    Summary

    "He looked peaceful, as if he would wake like he always did; with a smile, a touch, a sleep-drunk kiss upon Henry's lips. Henry would groan as the sunlight hit his eyes, and Hans would laugh. The day gives back what you give it in the morning, he'd say, with no trace of contempt. He'd be so cheerful, so infuriatingly sunny, and Henry wouldn't have it any other way.

    That was his Hans. Who this Hans was, he did not know."

    Pirkstein was too small, too dangerous, and one careless mistake was all it took. With their secret laid bare, Henry is forced to leave Hans behind. Which is why, as autumn slowly turns to winter, Henry is surprised and delighted to see Hans once more, walking the streets of Kuttenberg that he now calls home.

    Only something is very, very wrong.

    This is Hans Capon, make no mistake: but he has no memory of Henry at all.
