Summary
There was a delicate balance in place at the moment. 'Mollymauk' was something he did not know or understand—something immensely powerful that had decided to puppet Mollymauk's body around. It liked Caleb, perhaps a bit too much for his own comfort, but that meant it wanted to stay close as much as possible, and that it meant Caleb no harm. For now.

Summary
“Now, Frumpkin, let it go,” he held Frumpkin by the scruff and pried his mouth open. The cat caved soon with a reluctant sound, and Caleb carefully scooped the small bat from his mouth. It clung to Caleb’s hand desperately.
“There. Not that hard, ja?”
---
Frumpkin invites a bat inside Caleb's apartment. It's definitely not a hot vampire guy or anything like that.

Summary
“Veth to Caleb, I found something,” the halfling's high-pitched voice filled the dark hallway as his combadge came to life, “This is not an ordinary ship. It's more of a coffin. You can reply to this message.”
“Was?”
Beau grabbed her own comm, “What do you mean a coffin?”
“I mean… No one should be alive in there. It's a funerary pod, this thing. The paint job on the ship means it's used by a cultist group! They’re dangerous, been on Starfleet’s radar for a while,” she paused, “They dispose of bodies like this, it's all very ceremonial. Creepy shit. Could be a trap, be careful.”
---
In which the crew of the USS Mighty (NCC-09) finds a lavender tiefling stranded on a mysterious moon.
AKA the Star Trek AU no one asked for.

Summary
So he shaved and washed, and dressed the part of the mysterious Empire-born Hero of the Dynasty. Not that he didn't like how he looked, he was actually happy and more confident in himself than before, but it didn't hurt to know that a certain Drow might appreciate it too. He turned his eyes, his best feature according to Astrid, hungrily towards Essek whenever he had the chance, and he curled his lips in a smirk, his best feature according to Eadwulf, whenever they talked of the arcane.
And what does he know, it worked.
---
The one in which Caleb thinks he honeypotted Essek.

Summary
---
Essek watches, transfixed by the tiefling, as he takes his hand to his lips for a brief kiss across his knuckles, the sharp talons kept away in an easy motion.
“I don’t think I’ve ever met a drow properly before,” he says, relinquishing his hand and bowing with a flourish, “It’s a pleasure, Mr. Essek. I’m Molly, but I’m sure you’ve gathered that.”
“The pleasure is all mine,” Essek replies, falling back on his manners even if he’s sure he looks bewildered. Most people from this side of the Ashkeeper Peaks don’t smile like that at the prospect of meeting someone from his folk.
---
In which Mollymauk comes back to his body, minus a few memories, at the Blooming Grove. Essek is intrigued. Caleb is glad.

Summary
His own personal journey into masculinity took place during a stretch of years when he was already enrolled at the Soltryce Academy. By then, he was surrounded by arcanists, and physical displays of strength mattered very little, which suited him just fine. He was a man, and he felt a man, and that was that.
---
In which Caleb finds himself being appreciated for something he isn't, usually.
EDIT: This is a 5 + 1 things, though now I'm not sure how to call it. Five times Essek is horny on main and one time Caleb is too?

Summary

Summary
Essek is a part of the Mighty Nein now. That means getting to know them, finally.

This is the last chapter of my fic, "Like the end and the way", posted separately for your convenience because it fits the finale of C2 so well!!!! This chapter starts when they're going down to Aeor, but Trent is already dead.
Anyway, shadowgast is canon y'all.

Summary
In which the Nein take a break, a real break, just for a while. And while some build relationships with each other and take some time off, for the first time in a long time, Caleb feels left out. On a whim, he decides to find Essek, to maybe fix whatever has been broken, learn more dunamancy maybe, and maybe something more.
---
AU: In this timeline, the tomb takers arc didn’t start yet, and the Nein enjoys a much earned time off from adventuring after Rumblecusp, at least for a while. Caleb seeks out Essek, they spend time dancing around each other in Eiselcross until reality comes knocking at their door.Series
