    Summary

    "Does it hurt you to think of him hurting your country?" he asked, and he told himself that he was pleased, that he wanted Damen hurt. That is eased his own pain if Damen, too, were forced to suffer.

    "You know it does," Damianos answered. He paced like a caged animal, like one of Halvik's chained leopards, full of restrained violence, yet he came no closer. "Are we playing now with the fate of nations?" he demanded. "It won't bring your brother back."

    With the Regent in Ios and his Akielon's identity revealed, the war for the throne of Vere is gaining heat. Laurent's plans for his alliance and his trust in his Akielon have both been shaken by his Uncle's machinations, but he is determined that he will continue the fight, no matter how much it hurts. This is an attempt to examine King's Rising from Laurent's POV.

    Summary

    Laurent had come to Marlas a bright and innocent youth caught up in his brother's excitement, in the romance of battle and the righteousness of their cause. He left the battlefield alone, a stranger to himself, ready to be reshaped into a creature of someone else's design. Time and trauma cut him farther from himself, from the ability to do anything but play the losing game he found himself caught up in.

    This is an attempt to examine the first novel from Laurent's POV.

    Summary

    It's been over a year since the search for Glendower has ended, and the Gangsey reunite in Henrietta for Christmas. Adam and Ronan have been functioning mostly long distance, but their relationship is put to the test when Adams mom attempts reunification after leaving his father.

    Ronan & Adam POV, implied Henry/Blue/Gansey, implied Ronan/Kavinsky (in the past, obviously), lots of cute Mr. Grey/Maura. Explicitly bisexual Adam and explicitly gay Ronan. Papa Ronan & Opal. Lots of Hurt/Comfort. Trigger Warnings for discussions of general violence, domestic abuse, trauma, homophobia, and substance abuse.

    This is a loose follow up to my other fic, Where The Grief Goes, but you don't have to have read that one to follow this one.

    I have no idea how long this fic is gonna be, but we're doing it! Thanks for reading!

    Summary

    In front of him, the beautiful firm-muscled body of Percy Newton gleams softly in the still-strong light of late afternoon, damp with seawater and the exertion of climbing the cliffs back to their little cottage. Percy has just let his shirt fall from his fingers and onto the mingled heap of their clothes on the floor tiles, then straightened, nude. He smiles and says, tenderly, as he approaches the bed, "Monty."

    "Unghum," says Monty. He tries clearing his throat. Now nothing comes out at all when he opens his mouth. It is a deeply alien sensation.
    ****

    Monty and Percy's first time is full of surprises.

    Summary

    AU/ In which Bianca never dies and Nico has a home.

    "..There was a knock at the door and Nico di Angelo came huffing into the parlor, his cheeks bright red from the cold.

    He was smiling, but he looked around anxiously, "Hey! Where's... Where's my sister?".."

    (Really just my take on things if Nico would've had prophecies involving him, and going on quests with Percy instead of Annabeth.)

    Summary

    “It’ll be fun,” Will said from over an Iris-Message, ignoring Nico’s doubtful look. “You eat until you hate yourself and then you fall asleep on the couch. It’s like the most American thing you can do.”

    “I’m not American.”

    “Yeah but you live in the United States, so it’s just something you’re going to have to come to terms with."

    Or...

    In which Nico learns a lot about movies from the 80's, Will's mother is a gem, and Will almost throws up again.

    Percy opened his eyes and smirked at the son of Hades, who went weak in the knees and trembled.

    That was when Nico realized just how fucked he was.
