    Summary

    “Do what I’m doing with you,” Henry says. “Pretend she’s you, and you’re me. Do it like we do.”

     

    Hans blurs the lines between his relationships, taking other places in the persistent softness of the mind and in his different beds.

    Summary


    “Good god, Henry, again already? Still feels like you sucked my soul out of my cock with your arsehole.”

    “Don‘t say it like that. I thought it was romantic,” Henry grinned, and wiped a bead of sweat off Hans’ brow with his thumb. In a display of infinite and glorious romance, he licked it.

    “Thought you were about to pop, your face was so red, Sir Hans,” Henry snickered.

    Hans threaded a gentle hand in the overgrown hairs on the back of Henry’s head, and wrung his neck, just a little.

    “Someone fancies himself a minstrel, huh? I’m going to set Pebbles loose and make you walk back. Get in a good squeeze, because this is the last you'll be seeing of my backside.”

    “A fine backside it was, my lord. I’ll miss it dearly.”

    Hans takes to planning an outing to woo Henry. To spectacular results.

    Summary

    To young lord Hans Capon of Pirkstein, no matter whether he was the son of a village blacksmith or a noble's bastard, Henry was no more than a dog.
    The moment the dog dared to disobey, all he was good for was to be kicked, and all he could hope for is that the lord, in his infinite noble wisdom, wouldn't deem him rabid—and put him down.
    Let it be so, then. If he was an unruly dog, hungering after something he had no right to, then he was already damned. God can't help him.
    His soul was already lost—the leash to it in different hands than God's.

    Henry tries to bury all the conflicting feelings about his lord somewhere deep. But was born under an unlucky star, after all: the world won't let him keep these things buried for too long. A study of Henry's state of mind after Laboratores until For Victory!; exploration of his own fears and desires he struggles to understand. Canon compliant, extended: filling in the gaps. Misunderstood religious misery, self-discovery, shameless dog motif, power imbalance and crossing the class divide; two absolute fools in horrible, horrible love.

     

    Chapter titles reference the associated in-game quest.

    Summary

    If you asked poets and minstrels, and lovey-dovey aristocrats wooing naive wenches across Bohemia, they would tell you that absence makes the heart grow fonder. If you asked young lord Hans Capon of Pirkstein, however, he’d tell you it’s an idiotic, pestilential sentiment coined by some daft cunt who never had to suffer the terror and indignity of being parted from their heart’s desire. Or they’ve just never met Henry.

    Each time Hans cannot see him, the walls of the world start closing in, threatening to crush him. Each time Henry is away, the young lord has to face the terrifying reality of longing, craving, dreaming, yearning—and the frustration of not knowing whether the blacksmith’s boy is even alive. Worse! The frustration of not knowing whether the bastard misses him as bad as Hans does.

    And then, each time Henry returns to him, two crucial things dawn upon Capon’s head: one, he needs to remember there are books that speak of love he dares not voice himself. Two: he might not agree with absence making the heart fonder, but it sure does make his cock ache.

    From Nebakov to Suchdol, a study of the times Hans missed Henry—and the times they reunited. Canon compliant; filling in the gaps.
