    Summary

    "At some point halfway down the stairs you stop and just…laugh. It’s self-deprecating and hollow, but it feels appropriate. It’s kind of funny, isn’t it? How comfortable you’ve become with your unmerciful boss, how prone you are to oversharing bits of your life as if he actually cares. Only a real and true idiot would be capable of such a critical blunder, and yet—"

    Or, ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time just might help you find the right place at the right time.

    Summary

    "Uhh..."

    His eyes reflected yours - owlish, stunned and bright, even in the darkness of the bakery kitchen. Perhaps illuminated by the candle you held, or perhaps his cerulean-gaze was just naturally bright and shiny. But regardless, both you and the stranger regarded each other in shocked silence.

    You, with your mouth wide and gaping, as you stared at the culprit of your unexpected midnight awakening.

    Him, with his mouth stuffed with one bread roll, and wiry arms full of at least a dozen others.

    OR,

    It's the classic story: Boy meets girl, Sumpsnipe meets Promenade-brat, baker meets rebel.

    And then it becomes so, so much more than that, for both of them.

    Summary

    SilcoXFem!reader coffee shop au!

    You never thought you'd be in your late twenties and working in a coffee shop like a college kid, but your job at The Last Drip isn't so bad really. You're a shift lead, and you can afford to split the rent on an apartment nearby with your sister. (also, free coffee is a real perk, am I right?) Yet your future appears to be going nowhere, and fast.

    At least it's finally autumn, your favorite time of the year.

    The first day of October starts out fairly ordinary, until your manager Sevika sends you with an important coffee order to Zaun Community College, to be delivered to the board of directors. As it so happens, the head of the board is the mysterious and illusive Silco, the man who also owns of a number of drink establishments in town (The Last Drip included).

    This seemingly mundane delivery sets off a chain of events that makes for a strange, but undoubtedly the most memorable Halloween season of your life.
