    Summary

    Jonathan Sims is a merperson who has always lived below the waves. One day, however, he steals away and ventures to the surface in search of someone he lost. On newfound legs, his search takes him to The Magnus Institute — the foremost academic institution researching crypto-zoology and crypto-marine biology, headed by the enigmatic Elias Bouchard. With his new position as Head Archivist, Jon is in the perfect place to continue his search. Hiding his secret identity as merfolk should no problem, either.

    After all, it's not like he wants to be friends, much less more-than-friends with the humans.

    And surely none of them are hiding secrets of their own.

    Right?

    ...

    In other words: It's a selkie and merfolk AU! Jon is merfolk, and goes to the surface in search of a long-lost friend. He takes a job at the Magnus Institute as part of his search, and soon finds himself embroiled in all kinds of drama — including, but not limited to, falling in love.

    Complete!

    Summary

    Simon Snow, an orphan taken into the guardianship of Davy Mage, has, without his knowledge or consent, been promised to Basilton Pitch. With a catch, if Baz can't fix Simon's behavioural issues and general lack of class, the deal's off. Simon being unwilling and difficult turns out to be a small obstacle in comparison to Baz slowly discovering he doesn't want Simon to change at all.

    Summary

    Undredal is a charming village. Nestled among the remote fjordlands of Norway, surrounded by steep cliffs and glassy water, it’s like something out of a fairytale. (One could even call it magical.)

    But Undredal has been harbouring a big secret—and it’s not the amazing goat cheese.

    Baz Pitch doesn’t know it, but he’s about to find out what it is.

    ***

    An AU where Ebb got to Simon before the Mage could and ran off to Norway. The World of Mages was never the same.
