    Summary

    Stunning views. Luxurious accommodations. No neighbors to complain about the noise.

    Two years into their life as monster hunters, Wyll and Astarion take a much-needed vacation in the recently-vacated mountaintop lair of the lich they just (re-)killed. They also steal all of his stuff and do an elaborate sexual roleplay in his (un-)living room to work out some of their Issues.

    It’s kind of sort of like therapy, except with the other kind of CBT.

    Summary

    “My cousin told me,” said Alexon, proudly, “he met a man who had once been a famous gladiator from Isthima. He lasted only minutes in the arena with Damianos. But afterwards Damianos had him in his chambers for six hours.”

    “Seven hours,” said Lamen, frowning slightly.

    — C.S. Pacat, The Adventures of Charls, the Veretian Cloth Merchant

    This is (in part) the story of Arkas, a once famous gladiator from Isthima, and his friend, Basia, a once famous gladiator from Vask. At an inn in Patras they meet two sheep farmers: one a sizable man, the other has yellow hair and keen blue eyes. Perhaps they drink too much double-strength wine. Perhaps they tell too many tales.

    It is also (in part) the story of King Laurent of Vere and King Damianos of Akielos. At an inn in Patras, at a table with two gladiators, King Laurent learns of more than just his husband’s sexual prowess.

    Summary

    The Royal Baldur Ballet's upcoming season is poised to be the most dramatic yet. With seven gorgeous ballets to stage, first soloist Astarion Ancunín is convinced this will be the season he finally shines bright enough, worthy of the rank of principal dancer. Enter Wyll Ravengard, stage left, and everything is about to change.

    ~*~

     

    Wyll Ravengard is most definitely not an apprentice. Astarion knows that name, Wyll Ravengard. He won the Prix de Lausanne five or so years ago, the most prestigious competition for ballet students. Even as a student, it was clear that Wyll was going to be the ballet world’s next big star.

     

    And now he’s here, in Astarion’s barre spot. In his rank.

    Summary

    “Darling, don’t be daft, you know what’s happening.” He pulled his jerkin and undershirt off over his head in one single movement. “I reckon it’s the mushrooms, I don’t recognize them, but they must be used to brew love potions.” He started working on his trousers under Wyll’s heavy, hot gaze.

    “That’s…” Wyll cursed under his breath. “What do we do now?”

    He couldn’t be that clueless. Astarion glared at him. “What else? We fuck about it."

    Astarion gets everything he wants in the worst possible way...or so it seems.
