Summary
Carlo smiled at him and Romeo’s thoughts were lost. They remained in delicate silence for a while.
“Thank you for coming back.” Carlo said gently, looking down to their linked fingers. “Nobody ever comes back.”
“I will.” Romeo didn’t know what he was saying, he only knew that that quiet sadness didn’t belong on Carlo’s face. “As often as you want. Whenever you need me.”

There was a rumour going around Krat recently. That the manor sitting on the edge of town, the overgrown and vacant building that loomed menacingly over the nearby woods, was in fact haunted.Bookmarked by moonsickblooms

Summary
Romeo and Carlo sneak out of the charity house for the night.
“I’ll tell you what I want,” Carlo continues, parting the window curtains to let moonlight spill into the room. The window unlatches with a creak before a rush of icy air makes Romeo’s skin prickle. “I want to live.”
“You want to go out? Even after I sneaked all the way up here for you?” Romeo asks, the words falling from his lips before he can stop them. Because these are the magic words: for you. For Carlo. His best friend knows he has all the cards. He always has.
Carlo grins.
100 words of kissing like your life depends on it.

Summary
Carlo Gepetto may have inherited a tinker’s steady hands, but he certainly isn’t methodical with them. He’s not like Romeo, who’s learned that reckless emotion is a luxury that he can rarely afford. Carlo is a person who keeps wanting, no matter how much it keeps hurting him. Each rejection just leads to another want. He hasn’t grown out of that aching, hungry need.
The thing is, Romeo is perfectly aware that Carlo’s method of coping with his father’s constant slights probably isn’t the best one. The other thing is, he absolutely is not going to say that.

Summary
With all the capacity for self-righteous anger his station allows him, it’s not unusual for Carlo to come back to their shared room with a new bruise or sprain from sparring a bit too hard. What is unusual, however, is how cagey he’s being about the brand new black eye he’s sporting.
“It was just an accident,” Carlo huffs, “now leave it be.”
Romeo finds out how Carlo likes to blow off steam and offers himself as an alternative. After all, he'd do anything if it meant keeping Carlo safe.

Summary
"He’s like any other dead man that you’ve seen in these past few hours, you think. Now a crumpled pile of bloody clothes on the bridge, this man is indistinguishable from the countless corpses you’ve passed. Broken, bloody things, oozing rusty red liquid from pulpy flesh, unmoving on rain slicked cobbles.
Why does it bother you?
You did this."Reinterpretation of the scene where Geppetto and the Puppet Boy meet

Summary
“Oh,” she said. “You don't know. Um... You see, the reason why Spring has gained weight is because she is... expecting.”
“Expecting,” P repeated.
“Yes.”
He stared blankly. For a long time, Eugenie stared back.
“Kittens,” she clarified. “She is expecting kittens. Young cats. Spring is going to be a mother. Do you understand?”
Not at all.

Summary
Set after the epilogue of Queen of Nothing, Jude and Cardan return to a calmer Elfhame, only to find that peace comes with its own unfamiliar quiet. Learning how to be married—truly married—requires a different kind of courage.
In the small rituals of ordinary days and long nights, they discover how love settles, deepens, and becomes easy. Softness wasn’t part of the original bargain, but they choose it together, again and again.

Summary
“Give me your hands.” He says, propped up over her. She’s caged in, but she’s not scared. The old, unforgiving part of her tells her that she should be. Foolish, human girl. What would Cardan get out of this other than pleasure?
She frowns at him, “I don’t understand.”
Slender fingers trace circles on the skin of her palm, and her skin goosebumps. He’s asking for control that Jude isn’t sure she’s willing to give.

Summary
“Liar,” Cardan says, his voice low. His lips brush softly down my neck, like he can’t resist touching my skin.
His dark eyes drop to my mouth, and I know there will be no retreat. No cease fire. Only defeat.
Or, answering Jude's question in TWK: "I wonder what would have happened if I'd admitted he wasn't out of my system." It's smut. The answer is smut.

Summary
The fabric bunches up around her waist and he scrapes his nails up her inner thigh. Her hand shoots down to grab his wrist and she doesn't know whether it's to push him away or pull him further towards her. She doesn’t do either, yet. Cardan watches her hesitate beneath him, and he links their free hands together, lacing their fingers. He waits for her signal.
It only takes Jude a small moment to gather herself and nod.
Cardan and Jude haven't had the time to be alone with each other in a while. They decide to play a game.
(Written before TQoN).

She feels a stranger in her own body. Like the first time she had slipped that knife inside Valerian, and her knuckles came away red. The relief of doing something long since thought of.

Jude.
His hand forms the word without even thinking about it. Not surprising, really; his body has been doing all kinds of things with regards to the human girl lately, mostly without his consent.
