Summary
Laurent de Vere, handsome, clever, and rich, with a moderately comfortable home and an immoderately bratty disposition, seemed to break up some of the worst matches in existence; and had lived nearly twenty-four years in the world with very little to distress or vex him.

Summary
Laurent gestured subtly, towards the other end of the ballroom where a group of men were talking amiably. “Him,” Laurent said.
Auguste looked. “What about him?”
“I’m going to court him.”
There was a long pause. “That’s King Damianos of Akielos.”
“Okay,” Laurent replied.

“Pellar, cunning man, witch, sorcerer,” Laurent says, stomping hard on the shovel as he hits a particularly nasty root. “I’ve been called lots of things.”
“And what do you like to be called?” the man with the summer voice asks him.

Summary
When Damen's a/c breaks right before an important dinner party, he finds the only technician willing to help him fix it.
Unfortunately, that technician is Laurent.
“Hey,” Damen says, before he even fully opens the door, “thanks for–fuck.”He really didn't mean to say that; never would have, even, if he hadn’t been sitting in a sweltering apartment for the last twelve hours and been on the phone with intractable, obstinate technicians for half of that. If his brain hadn’t been boiling, he wouldn’t have. If he didn’t have this terrible dinner party to worry about, he wouldn’t have. If the man standing on the other side of the door wasn’t the most beautiful person he’d ever seen in his entire life, he definitely wouldn’t have.
But he did.
And the most beautiful (gorgeous, stunning, exquisite, annoyed, blond) person he’s ever seen in his entire life doesn’t seem too impressed by it.
“Believe me, sweetheart, if I had fucked you you’d be saying a lot nicer things than ‘thanks’,” the man says, brushing past him with enough confidence to make Damen think he had invited him in and hadn't just been standing there stupidly, dumbstruck.

Summary
Derek blows some more smoke out. He chooses to look at Stiles’ mouth instead of in his eyes, again. “I need you to bring someone back.”
“Back.”
“From the dead.”
“Absolutely not,” Stiles scoffs, shaking his head. “Not for you, not for all the money in the world.”
Derek looks at him, just looks. He is not going to accept no for an answer, and Stiles knows it, but it doesn’t matter, because Stiles will not do that. He cannot do that, not again. “Why not for me in specific?”

Summary
Stiles had been like any other kid growing up in the era of dragons. He'd watched the cartoons, the news stories, had the lunch box. When his screening at Beacon Hills High had come up negative, he'd been disappointed but unsurprised. His positive results were returned three years too late for it to be in any way convenient or cool.
Or, the one where they ride dragons.

Summary
“... it was written I should be loyal to the nightmare of my choice.”
Rogue werewolves and incubi and ghosts, oh my!: Life in Beacon Hills continues to be the epitome of weird.
Especially for emissary-in-training Stiles, who's being literally haunted by a parade of Beacon Hills' deceased, who are trying to compel him to embrace the darkness in his heart. His only source of comfort is when he's writing to an emotionally constipated Beta werewolf. When Derek Hale is your anchor to sanity? Yeah, weird might be an underestimation.
Stiles is well suited to the path of an emissary; in fact, something important about him has already been overlooked. Something that could have deadly consequences both for him, and for everyone else...

Okay, so, kissing Stiles. That's a weird thing that Derek's doing now. He has no idea where it's even coming from, especially considering bickering and fighting is their usual state of existence.
And then he does find out where it's coming from: A curse that's making everyone in town kiss someone they have mutual feelings for.
…yeah, Derek's not even sure why he's surprised by that.- Language:

Summary
So, the thing about Stiles is that he has moles. He’s always had moles. There’re lots of them, big, little, they cover every inch of his body. They’ve long since lost any fascination for him, so much so he forgets they’re there at all most of the time. It’s only when he meets someone new, and their eyes linger a little off to the left of his mouth, or someone pokes along his arm to get his attention that he remembers they’re there at all.
Or five times Derek played connect the dots and Stiles was unamused.
