    Summary

    Canada had given him his life as he knew it, but it had never felt one hundred percent comfortable, either. He missed Russia sometimes, but it didn’t have the thing that mattered most. Ilya had exactly one home, and it was this: his face pressed into a smooth chest, his head tucked under a strong jaw, with freckled arms wrapped around him and delicate fingers combing through his hair. Anywhere else was a temporary excursion.

    A treatise on second (and third) languages, homesickness, acceptance, Shane's struggle learning Russian, and the things people do when they care.

    Summary

    Essek Thelyss comes to Soltryce to deliver guest lectures and, on the side, cultivate the brand new Archmage of Domestic Protections. He’s hoping that Caleb Widogast will oblige him by picking up his predecessor’s interest in conspiring to steal Luxon beacons, after so rudely murdering Da’leth mere weeks before the culmination of their schemes.

    Essek is prepared for espionage. He is not prepared to find a love that will change the course of his life.

    Summary

    “It was a career-ending injury!” Wylan snaps. “What else is there to say? Are you trying to make fun of me?”

    Jesper recoils. “No! Saints, no, Wylan. That’s awful, I would never!”

    “You made fun of me for just about everything else.”

    “Well, that’s because I didn’t like you very much. I still don’t,” Jesper says bluntly. Wylan’s glare intensifies and Jesper hastens to add on, “But I don’t hate you!”

    -

    Seven years ago, Jesper Fahey was the up-and-coming rising star of the tennis world. The only person really in his way seemed to be the rich and haughty (and maybe, handsome) darling of Kerch tennis, Wylan Van Eck. But that was seven years ago, and after their match in Ravka—everything changed. Now, for the first time, they meet each other again.

    Summary

    Victor Nikiforov is poised to win gold in his fifth consecutive Grand Prix Final. He has the world at his feet, is unparalleled in the sport--right up until a snowstorm blows into Sochi, and he finds himself repeating the same day over and over and over. He stumbles over Yuuri Katsuki, and everything changes.

    (Or, the time loop au. Loosely based on Groundhog Day.)

    Beta'd for me, as always, by circ_bamboo, who as usual isn't even in this fandom but still loves me enough to read my writing anyway.
