Summary
In 2022, Dream of the Endless pays an overdue visit to his old friend Hob Gadling. They go upstairs to Hob’s flat above the pub eventually, when the smiles have faded into stares, when the heat beneath Hob’s skin is too much to bear a moment longer. He has not asked the Stranger’s name; that is a bridge too far, and even after being called as Friend, he can’t bring himself to press. This is already so much more than he ever dared imagine…at least in waking hours.
Now featuring everything it says on the tin plus a battle unicorn.

Summary
If you haven't watched the magnificent Stream of Blood's the Neptune Society on Twitch or YouTube, this will make no sense to you. I was inspired to write this after Jared Logan's ridiculous poll on Twitter about Bigfoot. He egged me on. I would like to thank him and my eternal co-conspirator and beta Clancy Nacht for encouraging this lunacy.
Guy Branum, please forgive me, and know I have loved you since Chelsea Lately. You are an absolute star.

Summary
Comic book author Quentin and his best friend, artist Eliot, have an urgent deadline approaching after Christmas, so when Quentin's boyfriend dumps him right before his sister Julia's winter wedding to longtime girlfriend Kady, Quentin takes Eliot as his plus one. Two weeks in Q's small, idyllic hometown together with Kady, Julia, and Q and Julia's dad Henry Fogg. It'll be a working vacation, right? They'll get those pages finished in no time.
However, shortly after they arrive, extravagant magical portrayals of the 12 Days of Christmas begin arriving daily, addressed to "My One True Love" but lacking any hint of the sender. To uncover the identity of his true love, Quentin embarks on a quest with Eliot's reluctant, amused assistance. Determined but befuddled, Quentin revisits several old flames in hopes of solving the mystery, but is it possible his true love has been right in front of his face the whole time?
This novel-length Queliot Christmas romance features mutual pining, friends-to-lovers, dramatic magical Christmas presents, holiday baking, and domestic fluff, plus many sassy bisexuals.
AKA the "My Christmas Love" Hallmark Christmas AU.

The Qualiot Back to School Makeover Story You Maybe Didn't Need But Got Anyway by charlotteschaos, prettyclever for

Summary
Season 1 AU. Premise: Quentin and Alice got together at Brakebills South, things went poorly for Eliot with Mike, and instead of kind of being too wrapped up in themselves to be there for El after he has to kill Mike, Quentin and Alice comforted Eliot. This fixes just about everything. No one else has to die, everything’s good. Nothing is bad. Except Quentin’s very high school fashion sense and Alice’s self-conscious grasp of proportionizing.
This is just a very silly little story about Eliot taking his boyfriend Quentin and his girlfriend Alice back to school shopping so they can be as outwardly fabulous and sexy as they are inwardly. It's ridiculous. It has no point. It's fluff. It was, in fact, supposed to be a drabble, but prettychaos is not known for its short fics.

He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again.

When I played Disco Elysium, I wanted more than anything for Kim to love me. I mean Harry.
Yeah. Harry. >_>
This is everything I wanted.

Summary
Despite Jaskier's hard work, there are still plenty of people who hate witchers. They think they're monstrous, inhuman, only held back from violence by a thin veneer of control. One mage has a plan to spread his views by capturing a witcher and bewitching them to remove their control. When the Butcher of Blaviken walks into his hideout, he's convinced he's found the perfect candidate - and a convenient way to get rid of the pesky bard that's been singing his praises.
Jaskier is forced to agree witchers are not human, but that doesn't mean they're dangerous. In fact, he's astounded by how many of Geralt's uncontrolled impulses involve touching.

This is just an amazing story. It's gentle and funny and sweet and spicy and overall wonderful. To be reread on bad days.

Summary
… is requested at the celebration of the legal solemnization of the ecstatic conjugal bliss between Formerly High King Now Courtesy-Title-Only King Eliot and King Quentin-- Actually just Quentin is-- No. You’re a King. King Quentin. Italicize that. Conjugal, too. Anyway, blah blah blah. Time date place. Her serene and stabby majesty High King Fen will serenely stab you if you decline to attend and/or bring off-registry gifts--
Wait. Hold on a sec. Lemme see that . . . oh. El, he’s. Christ. He’s transcribing this word for word. Like, every word-- Of course he is-- Tick. TICK! Jesus, how is he still writing? Also, how is his calligraphy that good, seriously?
You’ve been on Earth too long, baby. Well, let’s just lean in, shall we? Love Fillorian style. We’re getting fucking married. You’re invited. Bunny us your regrets only.
And you will regret it. Italicize the will. All caps. And a very tasteful sketch of my hand up King Quentin’s--
Eliot and Quentin are getting married. A story in three acts, as told by three of the somewhat less dearly beloved, gathered here today.
(Or: the best thing about true love? It doesn’t need to make sense to anyone except the ones in it.)
