[Podfic] all the roads that lead you there by redtoblack for Rizandace
Fandoms: Roswell New Mexico (TV 2019)

Summary
Original Summary-
You have to understand how bad it was, the wanting him. There’s some version of this story where I lie to you and say when Alex wasn’t in front of me, I wasn’t thinking about him. That he didn’t fill every second of my days and nights, that I wasn’t walking wounded through the hours of my life waiting for the next time I’d see him and the world would start making sense again. But I can’t lie. It was really bad.
If you were to put it on a scale, the low end being indifference and the high end being some Shakespearean goddamn tragedy, the way I felt about Alex Manes was somewhere off the edge of the chart, off the page, in the stratosphere. I think people associate romance, loving someone, with positive emotional experiences. Being in love can hurt sometimes, but it’s also supposed to be worth it, right?
What I’m trying to express here is that for a long time, it wasn’t worth it.

Summary
It's Monday, and it's "you, me, bedroom, whaddya say," and it's "this goes both ways, cowboy," and it's "I'm so sorry," and "I want you," and "I love you." It's a lot of things, really, this vast mosaic of feeling between them. They've always been complicated like that - or maybe not so complicated, after all.
(Alex and Michael finally have the house back to themselves. They take the opportunity to reconnect. Epilogue to sweet nothings are screamed, not spoken, but can also stand alone.)

Summary
Shame burns. It blisters in the skin like that of a fresh deckhand, still unused to long days in the full sun. It worms its way up the neck, warmth like spilled viscera as it tumbles across the cheeks.
And Izzy had to clench his jaw to keep from making a sound, because all the gods help him, it felt good.

Summary
He’s only dreaming, he knows. For a short while, at least, he knows it, and then he sort of thinks it, and then it becomes a foggy, wispy cloud around his head that evaporates without a trace. And then he doesn’t know, he doesn’t know he’s dreaming, and all Jaskier can think is oh sweet Melitele, please not again.
--or, Jaskier's trying to pick up the pieces. Yennefer helps.

The bard and the witch, the witcher and the bard, the witch and the witcher.
It's not until that night — head tipped back against the cool porcelain tub, the scent of lilac and gooseberries gently filling the room — that Yennefer realizes she missed her chance to kill him. But no matter. It's not like their paths will be crossing again.
--or, the one where Yen and Geralt are soulmates, and it pisses them the hell off.

The fire is dead. The room is freezing.
Merlin has awoken in a strange room. Who is it that comes stumbling through the door? What secrets lie in the dark beyond the reach of friendly torchlight?
((You don't need to have played the game for this to make sense, although it will help - there are easter eggs aplenty. You probly should have seen Merlin though, I explain very little of the references to canon.))

Summary
my breath catches in your throat, I can feel it. or is it yours catches in mine? a funny phrase, isn't it, though - to catch a breath - like a butterfly, trapped in a cage. what do you think, Eliot? what is it like? to be trapped in a cage?
The Monster wasn't quite done with Eliot. And as it turned out, it wasn't exactly done with Quentin, either.
