    Summary

    Both of them remain slack, curled up like a child in the midst of Carcosa’s ruins, as the first sun sets. Carcosa has been described in many ways. Ominous and unnatural and alluring, yes, but never lonely until this moment.

    “I’m sorry,” John says genuinely.

    “I don’t care,” Yellow lies.

    Summary

    “Would you have?” Olruggio says quietly.

    Qifrey frowns. “Would I have what?”

    “Told me. If you had—you know, injured yourself. I’m not sure you would unless you had to,” Olruggio explains. His voice is gentle, his demeanor remains tired, and it’s clear to Qifrey he does not mean it as an accusation. He’s pointing out the obvious.

    Even so, it sinks into Qifrey like stones dropped in stillwater. His mouth wobbles and he ducks his head lower to hide the redness rising to his cheeks and ears. “I would,” Qifrey says. The lie is too easy.

    Summary

    When Arthur is asleep, John is haunted. Every bit of his surface area is too hot, too cold, too aching, too empty. John is convinced it goes beyond wanting. Every fiber of his limited existence craves touch and simultaneously rages with burning jealousy that it’s not easy to ask for.

    or, 5 times John navigates his relationship to touch without a body + 1 time with a body

    Charlotte "Charles" Xavier could be described as hopeful spiced with a dash of realism. And yet, still, nothing could have prepared her for that night on the ship. The one where she dives into the inky depths in search of a drowning mind and latches onto it.

    She never quite learned how to let go of it.

    Summary

    He writes. Almost embarrassingly soon after he leaves. Nearly the second he makes it into a small town and finds a place to camp.

    'Olruggio,' he opens simply. 'How long has it been? Already the longest we’ve been apart, for certain...'

    ~

    Qifrey sets out to find himself and Olruggio a place to live after their promotion to full-fledged witches. They write to one another to pass the time.

    Summary

    Rei is in desperate need of a job. There's little else he can do as he is now; not fully human, not fully robot—a thing, half-empty and gaping and lacking in every aspect. Which is how he ends up here: employed by a former work partner to be a bodyguard for a little girl in his care.

    It's work.

    (Until it's not.)

    Summary

    Qifrey’s mind, all of a sudden, is overridden with thoughts of Olruggio bundled up in a heavy cape and gloves, snowflakes melting on his rosy cheeks and catching in his long lashes. It stirs in his stomach, the thought of Olruggio laughing, pink due in equal parts to the giddiness and the cold.

    Qifrey lasts a grand total of two days before he decides that he has to do something about it.

    Summary

    It started with a simple question: What's the nature of their professors' relationship? To say it snowballed from there would be a gross understatement. The answer is much more complex than the girls were anticipating.

    A.k.a an exploration of witch courtship and tradition through the lens of young witches in the past and present.
