    Summary

    Frank has never been a good sleeper. It's a blessing and a curse in turn, but he's made peace with needing less sleep than anyone he's ever met.

    And then he meets Mel King, and she changes that.

    (She changes everything.)

    OR — Over a series of late night talks, texts, FaceTimes, and maybe dates, Langdon and Mel fall in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.

    Summary

    “And so,” Eadwulf said, “ever since then, wizards must take care of their hearts, and never give it freely, for they risk the rebellion of their own magic and the curse of the Abyss.”
    Silence fell over the gathered audience.
    “Of course,” Caleb said, dryly, “you could see this story as a bit of propaganda to make the teenage wizards not go falling in love left and right. You know, focus on schoolwork or you’ll die.”
    “Caleb, are you saying you’re in love and it’s killing you?!” Veth half-screamed.

     
    There is so much more to live for than romantic love. After everything, Caleb Widogast chooses to live.

    Summary

    You come down the next morning to the fishing shack in the village to find the detective bathing in the sea.
    “Detective,” you say. “I’m pleased to note you availing yourself of the facilities.”
    “Kim, it’s fucking freezing,” he says, seriously. His hair hangs wet and limp, darker like this, and his chops draggle down his face. He looks like a half-drowned dog you had once seen Eyes pull out of L’Esperance.
    You’ve got to let him use your shower, you decide.

    Set in Martinaise.
