    Summary

    Cas stretches out in the backseat while Dean takes up the front, and Dean’s pretty devoted to gritting his teeth until he can catch an hour or two of sleep, but sleep won’t take, and it just doesn’t take long at all for him to start shivering despite the layers.

     

    After maybe half an hour of shivering, he hears rustling behind him, picks himself up by the elbows to peer over the back of the front bench, and sees Cas shedding clothes.

     

    “... what are you doing?”

     

    “I am preparing to share body heat with you,” Cas answers flatly, already out of his coat and jacket, unbuttoning his collared shirt and shrugging it off; his shoulders and arms look immense in the thin undershirt beneath.

     

    “W-We won’t be doing that—”

    Summary

    He lies in bed with Jane beside him, but every time he closes his eyes, he is back at the Tower, strapped to the pyre. Every time his mind drifts into unconsciousness, he sees her on the gallows.

    In which Guildford suffers from nightmares and in true Guildford (read - melodramatic) fashion decides that keeping it to himself is a great solution to his problem. Drama follows. Jane comes to the rescue. Smut ensues.

    Summary

    A What-If fic from episodes 4 & 5 of "My Lady Jane" on Amazon Prime. What if Guildford had found Jane after Mary's attack on her life? What if the attack had been more serious than in the show? Guildford's thoughts as he wrestles with the fact that the wife he begrudgingly agreed to marry had somehow become the one person he can't live without. I like to imagine that even when he's not with her, she's constantly on his mind (even as a horse).

    Cōnsummāre,
    To perfect, to consummate.

    Cōnsūmere,
    To devour, to take wholly or completely.

    Turns out, shoving all of your repressed desires into a box lined with teeth will spectacularly backfire when eventually you have to open the box up again. Or, Hob Gadling demonstrates his ability to code switch and Dream goes off the rails a bit.

    Summary

    After everything, perhaps the large figure hovering by the doorway should frighten him. It's already half-past eight, and Jon should be alone in the Archive– should be, but somehow he knows that he isn’t. No, he knows, down to the marrow–

    It's only Martin.

    Summary

    One day, in spring, he comes to the Inn.

    Hob looks up and he’s there, and the relief is blinding. He thinks tu m’as manqué, fuck, because you were missing from me feels more true than I missed you ever has. English missing was ruined for him the moment he learned the French way of it. Longing is meant to be a reflexive verb.

    It would be a bad faith translation, even for him. He tells himself this is why he doesn’t say it.

    He thinks at last, and that’s a doable one. So he smiles, says, “You’re late.”

    Summary

    “You know what kept me going, century after century?” Hob is angry enough, desperate enough, that his voice drops low, quiet. “Even when I had nothing?”

    The music around them crests, waves crashing against the unyielding shores of time –

    “Chimneys,” Morpheus answers, bland.

    Oh, what a bastard.

    --------------------

    Or, dreams are memories, Hob reflects about life, and Morpheus learns a thing or two about what it means to be saved, and to be loved.

    This writing is so amazing. I absolutely love this story. I could feel each swoon and heartbreak as Hob and Morpheus did. Fantastic.
