    Summary

    Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.

    So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.

    Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

    Summary

    "It’s a beautiful day at the Soltryce Academy—the sky is vibrant and the trees rustle with the gentlest of winds as Caleb begins his impromptu Transmutation lecture outside. From the building on the edge of the grounds he hears a muffled bell tolling for fifth period. Somewhere in the distance, a student begins to whistle.
    At that moment, Caleb feels at peace.
    At that moment, a Purple Worm bursts forth from the soil directly in front of him, and all of his plans for a pleasant afternoon are promptly dashed."
    ---
    Caleb and Essek have finally settled down - more or less. While the beloved and somewhat eccentric Professor Widogast is busy inciting small student-scale riots and teaching tiny wizards morals, Essek spends his days lounging around the house, drinking wine and experimenting with the exotic concept of 'cooking his own meals'. They are pretty sure life is great - until two pre-teen assassins crash-land into the middle of the Soltryce Academy and demand the former Shadowhand be surrendered to their custody. What are the two internationally in/famous mages to do? The answer will shock absolutely no one.

    Summary

    She pauses in a way that Caleb knows means she has more to say, and he glances back at her, watches her collect her thoughts, watches her ready herself for the next thing she’s going to say.  She heaves out a heavy sigh, shoulders rising and falling as she does so, brow pinched as she considers her words.

    “Which is why… I know you don’t mean what you said about Essek.”

    The name itself is like a punch to the gut, and Caleb clenches his jaw at it and breathes in deeply through his nose, as though it might ease the associated pain.  He feels his whole body stiffen, feels the way his fingers tighten reflexively around his cup, feels his shoulders draw in.

    He knows Beau can see it.  He hates how transparent he is being.


    Beau and Caleb talk about second chances. Takes place during Ep98.
