    Summary

    To peacefully end the war with Akielos, King Auguste of Vere sold his brother in marriage. To some, that was his first mistake.

    As Laurent thrived in Akielos, his brother's rule suffered without him. Now the King of Vere has taken a prolonged Retreat from his duties, leaving the country in the hands of his chosen Regent, his uncle, Richard. In the south, Akielos is at war with her own people, a simple rebellion that should have been quashed in months stretching into years, as if their enemies somehow know their every move before they make it.

    Summary

    And then Damen was face to face with Prince Auguste, the man he had thought to defeat and maybe kill on the battlefield all those years ago. 

    “Well, he certainly looks capable.”

    Auguste’s tone matched the look on his face. Detached, uninterested. He regarded Damen for a moment or two before stepping around him to take a look at Lou. 

    The gasp was unexpected. 

    Even more unexpected was the desperate, broken: “Laurent?”

    --

    For seven years, Lou the Unnamed Veretian has lived a life of comfort in the Akileon court, after Damen finds him bloody and injured in the woods. For seven years, the fate of Laurent the Prince of Vere has remained unknown after he escapes from a camp without anyone noticing. For seven years, the evil plot to take over two kingdoms remains hidden in the mind of the one person who already stopped it once, but doesn't remember.

    “The bone had snapped. On the fall or due to the force of the blow, I do not know. I stopped the spread of infection,” Pascal drew in a breath, “but I was not able to save the arm.”

    or: when the battle of marlas critically injures both princes, a temporary ceasefire is called.

    Summary

    Betrayed by his brother and bound by a magic he can’t even see, Prince Damianos finds himself overthrown and trapped in Veretian territory. Help comes in the form of Laurent, a Calligrapher who is specially suited to help Damen—for a price, of course. Safe passage to Ios is the payment, and together they strike out across the Veretian wilderness, dodging pursuers and finding help in the most unexpected places. Trust comes slowly, and Damen finds himself falling for his stubborn and intractable traveling companion. And sure, Damen hasn’t told him he’s a prince yet, or that he's heading to Akielos to reclaim his crown, but what’s a secret between friends? Or, as their journey goes on, lovers?

    But Laurent is hiding a few secrets of his own, and eventually Damen will be forced to deal with the fact that the magic that binds them can also divide them.

    Summary

    Laurent, a newly turned vampire with very little knowledge of the supernatural world he's been forced into, bumps into a lost ghost wandering around the streets of Marlas, and decides to help him get justice for his death. However, there are other Supernatural creatures lurking in Marlas, a group led by a charismatic werewolf called Damianos and a mysterious shapeshifter known as Cyra.

    AKA a fic where I explore my faves as Supernatural creatures and play around a little. I have a general plot and a direction I can see this going, will try and update monthly! I'm tryna go for the kinda light comedy vibe but with sort of contrasted with dark parts, angst etc, and I've drawn inspiration from many things to kind of attempt to create my own lore on some supernatural beings that will be showing up.

    Had a bit of a meltdown and deleted the original fic but I've re uploaded and will be posting once again, unfortunately cannot gaurantee any schedule

    (more updates, I abandoned this fic due to many reasons which are summarized in the notes on chapter 7, but I'm back at it again after about 4 years so yay. also Laurent is a trans man now lol)

    Summary

    “This slave is a gift from the Regent of Vere
    to Prince
    Damianos.”

    A reverse AU exploring how just a single canon divergence – where Laurent is forced into slavery instead of being the prince – could set off a chain reaction that radically transforms the original narrative.

    Inspired by this illustration of oenjanz’s (@tumblr), however the fic cover is my own.

    Summary

    Prince Damianos of Akielos is embarking on a trip to Vere. But it isn’t the promise of peace or the chance to rekindle his friendship with king Auguste that draws him.

    It’s tales of a monstrous Wolf who hunts at night, and the number of victims which are quickly piling up.

    It’s the reward offered by Auguste, so desperate for the carnage to end that he’ll give anything to the one who kills it.

    It’s a challenge from his father, who says whichever of his sons reclaims Defleur from the Veretians will be named his heir.

    And soon, it’s Auguste’s mysterious younger brother, cold and beautiful, who Damen suspects knows more about the Wolf than he’s letting on.

    Summary

    Laurent wakes screaming. He’s dying. He must be. It’s the only explanation he has for the utter agony, confusion and terror that he feels. His brain is splitting itself open, bits of it strewn across space and time. He’s twenty one, in Arles, finally crowned. He’s fourteen, at Chastillon, on his knees for his uncle. He’s twenty, in Ios, watching a blade sink into Damen’s side. He’s sixteen, all alone, dreaming of revenge.

    Last night Laurent had thrust his arm at Damen, “attend me,” he had commanded, as if Damen weren’t a king in his own right. Last night, Uncle had sat on his bed, played chess with him. “I will always have time for you,” he had reassured Laurent, “even though Auguste has outgrown you.”

    Laurent leans to the side and vomits, violently. His fingers shake as he pushes his hair back, slowly, the room spins into focus. His hair is shorter than he remembers, Damen likes it long. His hair is exactly the same, cut by his nursemaid once a month.

    He is thirteen, at Marlas, and he knows everything.

    Summary

    He takes a breath and fixes truly aggrieved eyes on Laurent. “While we investigate, I need you to be away from the Arles Palace."

    "What?" Laurent's heart drops, "But--"

    "You trust me, don't you, Lo?" Auguste says, urgently, "I need to keep you safe."

    "Brother--"

    "You are second in line for the throne. If anything has to happen to me, you are the only person I'm willing to entrust with Vere. Uncle would ruin her," he says, softly, in a rush. "I need you safe, and the only place you'll be safe is away from Vere. Away from anybody who can harm you."

    "Akielos," Laurent realizes, the answer startlingly clear by Auguste’s tone. “You mean to send me to Akielos.”

    Summary

    The Avengers embark on a dangerous mission that takes a devastating turn—Steve Rogers is killed in action. His body is never recovered, leaving his team to mourn and move on, though some wounds never truly heal. No one feels the loss more than Bucky Barnes, who not only lost his best friend but the man he secretly loved.

    6 years later, during an unexpected call for help, Bucky sees a ghost—Steve Rogers, alive and well. But he’s not the same. He’s living a new life, and a woman by his side. The catch? Steve remembers everything. He knows who he is, what he left behind, and that he chose not to come back.

    Rage, heartbreak, and years of unresolved feelings rise to the surface as Bucky demands answers. Why did Steve let them believe he was dead? And more importantly, why did he let Bucky suffer alone?

    Summary

    The Soldier stutters forward, placing its metal hand upon the bedsheets. "Permission to speak," it croaks.

     

    "Granted." The handler holds its gaze.

     

    "What...what is my mission?"

     

    The handler considers for a moment, then: "Effective immediately, your mission is to obtain optimal levels of hydration, caloric intake, and sleep for at least seven continuous days. Understood?"

     

    The Soldier nods. This is a test of its self-sufficiency. Its new owners want to know what it functions like at peak performance. Furthermore, the Soldier suspects that its owners want it to acclimate to these luxuries.

     

    So they can take them all away again.

    ‘’So, I’ve talked to Steve’’ Tony says.

    Ah, so that's why then. Stark doesn't need him anymore. He’s already convinced Steve enough. Bucky stays silent.

    ‘’And I guess we were wondering, if, you know, you’d be comfortable coming to live with us. At the tower. Steve came back last week, and I’ve talked to T’Challa too. He says if you are ready…’’

    ‘’Okay’’ Bucky agrees almost immediately.

    He likes Wakanda.

    It is peaceful.

    But it is not home.

    Tony tries to be the bigger person (it ends up with Steve and Bucky being in close proximity with each other and the other Avengers every single day) (and Bucky refusing to admit he likes it)

    Summary

    Regulus is in search of change, for something to fill the ever growing void in his chest that has been inside him for as long as he can remember. He leaves Paris and his ballet company behind to move back to London, where his friends, his old company and his brother are waiting for him. He tries to fill the void with all sorts of unhealthy things, but something—rather someone keeps trying to get in the way.

     

    James is happy with his life, he’s good at his job, he loves his friends, he has a nice flat, so why isn’t that enough? Why is the smile that he’s had plastered across his face all his life starting to feel forced? He’s met head on by a force of nature, a storm in the form of a mean, stubborn and ridiculously pretty ballet dancer and he starts to realise what he’s been missing all this time.

    OR

    Regulus is a ballet dancer & James is a simp!
