Summary
“So, Brit pick,” she drawls, and laughter trails up from the audience, “you have a name to go with your rude attitude and -’ she pauses and circles the air head-level in front of him “ - ridiculously gorgeous face?”
“Charles,” he says, and tags on with a little stooped bow, “Miss. At your service.” He can be a little playful, too.
“Oh, at my service?” Barbara echoes flirtatiously, playing the audience for more laughs. She steps forward to grab his chin, forcing him to raise his eyes to meet hers. From so close, he can smell her, hair powder and makeup and a bit of musk from where the stage lights must make her sweat in her sequin frock.
Her fingers are warm on his face, her grip strong. Something zings in the air between them - chemistry, he thinks, thrilled. He knows he's grinning, but so is she, unable to hide her delight. “We’ll see if you can be of service,” she announces dryly, to roaring laughter, painted lips curled into a smile, her voice dripping with innuendo.

Summary
Assistant to Death, Edwin Payne, fucked up on his first solo job: firstly, he arrived too early, and then the charismatic boy who was dying stubbornly refused to go to his afterlife. Being transferred to the Lost and Found's data processing department was humiliating enough, but he realised Death must be having a laugh at his expense when he met his assigned training partner...
Or: Edwin and Charles become reluctant colleagues, escape their boring desk jobs to found a Detective Agency and stumble into a hell of a lot of trouble along the way…

Summary
Edwin's voice comes to him like a whisper on the breeze.
“Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.And fare thee weel, my only luve!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
Though it were ten thousand mile.”He cries then, clinging to the branches of the tree outside Edwin's window, for their lost future, for everything that wasn't and would never be. When his tears finally run dry, he climbs down the tree and strips by the pond.
“You can't just use our pond whenever the fancy takes you,” Edwin says primly, playful indignation in his tone.
“Can't I?” Charles says, and dives in. The water is freezing, a chilling embrace.

Summary
Even Charles can appreciate the subtleties of the choreography: Fire is boisterous, with great, choppy gestures, Water is in a blue outfit and flows gracefully, Earth stays close to the ground, with sure, stompy movements. It's Air, though, that captivates Charles’s attention: the boy is tall and graceful and pale, and seems to float, his feet barely touching the ground, showcasing astonishing feats of skill and athleticism. He spins and jumps so high, it seems as if he has wings.

Summary
It was hell seeing Edwin at school in the hallways, because Charles felt like a beacon was shining on himself permanently, singling him out, a giant sign hanging over his head, proclaiming in bold, neon letters, “Edwin Payne, I’m gagging for your cock!”
His crush had taken on the flavour of obsession. He was equally eager and afraid of Edwin noticing him, which was unlikely. Edwin Payne had never noticed him before.

Short alive!au with actual plot featuring both Edwin's demonic sacrifice and Charles's brush with hypothermia.
Oh, and the filthiest blowjob I could manage. -

Summary

Summary
After Port Townsend, Edwin tries to handle not only the fallout from his unrequited love confession, but also the inconvenient longing the Cat King has evoked in him. When Charles kisses him out of the blue, it sends them spiralling down a confusing path of lust and self-discovery.
To make matters worse, their newest case turns out to be more complicated and demanding than they initially thought. Together with Niko and Crystal, they set out to help Will, a ghost who wants them to matchmake for his still living boyfriend, so he can move on to the afterlife.
Their investigation leads them from cutely bespoke bookshops to gay clubs, and as far as the Dreaming, forcing them to confront some truths about themselves and step out of their comfort zone, once and for all.

Summary
He dreamed of Sarcean. Of his long robes swishing across darkly marbled floor, the whisper of his silken hair on a pillow, the ghost of his breath on James’ shoulder, raising goosebumps.
He wasn’t James, he was Anharion, and the weight of the collar was heavy around his neck. Dressed in soft, loose garments, he entered a room to find Sarcean already waiting, his long frame sprawled out on a chaise, the remnants of his meal on a silver platter next to him on a small side table.
“My love,” Sarcean greeted him, and the sound of his smooth, velvety voice travelled through him, leaving James breathless, fear and desire warring in his belly.
“My king,” he heard himself answer, and even while internally he recoiled in anxiety, his dream-self moved inexplicably closer to the man before him.

Summary
The land would be cold and dark if you were gone, he thought desperately, briefly closing his eyes to scatter other images, of empty blue eyes, a body slumped to the ground, precious blood spreading and soaking the sand underneath. “If I’m gone, they’ll execute you as a traitor,” he pressed out, voicing his biggest fear.
He felt Anharion pull from his embrace and he opened his eyes to find him staring back at him. His blue eyes shone fiercely, defiantly, but his voice was trembling with emotion. “And I will follow you into death,” Anharion said thickly, “and I will smile, knowing I’ll see you again.”

Summary
It’s a shockwave, travelling through Arthur’s body, a tidal wave rolling through his limbs, a thousand fists to his stomach. It rips him apart in an instant and moulds him back together just as quickly, leaving him gobsmacked and buzzing and overwhelmed.
The attraction is so sudden, so intense, that he feels crippled in the aftermath. He’s never felt anything like that before, never experienced an emotion like this. Arthur wishes he could pretend it’s anything but what it is, but it’s undeniable. He’s swept away by lust and a staggering sense of rightness, but worst of all, by a terrible knowing. It’s love-at-first-sight and it’s just as horrible, as exciting and as overwhelming as people have claimed. Arthur attempts to deny it right away, because this isn’t supposed to happen. He’s been so good at being indifferent.

Summary
After a toxic relationship, Arthur is afraid of getting hurt again, but then he meets Gwen, a scriptwriter he collaborates with in one of his film classes. To win her heart, he plans to cook her the best vegan food she has ever had. The idea would be brilliant, but Arthur is neither vegan, nor can he cook. In a desperate move, he enlists the help of Merlin, the obnoxious barista who works at his favourite coffee shop by day, and is a vegan food vlogger by night.
With his past as a young offender, and a history of addiction, Merlin can’t find a job as a chef, and his dream of opening his own restaurant someday seems unreachable. He pours all his passion into his food videos, but while his recipes and personality have what it takes, his video making skills are subpar at best.
Arthur and Merlin put their animosity aside and strike a deal: Merlin will cook for Gwen, and Arthur will claim he made the food, while in exchange, Arthur will help Merlin make better food videos.
It seems the perfect way to meet everyone's needs …

Summary
It had been a pleasant surprise for Arthur to find out that his cute colleague, with the geeky t-shirts, liked it a little rough and kinky. In fact, Merlin loved being entered with little preparation; got off on Arthur saying the filthiest shit; and the sounds he made when Arthur fucked him drove Arthur wild. Arthur had never been so gone about someone before.
