  1. Summary

    When one Blackmadhi longfic writer says to another, "OMG, can you imagine what would happen if my Simon met your Nahyuta," and 75k+ words of character study and flirty shenanigans promptly ensue.

    Otherwise known as the "AU Boyfriend Swap"

    (You don't need to have read either *Layers Shed* or *This Side of Paradise* to understand/enjoy these; it's simple Blackmadhi goodness!)

    Summary

    “I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t want to betray you, to betray what we had, but if I didn’t, I would be betraying the kingdom, my bloodline, my duty, everything I was raised to do! The entire city was counting on me to…to bring you to justice, and you know how much I care about the city-"

    “More than me?” Bal interrupts softly—no hint of anger, only a fragile hurt, and Ambrosius doesn’t need to see to know the exact expression of tentative sadness on his face.

    Panic lances through him like lightning.

    “No,” he says quickly, sitting up to look at Bal, “no…not more than you.”

     

    Never more than you.

     

    He would’ve kissed him here, before, to really drive the point home. Now, he’s not sure he has the right.

    Bal studies him, expression conflicted, as if he wants to believe him but doesn’t. Ambrosius hates himself.

    "I was counting on you too," Bal says, with an edge of accusation, though it is purely out of despair.

    Even now, he refuses to hate him.

    Summary

    In fact, Ambrosius does just fine at love languages.

    (Or: Bal and Ambrosius's first meeting through to after the wall comes down, one love language at a time.)

    ‘Try gripping it more like—here,’ Ambrosius says, and sheathes his own sword, taking a step closer.

    Bal’s about to protest that he’s fine, he doesn’t need help. But Ambrosius’s fingers hover above his on the sword’s hilt, and when he asks, ‘May I?’ suddenly the last thing Bal wants is to tell him no.

    He feels so acutely aware of the gentle fingers on his as they adjust his grip carefully on the handle. No one’s ever really been gentle or careful with him before, so he doesn’t know if it’s always like this, like there’s shimmery warmth dancing between them, little pinpoints of electricity everywhere Ambrosius’s fingertips touch his skin.

    Summary

    Everything about psychology professor Simon Blackquill rubs philosophy professor Nahyuta Sahdmadhi the wrong way. From his teaching style to his mocking attitude to his dark eyes and low voice and ability to see right through him, everything about him is infuriating. Yes, Nahyuta definitely despises Professor Blackquill and isn't drawn to him or captivated by him or interested in him one bit. At all.
