    Summary

    "The Fount sat alone in his chamber. Books were everywhere, some stacked in neat piles that almost reached the ceiling, others in messy piles mixed with papers and journals and pens and compasses and maps. Too many letters sat on his desk unanswered, work unattended to. He knows he needs to get it done but he just can't get himself to do it.

    .

    He knew he was gone. He has known it for years now. Now he knew he was beyond the event horizon, the light of the stars, of his soul, of whatever was left inside of him, was all being swallowed up at the speed of light and he was powerless to stop it. A spectator to his own demise.

    .
    .
    .

    The story of how The Fount Fell, and a glimpse into who Fell right beside him.

    Summary

    He smiled because his face knew how.

    “I’m fine.”

    Far away, bruised and half-frozen on a Fire Nation ship, Zuko folded over with a sound he could not swallow.

    The words appeared over his heart.

    Not near it.

    Over it.

    I’m fine.

    They burned like lightning.

    Zuko pressed his palm to them and stared down, breathing hard.

    Summary

    "Tell me, Sir Michael, do they ever let you out of that suit? Or do you sleep in it to hide the fact that there's nothing underneath but duty?"

    Mike doesn’t blink. "I sleep in it so that if someone like you tries to sneak into the Prince's quarters at night, they find six inches of steel instead of a door."

    or;

    Jealous personal knight Mike Wheeler will shatter anyone who dares to touch his prince. That includes slimy Lords from the South who want to court him.

    Summary

    Some call love a curse, some call love a thief

    He offered Will the universe, the things he longed for. Truth. Clarity. Relief. If only he would just listen.

    After Vecna’s return, Will begins to hear a voice that sounds like his own. It tells him the things he already believes: that he is a burden, that love is conditional, that care is given only when it's earned.

    And slowly, Will lets it become the strongest voice in his head.

    I’ll taste the devil’s tears / drink from his soul, but I'll never give up you.

     [Set post-S5E4 “Sorcerer”]
