Summary
In the days of kings and castles; of knights and oaths, Stanley, a boy from the humble wheat fields of the vale, becomes a knight for Prince Xeno, heir to the throne. The years are cruel, and forbidden love is not the only thing that bloodies their hands.
As Xeno develops a lust for power, eager to break the chains that bind them, Senku, a young lord hailed as “the future king” by those in the south, chases a threat much greater than mere squabbles for the throne—a mysterious green light on the horizon, harnessed by an enemy who would see them all dead.
In a fight for power and freedom, sacrifices are a necessity. To love and live without restraint, Xeno must decide which oaths are meant to be broken . . . and which are worth dying for.
StanXeno Medieval-Fantasy AU. Inspired by ASOIAF/Game of Thrones.

Summary
── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
It's a once-in-a-lifetime event; a hallmark of parting adolescence. The graduating class of 1985's high school senior prom.
Determined to join the military, Stanley is forced to keep his relationship a secret. Only one place, unromantic as it may be, offers enough privacy for the two to share a dance.
There's no mood lighting or shimmering tinsel here—just a mop and some gym supplies—but it doesn't matter. They could dance along the Seine, in the mountains of Peru, or beneath a golden Caldera sunset, and Xeno would still outshine it all. Like the strength of the sun against a sea of stars, his warm embrace is all-encompassing. It's home.
Stanley feels like a coward for hiding it.

Stanley takes a girl to prom, hooks up with his boyfriend in the closet. (…No pun intended.)

Summary
── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
The time machine's accelerator whirred at top speeds. Suddenly, a blinding white light enveloped the laboratory, drowning its inhabitants in a harsh glow.
Then, it was calm.
As the two scientists spun around, their jaws dropped in perfect unison. Stanley was gone, leaving someone else in his place: a boy, only ten or eleven years old, who looked feverishly around the room. With his golden hair and the stick of a lollipop flitting between his teeth, it took Senku little time to realize who he was. Xeno, on the other hand, would remember that face better than his own—no matter how many thousands of years it'd been since he'd seen it.
── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
While tampering with their time machine, Xeno and Senku come face to face with a living memory. Mistakes are cuter than expected. -

"A glass observatory makes for an elegant prison cell, wouldn’t you agree?"
Long claws brush Senku's hair, still dripping wet, away from his bruised face.
"I find it truly fitting for you, Senku. You keep your heart inside a glass cage as well, do you not? Protected and well-guarded as it may be, those walls are easy to see through. Your feelings aren't as hidden as you think. It’s why your followers so willingly trust you, but it is also your weakness."
Xeno runs a single finger along Senku's chin as he leans forward, eyes narrowing.
"What happens when it shatters?"
── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
AU where Senku has been captured instead of sniped.

Summary
Despite all of Senku’s posturing and skeptical diatribes on the subject of love—or anything even slightly vulnerable—he’s pretty easy to see through. And never in his life has Gen been so tempted to kiss someone on the cheek, just to see if he can get away with it.
Maybe someday.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
Gen catches Senku lost in a memory.

Summary
Set during the height of Mondstadt’s tulip frenzy—when a single bulb can rival the price of a wealthy man’s home—the tulip-cultivating Gunnhildr family is presented with a rare opportunity: the chance to purchase a Florist.
Florists grow flowers from their flesh, and this one—Flins—produces the exceedingly rare Snowland Fae, a black-petaled tulip no grower in Mondstadt has ever managed to cultivate. With his bulbs, the Gunnhildrs could secure their future.
But when something far more costly than a flower begins to grow between Flins and the family’s adopted son, Varka, the two men must reconcile the family’s survival with the reality of Florists as commodities . . . and the truth that their bond is as forbidden as it is vital.
Or: a VarFlins gardenverse AU inspired by the Dutch “Tulip Mania” of the 1630s featuring omegaverse-esque dynamics, body horror, and star-crossed lovers.

Summary
“Lookin’ sharp,” Reno purrs as he slinks up to Rude's side. “You want a dance?”
//
Reno tries to make ends meet dancing at one of Wall Market's most exclusive clubs, but outrunning his debts (and his past) proves harder than he'd like. But life's not all bad—at least the new bouncer Tseng hired is tall, hot, and lives just around the corner.

Summary
Why had he not seen it before now? What ghost of hospitality and good nature possessed him atop the Light—what siren called out to him with longing, drawing him nearer by her song? A yearning, born in the presence of a will-o’-the-wisp, and gone just as quickly, faerie’ing away all sense and reason.
But then he spots him.
Squinting against the sun, a figure, faint at first, gathers shape in the glare. Flins is too far away to tell with any certainty, but it is a far more natural form that has caught his eye—one of a man slumped upon a drift.
Or: Flins rescues Varka from a shipwreck, and they must survive a month on the island together while tending the lighthouse.
Varka x Flins (Varflins, KnightLight)
