    Summary

    Olruggio’s love was a death sentence. To be understood by Olruggio, to be completely accepted by him, was the most beautiful executioner's axe in the world. He could not bask in the warm sunlight that was Olruggio’s affection while upholding his promise. The only way forward he could think of was to cut himself free from the strings that bound the two together, to hope the pain of having this negative space follow him everywhere he went was enough to sufficiently stave off the silverwood roots. To abandon his dearest friend.

    ~

    Separated by choice and bound by immeasurable grief, Qifrey and Olruggio attempt to find the edges of themselves through a year and a half of letters — until the silence becomes too loud to bear.

    Summary

    Olruggio does not know Qifrey - beyond that head of hair, which curls around his ears like snowdrift, and that single gleaming eye, and the whispers of Beldaruit's Ward that follow the man everyhere he goes. No, Olruggio doesn't know him.

    But it feels like he should.

     

    or: AU where olruggio is agott and tetia's teacher, qifrey is coco and richeh's teacher, and the two of them never (allegedly) meet until a fateful meeting in Kalhn.

    Summary

    aka Howl's moving castle knockoff but worse (and gay)

    Or: in which Qifrey is Howl, and Olruggio is Calcifer, and unfortunately there is no Sophie, but they have 4 little apprentices - it’s enough to make a family.

    (There's also a damsel in distress, and it’s not Coco. She’s a child, after all.)

    Summary

    Once upon a time, a witch fell in love with a Silverwood tree.

    Or,

    Olruggio starts to cough up blue petals. The flowers are soft, trembling things he knows he should despise. But how can he, when they're the exact shade of the eye belonging to the one he loves most in this world?
