    Summary

    THELYSS: I think I could have floated beside him in stasis forever, ignoring the obvious. Once he offered the precise object of my desire, which I had been concealing from even myself, I panicked.

    INTERVIEWER: And what did you say to him?

    THELYSS: We fought about it. We had to. In the Nein, it is prerequisite for doing anything.

    WIDOGAST: In the end, it was about fear, as it always is.

    — The Mighty Nein's rocket to fame involves more drama, mystery, abuse, sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll than any columnist can resist, but media accounts until now have been mostly secondhand. Tabloids and vultures run with the facts in the opposite direction, smearing half-truths and outrageous accusations onto any blank space, taking silence for admission.

    It definitely doesn’t help that Thelyss admitted to stealing the Mouthpiece of the Luxon on national telellusion.

    The following timeline contextualizes Widogast and Thelyss’s individual music careers, their collaborations, and the events surrounding a) the crimes of Volstrucker Records CEO Trent Ikithon, and b) Ikithon and Martinet Ludinus Da’leth’s undiscussed roles in the Mouthpiece of the Luxon Scandal.

    Summary

    “So!”
    Jester Lavorre smiles from where she stands behind the kitchen island. The heat from her lighting setup has the room warm despite the open windows and the autumn breeze. Sitting directly in front of her is a wooden bucket full of apples, round and rich and red-gold, the most camera friendly balanced on the top of the pile.
    “This month: apples!”

    Summary

    Caleb must be a Duke for this mission, so that leaves Molly to be his... companion.

    You may be wondering: is this the kind of indulgent writing that includes sleeping furs, large tankards of mead, and snuggling for warmth?

    Dear reader, it is exactly that.

    Summary

    A fine dusting of chalk and charcoal coated his hands and chest from countless attempts to correct his blasted diagrams, a layer of grime and dried sweat sitting heavily on his skin. He ran shaking fingers over the bead of force hidden amongst his earrings and the nightshade capsule sewn into his shirt collar. The elven chain shirt sandwiched between his outer and undershirt rattled softly as he moved.
    Resigning himself to another restless night, he stared up at the deep maroon canopy overhead.

    Essek dreamt of the Nein.

     

    AKA Essek tugs on the strings of fate a little too hard and gives both himself and the Nein a bit of perspective as a result.

    Summary

    The ringing note of a concert A is played by the oboe, echoing on its own in the space. It’s picked up by the wind section, followed rapidly by the brass, and the familiar feeling of an orchestra calibrating takes over Caleb. The tonal adjustments as each person brings their instrument into alignment sinks into him and something inside Caleb shifts in recognition as Essek leads the strings into their own tuning.

    It’s like something is waking up, like something unfurling and firing across long-unused paths of memory. His hands shake slightly, as he raises his bow and joins them, fingers fumbling against the pegs and fine tuners that give him control over his instrument.

    ----

    Essek Thelyss is a leading violinist, his spot as Shadowhand of the Rosohna Philharmonic Orchestra has been uncontested for over a decade. Caleb Widogast is a recent arrival to the city, convinced by his friends to audition for one of the vacant violinist positions.

    After starting off on the wrong foot, Caleb and Essek get to slowly know each other, discover what brings them joy, create while defying expectations, and find out that what they can produce together may just be better than anything they can do separately.

    Summary

    Essek thought he knew the meaning of devotion, but watching Caleb he has now come to understand it. He sees it in the way Caleb operates, in every decision he makes. A clear devotion to his goals and his people and his passions.

    When did Essek begin to feel it himself?

    For decades Essek has danced with false devotion. False devotion to the Queen, to the Luxon, to his country. Yet, he is beginning to feel that the King of the Empire, Caleb Widogast, is a man he could dedicate a devout devotion to.

    Summary

    Essek Thelyss comes to Soltryce to deliver guest lectures and, on the side, cultivate the brand new Archmage of Domestic Protections. He’s hoping that Caleb Widogast will oblige him by picking up his predecessor’s interest in conspiring to steal Luxon beacons, after so rudely murdering Da’leth mere weeks before the culmination of their schemes.

    Essek is prepared for espionage. He is not prepared to find a love that will change the course of his life.

    Summary

    With the world saved and Essek given clemency for his crimes, now the wizards just have to deal with rogue scourgers, their pasts, den politics, and the pesky issue of life expectancy.

    In addition to deleted and alternate scenes from "Two Roads Diverged" this now continues the story of Essek and Caleb navigating their roles as "Examples of International Unity" while also trying to have a genuine relationship as two people with a lot of baggage. Expect drama, humor, action, smut, and eventual cameos by everyone's favorite drow himbo.

    Your typical boy-meets-boy-in-an-anonymous-internet-chatroom-and-doesn't-realize-it's-Victor-Fucking-Nikiforov-for-literal-years story.

    The format is based on phlintandsteel's fabulous sweetsilversub, only mine is about mental illness and not loving, consensual, healthy BDSM because I am a cheerful motherfucker and she already did it the best anyway.

    Please read the tags and mind your triggers. Shit goes pear-shaped in Chapter 4 8 9 10??? Maybe??? I DON'T EVEN KNOW ANYMORE ASK PHICHIT.

    Summary

    True happiness springs from self-knowledge and virtue, which suggests that understanding yourself is key to a fulfilling life. All virtues are forms of knowledge, and without this awareness, you cannot achieve genuine happiness.

    At least that's what Socrates says.

    Simply put, Ben agrees.

    Summary

    time travel fics set in the era of the Golden Trio, so the run of the regular books. most will follow the same story line, but i might throw in some other fics like my "seer" harry idea, as long as there is time travel and it takes place in this era.

    updates are extremely sporadic

    the one shot storyline is as follows:
    "The Chaos Class"
    "Oops! All Slytherins!"
    "Around the World (in Seven Years)"
    "Moonwalking and Other Insane Things the Muggles Did While We Weren't Looking"
    "A Dubious Quantity of Eggs" (the final one for the loop group)

    “Are you the punk who’s bothering my brother?”

    Takeshi looks up from lacing his skates and his first thought is that it’s rich for someone with three piercings in each ear who’s wearing heavy boots and ripped jeans to call him punk and then her words wash over him and the next thought is, ‘Oh no, I’m dead.’
    -
    Or, five times someone tried to give Nishigori Takeshi a clue and the one time it finally clicked.
