Summary
Sojiro has heard this voice enough through TV interviews, quiet nights in the cafe, and bouncing off the stairwell from Akira’s old room to know exactly who this is. “Huh, yeah, you should come to the cafe. Still got your blend and everything.”
Akechi turns to face him, hands balled up at his sides, spine ramrod straight. “That would be…” He trails off, considering his response and settles with, “Appreciated.”
Or: Akechi returns to Leblanc after everything.

Summary
“‘Cause you’re hot.” Caleb pulls such a stank face at that it makes Beau bust out laughing, “Not to me dumbass, just like objectively. You’ve got that whole confident older dude thing going on, but also you’ve got freckles and a cat that follows you around 24/7 which makes you seem approachable. Plus sometimes you do complicated magic as easy as other people breathe, and what’s hotter than wizards?”

Summary
He shows up out of the blue one day at a dinner party, wearing the name ‘King’ like a badge of honor, and spouting some of the most obvious lies she’s ever heard. He says he’s from some small town out west, yet he doesn’t seem to know any real details. He describes his hometown like someone would talk about some foreign city they once read about in a book, like a landscape portrait in black and white, the essentials are all there, but the personality isn’t.

Summary
Beau took the dome for granted back when they used that shit every night. Totally slipped her mind that it wasn’t just a warm space, but also a protected space until the Traveler himself, an old-ass fey pseudo-god, couldn’t even get through it when Caleb decided not to let him.
It’s happening again too with their mansion. It was all luster and nervous excitement and cat butlers for the first couple weeks, but now it’s just a given. When they’re all tapped out from a long day and Caleb has to inform the Nein that they have to stay at an Inn for the night, there’s a general gentle grumbling because they’re all spoiled as hell.
or: sometimes people you love show their love through magic to cope

Summary
After a long, bloody war, Draco Malfoy just wants to do something good with his life for a change, and resolves to become a healer. But magical society refuses to make it easy for him, and an increasingly dramatic series of events—all of them instigated by Harry Potter—get him kicked out of med school, force him to live in exile, and threaten to destroy the new life he’s trying so desperately to build.
But Harry isn’t instigating anything—at least not on purpose. He’s just trying to work up the nerve to ask him out. His efforts don’t appear to be going great.

Summary
He kept up his grumbling all the way to the door, where he was both stupid and tired enough to forgo checking the peephole before ripping it open.
“It better be important-” he snapped, the perfect picture of a disgruntled military commander, but the rest of the tirade died thick and sour on his tongue.
On his doorstep, his hand still raised, finger pointed as if to abuse the doorbell yet again, stood a young blond boy, drenched to the bone and looking at him like he had lost his mind.
“Yuriy?” he breathed and rubbed at his eyes once more to make sure the child wasn't a mirage of some sort.
