    Summary

    "I...." He breathed out through his nose. At last, he decided he simply needed to say it before it utterly consumed him. So, perhaps a tad louder than he wished, he finally said, "I wish to kiss Wriothesley."

    At once, there was that tightness in his chest, that heat in the pit of his stomach, that dizzying feeling in his head.

    "Oh, Monsieur..." Sedene said softly, and he wasn't quite sure how to take that response.

    --

    This is a fic about Neuvillette and Wriothesley, both virgins, never having kissed anyone, never having any romantic experience at all for their own particular reasons, falling in love. And it is, more specifically, about Wriothesley's own insecurity, and needing Neuvillette to gently pull down the walls he's put up to protect himself.

    Summary

    With a heavy sigh, Kaveh buried his face in his pillow. All of his romantic ideals, as usual, were quashed by the one man he actually yearned for such affections from - a marriage for the sake of fucking tax deductions.

    Though it made sense in a cold, rational way, such a logical and disinterested proposal for Kaveh to willingly sacrifice his heart for nothing more than mora cut deep into his chest. And worst of all... Alhaitham was unaware that Kaveh’s heart could never even belong to anyone but him - that he was already the sole benefactor of Kaveh’s silent longing, having stolen Kaveh’s heart against his will long ago.

    Kaveh curled around his pillow as if the soft cotton of his pillowcase could offer a reprieve from the turmoil churning deep in his stomach. He’d long since made peace with his unrequited love for Alhaitham, resigning himself to a lifetime of suppressed yearning - but this? This was torture, plain and simple, demanding mental gymnastics that Kaveh wasn’t confident he was flexible enough to contort himself into.

    Summary

    On that fateful day of marriage between one Lord Diluc Ragnvindr, Falcon of the Blaze and Guardian of Mondstadt, and Prince Aether, Keeper of the Sun and Sword of Celestia, there is no celebration...

     

    Diluc would do far more than marry a stranger if it meant Mondstadt would be safe from the threat of the Abyss. Fortunately, it seems that all the universe wants from him this time is to tolerate his promised husband. And care for him. And bring their families together. And fall in love.

    This was never part of the plan.

    Summary

    Xiao is the name he was given upon his new contract with the great dragon Rex Lapis, but before that, he was Alatus, a weak adeptus twisted to the whim of the God of Dreams. The blood on his hands and karmic debt on his shoulders corrupt his Heart and drive him toward death, until he happens across an otherworldly light stumbling through a lonely valley.

    Aether has visited and fled more worlds than he can count, careful never to get attached, but this is the first time he's truly been trapped on any one of them, stripped of his power and split from his sister. He is certain he will starve and fade, chained by his immortality to a life of unending agony, unable to even put himself to rest— until he meets a lost and achingly gentle adeptus who brings him new hope.

    It will be a long time before either of them learn how to receive the love they are given.

    Summary

    Bruce’s brain takes a moment to reboot. “Your parents are in South America?”

    “Yes.” 

    He’s not sure why he’s so surprised – the Drakes are known for their work in archeology, and not much of that can be done locally. Still, he assumed that they took Timothy with them when they left the country for work. It seems a shame to leave him with a nanny this close to Christmas. 

    “Okay,” he says, erasing the numbers typed into his phone. “What’s your nanny’s number, then?”

    “My what?” Timothy looks scandalized. 

    “Your babysitter? Whoever is in charge of you while your parents are gone,” he clarifies. 

    I’m in charge of me when my parents are gone,” Timothy says proudly, his little chest puffing out. “I’m the Man of the House.” 

    AKA

    Tim gets to spend Christmas with the Waynes! This will not have lasting consequences, I'm sure.
