    Summary

    Fig presented the contract with a flourish. “Alright! Everybody sign the fancy contract!” She passed the paper and pencil down. “Fabian and Riz must convincingly fake-date for one month without revealing that it’s fake or bailing out of the challenge. Then, they will dramatically break up. If they can successfully do this, Adaine, Gorgug, Kristen and I will receive our punishments. If they don’t, they get their punishments.”

    “I can’t believe I’m getting roped into this somehow,” Riz said as he put his signature in. “I don’t know how I got to this point in my life and I want to know how to stop it from ever happening again.”

    After a series of escalating events, Fabian and Riz find themselves in a bet with the other Bad Kids to prove they can convince the school they're dating for a month. It's stupid, childish, and a lot of fun. Riz is freshly out of a sexuality crisis and does not need another one, thank you very much. And Fabian is fascinated by the whole thing, but he's one hundred percent, extremely aware that the fake relationship is just that: fake. Clearly, nothing can go wrong.

    OR, my obligatory fake dating contribution to the Fabriz nation 🫡

    Summary

    "It seems like it might be worse than you think it is.”
    Fabian snorts, savours the thought for a moment.
    “Yeah. I guess you could say that.”

    Or: Fabian Aramais Seacaster and the five stages of (desperate, inevitable, soul-crushing) pining.

    Summary

    The first thing Riz noticed, upon entering his office, was that one of the inner doors was ajar. The door leading to his private office, the door which he had 100% locked when he’d left this morning, hung open, looking, for all the world, like someone had shouldered their way through it. Detective hunch warring with natural paranoia, Riz set his hand lightly on his arquebus, ready to draw at the first – or rather, second – sign of trouble. He crept towards the entryway, and peered around the doorframe.

    “I want you to know,” Fabian said, “that I am not going to apologize.”

    Summary

    “I cannot be in love with Riz Gukgak,” Fabian says. “I cannot be in love with The Ball. Under no circumstances can that be a thing that is happening.”

    Across the room, sitting in Riz’s chair, her feet up on Riz’s desk, ninety percent of her attention on one of Riz’s case files open in her lap, Aelwyn does the incredibly helpful thing of saying, “Uh-huh.”
