    Summary

    Agott was very, very good at being a witch. Most importantly, she was good at drawing magic: that was all that being a witch was about, really, that and following the rules. But the rules were easy to follow, as long as she didn’t try to break them.

    It wasn’t until much, much later that she realized she’d been wrong, and cursed the wild, optimistic innocence of the girl she had been for all she was worth.

    Summary

    The Knights’ cloaks are the color of an open wound against the walls of the atelier, their pennants like exposed bones. They look at him like Olruggio has committed a crime he cannot remember. Maybe he has.

    They do not tell him who Qifrey is, even when he asks. They do not tell him much of anything.

    Olruggio thinks he can figure it out from the empty space.

    Summary

    Agott was in love with her best friend, and she needed a plan.

    A plan on how to keep living with her feelings, but without acting sappy or gross or overly affectionate. A plan that would let her appreciate Coco’s kindness without making it painfully obvious that she liked her. A plan that wouldn’t end in a straight-up romantic confession on her part.

    You couldn’t just tell your best friend you liked them. Everyone knew that.


    Sixteen-year-old Agott devises a system for dealing with a crush. It goes about as well as one might expect.

    Summary

    “Since you and your friend did not enter for a collaborative display, what you did technically counts as interfering with another applicant's display – an argument can be made to consider it sabotage. Do you understand what I mean, Miss Agott?”

    Or, a hilltop conversation about the legal implications of Agott helping Coco in the middle of her display.

    Summary

    “Tetia, please don’t talk yourself into doing something you don’t want to," Qifrey says, an intensity she doesn't see often settling into his expression. "I support you, of course, I know you only want to make people happy, but I cannot condone it if the price is your own happiness.”

    She shakes her head — she doesn’t want to cry any more today, but she can feel the ache in the back of her throat again — and she says, “I think something’s wrong with me.”

    or, Tetia's a real Witch now, striking out on her own, making people happy one spell at a time. so, why isn't she happy?

    Summary

    Finally, Chuuya eloquently said, “I don’t want to date you.”
    Dazai huffed. “Yeah, well, I’m not too thrilled at the idea of having a crazy rockstar boyfriend. But you got us into this mess, you need to help us get out of it.”
    Had Dazai gone insane? Nakahara Chuuya and Dazai Osamu, dating? Had Chuuya not made it clear through the dozens of direct and indirect meetings that he despised Dazai with every fiber in his body.

    Featuring: drunk tweets, falling in love, horrendous song writing, cheesy interviews, learning how to "fake it," and Chuuya getting over the headache that is Dazai. Not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    It’s happening more and more often these days.
    He’s been living with this curse as long as he can remember, the ache behind his eyes never falling below a certain point, a constant reminder of what will happen if he ever once allows himself to set down all it is he carries. He’s been furious, terrified, heartbroken; he’s let his hands grow so tainted that he hesitates to touch the world, let the black in his soul harm those closest to him, let it drive him to secrets and cruelties and forbidden spells in pursuit of a cure, of answers, of just one more day to try. Qifrey has ruined beautiful things and prevented new ones from being born, has rent himself into a shape that breaks through the world, has stolen each new moment of his life or paid for it in blood and memories. He has crafted a life of suffering and placed everything he cares about atop its precarious sill.
    In the past month, Qifrey has had to fight back blooms and branches more times than in the entire year preceding it, and he has no idea why.

    Summary

    “Oh, what the fuck?” both she and the strange boy breathe out at the same time. 

    Natalie groans, rubbing her eyes. “I’m too high for this,” she grumbles. 

    He points at her, almost accusingly. “I’m not,” he says.

    “Gold star to the hallucination, then,” she deadpans, pinching the bridge of her nose. The shock of knocking over the pot sobered her enough that she feels less like she’s floating through time, but clearly she’s still tripping on something if she’s seeing him now. 

    That, or it’s not the fault of the drugs. But she’d rather not consider that possibility. 

    “I’m not the hallucination,” he says. “You are.”

    Or: Five times Natalie meets the Gabe that could've lived, if she hadn't.

    He pushes himself up onto his elbows to look at her. Searches her face. Sometimes when his gaze gets desperate like that, he looks just like their mom. “I’m not trying to hurt you,” he says.

    She scoffs. “You ruined my life.”

    Summary

    “Come on, Olly.” Qifrey rolled onto his stomach to fix Olruggio squarely in his sights. The last few years of boyhood had rounded out Qifrey's sharpest edges, leaving him mostly handsome and amiable. From time to time, though, he still got this look in his eye like an impending tsunami.

    Olruggio had long since given up any illusions of outrunning the destruction.

    --

    Before the atelier and the apprentices, young Olruggio and Qifrey have recently passed the fourth, and final, test to become full-fledged witches. With their newfound freedom from the Great Hall, they decide to pay a visit to Ghodrey in the north--Olruggio's hometown.

    Between dealing with his embarrassing relatives and planning for life as an adult witch, Olruggio grapples with growing desires towards his best friend. He is unsure what the future holds for them and whether he can follow Qifrey wherever it takes him.

    Summary

    Modern AU. More a collection of standalone episodes than a multi-chapter fic with a "plot" or a "point".

    Olruggio is an indie artist and otaku, and Quifrey is a botanist trying to become a teacher. They've known each other forever because of course they have.

    This fic is very silly.

    Summary

    They'd only just ambled into the Kalhn textile shop when Qifrey caught sight of the short young woman working. She had a round face, rosy cheeks, flaxen hair. Her eyes had locked on Olruggio as soon as they’d entered.

    Olruggio, for his part, thumbed through dyed wool samples as though he hadn't noticed. He likely wouldn't.

    But Qifrey always noticed. Sometimes this left him as a voyeur: staring at someone staring at someone else. But other times, like today, his fixed presence at Olruggio’s side made him an involved party. There was always a delay, then a moment in which Qifrey became visible and the women realized he might be of help. Some of them were too scared to approach Olruggio outright—they’d built up a more intimidating version of him in their heads, had never heard him laugh wildly or watched dimples form when he smiled. Instead, they’d set their sights on Qifrey. Talk to him, or at least look at him imploringly, as though getting in his good graces might earn them the Torch’s attention.

    He never felt like helping them.

    or: Qifrey gets jealous.

    Summary

    “You know,” Olruggio says, roughly. He doesn’t move to take Qifrey’s hand again. “You know. You can’t not know, Qifrey.”

    Qifrey just looks at him. “I do.”

    The rain continues falling.

    (And so Olruggio forgets. And he inevitably figures it out again, because of course he does; and he inevitably chooses to forget again, and again, and again, because his heart is always the same. The story is always the same. Like a tale from under a silverwood tree, like a myth from the days of old, not so much tied by the constraints of the narrative so much as being narrative itself. Antigone must bury her brother. Iphigenia must be put to death. At a thousand turns, in a thousand ways, Orpheus must turn, and he must look, again, and again.

    And Olruggio forgets.)

    There is an old story about a witch and a silverwood tree.

    “Keep the similarities to a minimum, alright, Coco?” Qifrey says, timing the joking self-deprecating laugh just right, giving her a smile so she thinks nothing’s wrong.

    “I do resemble you, then?”
