Axels Are Cool, But The Lutz Is My Favorite by clovedreams

Summary
Belle and Wise Arna are New Eridu’s premier ice dancers. They dazzle crowds with their technically demanding yet artistic programs, and their careers are looking bright.
During the latest international competition, Wise starts receiving gifts from a mysterious sender. He has no idea whom they’re from, but he hardly has time to think about it after a series of disasters: Coach is hospitalized, his suppressed emotions blow up in his face, and he and Belle get into a fight. They’re mentally at their lowest—and yet, they muster the will to skate as planned.
To their surprise, Coach enlists their friends to deliver in her stead her signature gift: a custom bouquet of blue and orange carnations. Wise’s head is a mess of grief, but he’s grateful he has his family and friends.
And then a second bouquet lands on the ice.

Summary
Kel and Sunny were finally in college. Now that they were rooming together, Kel felt every night would be like their many sleepovers throughout childhood and high school. He couldn’t wait to dive into his college experience, starting with sleeping on the top bunk. But Sunny doesn’t quite feel the same.

Summary
sforzando - make a strong, sudden accent
syncopation - a placement of rhythmic stresses or accents where they wouldn't normally occur
Lately, Sunny didn’t know what to think. There was an awful lot more pink stuff in the Othermart, like flowers and balloons, and the candy store was practically bursting with cute-looking sweets. Valentine’s Day always came and went the same way in the ten years Sunny was old enough to know what it was. But for some reason that escaped his understanding, this year’s Valentine’s Day… didn’t. Wouldn’t.

I read this fic a long time ago and I just recently came across it again. beautiful prose, fascinating character stories for the both of them that fit this setting. and the way the plot escalates is absolutely thrilling

Summary
And maybe he was too exhausted to think properly. Or his brain was too hazy from being rudely roused awake from a half-sleeping state. Or maybe he’s just so damn tired of Lighter running away that he didn’t waste any time to swing his leg over and straddle the man.
Below him, Lighter went deathly still.
Took every escape route out of the man, and they would have no choice but to stay.
“Now, Lighter,” Wise began with a smile. “Do you think I haven’t noticed all those occasions you hugged me was only when I’m synced with Eous?”
Lighter’s hands on his waist twitched. Wise hoped he’s not going to throw him on reflex and dash away despite the locked door.
He didn't want to resort to the ropes he hid underneath his bed.
“So, why do you refuse to hug me directly?”
[Or: Lighter keeps hugging (read: be as physically close as possible) Wise when he’s in Eous form but can’t seem to do so in person.]

Summary
“Ever since I met you, I have been trying to pin down this strange feeling that you give me. It and you both are utterly incomprehensible.” A stray bead of sweat traces Caelus’ jaw. “I want to try my hand at understanding it.”
The butterfly-blinks are back, beating at Caelus’ eyes in a fluttering flurry. “By—by kissing me?”
-
(Danheng feels strange, and Caelus is strange. Surely, there's a connection.)

Summary
It's then that Wise gets his wires crossed, distracted as he is by petting Inky while running on low sleep due to his insomnia. Instead of saying "thank you" like a normal person would, when he takes the pouch from Lighter's hand, he ends up saying,
"Good boy."
Lighter freezes.
Wise blinks, eyeing the sudden pause.
Then he thinks.
And—
"Oh," he stammers, flustered. "I didn't mean—sorry, I got distracted petting Inky. I meant 'thank you', not…not that."
Wise and Lighter hang out after watching a film together in Wise's room. Shenanigans ensue.

WHAT AN ADORABLE FIC!!! love the easy banter between the two. and I love the characterization of wise being prone to overthinking and not good with romance (or even letting people in). so it's nice to see how perfectly they fit well together... and the bet made me laugh.

Summary
“Mind if I touch you?” Lighter murmurs, cheek brushing against Wise’s hair. “Just on the chin.”
Wise can’t help from smiling. Work is work so he’s used to a lot of inconveniences—people doing as they like with him, people being rude, people assuming things without his permission—but Lighter’s proving to be a breath of fresh air in such a short amount of time.
He’s not a professional model, but he’s standing out as one of the best coworkers Wise has had so far.
“I like your initiative,” he murmurs, head tilting away from the camera. “Go on, touch me.”
Wise is used to the hardships of modeling, but that doesn't mean he doesn't dislike it when his model partners bail on him.
Enter Lighter Lorenz.
