    Summary

    It feels silly to call it grief—after all, he’s not really dead, just gone.

    Well, he’s also dead, Natalie supposes, but the Gabe Goodman who died sixteen years ago isn’t the same one she longs to see tumble through the kitchen window. That Gabe Goodman has only ever haunted her with his absence; the one she misses is the one who only ever wanted to be held, the one she wishes she had just one more chance to hold. 

    Natalie misses her brother.

    ---
    Or: Natalie and Gabe, after everything.

    Summary

    He took almost nothing when he left. A flute he couldn't bring himself to open. A notebook. Some money hidden in a coat lining.

    He didn't expect anyone to come looking.

    (Or: Wylan Van Eck is found, and then - slowly, imperfectly, one real thing at a time - he learns what it means to stay.)

    Summary

    Nina Zenik is a vet med student who's almost done with her clinical rotations... but she's also secretly a very powerful witch. When someone brings a cursed, injured werewolf into the animal hospital, Nina decides to try to save his life, despite the bitter hatred that exists between wolves and witches. She enlists the help of her housemates, Jesper (who's also a witch), Inej (who's fae), and Kaz (who may or may not be a vampire). But breaking this curse requires more than Nina bargained for, and time is running out. Can the Crows save the werewolf before it's too late? More importantly, can they do it under the nose of their all-too-human housemate, Wylan? And--perhaps the most important question of all--will Nina finally get some decent waffles?

    Written for the 2023 Grishaverse Big Bang. Updates Sundays.

    Summary

    Sometimes, very late at night, lying only a wall away from one of his closest friends, he wonders what it would be like to tell someone. Maybe it’s finally time to let someone in on even the deepest parts of himself. He falls asleep to the idea, letting the concept play out in a way that isn’t as tragic as he expects it to be in reality. Disappointment engulfs him in the morning when he knows he won’t do it anyway.

    Summary

    No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.
