Summary
“I don’t care what it is,” Olruggio says, and is certain of the truth of this, just as he is certain: “I can help. Let me help. Whatever you’ve done, whatever you’re doing, I forgi-“
Qifrey’s hand pushes over his mouth.
--
Qifrey gives Olruggio a lot of mixed signals in very short succession.

Summary
Essek is trying to figure out how to atone for what he has done and forgets to take care of himself. Beau was intending to give a shovel talk, but ends up intervening.
“Well, we could use your help when you’re available. Ideally soon. Caleb said you were coming to visit anyway and you’re welcome to stay with him.”
He twitched, a little ear flick. It just confirmed my suspicions.
His voice was apologetic, but firm: “Could I have a few days? I have another commitment imminently, but then I am happy to help.”
More secrets. Great. I leaned forward, making a show of my scrutiny. “What kind of commitment are we talking?”
His ears flicked down. I was frustrating him. “If you must know, I agreed to help a family with their taxes.”
That was not anywhere on the list of things I expected him to say. “I’m sorry, what?”

An elegant thumb swipes at the corner of Essek’s eye.
“My, you are a beautiful thing, aren’t you?”
Essek’s stomach is churning again. Was this not what he had wanted? To be looked at, to be admired?

Summary
"Unfortunately, our progress has stalled out somewhat," Ikithon says, slowly circling the beacon on its stand. Under any other circumstances, that would be the thing that drew Essek's eye.
Instead, his gaze is fixed on the man sitting in a chair at the circle's center. A picture of misery, he is bound hand and foot to the chair with thick iron cuffs. His face is mottled with bruising, his rust colored hair hangs in limp, tangled clumps, and his clothes are torn and burnt. Wide, frightened eyes the color of daylight sky whip frantically back and forth between them.
Essek knows that face. He knows it all too well. Not two months ago, that face kissed him on the forehead and told him that he was still capable of good.
The bottom drops out of Essek's stomach. Please not him.
--------
After the peace talks at sea, Ikithon approaches Essek with an offer he can't refuse... But dearly wishes he could.

Summary
His skin feels too tight over his body; like his heart is being pulled forward, like it could burst through his sternum.
“What are you doing?” he breathes, barely audible. The words feel like they’re coming from somewhere else.
“Being brave,” Caleb replies.
*
On the eve of Trent’s trial, Caleb calls Essek and asks for a distraction. He doesn’t specify what kind. Essek has always been good at seeing possibilities.

Summary
If Essek were to kill Caleb, he would do it with a spell.
None of the intimate agony of feeling the last flutters of his heart with his own skin. He cannot even afford himself the painful honesty of knowing that if he were to do it, it would be impersonal and practiced, something Essek has done to many before and will do to many others. This knowledge is not enough to stop him imagining it.
In the months following the events of Cognouza and the Somnovem, Essek fails to come to terms with the fact that he is a dangerous man.

Summary
The weapon shudders in Thanatos’s hand, anticipating death. “You must hate me,” he whispers, “to keep doing this to me. To keep making me do this.”
Zagreus is still, and Thanatos finds himself leaning in, chasing the warmth. He hesitates. His scythe shakes in his hand again. Impatient.
“I don’t hate you,” Zagreus says, his voice and his face even, determined. “But I will break you.”
Thanatos as the Asphodel boss AU. It’s snowing on the surface, the Phlegethon burns, and Zagreus’s infernal heat slowly melts through Thanatos’s icy resolve.

Summary
Stede can even tell, in the logical back of his mind, that the things Ed’s saying are kind. He’s forceful, but he’s being— erotic, and intense, in the same ways they usually are.
But— his choices of words, and the combination with the touch, and the shivering bad feelings, it’s— it’s becoming too much, too fast.
Pretty little rich boy, he says, and Stede can see his father behind his eyelids, and can feel blood splattering across his face, and can sense a hand coming to strike across his cheek. They’re all phantoms, long-gone, physical injuries faded with time. Stede had hoped the injuries inside might have gone with them, but it doesn’t feel like the case, now.

Summary
Benvolio's attention was overwhelmingly unconditional and subtle; Mercutio hadn’t looked closely enough to see it until now. He had never noticed the way Ben’s eyes focused intently on his lips, nor the way Ben could barely conceal grins at his jokes, nor the way Ben stumbled over his words at the sight of Mercutio’s dimples.

Summary
"His hair looks even more slick than usual, even blonder than mine and combed backwards with a slight quiff on the top of his head. I hate his hair. Truly I do. I also desperately want to rake my fingers through it while my tongue is in his mouth, and for the life of me, I don’t know why. Being a thirteen-year-old boy is by far the worst thing to ever happen to me. Being a thirteen-year-old boy and desperately fancying Richard Peele is just plain unfair."
The fic literally no one asked for... a deep dive into Monty's relationship with Richard Peele.
