    Summary

    Hynce first found out about Henry when he was eight years old.
    He didn’t mean to pry into Father’s private belongings, but while browsing the contents of the bookshelves he came across a prettily painted wooden box and, well, he couldn’t not open it.
    It contained a stack of letters penned undoubtedly by Father’s hand.
    All started with: “My dearest, Henry”

    ~***~

    Hans's son spends years reading unsent letters from Hans to a mysterious friend named Henry.
    At last, he decides to set off in search for him.

    Summary

    Viktor felt his eye twitch. For his own sanity, he allowed his lips to curve into a slow, sly smile. “Talis, I promise you that this game is one you cannot win.”

    “What game is that?”

    “The game of who loved whom more deeply.” He paused to lean in, languidly stretching until their noses brushed, and murmured a teasing, “Keep up.”

    Jayce and Viktor face eternity together, floating in the desolate arcane void. After everything they’ve been through, they can finally confess to each other and bask in their deep, mutual love. But glimpses into their shared memories raise the question:

    Who fell in love harder?

    Join these two idiot geniuses as they commandeer the arcane void to take a literal trip down memory lane—enduring failed flirtation, aborted courting, and the general miasma of comical obliviousness that led to eight long years of yearning.

    Summary

    “The nights are getting colder,” he landed on. “You’ll warm my bed from now on.”

    Henry’s eyes widened, and he raised an eyebrow. He quickly glanced at Hanush, but his lack of reaction made Henry’s gaze return to Hans. The nobleman wasn’t even sure his uncle had heard them, staring at the fire absentmindedly as he was.

    “What?” Henry repeated, this time dumbfounded.

    “Well, it's your duty as my squire.”

    Henry tilted his head as he continued to stare. Hans couldn’t hide his amusement at his confusion. As he looked into them, he felt stricken once again by just how blue his best friend’s eyes were. It was especially noticeable when his big, goofy eyes were held wide open as they were, matching the look of a begging puppy. Adorable.

    “Sorry, my lord, but… Could you clarify what you mean by warming your bed?”
