    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    The fog comes back.

    Nothing else has found its way into their safe little haven yet, but the fog does, creeping through the cracks of their cabin, blanketing them in thick, heavy billows.

    Jon is there every time, he's there to pull Martin back when he gets lost, bleary eyes and hands so transparent Jon's fingers glide right through when he reaches for them.

    "Martin", he says, forcing a shaky smile on his lips as he tries to hold onto the warmth Martin's name elicits in him. "Martin? Come on. Come back to me."

    "Jon?" His name echoes, the mist thickening.

    "Yes", Jon says emphatically. "I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere without you. You're not alone anymore, Martin, remember?"

    Martin blinks, something sparking up in his eyes, but the cold fog sets heavily around them, blurring Jon's vision.

    "No!" Jon reaches out, won't let himself lose sight of Martin ever again, he won't let him slip away. "No, you can't have him!" he yells into the cold white all around. "He's not yours to claim!"

    ~oOo~

    Or, the one where Jon and Martin try to find what happiness they can, despite the Lonely looming, the Eye watching, and their own doubts weighing them down.

    Summary

    Gerard Keay grew up alone in the woods with no one for company but his mother and the magic that ran through his veins. On the night of his 20th birthday, his mother disappears. Determined to find out what happened to her, he sets out on a journey that will have him tangled up in the lives and destinies of many strange characters.

    A prince enmeshed in political intrigue beyond his knowledge. A temple-student burdened by an increasing sense of loneliness. A fae creature bound to the wrong realm and the royal knight it's entangled with. An astronomer with a sour disposition. A merchant's daughter longing for more. A royal librarian (in-training) with a hunger for the truth. A royal physician who just wants his life to go back to normal. A traveling bard with a flair for the dramatic, and one with a revolutionary bent. An old sorcereress who just wants to retire in peace. And a king with ill-intent.

    Amid colorful characters, dark conspiracies, miscommunication and fear, and a prophecy that only spells doom, Gerry has a lot to learn if he's going to learn the truth behind his mother's disappearance, and change the fabric of fate while they're at it.

    Summary

    The fact that six mercenaries and a weasel have stowed away on the highest-security vessel in the Dynasty’s fleet is, technically, a serious problem that bodes poorly for the rest of their journey. But Essek is delighted. He’d been dreading a long and tense voyage to Mutalos, without any company except for a skeleton crew comprised mostly of military personnel, the awkward spare scourger, and his—

    It feels strange, to think of Becke as his wife. Even calling her his enemy feels too intimate.

    (In which Essek agrees to a political marriage to ensure intergalactic peace and keep himself alive, only to discover that his wife has married him for exactly the opposite reason.)
