    Summary

    It shouldn't be a surprise, really, if the knights think punching each other in the arm is a viable and efficient way of cheering each other up, that they also think insulting each other is a perfectly good way to show affection. Insults are compliments, threats are reassurances, and actual bodily harm is considered good manners or at the very least the mark of genuine companionship. Basically, take everything Merlin's ever been taught about how you actually treat the people you care about and flip it on its head, because stars know that if any one of these men actually behave as though being nice won't incinerate them, the world will actually end.

    Alright, maybe he's being a bit harsh.

    Summary

    It's been over five hundred years since Adrian Tepes last saw Trevor Belmont or Sypha Belnades, but he'd never forget their faces. So when they turn up in his life again without explanation or any memory of their past selves, it looks at first as though he's somehow been given a second chance at happiness.

    But not all is well. Fell creatures walk the earth, monsters stirring that haven't been seen since Dracula's great war on humanity. People are going missing, and Adrian has been hearing curious whispers from the part of the world that used to be Wallachia. So as he grows closer to his long-lost partners, he can't help but wonder if what brings them to him is a blessing, or a curse.

    Summary

    Deus ex machina, (Latin: “god from the machine”) a person or thing that appears or is introduced into a situation suddenly and unexpectedly and provides an artificial or contrived solution to an apparently insoluble difficulty.

    In another life, Vincent would have taken the life of Manon Vacher and Rody Lamoree. In another life, Vincent would have cut Rody up into pieces and feasted upon his remains. In another life, Vincent would have descended into madness, having committed indescribable evil for the most selfish of reasons.

    What would have happened had he given in to those diabolic urges? If he hadn't hesitated? If that unexpected event never took place? If he had carried out his plans with no shame or remorse?

    Let us hope the world never finds out.

    ── .✦

    TLDR: An AU where Vincent never killed Manon.

    Summary

    “Yen. You’ve been such a good mother.”
    “… Say that again.”
    Mind made up, Geralt takes a shaky breath to brace himself, and tries again:
    “You’re such a good mother to my child.”
