Summary
Every time she closed her eyes she saw her blade carving into Booker’s arm, and she hated him and hated herself and in all of that she thought she could understand how he felt at the end. Like life itself was suffocating, that all you want, all you can think of, is to make it stop.
She could make it stop.

Summary
She was a child of Night, swaddled in moonbeams, powdered in stardust. The celestial spheres sang her to sleep, and she raced comets across the starfields, laughing, swam and tumbled in the surf of supernovas. And so she grew, wrapped in her mother’s loving embrace, until she took a post at one of the countless doors to the Temple of Night.
Nile gradually met others like Andromache. It took centuries; her threshold was one of many, and the exiled souls were few. They remembered nothing of her or the doorway when they returned to their lives, as the veil of death was impermeable, but their memories came back when they did; and so she gradually got to know them. By the time she met them, they were accustomed to their strange fate, but she did wonder what it was like the first time an exiled soul arrived at the threshold. How would she know to turn them back?
Eventually, she found out. -

Summary
To maintain a cover story, Booker propositions another man and invites him to a threesome. Joke the first: Booker has no clue who this guy is. Joke the second: he’s inclined to say yes. Joke the third: so is Nile.
They’ll do something other than fuck about it eventually, but first they have to save a bunch of people, as usual.

Summary
“How old are you?” she asked. “And if you’re going to lie, I prefer you inflate the figure.”
~~~
While she was active duty Nile had given plenty of thought to the kind of good time she wanted to have when she got home. She’d certainly earned a strings-free liaison with an older man who wasn’t going to look after her, baby her, assume he knew what she wanted better than she did, or bring any baggage to the arrangement.
Someone without a heart to break would suit her fine.
Maybe she should have gone to therapy. Instead she hired a French escort with crow’s feet at the corners of his pretty eyes.

Summary
Onmund was sometimes frustrated by his own abilities, or lack of them, but Jace was on another level; he was frustrated by magic itself. He could rail for hours about it, or sulk, and then he'd get an idea and spend weeks furiously trying to make it work. Onmund was afraid that one of these days he was going to jump off the College roof in an attempt to fly.

Summary
RE-UPLOAD
When Michelle won the National Lottery, life became slightly easier for Eggsy, but no less complicated. Their new social circle neither likes nor respects them, despite Michelle's best efforts, and for Eggsy the feeling is mutual. Meeting the toffs up close only confirms what he's always suspected; money does not make you a gentleman.
It does, however, allow you to rent one. An Ossan Rental/Reverse Sugar Daddy AU.

Summary
Marcurio considers the Bee and Barb his true home. They miss him when he’s gone, they celebrate when he returns, and he has his pick of feisty adventuresses and alluring travellers perceptive enough not to be bamboozled by Brynjolf’s frankly amateurish attempts to be charming. And then Dyce shows up, quickly becoming a beloved regular, and makes it clear he has no need for a master of the arcane.
Until he inevitably does. Marcurio can’t quite bring himself to turn Dyce down, but he definitely doesn’t intend to give him full service.
