Summary
“I never considered it waiting around,” Miles says. “I never expected it to become anything more. You were giving me all that you were capable of, and—maybe it wasn’t exactly in the form I hoped for, but it was more than enough.”
“Miles,” says Phoenix, giddy. “That’s fucked up.”

Summary
“You’d like him, you know,” Thomas said.
“I do like him,” Aldo said automatically, twirling the stem of his wine glass, looking into its deep red like it was a scrying mirror.
“I mean as a friend. If you spent more time with him. You have a lot in common.”
“Do we use the same shampoo?” asked Aldo, raising an eyebrow. Thomas gave him a warning look but his mouth was tugging up.
“You’re both stubborn,” he said bluntly.

Cardinals like Thomas Lawrence and Aldo Bellini know all too well how slowly things move within the walls of the Vatican. But with Vincent Benítez's election cracking their world open, and the new Pope cutting away the old branches to make room for the new, both find that change is flooding in everywhere, mostly within themselves.

Summary
As Cardinal-Deacon, Thomas Lawrence is the papal confessor.
He does not wish for it to be anyone else. This is but one of the reasons he retains his post. He misses the late Holy Father still, but Innocentius XIV is someone he cannot stop himself from serving. He feels, sometimes, as though he has been waiting for this man his whole life. He no longer speaks of resignation, but feels buoyed with spiritual energy, empowered by the Pope’s most divine leadership, by a life full of worship.
It is almost amusing, then, to hear the little sins of the Universal Church’s Supreme Pontiff.

Summary
“The contract is simple,” Rex Lapis tells him. “You, and any power you posses as a Harbinger, will lend yourself fully to ensuring Liyue is capable of protecting itself within my absence. Tying up any business I had left on Teyvat will ensure my spirit can pass on without any complications. For your trouble, you will no longer have to bear my haunting and I will not inform the Qixing through any supernatural means that you were the one to kill me.”
“That’s blackmail. You’re blackmailing me.” Childe says, gaze hard.
“You murdered me.”
Childe pauses. “Ah. Yeah.” He did do that.Bookmarked by smallscarecrow

Summary
When Ajax becomes possessed by a ghost, he is driven towards a certain funeral home that eventually takes him in. They all grow closer in the aftermath, but Ajax craves to be more with a certain consultant that won his heart from the moment he laid eyes upon him.
This is mostly to easily tie the original start from the whumptober fic to the multi-chapter fic building off of it.

Summary
Original Prompt: "Strictly movie!verse, please!
A few pages back there’s a prompt about an Italian lullaby, in case you haven’t read it or do not know the lullaby, the lyrics say that the children that misbehave will be left in l'Uomo Nero (aka the Boogeyman)’s care for a month. Now, there’s a more popular version of the lullaby that replaces the ‘month’ with a 'year’, but a year is a lot of time…especially for children.
So what if the Boogeyman is not only a caretaker but becomes to these children a sort of familiar figure, some sort of, say, badass grampa or mentor or a combination of the two: strict and cold at times, but caring an interested in the children’s wellbeing and resolved to teach them why fear is important and other important lessons because 'the Guardians won’t always be able to protect you’ (it should also be noted that in Italy Jack Frost, Sandman and the Easter Bunny are mostly unknown...[cut for length]"For this I basically did the optional bonus of Sandy finding Pitch trying to protect the children from wild nightmares. And the subject line said that Blacksand was A-okay so that’s what this is, hooray! And I got a little carried away with the length but I’m sure that’s all right.
