    Summary

    ...the monk placed his hand on Diarmuid's back and shoved him.

    Diarmuid stumbled foward with a cry of surprise, flailing, falling to his knees at the stranger's feet. He loomed over Diarmuid, his expression obscured by the sun shining in Diarmuid's eyes. With one quick movement, the stranger moved toward Brother Geraldus, gripped his sword with both hands, and drove it, point down, into the white sand. Then, he grabbed Diarmuid by the arm and hauled him to his feet.

    "What are you doing?" Diarmuid asked, shrugging him off. He was trembling and hated himself for it.

    The man grimaced. He cast a questioning glance back at Brother Geraldus, who hissed, "Go with him, boy! It's a trade!"

    A trade? Diarmuid swallowed. The sword—for himself? For what reason? "What does he want with me?"

    ---

    Historical Fantasy AU. Diarmuid is taken from his monastery by a strange, silent warrior named David. He is under the impression that he is now David's servant, while, unbeknownst to him, David thinks that he's just made Diarmuid his husband.

    Summary

    “Colin?"

    “Yeah, sweeth– Pen?"

    She laughs at his slip of tongue, wanting to make a crack at how she's not so sweet after how she asked him to pound into her until she was sore—but she knows her laugh is masking how she truly feels. The rules are to protect her, because Penelope knows this will never last, not in the long run. Colin's never resented them, or if he does, he hides it well.

    “Have you heard of subspace?” Penelope finally blurts out.

    Penelope and Colin are friends with increasingly frequent benefits. One day, she asks him if he'll get her to subspace.

    As a friend.

    Summary

    The sweltering heat would have been clue enough, all else aside, that the ship they boarded was no human one. That, and the strange, lingering echo of their footsteps, too loud and too hard, sketching out a ceiling far taller and broader than needed to accommodate a human frame. Lan was struck, once again, by what a foreign place his new home was to be. 

    Here there be dragons, he mused to himself, on the teetering edge of hysteria. 

    "You were always fated to perish to dragonfire," came the answering whisper in his mind, immediate and unwelcome as a recoil.

    Summary

    For packs who are truly lucky, they will have a triad leading them, the mates of three versus of two, a Queen, a General and a Pacifist. These matings are very rare, and often only between those touched by the Gods- either by their blood or blessed by them- most commonly both. The three offer a doubling of strengths as well as a clearer division of labor. The Queen brings wisdom and strength, the General is cunning and loyal, and the Pacifist healing, diplomacy, and creativity. This is why the Cephellians prospered, for they were ruled by such a triad, all three blessed by the Goddess Athena to help them fulfill and nurture the gifts she gave to the ones who proved themselves to her.

    The Warrior and Pacifist have been away from their kingdom and pack for 17 long years. After nine days on constant vigil, clinging to their final chance to go home, Odysseus is thrown into an out-of-cycle heat. Despite Zeus' warnings, Poseidon decides to attack, to breed Odysseus and force him to give him a son to replace the one he injured. Unfortunately for Poseidon, Polites will show why even the King of the Gods dare not take his mate. What happens when the Pacifist attacks more than with his words.
