    Summary

    "Your uncle has died."

    It wasn't the worst news Hans had ever heard. In fact, it was the start of a beautiful, wealthy life. But there is a catch: to inherit the family fortune, Hans needs a spouse.

    Uncle Hanush hated many things: joy, spending money, and especially Hans's "lifestyle." So, naturally, Hans decides the best way to honor his uncle’s memory is to marry a man.

    Enter Henry. Ideally straight, conveniently poor, living right next door, and... surprisingly hung.
    It’s a simple business transaction. Surely, nothing could go wrong between a dramatic heir fueled by spite and his well-endowed handyman neighbor who insists he doesn't like men.

    (Or: A Modern AU where Hans needs a fake husband to spite his dead homophobic uncle, and Henry needs cash.)

    Summary

    When Henry is called to the tournament in Kuttenburg, he’s not just facing rivals, but also his honor, loyalty, and heart. On the other hand, Sir Hans decides to join his loyal companion for this thrilling event.

    Summary

    In which a pampered noble gets humbled by life and his bodyguard, and now must learn how to survive, work, and maybe even fall in love — one mishap at a time.

    Or, in short, an alternative take on KCD2, in which the whiny lord didn't leave us (or he tried to, but failed miserably).

    Summary

    Hans shuts his eyes, and he sees Henry.

    He thinks, He has shoulders like an ox that go brown as walnuts in the summer sun.

    He thinks, His eyes crinkle a little at the corners when he laughs. And when he laughs, it’s a soft, low wobble that scratches my ears, and I’d say any stupid jest to hear it again.

    He thinks, He has clever hands. There is something about watching them work a buckle or nock an arrow or mend a wayward hem that could bewitch a man.

    ***

    All the times Henry and Hans are separated, from alternating perspectives. Inspired by the line, "We spend too little time together."
