Summary
His hands take the offered peanut butter jar and Wriothesley wonders if this Alpha has experienced the opposite. A nearly lanky swimmer’s build as opposed to broad shoulders and muscle, and tall to boot, since he’s nearly eye to eye with Wriothesley. Plus, this Alpha is so pretty. Wriothesley’s never seen an Alpha so pretty.
“Be mine,” Wriothesley starts, brain skipping before he manages to catch himself, his cheeks burning as he corrects himself. “The peanut butter. Was meant to be mine. It rolled. Away.” He finishes lamely. “Thanks.”
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
Wriothesley is a pregnant Omega that was more than content to start a family on his own, but a chance meeting with the Alpha Neuvillette in a grocery store thanks to a runaway peanut butter jar changes that.
Gift written for the Sovereign's Lair 2026 Valentine's Exchange

Summary
After suffering from what the doctors all said were stress-related dreams and hallucinations, Neuvillette goes on forced sabbatical until he could get a favorable medical evaluation that would allow him to return to work. In the meantime, he purchased property in the quiet mountains of the Beryl Region and moved from his condo to the countryside and assured Furina that he would be available for consultation or assistance if needed.
However the quiet sabbatical he had expected, which he had meant to spend fixing up the old house and clearing the old property, turned out to be not as quiet as he expected when he meets the enigmatic Wriothesley. As time passes, he learns that there is more to the area—and Wriothesley in particular—than he first thought. But to address that would mean acknowledging a few too many strange things like ghosts and the echoes of ancient wars and even older gods and mountains built from the bones of ancient creatures.
All of those things were crazy, crazier even than those awful stress dreams that Neuvillette used to have of screaming skies and blood rain. Because there was no such thing as ghosts and ancient gods cursed into human forms…right?

Summary
A bleak look crossed Wriothesley’s face and Neuvillette realized that he was being allowed to see such an expression. Though it caused something unidentifiable in him to ache like a physical pain, Neuvillette was honored to be allowed to see such a rare, fragile thing. “Because it is better to have him in my life in any capacity,” he said, “than not at all.”

A thousand fingerprints on the surfaces of who I am by SkyScribbles
Fandom Critical Role (Web Series)
02 Oct 2020
Summary
'Changing is hard. For most of us, it happens little by little in in the smallest moments and we don’t notice it, we don’t choose it. But looking yourself in the face and deciding to be different – that is hard. You are unpicking threads of who you are that were put in place more than a century ago.'
(A collection of Essek-centric oneshots, following a hypothetical redemption journey post-Episode 97. Features Shadowgast and Essek's platonic relationships with the Nein. The fics are arranged in rough chronological order and are loosely interconnected, but they can all be read individually. This series was written during the 2020 hiatus, so is not canon compliant beyond episode 100.)

Summary
“This is not a negotiation.” Deirta Thelyss’s voice cracked the air like a thunderclap, sharp enough that even her ever-bustling flock of attendants twitched. “You will agree to this marriage, or I will have you cast from Den Thelyss for dereliction of duty. Is that clear?”
Essek held himself stiffly, his shoulders rising in affront. A dangerous lapse of control, considering the woman standing before him, and one he would berate himself for later in the privacy of his tower, but he couldn’t help it. To be bartered off as—as a diplomatic representative of all things. It was absurd, insulting. Was the prestige his accomplishments brought to the den not enough? The Bright Queen herself had awarded him the title of Shadowhand for the advancements he’d made to the field of dunamancy, advancements that had secured countless victories in the war. Why should he have to upend his entire life to accommodate some human he’d never even met?
