Summary
Essek asks, “How much do you know about drow biology?”
“Not much, I’m afraid.”
“Essentially, there was a point far back in drow history where we had— a, a more rigid, erm, breeding cycle—” and Caleb heart stops before fluttering back to life, pounding like a bird’s wing. “I’ve, ah, I was testing a spell and it— did not go as I had hoped.
“I’ve— sort of triggered it, it seems.”

Summary
Essek's tone is academic, clinical, cold. “It would be pointless to deny that I am attracted to you. And I wouldn’t object if what happened last night would happen again. But I would be grateful if we could keep it between us.”
There’s a beat, then Caleb nods. “I’m fine with keeping it quiet and casual.”
Or how cold, ruthless and lonely Essek Thelyss (a brilliant student with a secret) accidentally makes some friends and falls in love: a Shadowgast college AU.

Summary
[the_shadowhand]
I would be willing to help you come up with ideas, if you want, so long as you’re willing to teach me your ways with dirty talk.
It’s… hard for me, I suppose. I never know what to say, let alone with the presence you have.[catsire]
Why Herr Shadowhand, are you flirting?[the_shadowhand]
Not intentionally. More… admiring a skill you have that I lack.Caleb is not disappointed. He’s not disappointed when they meet and The Shadowhand has the same casual fake flirty tone as his text. He’s not disappointed when they end up filming together, his feelings most definitely not returned. Caleb can live with the heat of his fixation on the other man as they, somehow, become friends beyond their work. He can handle himself just fine.
It doesn’t matter that The Shadowhand is gorgeous and brilliant besides. He likes Caleb well enough and there could be hope, if Caleb wasn’t such a fucking mess. They can be friends, and coworkers of a strange sort. It’s fine.
It’s fine.
Until it’s not.
