Summary
Dissection and reflection of the self and the post-self via poetry.
Upon winsome, manikin'd gentle men, incise my features
To paint the fine bones of my face as I implore of thee—
Is this, a version so bravely hewn, yet allow’d
When to be beautiful is to offend—to be forbidden- Language:

Summary
“Answer something for me now,” Din said. He slipped two fingers under Cobb's low-slung belt and tugged him forward. Untucked the front of his shirt, slid his hand up the back to feel the dip of Cobb's spine. “Does it bother you… that I'm leaving tomorrow?”
Cobb brought one hand up to the side of Din’s neck, grip firm and warm and skin-seeking. Din wanted to flinch, he should, but he pulled Cobb closer, didn’t he? At a single graze of Cobb’s thumb along his jaw, Din’s nerves lit up. He wanted this, desired Cobb, and he couldn’t really deny it any longer—had already choked off that part of himself that needed to remain unknown. Only for tonight.
“No.” The hush of Cobb's voice pulled at the edges of that void within Din again, spinning sutures to close it up. “Not lookin’ for strings, don't worry.”
There were many things Cobb had told Din over the past few days, which Din suspected of being embellishments or recollection made prettier for an altruistic stranger's benefit. But this might've been the first time Din was sure Cobb was outright lying to him.

Din denies himself things, and Cobb catches feelings.

Summary
Just as he was getting used to his new position as the commander of the Inquisition’s army, a massive upheaval came when Cullen met—under perhaps some of the worst circumstances two people could hope to meet—Aridhel Lavellan, the only other survivor of the Inquisitor’s clan following their grim fate in Wycome.
A fate sealed with Cullen’s poor discernment in the matter. If this was the Maker’s will, he must have the cruelest sense of humour.
But now, he was growing used to Aridhel's company as well. Far too used to it, maybe.
At Felan’s behest, Aridhel had stayed on with the Inquisition, and thereupon became a sharp thorn in Cullen’s side. That irritation eventually dulled with time, and they’d forged an unusual camaraderie. His fighting prowess proved a boon to the Inquisition’s army, and Cullen…well, he found he quite enjoyed running their soldiers through drills with Aridhel by his side.
He wasn’t sure when his feelings deepened past tenuous friendship, nor what he should do about it, if anything at all. Cullen was not even certain whether what he was feeling was merely confused admiration for the man, guilt, or something more than a passing infatuation. -

Summary
Ever look in the mirror, wishing you were someone else?
Sure you have, probably.
Born in a different body?
Perhaps.
Now, has someone inspired a visceral sort of envy in you? A brand of covetous admiration you can't quite put your finger on? An inspirational need that simultaneously makes you uncomfortable and shines a light on just how unwell you fit in your own too taut skin...

A Love Like Blood by DesMotsComme_Violence (P0ETICA), poetica (P0ETICA)
Fandom Vampyr (Video Game)
13 Dec 2020
Summary
This started out as an amorphous idea that slowly took shape... then went off the rails.
A post-canon, character-driven McReid series/original AU showing their "adventures" through the years, mainly meant to explore their relationship in a way that is authentic to who they are (while I also attempt to breathe more life into Geoffrey).

Summary
I wasn't too happy with how the writers treated Morgan: first, she was this kick-ass lady who read people like books, and then she was this smug b*tch who baited Kent... so I decided to diverge from that canon.
This is tagged as a casefic - which it is - but I used it as a pretext to examine Joe's relationship with Kent, Morgan and Anderson. But especially with Kent...
I borrowed some references from S4 and the plot will make more sense to you if you have watched the show in its entirety. Enjoy!Disclaimer: I am not a therapist, policeman, pathologist, GP, rabbi, detective, etc, so please kindly suspend your disbelief. I have tagged for explicit sex and some of it under-negotiated, but it's ALL CONSENSUAL, and all between Chandler/Kent.
There are plenty of references to real facts of history, art, etc: some are accurate, some are less so...I do not own the characters although I wish I did.
