    Summary

    Michael took a hit off the joint. He didn’t really know how to do it and ended up coughing and gagging as the smoke stayed in his lungs too long, and all of the boys continued with their Greek chorus of jeers and laughter, except David. He moved around Michael like a shark, eyes never leaving him, boring into him actually, as if he could see the stuff he was made of.
    “It gets easier,” was all he said through his pleasant smile. “The first time is always the hardest.”

    Summary

    “What are you here for, Michael?” he asks. His voice is low and mocking, but it doesn’t sound like he’s only mocking Michael. It sounds like he’s mocking himself. Like he’s mocking both of them at the same time.

    Michael is silent. He doesn’t know.

    He had to.

    He had to see David. He got bitten and he had to see David.

    When Michael gets bitten and turned by a werewolf, no pack will have him because of his previous association with vampires, so he goes to the only supernatural being he knows—David—even though they hate each other. Don't they? It's kind of hard to tell.

    Summary

    Michael had a lot going on, okay?

    He was running from a past that he still wasn’t ready to confront, he’d just been transplanted across states, and he was still overcome with the constant, dreadful feeling that he just had to get out.

    He also might be turning into a vampire. That’s probably the big one.

    The point being, he didn’t have much time to think about his little brother.

    Or, Sam Emerson coming out fic inspired by the fact that I just got to see the musical live and someone on tumblr asking for one.

    Summary

    He'd go without forever if it means getting David to himself like this.

    Summary

    “It’s just about practice,” David says slowly. “And I can give you that.”

    “What do you mean?” Michael asks. He’s turned back to face David. A promising sign.

    “I mean, you can practice. On me.” He bares his teeth, bites at the empty air, and turns it into a winning smile. Angles his face to the side and jerks a thumb at his own neck. “Maybe it’ll help, to get a feel for it first. Might make the real thing easier.”

    “Yeah, right,” Michael says unsteadily. “It’s your blood that got me into this mess in the first place.”

    His eyes are locked on David’s neck, though. David can see his throat working as he swallows hard. There’re the logical objections, and then there’s what even the mention of blood can conjure up for them. Logic doesn’t really stand a chance.

    “So what’s the harm in a little more?” David says casually.

    Summary

    Michael spends a few more nights than he expected in the company of the boys, doing his best to hold onto his humanity. The strange little group ends up being more than he bargained for, and that’s before he finds out about Max – or rather, before Max finds out about him.

    (David has plans Max doesn’t necessarily like, Laddie gets co-parented by a gang of casually polyamorous vampires, and Michael is in so far over his head he can’t process any of it. The E rating is there for a reason.)

    Summary

    “It was a mis—”

    “Don't,” Daeron says, sharply. He sounds like his father, and he hates it, hates the way Valarr must hear it too, how he takes his own step back as if from a blow.

    Summary

    He’d dreamed the night before of a dragon laying over the top of him, pinning him to his front so completely that he could hardly move. But it had not been like when he had seen his uncle’s death in Ser Duncan’s arms, dreadful and foreboding and dark. He only knew that he had been unbearably hot, and that—strangely—the smell of orange blossoms had been choking him.

    Daeron knew what he might like for the dream to mean, when the smell of flowers had been taunting him for days. That and the feel of Valarr’s shoulder beneath his hand. That and how soft Kiera’s skin had been against his fingertips. But that was no promise, he knew. For all that his dreams came true, his wishes rarely did.

    𖤓𖤓𖤓

    A week at Summerhall before they forced themselves to King's Landing with the weight of Baelor's death on their shoulders was likely to be for the best. A chance to grieve silently, before being forced to do so with the court. A chance to breathe, maybe, for the first time in a week. A chance to find comfort in one another, no matter how foolish it may be.

    Summary

    Seven. In the lands of Westeros, no number is more important than seven. Seven Kingdoms. Seven Hells. Seven Gods.

    Yet despite the immense importance of religion in a medieval society, the Faith of the Seven is one of the more barebones parts of the setting and lacks depth; there is very little history behind the faith and even less about its holidays, its practices and places of worship and all the other things that help make a religion into a religion. The Song of the Seven Sided Star is not a story, not in the traditional sense, but is rather a complete reimagining of the Faith of the Seven...and the impact it has to create a radically different Westeros where the knights of the Faith ride to protect their brothers and sisters of the Faith from Ironborn reavers, Northern invaders and Essosi slavers who serve a Freehold reborn under Aegon Targaryen and his sister wives.

    First written for AlternateHistory.com, who rather like this encyclopedic style writing!

    Summary

    This is a flaming dumpster filled with CSS and HTML experiments. It's not instructional, but I post the code and my own explanations for both our sakes. Feel free to steal the code or ask me questions- I don't know what I'm doing. :)

    (Pics are mine though)

    Chapter 5 is probably what you're looking for ;)

    I'm not going to say I take requests, but I'm always looking for inspiration.

    It seems I've broken Ao3 yet again. I can no longer add more code to my work skin so we're moving on to part two!

    "You fought well," Baelor says, extending his hand, and Dunk takes it gratefully. It feels like an anchor, gives him something to focus on besides all the pain brimming up in his body.

    Summary

    Dunk had once gotten a fortune from a dreamspeaker in Flea Bottom: You're going to get punched in the face a lot. A more accurate warning would have been: You're going to punch and be punched in the face lots of times by the love of your life. And you'll both probably deserve it.

    Five times when Dunk and Lyonel met, fought, and kissed before Ashford + once when only one of those things happened.

    Summary

    He sighed and collapsed into his armchair. Even from across the room, she could feel in her bones the putrid smell of ale on his breath. "I don't want to. I have to."

    "What?" she asked

    He had a dead look in his eyes. If she didn't know better, she may have been speaking to a living corpse. "I can't win. I can't escape. I can't scheme my way out. The Old Gods have cursed me to do this over and again, on until there's nothing left to lift the sword. I shatter myself against the walls, on and on, until it's over or I've gone mad in trying to do the impossible. The only escape is death, and I can never die."
