    Summary

    Hollander stepped closer to the windowsill. Between a pair of empty designer vases sat a cheap ceramic lucky cat, white, with one paw raised. Hollander brushed his thumb over a small chip in the glaze. Somehow, looking was never enough for him. Whenever he liked something – the picture in the living room, the leaf, now this cat – he reached out and touched. Ilya remembered how, the night of their first hook-up, Hollander had touched him first too: fingers curling around Ilya’s arm, as though physical contact were the only way to make sure he was real.

    ***

    House fic! Ilya longs for a home house. (Un)fortunately, his hockey nemesis is a hopeless real estate and architecture nerd.

    A reimagining of the drought years (2011-13 - less of a drought in this version...) with heaps of yearning, some angst, Ilya driving fast cars, Shane drawing floor plans, the Hollanders, and cats. They take turns rescuing each other until they find their way home.

    Now complete!

    Summary

    He hadn’t been that enthused about visiting the White House, no more than he cared to tour Buckingham Palace, but Bea’s friend had planned an entire itinerary, so here they were.

    Specifically, here Henry was, faced with one of the most beautiful men he’d ever encountered in his life.

    (Or, Alex is a White House Tour Guide, and he makes sure Henry's visit is completely unforgettable.)

    Summary

    Everyone is born with a compass on their body, inked into their skin and commonly on their inner left arm. Instead of pointing to north, the needle on the compass points in the direction of your true soulmate.

    Even wants to find his as soon as possible.

    Summary

    Isak is - as we all know - an idiot. Even is trying to find out why Isak has been an idiot this time. The road to finding out is long and very, very winding…

    Surprisingly enough, this is not the stupidest thing I’ve ever written. Unfortunately that doesn’t say much.

    Summary

    Nicolò set aside the water skins to refill at the river and stood to take off his boots and clothes. As he finished peeling off his breeches and socks, he turned to face the river and froze.

    Yusuf had just risen from the water. He stood knee deep in the calm current, clear liquid streaming down his skin, setting him alight in a glittering display, like twinkling stars, as the sun highlighted every perfect feature. Nicolò stood transfixed.

    Rivulets of water cascaded all over Yusuf’s body. His skin glowed a deep bronze, giving off an aura of vitality and strength. Water droplets fell from the tight, dark curls at his brow, framing his face in a curtain of water, his beard shimmering in the sunlight, and then in a move that had Nicolò’s heart stopping in his chest, he lifted both hands overhead to sweep his hair off of his face, running them up and back over his head, accentuating his broad chest, covered in a light dusting of hair, that tapered into a narrow waist and deep grooves of muscles that rippled around his rib cage.

    Or, Nicolò cannot control his reaction to Yusuf and feels horrible about it, but Yusuf is elated to finally have a sign that his feelings are returned.

    Summary

    Auguste sets Laurent up on a blind date. The universe — and Damen — have other plans.

    “I am on a blind date,” the man says, holding up his hands to forestall any more explanation from the too-helpful Ancel. “My brother set me up and I just—I wasn’t entirely listening when he told me what the guy’s name was. It was something that sounded like Brayden, that’s all I remember.”

    “Could it have been—was it Damen?”

    Damen’s not entirely sure what makes him offer up that lifeline. He—obviously—isn’t waiting here for a blind date, and he doesn’t know this man’s brother from Adam. Even the smallest amount of questioning would show him to be a liar, and maybe even get security called on him.

    Still, as the man takes a moment to size him up, look him up and down appreciatively, Damen can hardly work up the effort to care.

    Summary

    “So, polo,” he says, looking Henry up and down. The contrast between their appearances—with Henry in his clean white breeches and pale blue Ariat-branded polo shirt—is stark. “That’s the one that’s like croquet on horseback, right?”

    Henry is so relieved that they’re not dwelling on his accidental come-on that he can’t even be that offended. Alex delivers the barb with that same teasing smirk, and Henry is forced to laugh as he scoffs. “Not exactly.”

    (As a professional polo player, rodeo is a foreign world to Henry. But when his new sponsor organises a photoshoot with a top rodeo star, he finds his life turned upside down by a bronco rider with big brown eyes and dark curls. Surely this won't become a problem...)

    Summary

    Across the way, Alex reappears in the window with a mug of coffee cradled in his hands that’s so large it might properly be called a bowl. This time he looks over at Henry, smiling as he takes a sip, and gives a little wave.

    Henry is so, so fucked.

    (It’s one thing after another: Henry’s having one of the worst weeks of his life. Luckily, his new neighbour Alex is always there to look out for him.)

    Damen said, “I’m not sure what it is you’re asking me to do.”

    “It’s simple enough,” said Laurent. “Come to my games, cheer me on in the stands. Be my date to a few networking events. And most importantly, let the press see how blissful domesticity with you has softened me.”

    It is perfectly self sufficient, perfectly serene. And it is Nicolo’s.

     

    In which Lord Nicolo is content with his lot in life, and the arrival of a handsome knight changes everything.

    Summary

    “There you are, love. Did you forget you were supposed to wait for me?” Henry fucking Fox says smoothly, smiling at him like it’s expected. Like they planned this. Like Alex should have known that MI6 would show up and blow up his operation—ok, given the number of times this particular MI6 agent has stuck his prissy nose in Alex’s business, maybe he should have—

    Henry glances over to the bouncer as he adjusts his cufflinks. “He’s with me.”

    (Working a mission with MI6 agent Henry Fox is already Alex’s idea of a disaster, but when things go sideways and Henry gets dosed with a dangerous drug, things get more complicated than he ever could have imagined.)

    Summary

    It would be one thing if they were just two roommates and friends, and maybe he could push a little and see where things went. He’s not that oblivious about these things, no matter what his sister might say, and he’s pretty sure he’s not completely alone in these feelings. But none of that is an option, because he’s not spending his twenties in Europe to have fun and fall in love with pretty British boys.

    (Or, not your typical roommate AU)
