    Summary

    Caleb’s epilogue is a lonely tower of dark stone jutting like a jagged, broken blade lodged into the snow and pines in the distant north of the Cliffkeep Mountains.

    His epilogue is full of cozy, lit fireplaces, mountains of books stashed in every crevice, sometimes the finest of teas and hot cocoa when Caduceus’s travels brought him this far out, and the slowly multiplying herd of cats that both Caleb and Essek have enabled over the years.

    But it took long, long years before anything like it rooted in Caleb’s life.

    Summary

    Imogen was not born for greatness. She was soft, unnoticed, drifting; more shadow than girl. She longed not for power, but for something far more dangerous: to be wanted. To be kept.

    And someone heard.

    Laudna, the Bride of the Briar Veil, sovereign of an empty court, chose her. Not for strength, but for silence. For the way she ached like something half-formed. She did not love gently; she loved like frost claiming a rose. Possessive. Absolute. Divine.

    Summary

    The Nein return from facing Uk'otoa to find a missing house and no sign of their wayward tenth member.

    Lucien returns home with a new party, the weight of some unfortunate revelations, some new emotional scars, and a desperate need for a nap.

    And all of this adds up to three separate adventuring parties sniffing each other like cats.

    (Follow-up to seeking an original sin.)

    Summary

    Zahra is her boss, and Vex is her assistant, and there are entire clauses in the employee handbook about fraternization and harassment and power dynamics. She should assert herself, should either report her for abusing her power for even thinking it was alright to come onto Vex in the first place, or should at least try and be in control of these moments when they happen, initiating them herself or wresting the power from Zahra in the act.

    But then, how is Vex supposed to care about any of that when Zahra steps into her space, when her back is meeting the cool porcelain of the bay of sinks and those same hands she eyed earlier start reaching for the top button of her shirt, when the gourmand scent of cocoa and cinnamon and sweet citrus overwhelms her senses.

    "I think I'll need a faster solution than that, don't you, Vex'ahlia?" Zahra murmurs, her glossy red nails and the soft skin of her finger pads grazing Vex's heated neck before beginning to undo her blouse from the top.

    (or, Zahra is a company executive, and Vex is her assistant, and how their affair expands from almost the beginning to the end)

    A promise of a new life, one where he would never be cold

    Thankful of the time he could get away.
    Underneath the tower, the young man died
    Wishing of a life to not be terrified.

    Summary

    When Vex agreed to bring Saundor as her +1 to her brother's wedding, it had been a dream scenario. They were young, in love, and both breaking their backs for their careers, so a vacation to the Bay of Gifts was a perfect break for them to re-commit themselves to each other while celebrating Vax and Gilmore's nuptials.

    There's just one problem.

    They broke up, and now Vax is asking her to pay for that gap in the vacation, money that she cannot afford, so she has to think fast. Maybe her brain is working too fast when she tells Vax, then, that she actually does have a partner. A girlfriend who would love to come along for the trip in Saundor's stead! What luck, now she doesn't have to pay, someone else can enjoy the trip, and Vex doesn't look pathetic. The only problem is: Vex is still very, pathetically single, so she has to find someone to pose as her SO and fast.

    Enter, Keyleth Ashari.

    To Vex, nothing in this arrangement can go wrong (until she has to orchestrate a breakup, something that hurts to even think about at the start).

    To Keyleth, everything can go wrong (because sometimes even looking at Vex sends her into a yearning tailspin).

    Their only goal? Make it until the wedding.

    Summary

    Orym awoke feeling remarkably well-rested, considering what lay before them that day. That thought was quickly chased away by the realization that he wasn't alone in bed like he had expected to be. But the presence there in the bed with him wasn't someone he was unused to, it had just been so long since they had last woken up together - and never quite like this - that he almost thought he was still asleep and dreaming, his mind trying to mercifully grant him some kind of escape before it returned to thoughts of what was to come.

    But no, Dorian was really there with him, holding him. They had shifted in the night and Orym found himself spooned against Dorian, feeling his heartbeat against his back and his soft breath against the back of his neck. Dorian's arm was hooked over him, his hand resting over Orym's. His heart fluttered as he realized their conversation the night before had been real. It hadn't been a dream. Dorian actually returned his feelings, something he had only ever dreamed might be true.

    Summary

    Set after the events of Season One, Episode Four, Shadows at the Gates.

    After a battle against Delilah's wretched wraiths, Vex'ahlia is forced into the darkness of Elon to deal with a certain... bloodlust. Little did she know, Percival was not too far behind, and from what was once a mindset of concern, soon turned to a gut-wrenching shock as Vex's true nature is revealed in the most horrifying way possible.

    But is it really all as it seems, or is a past of tragedy blinding the poor gunslinger into doing something he may regret?

    (Author's Note: This fanfic is inspired by a Tumblr post by @scythlyven-art. Thanks for the inspiration! Also, there is an art piece, by me, associated with this fan fiction on my own Tumblr, Twitter, and Bluesky. Hope ya'll like it!)

    Summary

    The Mighty Nein fail to defeat Lorenzo and the Iron Shepherds when they assault the Sour Nest. They are captured, broken, and sold as slaves to a mysterious Master Pietro, who operates a workshop that makes extremely dangerous and coveted illegal magical artefacts. Caleb and Nott must toil in a field of cursed flowers, while the others are sent to the bleak depths of a mine. Cold, hunger, exhaustion, and the looming threat of violence are their constant companions.

    As if these very real and present dangers aren’t bad enough, they are also being stalked by a sinister magical being. Something strange and uncanny lurks in the shadows, something that was there on the day that Molly died, something that haunts Caleb’s nightmares… Something that Caleb fears will ultimately kill him, and go after Nott next, until all of the Mighty Nein are dead.

    Caleb can’t see a way through the darkness until it’s almost too late. But this is a story of survival. And when the Mighty Nein get there, they’ll find healing, justice, and heroism waiting for them on the other side. And if everything goes as it should… Caleb will even find an unexpected chance to love and be loved in return.

    Summary

    “Bells Hells, I presume?”

    “Yeah, it's us,” replied Orym from way above Imogen’s shoulder, “Sorry we took so long. There were some… complications.”

    “Huh.” The Aeormaton examined them for a while before responding, “FRIDA described you differently.”

    “Believe me, they didn't.”

    Imogen was about to add more when two familiar faces suddenly appeared in view. “Took you guys long enough! We were starting to wonder if you ever-“ Deanna’s voice died in her throat as she caught sight of them, with FRIDA outright freezing in place.

    The two groups just stared at each other for a second before FRIDA's tiny “What the fuck?”

    “I wish we knew,” replied Ashton, pushing the hair from his face, “I wish we knew.”


    On a follow-up expedition to Aeor, the Hells have an unfortunate encounter with a rogue experiment.

    Of course, it's some of the worst timing imaginable.
