Summary
Courtly romance: A European medieval literary genre that emphasizes nobility and chivalry. Oftentimes, courtly romances are extramarital, as love was not a major consideration in noble marriages. Courtly romances, in turn, emphasize love over status or power.
Or: He was a knight. She was his king. Could I make it any more obvious?
During negotiations before the Final Control Room, Eret agreed to marry Dream in order to legitimize their position as king once the title was passed over. Arranged marriages are not unheard of, especially in solidifying power; some couples even fall in love. Almost two years later, they are… regretting it, to put it lightly. After a blowup fight on the eve of the Manberg-Pogtopia War, Dream assigns Punz, his most loyal knight, to be Eret’s personal bodyguard. Political negotiations, deeds of valor, meetings in walled gardens, and endless adventure to avoid detection ensue.

Summary
There's a bards' tale about some unfortunate cursed lady. She gives her man a choice: I can be beautiful but untrustworthy, she says. You'll never know where I am, where I've been, who I've been with. Or I can be ugly but loyal to the bone, and I'll never leave you. I'll guard your heart like mine, and stand by your side forever.
Supposedly, it's a hard choice.

Pilgrims by TempleCloud
Fandoms: Original Work, La Divina Commedia | The Divine Comedy - Dante Alighieri

Summary
In 2015, a motley band of pilgrims set out on a fundraising sponsored walk to Canterbury, but they have motives of their own. Ali is trying to resolve his feelings over his friend's death. George is trying to rebuild his relationship with his nephew Daniel. Jack and Krystal want to give something back. Victoria just feels guilty about everything. Pilgrimage has changed since Chaucer's day!
This is an original work, but as I wrote it during a phase of being obsessed with the Divine Comedy trilogy, and particularly Purgatorio, so references wound their way through the story, along with references to anything else I was obsessed with at the time.

Summary
“You know Valentine's Day doesn’t have to be a box of bad chocolate and Tesco’s finest wilting rose bouquet. It can just be you,” Melanie says, and Martin understands she means both of them, him and Jon, and what they mean and are together. “And if that’s absolutely nothing, not even acknowledging the date, whatever, I’m sure that’s fine, too. ‘Sides, not like Jon’s big on romance, is he?”
“Um,” says Martin, blushing and tongue-tied in the coffee shop. “I mean — maybe a bit?”
***
It's the first Valentine's Day after the world came back; Martin doesn't think much of Valentine's, but he wants to make it perfect. -

Summary
His secret is out. His real name isn't Sir El von Waugh, who hails from Braekenbillzen. He's not a knight at all. He's just a peasant. One who lied and cheated his way into competing in dozens of tournaments, just to chase after his dreams that a man can change his stars. But now, there's nothing left for him to do, except stand in the city square, locked in the stockade, and await the judgement of those he deceived. Eliot Waugh is ready for whatever hardship may come. He's more than used to it. Until the worst happens, and his friends show up to his defense, knowing full well that saving him might cost them their own lives.
Written for The Magicians Monthly Prompt Challenge, "Royalty."

Summary
Yes, I know that's not how you spell it. It's an homage to Pratchett (RIP) so don't fucking start.
RIGHT! As I understand it there are a bunch of prompts for Outlaw Queen oneshots and -whilst I don't much like Robin- I had to have a go at the masquerade prompt since everyone and their dog seems to think that it's a cute little idea wherein the main characters can be cheeky and coy and have a mistaken identity fuck ignoring the fact that some of is can recognise someone from the cheekbones down.
ANYWAY, masquerades were banned in the 12th century for a REASON.
This is why.
