    Summary

    Keith is a witch who owns a shop where he breaks curses on both magical items and people under spells. Love spells, family curses passed down generations, cursed heirlooms lurking the attic -- he can handle them all. But one day a boy named Lance walks into his shop, and his curse is darker and more difficult to break than anything Keith has ever seen before: the curse is draining his magic, and without his magic, Lance will die.

    Summary

    “‘m fine.” He mumbles, voice muffled by the wooden table. He doesn’t raise his head even when a hand is hesitantly placed on his back, patting him gently a few times.

    If he closes his eyes, maybe he can forget for a few moments the way Kaji played with the lollipop, twirling it around in his mouth before sucking it against his cheek.

    Haruka wonders which flavor will it be this time. Maybe peaches, if Kaji is in a particular good mood, or strawberry, one of Haruka’s personal favorites - not that he’d let the other know any time soon.

    He’s not ready for a new brand of teasing to start - hell, he hasn’t even survived the first one yet.

    Or, Sakura has a problem and it comes in the name of Kaji Ren. Since the day he accidentally spilled his deepest desire to Kaji, the other is testing his patience in every way possible, driving him insane.

    Needless to say, everything goes downhill from there.

    Summary

    “My Abuela said it,” Silvio insists. “She said you have to wear the hat, because you have a pale ass so you’re going to get skin cancer and die before Lance even wakes up.”

    Keith looks between the children and the hat, too confused to glare, sweaty and horrid from pulling weeds beneath the scorching sun. “What?”

    “That’s wrong,” Nadia complains, and yanks her brother down to her level to whisper the correction in his ear.

    “Ooh,” Silvio amends. “Tía Veronica said you have a pale ass. My Abuela said you’re gonna die.”

    OR

    When Lance is fatally wounded during their final battle, the blue lion enters a deep hibernation with Lance inside. Unsure when or if he’ll wake, Keith is forced to wait and watch over him in the company of the people he fears most: Lance’s family.

    Summary

    Another scrap of parchment shot out of the cup, a fourth scrap of parchment, which made no sense at all, and the Headmaster grabbed it from the air, unrolling it and reading it quietly.

    The entirety of the Great Hall remained silent. It was as quiet as a tomb.

    “Lance Álvarez?” The Headmaster whispered, and then again, louder. “Lance Álvarez.”

    Wait, what?

    // Lance and Keith have always been battling it out: on the Quidditch field, in the duelling club, for the best marks in Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Keith always manages to come out in the lead.

    Now, the Triwizard Tournament has been announced and Lance knows that Keith is going to beat him for the only open spot, even if he pretends that he thinks otherwise. But it doesn’t quite go the way that Lance expects, and everything changes from there.

    Summary

    As it turns out, learning that your house is haunted makes the ghosts a lot more aggressive. Who knew?

    Ah, well. At least one of them is hot. And he's the less-evil one, too, so that's always a plus.

    Summary

    “What’s the fun in a masquerade if you don’t flirt outrageously with the prettiest person in the room?” the young man says flippantly, and then winks at Keith. Keith huffs a laugh, amused.

    “You keep saying things like that, but you haven’t seen my face,” he says, gesturing to his mask. “I could have warts under here. I could have spots, or scars.”

    “You’d be lovely even with all of those,” the young man says, and he suddenly sounds serious. It takes Keith by surprise, makes his heart twist along with his stomach. “Your eyes,” he continues, tilting his head. “I’ve never seen eyes like yours before.”

    Summary

    “Why did the blue lion choose you?”

    Lance’s eyebrows rose to his hairline. He was an expressive boy. He wiped the shock away quickly though, smiling easily as he took a small sip from the drink he held.

    “Dunno. We had a connection, I felt it the second I stepped into that cave. You know, the one Keith-“

    “I know,” Krolia said tersely. “I found it.”

    Summary

    “You said if you don’t break the curse before you’re twenty then you’ll … you know.” Keith couldn’t even bring himself to say it. “But that means there is a way to break it, right?” He searched Lance’s face desperately, although it was difficult to read his expression in the dimness.

    Lance hesitated, holding Keith’s gaze for a few lingering moments before he looked away again. “I …” He scratched the back of his neck. “I have to kiss my true love.”

     

    Keith is a mage and Lance is a knight, and they've been best friends since childhood. For years, Keith has known that Lance carries a dark secret: that if he doesn't kiss his true love before he turns twenty, he'll die.

    Now only three days remain before Lance's twentieth birthday, and Keith and Lance are sent on a dangerous quest to rescue Romelle––who Lance believes will be the one to break his curse. ... But what he doesn't know is that Keith is already hopelessly in love with him.

    Summary

    Does anyone know Lance is in love with Keith?

    Of course not. And Lance would very much like to keep it that way, thank you! Keith already doesn't want anything to do with him ever since coming back from that space whale; the last thing Lance needs on top of his crumbling self-worth and shaky standing in the team is a rejection that shatters his heart in pieces, too.

    But now, Lance got himself in a bit of a pickle. Which is fine, because Lance has a plan to get out of it! A wonderful, brilliant, masterful, completely fool-proof plan. His team won't look at him like he's more incompetent than they already do, he won't have to spend the rest of his life trapped on some alien planet, and Keith will never find out just how head over heels he is for him. It's a win-win-win situation.

    Of course, with Keith, things are never quite so simple, and Lance's plan soon causes a domino effect that changes the entire course of his life.

     

    Or:

     

    Maybe Lance should have been a little more specific when he said he'd do anything to get home. Because now...

    "You must bestow a kiss on the one your soul most desires."

    ...Fuck.

    Summary

    Altea is a world of dragons, magic, and, until recently, war.

    It's also entirely fictional.

    When Lance put on his VR headset, he fully expected everything he experienced from that point on to be false.

    But his feelings for the kill-stealing jerk in red armor couldn't be more real.

    Summary

    “If your son remains unbonded and unmarked, I will have no choice but to challenge his candidacy.”

    His mother pauses. “With whom?”

    Kiyoomi doesn’t see him at first. He’s so busy trying not to glare down Miya-san that he doesn’t notice the way every head in the room suddenly turns toward the open door.

    “My great nephew,” Miya-san says.

    Kiyoomi’s eyes only flicker up then.

    And when it does—when he finally sees who’s standing there, leaning casually against the doorframe, his fake blond hair brushed to the side and that infuriating, crooked smile on his face—it hits him like a punch to the fucking gut.

    * * *

    Sakusa Kiyoomi, heir incumbent of the multibillion yen Itachiyama Group, has been raised and trained to take over his family’s legacy. He could never have expected that not having a soulmate would jeopardize that future. He could never have expected that the challenger for his crown would be the one person he hates more than anyone else.

    Summary

    It hurt his head to think about what he was doing prior to… this, but he was fairly certain he’d gone to bed. Like any normal day. He’d returned from his routine shift at the Fatui headquarters and gone back to his studio apartment to sleep. The first thing his slightly dumbfound mind managed to conjure up was that he’d been isekai’d, but it was thought with a mental laugh and a ‘yeah, sure’ followed right after.
    Meaning the only feasible conclusion was that he was still asleep, and this was all a dream.

    With the city entering a state of turmoil, and a mastermind hellbent on wiping out the whole guild of Hunters, they’ll have to set aside their differences and work together if they want to make it out alive.

    But that’s easier said than done, when neither wants to be the first to give ground.

    Summary

    Sakusa Kiyoomi wasn’t even supposed to be on the goddamn moon.

    He was a personal bodyguard, one of the best in the business, but a single mistake got him shipped off to spend some time in penance as a correctional officer on a dumb lunar prison. A prison where his skills were wasted on fetching things for inmates, making sure they got to bed, and occasionally--god forbid--touching them.

    Space was terrible, but perhaps the most terrible thing about it was a certain prisoner named Miya Atsumu. So of course Kiyoomi would end up stranded there, alone, with him.

    Kiyoomi closes his eyes, slowly. He prays that the ground opens up and swallows him whole. He prays that a whole earthquake rocks Tokyo and brings the place down on him, specifically. He prays that some higher power decides to strike him with lightning right this minute.

    “Actually,” he says, grinding it out through clenched teeth, “you haven’t seen any other kids around, have you?”

    It's Kiyoomi's last resort to ask a stranger for help finding his sister's missing kids, but it's not like this night can get any weirder, and Miya Atsumu's kind of hot.

    Summary

    Neither Kiyoomi nor Atsumu are strangers to casual sex. The reason for that is “a lack of emotional capacity,” as Kiyoomi would say, and Atsumu is “just really horny”. They sometimes meet in the hallways when they pull their victims behind them, heated gazes clashing in the space between them.

    That they end up sleeping with each other at some point is an inevitability, and so is the rest. They just take a while to realize it.

    Featuring the complications of room assignments, unintentional domesticity and a lot of mutual dumbassery. Also, the bone-deep exasperation of an entire volleyball team.
