    Summary

    The rumors started long before Jean agreed to join the Trojans. It was idle chatter around the Edgar Allan campus. A few online forum discussions. The odd remark from a reporter. Conspiracy theories thrown around the locker room before a team was set to face off against the Ravens and the object of their curiosity.

    Every single Raven daemon had been spotted at some point or another. All except one.

    The rumors became a living thing when Riko died.

    Reports came from the other athletes in Fox Tower, unanimous and clear: an unconscious Jean Moreau was seen carried out by security, bloody, with lacerations covering his arms and torso. Behind him medics rolled a covered cart large enough for a couch or fridge. Presumably carrying his daemon.

    The real leak came two days after. A security guard told someone who told someone who told the media that allegedly, Jean was found in the wrecked dorm of Kevin Day. Specifically found locked in the bathroom. One quote circulated like fire across news sites and gossip columns: “We had to tranquilize his daemon. She was trying to kill him.”

     
    Or, the daemon AU no one asked for except for me.

    Summary

    Jean does not know when the mark shows up for certain. What he knows is that during his freshman year in between the first horrible night and the next, the words JEAN MOREAU? JEREMY KNOX. show up on the back of his neck where only the others could see. Thirty minutes later, everyone knew.

    “Yes?” Jean Moreau’s voice is hoarse, tinny through the phone, and his accent shortens the reply by a half-syllable, but it doesn’t matter. Because he is an idiot, Jeremy’s heart swoops into his stomach. Again. Like every other time he hears the word. He takes an embarrassingly long moment to collect himself, breathing out through his nose and ignoring the phantom tingling on the inside of his left thigh. It’s not happening.
    __

    Or: the first words your soulmate ever says to you are inked somewhere on your body, if you're lucky. Against sense, this does not make things easier for Jean Moreau and Jeremy Knox.

    Summary

    Does anyone else care this much, Adi wonders sometimes. Amongst the countless collegiate Exy coaches, is there even one other that pours their entire well-being into their team the way that James Rhemann does?

    If it were merely about winning, maybe that kind of unrelenting dedication would be understandable. But winning a game isn’t what’s important to James, and that’s either the best or worst part of it all, depending on your perspective. No, he’s far more sentimental and idealistic.

    It’s a good thing they can’t have biological kids, Adi supposes. Not when they already have an entire Exy team full of them.

    Summary

    Neil is the most attractive person Andrew has ever seen in his entire life. Too bad that Andrew can't express that fact (not opinion) properly to him. It all should be fine, it's not like Neil doesn't know he's hot, right?

    Summary

    Helping Jean Moreau heal is a game where Jeremy Knox feels the stakes are too high to even consider the thought of losing. Jean’s first game as a Trojan against Edgar Allan feels like even higher stakes. Falling in love with Moreau - well, those are the highest stakes of all.

    “You are his Achilles’ heel,” Laila whispers, in the dark, and her words bleed straight into the empty places in Jeremy’s heart.

    Summary

    “I love him more than I know what to do with some days.”

    He’s gutted himself on the operating table. Jean knows Jeremy won’t understand what he means— as much as Jean wants, he and Jeremy are teammates— won’t understand what Jean means by love. Jean loves Kevin like the lamb loves the slaughter, like the cheek loves the palm of one's hand, like the hilt loves the sword. In every iteration of his devotion Jean and Kevin exist within each other.

    Summary

    The imminent return to Evermore has him jumping at shadows, and he is already at the end of his rope. Every ounce of energy every single day goes to pretending to be what is required of him—he has to override years of training (away, not towards) to perform adequately on the court, to uphold the Trojan standard, and he has to pretend that while he does it he is a functioning human and not simply a discarded toy too broken to be played with anymore.

    It’s why he spent his time in Palmetto when he could walk watching every single Trojans interview and game he could, so he could memorize their speeches and their strategies and their game play so that he would not be a burden. Jean knows what he owes his new masters. And he will not fail.

    (Or, Jean tries to fake it until he makes it at USC)

    Summary

    Andrew knows what it means to be a partner to a Raven. Somehow the idea of remaining a Fox is even worse than returning to California. So he signs up to tolerate the Trojans and help rehabilitate another broken bird.

    He didn't sign up to for all their love and friendship nonsense, or being stuck third wheeling as another Raven falls for Jeremy Knox.

     

    or

    Andrew joins Jean on the Trojans and is totally fine.

    Summary

    Jean knew, distantly, that California was prone to earthquakes. But knowing and experiencing are two different things, and while he’s become accustomed to the sensation of the rug being pulled out from under him, he is very much unaccustomed to the literal Earth shaking beneath his feet.

    Or, Jean gets a lot of magnets; California gets a lot of earthquakes.

    Summary

    “I have some clothes I can let you borrow if you’re really desperate. I don’t know how you ended up like that,” he gestured to Jean’s state. “But you might wanna consider another line of work.”

    It was so ridiculous Jean huffed out a laugh and Jeremy smiled.

    “Modelling, perhaps?” he gestured with his hand palm up in suggestion.

    Jean’s eyebrows lifted of their own accord at Jeremy’s boldness. And Jeremy smirked before turning promptly on his heels and leaving the room.

    Or the one where Jean and the foxes are an underground vigilante street gang and Jeremy is a resident doctor finishing up in med school.

    Summary

    For prompt #147 of the Daylight Savings Fest: Kevin is long past the prime of his career, but he still has some lessons to pass on to young rookie teammate Neil.


    "How many times have your coaches given you shit about over training?"

    Neil's sheepish grin is answer enough.

    "Get in the car," Kevin says.

    "Really, it's only—"

    "Now, Josten. Or you're going to end up so far down the sub list you won't see game time until June."

    Summary

    Wymack’s voice trails off, words stuttering to an abrupt stop. All heads turn, slowly following the path of Wymack’s gaze.

    Andrew spots him almost immediately - hair as black as night, curls gentle and full atop his head. He’s got a bruise the size of a baseball around his eye, freckles spattered out around it like an explosion of stardust. His eyes are the colour of the sky, cresting with storm clouds.

    His hands are in his pockets as he walks by, fisted around something. He doesn’t look at any of them as he passes, eyes downcast.

    Andrew’s never seen him before.

    “What the hell happened to your face, Neil?” Wymack shouts, voice startling in the aftermath of silence. Neil doesn’t stop, plundering by the team and their coach without a second-glance.

    __

    In which Wymack adopts Neil at the age of 13, after the world has already chewed him up and spit him back out a few times over.

    The Foxes are still the Foxes, and Neil and Andrew are still destined to find each other.

    Jean, she says, and it sounds so American, so lacking in its attempt to contain the terrible misery and flesh of him, so utterly and incredibly lovely for coming from her lips. Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

    Summary

    Jean Moreau, despite himself, still wants things. He wants to leave: he needs to drag his broken body back down to its place. He was unconscious when they took him from the Nest, but he knows that won’t spare him the punishment, and the sooner he gets it over with the sooner he gets back on the court. This is a mountain Jean knows how to climb. It’s a tall peak, and he needs to get started. He needs to prove his value, needs to prove his loyalty. This next year is going to be brutal.

    Jeremy Knox likes to win, and even if he can't parallel park in less than fifteen attempts he's finally got his meds figured out and he's got friends who care enough to make him clean his room. And thanks to Kevin, the Trojans are about to poach the best backliner in the league, so he's finally got it all figured out. This next year is going to be awesome.

    Kevin is going to be watching this through his fingers.
