    Summary

    In the end, it is not that hard to execute the plan.

    It is easy as taking a cup of tea to his nephew. Simple as that. Daeron doesn’t even think about summoning a food taster, because why would he?

    For all that has separated them, all that Gwayne abandoned him into the hands of Ormund Hightower, Daeron trusts him. He trusts that Gwayne wouldn’t seek to harm him.

    And it is the truth, in its way. Gwayne wouldn’t seek to harm him. He would do anything to save Daeron’s life, whether he likes it or not.

    Gwayne knows, in this moment, as he sets the cup of tea down on Daeron’s small table in this small room that Ormund has set aside for him in the Footlys’ keep, that he is like as not to lose Daeron’s trust for the rest of time.

    But if the price of Daeron’s trust, his faith, is his life, then Gwayne is willing to pay it.

    So the night before the battle, as those in Tumbleton are drinking away their last nights on earth, Gwayne drops milk of the poppy into Daeron’s tea.

    (When Daeron refuses to leave Tumbleton, Gwayne makes the decision for both of them. He will not lose his nephew to their uncle's ambitions, whatever it takes.)

    Summary

    So I was writing something that was all about the angst and the holding back and yearning.

    And I got bored of myself and decided to do something different.

    This is it.

    It is finished, so no need to worry about being left hanging.

    The aim was not to be soft and fluffy.

    And as ever, I know nothing about this world, I made it all up, I googled, and I did my best. If it doesn't land right please let me know. I do try and learn occasionally.

    Summary

    It's spring of 1953, and while Hawkeye's highs are high, his lows are lower than ever. The last thing that he needed was a new batch of wounded to accompany his increasingly apparent exhaustion, let alone one whose name is Tommy.

    Summary

    Everyone knows the Beast was selfish and unkind—which, of course, is exactly what a jealous enchantress would want the world to think. An AU in which young Adam was an innocent victim caught up in his father's past mistakes, and Belle a willing presence seeking to repay her own father's debt. And with a vengeful witch on the loose, Gaston is the least of their worries.
