    Summary

    Alexander takes the letter from my hands, and I know he sees the name on the envelope because he sets it on the table without opening it, quickly, like the words would burn him if he read them.

    “Oliver,” Alexander says carefully, his voice a mixture of fear, wonderment, and grief. “Are you sure you want me to –?”

    “I need to know if you can see what I see,” I tell him. “You’re the only one who could be objective about it. Meredith’s too prejudiced against him. Pip would just pity me. I can’t talk to Wren. You’re the only one who can be objective. You’ll tell me if it’s nothing. You always have.”

    Summary

    "I won't kill you just yet. Unless you beg for it.”

    Fyodor let out a breath too weak to be a scoff. “My education never provided me with such a skill.”

    “You'll learn, in time.” Nikolai shaped the promise into another threat. “They always do.”

    Fyodor is a traveling priest whose boat is overrun by the infamous Dead Souls, a pirate crew of vicious outlaws and runaways. Their eccentric captain, Nikolai, has a notorious penchant for leaving no prisoners alive. However, rumors of a revolution plunge them into a brewing storm where nothing is certain. War threatens the shore, but greed infests the sea. In a turn of fate, an unlikely alliance is struck, and a bond more treacherous than the tide is forged.

    [Or, the Fyolai Pirate-AU that no one asked for]

    Summary

    Rumor has it that a figure in Yokohama’s underground scene is holding a contest. The top-voted street racer wins a free enrollment into the next Formula 3 season, all the way in California. They might as well be handing out a one-way ticket to the F1 roster, and all the fame, glory, and money that comes with it.

    The entire city’s confident that the best driver that the circuit’s known in decades, Dazai Osamu—street name: McQueen, will win the opportunity.

    That is, until a redheaded rookie known by the name of Prince shows up on his streets.

    Summary

    After doing some perfunctory waving and smiling for the crowd, he turns to Chuuya and elbows him in the arm, too high above to reach his waist. “Aren’t you tired yet of always losing to me?”

    “I hope you fall off the podium and die,” Chuuya says without breaking his awkward camera grin.

    Dazai mock gasps. “Now what would your fans say if they knew the vile things that come out of your mouth when no one’s looking?”

    — or, the figure skating AU in which Dazai and Chuuya are forced to become rink mates when they are teenagers, sparking a rivalry that is as catastrophic as it is epic. A story about obsessions.
