    Summary

    The Pride & Prejudice AU you didn't know you needed.

    When he returned to Verso, he did not hesitate.
    "She could not go through with it," he said in a rush, keeping his voice low enough that only Verso could hear. "The engagement. I offered to take her place. I know this is irregular, I know you have every right to refuse, but I am asking you—"
    Verso's hand tightened on his waist, and Gustave's words died in his throat.
    "Why?" Verso asked, his pale eyes fixed on Gustave's face with unsettling intensity.
    "Why you?" he clarified, his voice quiet but intent. "Why sacrifice yourself for her?"
    The question caught Gustave off guard. He opened his mouth, closed it again, searching for the right words.
    "Because she is my sister," he said simply. "And I would do anything for her."

    In Belle Époque France, an old promise binds two families. When the promised bride refuses, her brother steps forward instead—binding himself to a man shaped by pride and expectation. What begins as duty unfolds into a slow reckoning with choice, restraint, and the dangerous intimacy of wanting what you were never supposed to have.

    Summary

    “I could satisfy you.”

    What the fuck. “W-what?” She almost drops the cat, yellow eyes widening and staring up at the girl affronted. Her eyes match the cat’s as she stares incredulously at Unsuur. “I’m sorry? I feel like we're on different stones across a creek. What did you say?”

    He meets her gaze, nothing on his face betraying him.

    “I could satisfy you. Better than your ex ever could.”

    ——
    Unsuur has always been an odd duck, but his drunken self is uninhibited and bold. His crush on the other builder, Scout, has been brewing since poor Nemo was almost turned into a tiny fur rug and news of her ex being inadequate in more ways than one opens a door for him to at least give something to the girl that runs herself ragged without expecting anything in return.

    He just wants to help her out, how could that go wrong?
