Summary
Fleeing from Eulmore with the Oracle of Light in tow, a desperate Thancred finds himself on Urianger's doorstep in search of succor and safety. What he finds is comfort and companionship beyond his expectations, and an old friend who sparks new feelings.
A lot can change in three years. Thancred had never been more keenly aware of that than he was now, staring up at Urianger's well muscled biceps and his unshrouded face. But what sparked the flutter of his heart wasn't the fine physique or the feathered hair, but the warmth that awaited him in those gilded eyes. And that was going to be a lot more difficult to bury within himself and forget.

Summary
Falling in love with Thancred was easy, relatively speaking. Urianger understood love. It was different, what he felt for Thancred, than any other love he'd experienced, but it was love, plain and simple.
Falling in lust with Thancred, on the other hand... Urianger didn't know what to do with lust.

Summary
When Thancred showed up on Urianger's doorstep with the Oracle of Light in tow and half of Eulmore's forces on his tail, he did not expect a paragon of hotness to open the door. Blindsided by his old friend's new beauty, Thancred can't help but long for him - in all possible ways.
Surely it won't hurt any to indulge himself alone, right? Urianger doesn't have to know.

Summary
For more than a decade, shame has stayed Estinien's tongue when it comes to his love for Aymeric, and now he has lost his chance once and for all. Yet for the first time in his life, there is another man willing to allow Estinien to explore what he's always thought of as his deviant desires. G'raha insists there is nothing wrong with how he feels, and slowly Estinien comes to believe him. Is it possible he can be true to himself without guilt?
G'raha wants nothing more than to help Estinien overcome a lifetime of belief that his needs and wants are sinful. He's thrilled to be the one Estinien is willing to explore his desires with. But as his feelings grow, so too does his frustration at being forced to love in hiding, always rejected in public for fear of discovery. How much of Estinien's shame can he live with before it becomes his own?
Estinien knows that G'raha deserves better, but stepping out into the light seems an impossible hurdle for him. If he cannot bring himself to overcome his shame, it may yet cost him everything.

Summary
“I vowed that I would do anything if it might help you forget your heartbreak, did I not? It would be ungentlemanly of me to break that promise now.” Hildibrand leaned in closer as he spoke, close enough that the petals of his corsage brushed against Briardien’s tunic. Briardien watched one fall, spiraling, to the ground. “And so I ask you, Inspector: would this help?”
Briardien licked his lips. He cleared his throat, the sound too loud in the stillness. “There’s only one way to find out, so what are you waiting for?”
-
Hildibrand takes it upon himself to cheer Briardien up after a certain betrayal.

Summary
There is far more to G'raha's tale than he ever admitted to the Scions. Unfortunately, secrets have a way of slipping out no matter how you try to hide them. The last thing he wants is the pity of his comrades, but he's grateful to have the truth off his chest at last.
Especially if the revelation means Y'shtola will finally let go of her negative feelings for the part he played as the Crystal Exarch. G'raha will happily leap on the opportunity to try to win her heart.
He would do nigh anything to be with the woman he's loved and lost so many painful times before, and waited countless decades to love again.

Summary
When a chance conversation leads Thancred to realize how painfully lonely G'raha is, he resolves to help his comrade find romance. Thancred would have offered to bed the man himself, if not for his existing relationship with Urianger, but he has no desire to jeopardize the happiness he never expected to find in his own life.
However, all is not roses between Thancred and Urianger, either. Trouble brews on the horizon, in the form of a sharp difference between their libidos and sexual interest. Thancred doesn't want to lose the romance and affection between him and Urianger, but sooner or later their conflicting needs will surely cause a problem.
The last thing he ever expected is for Urianger to propose a solution to both problems.

Summary
When Y'shtola goes to G'raha to inquire about his process in bringing them all to the First, she discovers a vast untapped well of information for her research. She also discovers that he's suffering from a century of touch hunger, and she cannot bear to leave a comrade in pain. However, there's a good reason Seeker women don't give most Tia the time of day. Y'shtola swore long ago that she would never allow a male to lay claim to her, and she's no intention of changing her tune now. But G'raha is the one Tia who might have the control not to try to claim her during sex - and she has to admit to curiosity about what it would be like with a Miqo'te male.
G'raha knows he's going to break his heart over Y'shtola, but it might just be worth it for the chance to ease his touch-starvation. If he can breathe and think clearly, he'll have a better chance of finding a true partner in the future when she leaves. The problem is, she's everything he ever wanted in a mate, and she's definitely one of a kind. How can anyone else ever measure up? Some broken hearts never heal, and he's starting to think this might be one of them.

Summary
Estinien has spent years struggling to find the key to being 'normal', continually failing to understand why everyone else places such emphasis on sex. His lack of desire for full intimacy doesn't mean he has no wish for touch or affection, but his inability to go farther has already cost him one relationship with a man he loved with all his heart. He has no reason to believe a second attempt will end any differently, but he doesn't want to spend his life alone.
G'raha certainly can't empathize with Estinien's plight, but he does understand what it's like to be alone and untouched for far too long. If they can offer each other a solution for their mutual touch-starvation, he sees no reason not to indulge themselves. It doesn't take much of soaking in Estinien's affection before he has to admit that this is no longer a merely friendly exchange. He's willing to make sacrifices and compromises, if it means they can be together.
The biggest obstacle they face might not be Estinien's refusal to engage in sex, but rather his refusal to believe in the possibility that they can last.

Summary
To save themselves from a stench worse than death, G'raha and Estinien must aid one another in removing the aftereffects of a particularly foul fiend attack. The problem is, Miqo'te consider mutual grooming to be foreplay, and G'raha is certain he may expire of embarrassment - and arousal. But oh, it would be worth it to have Estinien's hands on him.

Summary
“Never mind the fact that mine own body is not one that Thancred wouldst find pleasing,” Urianger says even as he tries to resist the spell making him speak. “His preference lies firmly with those of the feminine persuasion and there is naught I can do to change that.”
“Well, of course you can change that,” Uin Nee says with a laugh that chills Urianger to his very core. The air around them shimmering with gathering magic as they point directly at him. “You silly mortals, you just need to be more creative with your thinking!”
Oh, no. Is all that Urianger has the time to think before a very powerful spell hits him with all the force of a hammer to the head.

Summary
Hubert had no idea how Edelgard could taint herself with such a loathsome creature as him. He’d always lived in her shadow, a monster who consumed lives and left a trail of corpses in his wake. He wasn't fit to look upon her, let alone touch her.
Yet he couldn’t stop touching her.
