    Summary

    The Pride & Prejudice AU you didn't know you needed // Arranged marriage to love // Slow burn

    "Why?" Verso asked, his pale eyes fixed on Gustave's face with unsettling intensity.
    "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.

    Gustave Virlogeux is practical, dependable, and entirely unremarkable — or so he has always believed. Verso Dessendre is composed, untouchable, and dangerously perceptive.
    Their engagement is duty. Their courtship is stolen glances, careful distance, and the maddening warmth of a hand that lingers a moment too long.

    But what begins as obligation unfolds into a slow reckoning with everything they cannot say — until what was never supposed to be real becomes the only thing that is.

    Summary


    "I'm leaving Paris," Verso says brusquely, by way of a greeting. He has never been very good with words; that has always been Papa's strength, not his.

    Gustave inhales sharply, watching him in silence, his hands clutching his notebook so hard the spine begins to twist.

    "You want me to come with you," he says finally, looking at Verso as though he has entirely lost his mind.

    Or:

    Time is running out. With war looming over Belle Epoque Paris, Verso must make a choice between his duty to his family and the young Writer who has unknowingly stolen his heart.

    He chooses Gustave.

    Summary

    As a lonely teenager, Verso paints himself a friend on a small, hidden canvas: Gustave, a confidant who quietly grows into something more. After the fracture, the other Verso finds Gustave again in Lumière. It should be impossible - and keeping his distance might be.

    Summary

    Before Maelle leaves the canvas for good, she fulfills Verso's wish to be mortal but also makes him promise to look after Gustave. Even though he's reclutant at first, Verso quickly discovers that maybe it won't be that difficult to keep that promise. Gustave's company is not so bad and maybe he does have it in him to try to enjoy life again.

    A Verstave comic.

    Summary

    Verso's smile widened, and Gustave knew with crystal clarity that the universe had a sick sense of humor. His Friday night blues had just become his Monday morning colleague.

    "We've met," Verso said easily, still watching Gustave with those piercing eyes. "Haven't we, Gustave?"

    The claim of his full name landed in Gustave’s gut like a stone, heavy and cold, followed by the slow bloom of heat at his throat where the kisses still ached.

     He was so, so fucked.

    Or: they say when you love a character so much you'd inevitably write them taking it up the ass
