    Summary

    Silco, fashion menace and professional aesthete, drags his adopted son Ekko to rural Yorkshire in pursuit of peace, quiet and a horizon that isn’t strangled by skyscrapers. Instead he finds: no sushi, no matcha, no Grindr and exactly one café in a twenty mile radius.
    Its owner, Vander, is inconveniently handsome, inexcusably kind and - worst of all - starts feeding Silco pastries until he accidentally develops both feelings and a gluten habit.

    Summary

    Bliny, that's what we are making,” is what Ilya says instead. He leans over the island, just to smell Shane's signature lemon-mint body wash better. Just to feel closer to someone who has kept him further from the edge than can be thanked with words. “They are easiest pancakes to make.”

    Shane hums. He reaches a hand out, to cup Ilya's cheek. It would be nothing but an innocent action, if Ilya didn't know how well Shane can see through him.

    The warmth of that hand melts him, a bit more. So he is closer to feeling the world all around, instead of a past he should've cut off like a sick limb, by now.

    “It was— my mother used to make them, every weekend.”

    Also called;
    Ilya copes using food. He soon realises that he can also use food to spoil Shane rotten. Introducing him to classic Russian treats is just an added bonus.
    Five snapshots in time where this mattered, more than usual.

    Summary

    The man hummed, "was the misconduct at the jeopardy of a horse's welfare?"

    "Absolutely not!" Jayce squeaked, "it was -"

    "Was it competitive misconduct for advantageous reasons?"

    "No, it was only -"

    "Then I don't care," the man outstretched a hand, long, delicate fingers catching Jayce's attention for a beat too long before he realizes he has to be normal and actually shake the man's hand, "it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Talis. I'm Viktor. Welcome to Piltover's Equestrian Team."

    Wide eyed and shaken, Jayce takes up Viktor's hand with his own clammy paw.
    "Charmed."

    ---

    The good news? Jayce Talis has finally been accepted onto Piltover Academy's Equestrian Team.
    Bad news? He might be totally head over heels for his student trainer.

    (Or, a completely self-indulgent Arcane Equestrian!au that absolutely no one asked for, except for me. Actually, I begged myself for it.)

    Summary

    “They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
    “Rock and roll.”
    He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
    “Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”

    After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.

    (genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)
