Summary
After four atrocious attempts at a task, Greg waits to see if Jack Dee’s efforts will be worth any points at all. It is not. But when the contestants complain that the task was impossible, and that no-one – not even Greg – could do better, Greg decides to prove them wrong. The task: ‘Romance Alex’, and Greg’s time starts now.
---
A collaborative fic written by LadyJekyll and Illuminescence – with the prompt “Fake Dating”. Alternating chapters from Alex’s PoV and Greg’s PoV (by Illuminescence and LadyJekyll respectively), we surprised ourselves, tossed the hot potato of plot twists and cliffhangers at each other, and ended up with 40k of flirting, misunderstandings, and fake dates! Enjoy!Series

Summary
Greg took another swig of champagne to hopefully hide the fact that he had no clue what she was asking him about. “Well, you know,” he said, stalling for time, “I, erm—”
Mercifully, his phone vibrated in his pocket and he flashed an apologetic smile as he dug it out. “Sorry, just give me a moment—”
He broke off when he saw the text on his screen, his smile disappearing in an instant.

The one rule Greg has about Alex (of which there are many smaller rules, each one of them nestled into the last) is that he cannot think about him.

Summary
It’s always been about sex a little bit, and Greg’s known that from the start. Almost from the start. It doesn’t matter – he’d known that going in, and he’d still signed up, name on the dotted line, because he doesn’t care.
“You can do pretty much anything you want to me,” Alex had said at the time, before the thing was even fully commissioned, back when it was in that uncomfortable time where a lot of people had committed a lot of time and money to getting this made, but there was a high chance – a high chance – that someone up above would pull the plug, and everyone would have to slink home with their tails between their legs.
“You can do pretty much anything you want to me,” Alex begs now, lying with his shirt unbuttoned, open by his sides, his trousers down to his ankles, a makeshift blindfold (Greg’s scarf, slung down from the edge of the door) around his eyes, his hands knotted together behind his head, kept in place with hot-pink electrician’s tape, “Greg, you can do – you can do-”
“Yeah,” Greg says, hands on his hips, surveying Alex with pleasure, “You think I don’t know that?”

Summary
Harry’s coquettish grin, his dripping curls and soaked jacket. Dale takes it all in as Harry crosses the little bit of distance between them, one hand coming to rest on Dale’s knee, the other on his cheek. Dale exhales. In the dark interior of the car, their own personal space, he anticipates the thumb smoothing down his face, tugging at his bottom lip. Harry stares holes through him, and Dale shivers despite himself.
“A kiss?” A bit closer now, feeling the words spoken to his trembling mouth. “I can do just that.”

Summary
Thanatos makes Zagreus an offer of at least one peaceful death.
"I can keep you there longer than you could keep yourself alive. Death is my country, not yours. We can go out into the world. When it’s too much, come home with me. Not every death needs to be violent, Zagreus. I’ll take you back. No one will ever know you’re gone."

“Let me see if I'm understanding this correctly; I spend three hours in the Chaos realm... entertaining you, and, in turn, I can continue the rest of this escape without the possibility of death?”

Summary
They’re not looking at him, so Richie lifts his jacket and looks at his side, where the pain seems to be radiating from. On his side, ripped clean across through to his back, he’s got a gaping wound from Pennywise’s claw. It missed Eddie and pierced right through him, shredding his side when he rolled Eddie away and scrambled up after him. Richie feels woozy just looking at it.
“My shirt,” Richie mumbles mindlessly. It’s the least of his fucking concerns, but he’s pretty sure his shirt looks a lot like the shirt the guy wears in A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge, and he was hoping someone else would notice someday. He was really hoping Eddie might be that someone.

Summary
“‘I’m not doing shrooms with you in an airport bathroom, Richie,’” Richie echoes, in a fairly good impression of Eddie’s voice. “‘I’m not getting drunk in an airport bar, Richie,’ ‘Why the fuck did you drive here so early with me, Richie—’”
“Those are all valid,” Eddie snaps. He looks at the board again. Their flights are leaving within half an hour of each other, now. After a beat, he sighs. The thought of anything that might make it marginally more bearable to get on his airplane back to his miserable fucking life in New York is tempting. “Is there actually a bar here?”
