    Summary

    Years after the fire that destroyed everything, you've regained a sense of normality in your life with Sun and Moon in tow, comfortably living with you in your apartment. Everything is great, perfect, just the way it should be.

    So what do you do, then, when platonic "I love you"'s and common affection aren't enough to satiate your longing desire for more? What do you do when you can't stop yourself? Are you truly willing to risk your idyllic life with them over a heart that can't put one foot in front of the other without falling?

    It might be easier than you think.

    Summary

    D3rlord3’s King-induced-migraines usually go away after a couple of rounds with Avery.

    Until they don’t.

    “If you split, could The King possess the other?” Derlord pressed on with the voice he always used when he got hopelessly curious. “The empty one?”

    “I mean… yeah. Probably?” Avery's frown deepened somewhat. It was a very valid question; that didn’t mean he liked the implication. “But why would you want him to have a body instead of a second me?”

    The sight of a plotting grin caused Avery to retract by a fraction. Derlord leaned in closer, not letting him get away. “Because if he’s in the clone…” he said quietly, as if sharing a secret he didn’t want anyone to overhear. “I won’t get migraines anymore.”

    Avery is glad that there’s a solution. He only wishes that it didn't have to come with a grumpy eldritch roommate.

    Avery kept his things very organized.

    Okay, that was a lie, but there was order in the disorder.

    Summary

    Oh, you have got to be kidding me.”

    Derek froze. “…What?”

    The King’s voice dropped into something dangerously flat.

    “I dragged a mind across eternity. I filled it with the collapse of stars, the birth of civilizations, the end of all things. I gave it knowledge so vast it shattered under the weight of it.” The eye flicked toward Derek. “And you—”

    Derek straightened slightly, like he was bracing for something.

    “—you used your final coherent thoughts to leave behind cryptic warnings… carefully designed pathways… intricate systems meant to guide the next subject…”

    A pause.

    “…and instead of properly instilling fear, you accidentally set up a romantic narrative.”

    Avery choked. “A what—?”

    Derek made a sound that could only be described as a system failure. “That’s not—what are you—no, that’s not what I—”
