    Summary

    Greatly inspired by Haïta the Shepherd by Ambrose Bierce.

    Avery is a cheerful, obedient shepherd tending to his flock of slimesheep, worshiping Hastur, the God of Shepherds, diligently and faithfully. Life is peaceful, slow, and perfect. But one day, Hastur asks Avery to find Derek, a renowned shepherd who suddenly went missing after trying to find a lost sheep.

    What will happen when Avery sets off to find this mysterious shepherd? What would cause such a responsible man like Derek to abandon his sheep? Why did Derek vanish without a trace?

    And who's this handsome fisherman that Avery keeps running into?

    This fic will be more fluffier and lighter than my other one (Each Mortal Has His Carcassonne), but as a lover of drama, I WILL be going to some rough spots and take things as far as I can.

    TW FOR: Religious trauma, human sacrifice, violence, cosmic horror, mental breakdowns, and Derek fumbling Avery for over 400 chapters.

    Summary


    "Do you know what I find fascinating about humans?"

    The King's claws scratched gently at the nape of Derek's neck.

    The gesture was undeniably possessive. It should have made him pull away. It would have only a few weeks ago.

    Instead, Derek found himself leaning into the touch.

    "You spend your entire lives so desperate to be understood," The King murmured. "Then recoil the moment something finally does."

     




    After the failed ritual leaves him bound to the King in Yellow, Derek becomes the center of a hidden war between cults, government agencies, and eldritch powers far beyond human comprehension. While the world grows steadily stranger, Derek finds himself growing closer to the being responsible for most of his suffering.

    Apparently, that feeling is mutual.

    Or

    A story about possession (both literal and figurative), what it means to be human, and the terrible realization that being wanted by an eldritch horror is at least still want.

    Summary

    Hell is too small a word.
    Too neat.
    Too contained.

    What D3rlord3 endured had no limit, no containment. It was messy, sloppy and overwhelmingly too much.

    It followed him home and made itself comfortable inside his thoughts, whispering truths, false statements and knowledge that no mortal human should know about that he didn't ask for peel him apart from the inside. Slowly turning him into someone he doesn't recognize anymore. A shell of the man he once was.

    He is alive in the technical sense only—functioning, breathing, breaking slowly while a King, a God, a Monster, a Eldritch Horror, watched his every move, keeping him alive for a reason he did not know.

    Or at least thats what he was going to keep telling himself.

    Summary

    To even gaze upon the king's chosen vessel was sacrilege, but lord Derek cannot resist a small peek. After rescuing him from kidnappers, Derek is granted the position as the vessel, Avery's personal guard and finds his control slipping as he gets to know the wonderful man that would someday be taken over by the king. Derek would be powerless to stop such a thing, but for now, he is content to be in Avery's presence. The difficult part is that Avery also seems to be content in his.
