Summary
Ed is going to be the death of Stede.
Death by thirst traps, what a way to go. If he had to choose a way to die, that would be more desirable than most, but Stede intends on spending the rest of his life with Ed, so he’d rather not pass away any time soon. He can’t see himself building up any real immunity to Ed’s teasing though – how could he, when his boyfriend is that hot?
Ed decides to spend the day tormenting Stede into horny insanity. Stede just wants to come before he loses his goddamn mind.

Summary
Stede is out like a light as soon as he and Ed curl up in bed, sweaty and achy and content, but Ed’s taking a little longer to drift off. Even though he’s exhausted, he’s not in a rush to fall asleep. It’s nice to bask, just for a bit, in the heat of Stede’s body pressed flush against his front, in idly kissing the back of his neck and shoulders, in their hands firmly intertwined over Stede’s heart. The handcuff around Stede’s wrist suddenly pops open and Ed very carefully closes it again. They can take them off tomorrow.
Ed and Stede are handcuffed together at Pride. Ah well, guess they'll have to be stuck together forever now!

Summary
the love story of skater boy ed & ballet boy stede. all tooth-rotting fluff & big feelings, sprinkled with some silliness & smut. updates are non-chronological & depend on what we're feeling most inspired to create, but the fics will always be reshuffled so they stay in chronological order.
a collaborative series with words by sparklespriggs, art by baby kraken & audio by both of us!

Summary
Luca Haas looks Ilya Rozanov in the eye. Ilya Rozanov, recently appointed captain of The Ottawa Centaurs. Ilya Rozanov, who Luca has done unspeakable things to on Archive of Our Own.
He gulps. His phone is weighing heavy in his back pocket, his phone which has been logged into an Archive of Our Own account for years. An account which features some… disgustingly detailed smut about the man currently shaking his hand.
or, luca haas wrote a very popular hollanov fic when he was a teenager... he spends the first year of his professional hockey career in fear

Summary
“I’m right here. And you are okay, and you are safe, and healthy, and you are at home, yes? It is quiet, and nobody is there, nobody is bothering you. And the world is full of stupid idiots, but you are not one of them. And I am here. When you need me, I am here.”
---------
or: The whole world thinks Shane is gay because of some stupid internet rumors, and he doesn't even have to confirm it. He's losing control of his entire life and he needs somewhere to put what little he does have.
Ilya has open hands.
