    Summary

    When Marcus went to Copenhagen, he was expecting better. He was oceans away from home and the people who needed him. The person he loved most was dying, and here he was doing worse. He had a week to walk away from Denmark a better chef, and Carmy sent him to the best he knew to achieve that goal. Luca was pragmatic, persistent, and perceptive. There was a way he looked at Marcus that made him feel like he was holding his hand out to a flame he couldn't look away from. In a week, he was sure this fire for him would burn out, but he didn't know an open flame could scar like this.

    -Spin off of my other fic, Acts of Service. Before and during that fic's timeline, but separate storylines.

    “Yes, exactly. Like Magic. As inescapable as Magic.”

    Summary

    Sometimes, only sometimes, when Sherlock is very far away and absolutely guaranteed not to return for at least three hours, John sits on the sofa and lets the tea make itself.

    In which John is (reluctantly) a wizard, Mycroft is (apparently) omniscient, and Sherlock is (surprisingly) oblivious.

    Summary

    The moment the ball hits the court, fitting perfectly inside the lines, Jannik freezes.

    He sees him fall to the ground on the other side of the net. He buries his face in his hands, smiling blindingly. When he gets up, there is clay all over his kit, clinging to his back and legs.

    There’s clay all over Jannik’s hands too. He feels sick when he glances at his palms. Disbelief mixes with resentment in his stomach and Jannik thinks he’s going to throw up.

    Yet, he somehow drags himself to Alcaraz, congratulating him robotically. He can’t stand to look at him, the triumph on his face making Jannik feel angry. Furious, even. He grips Alcaraz’s hand tighter than he probably should, his knuckles whitening. The other man doesn’t wince, though. He only smirks at Jannik, victorious. “Great match”, Alcaraz says to him perfectly politely. But there is a malicious glint in his eyes, Jannik swears he sees it.
