Summary
Larry was used to his skin not quite fitting right.
Larry has always been a little quiet. A little bland. His emotions don't show much. His work is his life. Above and beyond everything, Larry has always been thoroughly normal.
There wasn't anything to be done about it, anyway.

Summary
Larry is shaking when he sits on the bed. He and Kabu had met all of three months ago. It's been two months since their first kiss. Six weeks since they started dating. Only a single month since they first had sex.
This baby is not Kabu's.
In which one small slip-up changes everything. Larry and Kabu cope.

Summary
The teachers at Naranja Academy have their own rooms, too, if they want them, and… well, none of those rooms have walls any thicker than those in the student dorms. Which wouldn't be such a big deal - the teachers are more considerate about noise than the students, certainly - except that Jacq's new neighbor is a little. Let's say. Emotional.

Summary
I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you're looking for?Just another fic where I explore the obvious, overdone, yet satisfying angle of an old man thinking he's past it, and a young dragon tamer pursuing him anyway.

Gorgeous, gorgeous. The characterization and banter in this one is absolutely top-notch. I'm holding this Kabu up especially. Look at this beautiful old man, this silver fox. I'm obsessed.
