Summary
“Don’t like pirates?” Might as well poke the bear. She was starting to become interesting anyway.
“I don’t like anyone or anything aside from the aforementioned pub and marketplace.”
“What will you do? Turn us in to the marines?”
“Ha!” She genuinely laughed, some patrons snickered, the bartender raised a glass. “Marines, indeed. No, I’ll kill you.” She said it so sweetly that Law had to process her words twice. “By the way, that was a threat.”

Summary
In a world where you are human, fey, or something in between, Kit has always been used to keeping parts of his life separate. The Fey Market is his true home, where he's his dad's prodigy, but always kept under watch and protected. The little freedom he's allowed for attending school is always in danger of being taken away, and he's careful to never form attachments.
As a result, Kit knows everyone and no one ever really knows him.
But then Tiberius Blackthorn, a classmate who has always watched Kit a bit too closely, appears in the Market, and Kit's carefully distinct worlds collide, opening up a whole new realm of possibility.
~~~
That sounds kinda fancy, but look: This fic is 1. Kit having a wide array of criminal/con-man skills that Ty thinks are amazing, 2. Kit and Ty having their first ever proper friends in each other, 3. exploring what Kit's life is like with Johnny Rook (who eventually dies in the fic), 4. Kit believing he's basically human only to find out he's the First Heir (which is not gonna be as stressful as canon) and has some very interesting skills because of it, and 5. Kit and Ty being lowkey obsessed with each other as friends and then eventually boyfriends.

Summary
In the weeks since her ordeal with Jarvis Tatum, Christy struggled with fear and guilt, reliving certain moments every time she closed her eyes. Chief among those images was the bleak look on Neil MacNeill’s face as she’d led her captor out of the cabin… but was she ready to admit why that might be?
When Miss Alice let slip that he’d expressed considerable guilt regarding Ellie Tatum’s death, Christy decided to stop by MacNeill’s cabin to check on him. At best, she could distract him from his troubles, and at worst, their inevitable argument might help with her own.
Instead, she and Neil are thrust into an unexpected position that can’t help but expose the tension between them. To slay the dragons they’re faced with, they’ll have to join forces-- either in a lie, or something far more perilous: the glorious, dangerous truth.

Summary
“Mister Dekarios, you brought home a friend?” Tara hovered in front of Yrelia but because it was dark she couldn’t tell if the tressym was scrutinizing her or not.
“Ah, well Tara, Yrelia isn’t just a friend,” he said with that sweet smile of his. He took her hand and held it tightly. “No, in fact, she is much, much more than that. She is my fiancée.”
Tara’s gaze flitted between Gale and Yrelia. “Interesting,” she said. “You leave for months and return to me saying you’re engaged. You didn’t think to mention this relationship when we saw each other in Baldur’s Gate?” She flew over to Gale. “I swear, Mister Dekarios, you never cease to amaze me.”

Summary
“We’ll set out again in the morning,” Adell said, ushering Rozalin towards the ready-made bed in the guest room. “It won’t make any sense to keep going while you’re running on empty.”
Rozalin didn’t have it in her to argue any more. She turned back to Adell’s mother, who wore a warm smile. “Thanks, Mrs…” she trailed off, realizing she had no idea of the woman’s name, nor of Adell’s family name.
“Just call me Mom,” she said.
Or:
Rozalin is confronted with a care and gentleness that's entirely unfamiliar to her. She's been taken care of, sure, by impersonal servants and handmaidens who did their job cleanly and quickly- but never like this. Never with such warmth.
