Seasons of Capri 2023: Cycles & Circles - Masterlist!
Tumblr media
Thanks to everyone who participated in the fest this year and made it such a success. Scroll down for the full masterlist, but here's a quick summary of what we did this year:
Fics submitted: 14
Fanart submitted: 3
Total number of words written: over 198,000, including four works in the 10,000-20,000 word range, and three that broke 30,000
We're so grateful to everyone who signed up and made all this incredible art. We couldn't do it without your love for these characters and this fandom! ❤️
And now, here are all of the wonderful creations for this year's fest:
Sexual Intercourse by antivillain
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 2.3k
Damen's healthy enough to engage in sexual intercourse. Laurent is (emotionally) healthy enough to tease Damen mercilessly for being so awkward and uncomfortable discussing the matter with Paschal. Paschal is not paid enough.
Tie Me Down, Set Me Free by @kiseopingu
Fic | 14.3k | Damen/Laurent
When Damen gets hired by his family's sworn rival to help track the man's younger brother, he doesn't expect the road to lead him to familiar places, and familiar faces. As for Laurent, his path to freedom is clear. It's only a matter of creating an opportunity to reach it.
As past and present slowly merge, both Damen and Laurent are forced to contend with their truths, whether they want to or not.
Jokeste’s Journey by @vmcgmidlifecrisis
Fic | Jokaste/OFC | 4.3k
Jokaste travels north, meets (original character) Drifa and gets some sexy fulfilment.
Beautiful, Beloved, Strong by bluehair
Fic | Erasmus/Kallias Erasmus/Torveld | 1.5k
My prompt for The Seasons of Capri Fest 2023 was: "Kallias schemes to save Erasmus with no hope of seeing him again--until one day, he does." Hope I did it justice! Because Kallias really would do anything for love.
Returning by flightinflame
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 2.4k
Damen knew the return to Arles would be hard for Laurent. He had not considered that it would be hard for himself.
The Stand-In Wedding Planner and the Obstinate Baker by penstrikesmidnight
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 2.8k
Auguste's wedding planner has decided to go on vacation a week before his wedding, leaving Laurent, the best man, to make sure everything is taken care of. If that's not enough, Laurent has to deal with an obstinate baker who seems intent on making his job as hard as possible.
There is absolutely no chemistry between them. At all.
Heat by @linecrosser
Art | Auguste/Laurent | Digital
While in the middle of a campaign in Delfeur with his older brother, the Crown Prince of Vere, Laurent goes into his first (late) heat at age 17 (totally triggered by the presence of Damen, the stupidly handsome Crown Prince of Akeilos). There are very few things more dangerous than having an Omega in heat while camping in enemy territory, and it's too late now for suppressants. Leaving Laurent to ride out the heat on his own would mean leaving it last for three days or more. Auguste has no option but to help Laurent through it by himself, so it will last no longer than a couple hours.
Red (like our spilled blood) by @pijulle
Fic | Kastor/Laurent Damen/Laurent Auguste/OFC | 39.6k
Akielos and Vere are at war, but maybe marrying the princess of Vere would help the two country finds a common ground - "The prince!" Auguste shouts. "Laurent is a prince!"
Star Crossed by @hephaest1on
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 35.2k
A story of Laurent Capulet and Damen Montague. A tale based on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, of lovers who suffer because their families are feuding. A modern AU that leans on the themes and actions in Shakespeare's original play and plays on the issues young lovers face in a world where gossip is news.
if only to dream of you by @nv-md
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 2.4k
During negotiations with the Vaskians and Patrans, Laurent falls ill and Damen must leave him to lead their newly-forged kingdom.
After a week of quiet suffering, Damen returns to their bedchambers and attends his husband.
Ruin Your Salvation, Ruin Your Mind by pretend_i_dont_exist
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 10.2k
"I do not understand. I thought we had a truce, so I came here for peace." His voice had grown hard and dangerous. "Why?"
Silence for a moment. "You killed my brother. ------- Laurent has suffered a lot since his brother's death, but he survived to his wedding day, and he's looking forward to a quiet life with a man he appreciates. New life, new him, he decides to invite his brother' killer to the wedding to talk and make peace with himself (by murdering the guy).
In Another Life by @mosrael
Fic | Halvik/Jokaste | 43.8k
Jokaste is the pearl of Ios–beautiful, intelligent, revered–and the consort of the most powerful man in Akielos… Or so she thinks. When her chosen lover’s power is corrupted and usurped by a foreign faction, Jokaste must make the hardest decision of her life: remain in Akielos and meet a perilous fate–one she had a hand in crafting–or flee to seek her future elsewhere.
Or: when getting kidnapped, then kidnapped again turns out to be the best possible thing that could happen to a girl.
antidote by @banananamilks
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 2.7k
Auguste survives Marlas, but Damen still becomes our captive prince. Actually all three princes are kind of the captive prince. oops
Soldier, Poet, King by @bluebutter-art
Art | Damen/Laurent | Digital
Two years after the bells had rung, both Akielos and Vere celebrate the wedding of their two Kings, which coincidentally falls on Vere's Annual Autumn Festival.
Chasing Meridians; Or 26,00 Miles to Home by @not-a-coral-snake
Fic | Damen/Laurent | 17k
Laurent lives a life of quiet routine, until the day a few ill-chosen words, his uncle's malice, and his own inability to back down from a challenge see him wagering half his fortune on an impossible journey to the ends of the earth and back. Happily, or perhaps unhappily, his newly-hired valet is making the journey with him and has plenty of opinions about where they should go, what they should do, and de Vere himself.
An Around the World in Eighty Days au.
At the Drop of a Veil by @seekthemist
Fic | Damen /Laurent | 19.1k
The Battle of Marlas could have brought the relationship between Vere and Akielos to a breaking point, but it didn't. As the peace treaty is finally signed, King Aleron has a very clear idea of how to ensure the agreement is truly felt.
"Since the formal establishment of Vere and Akielos as independent reigns, there had been twelve peace treaties. The Peace of Marlas, signed by King Aleron and Theomedes-Exalted before the beginning of autumn, would be the thirteenth.
The thirteenth peace would not go down in the history of the Kingdom as an abject failure. Not if Laurent could help it."
By the Waterfall by @captaindamianos
Art | Damen/Laurent | Digital
Laurent is the god of winter, Damen is the god of summer. They only ever overlap in spring and fall. Is their love story doomed forever?

New Fic: Tie Me Down, Set Me Free

Ship: Damen/Laurent 
Creator: @kiseopingu | Shigure_Natsu (AO3) 
Rating: Mature
Word count : 14,319 words
Warnings/Tags: Alternate Universe - Historical, Action & Romance, Canon-Typical Violence, Kidnapping, Angst with a Happy Ending, Auguste Lives (Captive Prince), Overprotective Auguste (Captive Prince), POV Alternating
Prompt #: 24: "Basically the Ransom of Red Chief. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ransom_of_Red_Chief for the basic premise) With either child Nicaise or adult Laurent as the kidnapping victim. For Nicaise, it's Laurent who is given the ransom note but is perfectly aware of what a pain in the butt he can be; for Laurent, it would be Auguste , or Aleron or Hennike, who is the king or who is in charge of the family fortune and who knows full well what an ass adult Laurent can be? Could be canon time or another AU. Nikandros and Damen are the kidnappers? (For some perfectly good reason) or maybe not Damen, but Nikandros (or maybe Lazar? Maybe Kastor?), then maybe Damen is a lawman who is trying to convince Laurent to pay the ransom--or that the kidnap victim somehow snags into the story and causes in a lot of trouble Either way, Damen and Laurent end up together."
Summary: "When Damen gets hired by his family's sworn rival to help track the man's younger brother, he doesn't expect the road to lead him to familiar places, and familiar faces. As for Laurent, his path to freedom is clear. It's only a matter of creating an opportunity to reach it.
