Hello!
I saw that you would be happy to talk about Chivalry a bit, so I was wondering what your favourite part of it has been so far? Whether it be your favourite scene, a little detail that makes something come together, or a certain interaction that was particularly fun to write!
I really enjoy this fic, and I will say that you have single-handily made me (and probably the entire Elegies server) Hegemol fans! I got to give it a reread soon - I love the set-up and twist in Chapter 6, and all of the details that you add that really breaths life into the setting.
(Also, getting back to writing after hiatuses can be rough at first, but you got this thing! Just take your time - we'll always be excited for the Best Beetle Boy :) )
Thank you as always for the asks Tigerlily!! I'm sorry this one took so long to answer.
So far out of what's posted, I think chapter 6 with the dream sequence is my favorite thus far. It was very very fun to write, and I love diving into the more metaphysical sensory details. I've got so many more scenes in my head that won't happen until much later in the fic, and among those are some I can't wait to get to haha-- but for now, the fucked up dream sequence with Lurien (wink) is my favorite.
I also enjoyed writing the bath scene right before it but I had to edit it like 3 times because for some reason I initially wrote it EXTREMELY homoerotic like. More homoerotic than when I write actual sex scenes. Fellas is it gay to wash the grave dirt off of a previously dead knight??? (Yes)

2020 fic recs!! [Part 2]
part 2 of my 2020 fic recs!! as before, ive limited this to five fics per month; and fics are ordered by the month they were published. This spans fandoms and ships, and hopefully you find something you like!! credit for the idea goes to @iam93percentstardust
***
July
this is the start: @capnwinghead
Clark and Bruce continue raising the Wayne children and encounter a number of challenges along the way.
great minds (love alike): @starklysteve
Steve’s eyes flicks down to Tony’s knees on the floor.
“Are you – are you proposing to me with my ring for you?” Steve asks incredulously, eyes wide and confused.
---
Or, Steve finds Tony’s ring for him, Tony finds Steve’s ring for him. Panic happens.
Marvels Unsolved: @iam93percentstardust
Marvels Unsolved was never supposed to be this popular. It started off as a novelty web-series about Tony trying to convince Bucky about the existence of the supernatural—he firmly believed that if science could turn Uncle Steve from an actual shrimp to the god of muscles, then magic had to be out there—and then they’d started talking about an unsolved crime from the early 20th century after filming an episode one day, forgetting that the camera was still rolling, and had ended up with enough footage to make a second episode about real crimes. They had stayed pretty unknown throughout that first season but then true crime podcasts had exploded in popularity and Unsolved along with them.
it’s a small world after all: @maguna-stxrk
“Great speech.”
Smiling at the compliment, Tony turns around. “Thank y—”
And nearly drops his champagne flute.
His world comes to a stop.
They had only spent a night together, but Tony would recognize those baby blues anywhere.
It’s Steve.
Steve from Tony’s London business trip. Or, as Rhodey has become accustomed to calling him—The Soulmate That Got Away.
you’re in my blood, you’re in my veins: @nethandrake
Tony always figured that if they ever were to break up, it would be like a blaze. Scorching and hot and all-too blinding. Intense like the two of them have always been.
Instead, they break up on a Tuesday, with the rain pelting the windowpane and the midnight silence stifling.
August
Five Times Danny said he’d marry Steve (plus one): @five-wow
Danny humphs. “Look, all I’m saying is, I think I’d probably have married you by now.”
“I’d marry you, too,” Steve says.
Or: An experiment in how many times you can say something before you have to put your money where your mouth is.
Family (You’ve Always Had It): @/SunnyQueen
A black Camaro and a scowling blond was not what Junior had been expecting.
“Hi, sir. You didn’t have to pick me up.”
The blond looked up from the screen on his phone and groaned, completely ignoring Junior's statement. “You are right, I didn't have to."
Ode To Yoga Pants: @riotfalling
OR the continued terrible mating dance of Bucky and Tony, AKA when betting on your friends stops being fun
Through The Years: @hawkbucks
Tony brings home Natasha one day, proclaiming her to be his new sister.
Natasha takes this all in stride.
The broken road that led me home to you: @just-fandomthings
A documented list of conversations between Steve and Danny via text and phone call following the events of 10x22 "Aloha." (Where, even thousands of miles apart, Steve and Danny can't go without talking to each other.)
September
someday, we’ll pass it on to you: @starklysteve
Steve smiles.
Reaching up, he flattens his hand against his son’s far smaller one, curling gently around it. “You wanna be like him?”
“Da!” Peter agrees again.
One year old, and you already know who’s the best of us, Steve pauses to reflect, all his fears chased away by a fierce pride. “Your Dad’s coming home real soon,” he promises, “you should tell him that.”
---------------
Or, five times Peter did the repulsor pose as a toddler
+ one time he used the repulsors as an adult
Classic Sci Fi: @notdoingsohot
Bucky wakes up to Steve telling him he's lost his memory, but not to panic, it'll only last a few days. Easier said than done when the last thing Bucky remembers is fighting Hydra with the Howlies in WWII.
He tries to make the most of it however, and there's this guy... Tony Stark. It's pretty clear the guy hates Bucky's guts, which is unfortunate because god damn is he a sight.
He tries to figure out what he did to wrong Stark, but everyone just tells him he doesn't want to know.
They were right.
Blooms in Frost: @/Diomedes
Tony coughs up his first petal on the sixth of July. He has been married to the love of his life for two years.
Bury a Hanahaki corpse in earth and it will beget the most beautiful garden. All that love, it is said, must go somewhere.
Hanahaki AU: Established relationship
------------------------------------------
A Single Thread of Gold: @lovelyirony
Rhodey doesn't believe in love at first sight or any of that cheesy shit. He just wants someone who is nice, dependable, and safe.
Tony Stark is Housing Service's little problem for the school year, and now he's stuck in Rhodey's room because he's exploded the last two dorm rooms he's been in and won't live off-campus.
high roller, place your bet: @machi-kun
“Would you kiss Stark for a hundred bucks?”
“I would pay a hundred bucks to kiss him.”
October
press my luck: @omg-just-peachy
But... Steve is almost ten years his junior, and he could be with just about anyone, looking and acting like he does. And then there’s the not so small fact of Tony’s name and net worth and the fact that, okay, Tony had paid for Steve’s grad school tuition, and now he’s worried Steve feels obligated to stay. Or something.
Or, Tony is a billionaire, Steve is a grad student, and they learn to let themselves be taken care of.
see it with the lights out: @starklysteve
Tony goes on a business trip, and he does not - not at all - get jealous of Dodger hogging his husband's chest, a territory otherwise known as Tony's pillow.
(or, Steve goes on an Instagram spree and Tony misses home)
adulthood is looking both ways before you cross the street and getting hit by an airplane: @starkslovemail
It was a perfect plan, if Peter did say so himself.
The Buy In: @dracusfyre
For the ImagineTonyandBucky prompt: Mafia AU with Tony as the Boss (except he's a really good one, making the streets safe, keeping drugs away from kids etc) and Bucky as the detective sent to go undercover to catch him out but ends up realizing he's actually doing more good than harm and they end up falling in love
trinkets of your affection: @starklysteve
Kissed him once for every year I loved him, Steve had written.
By that count, Steve owes him five more kisses now.
Tony traces the words, hands trembling, and tips back a shot of Howard's ancient whiskey. None of it burns anymore.
One day, he'll have lived more days without Steve than there are words in the diary.
For the first time since he'd woken with shrapnel in his chest, Tony fears the future.
----------
Or, five things Tony keeps to remember Steve by, and one thing Steve gives him to remember.
November
“Hey Tony”: @riotfalling
Steve points out that Bucky never calls Tony by his actual name. Bucky doesn’t believe him, until he does.
Remembering You is Hard to Do: @lovelyirony
“The future’s crazy, honey-bear.”
Jim looks up.
“Why do you call me that?”
“Call you what?”
“Honey-bear. It’s weird.”
“Inside joke we have,” Tony says, chest tightening. “We thought those couples that have the lovey-dovey nicknames were ridiculous.”
overheard your heartbeat (calling me yours): @starklysteve
"Tony - "
"I wish I could promise to come home this time," he feels the armor crawl back down his arm, continuing unnoticed over Steve's red gloves, then up the blue uniform as Tony fights to keep Steve's gaze firmly fixed on him.
The last eyes Tony might get to see, and he wants to be lost in them.
In the end, his entire life boils down a few simple things: "JARVIS, take care of him for me."
----------
Or, Tony overhears a phonecall where Steve proposes, a battle happens, and a paper ring settles some misunderstandings.
i (really, really, really, really, really, really) like you.: @nethandrake
For as long as Steve can remember, he's been crushing on Tony Stark. The thing is, he's pretty sure Tony doesn't know Steve exists. And how could he? Steve's scrawny and little. He's a nobody compared to Tony who's Mr Popular and the son of a billionaire.
Or at least he thought so until Tony swings by the bakery Steve's mother happens to own to enlist Steve's help in finding the perfect Valentine's Day card.
The perfect Valentine's Day card for someone who isn't Steve.
One Song (My Heart Keeps Singing): @iam93percentstardust
When Thor is old enough to understand what a Heartsong is, he goes to his mother to ask her why he can’t understand the language his is in. He listens as she tells him about the first soulmates who couldn't understand their Heartsong until the day they meet, excited by the thought of a grand adventure, one that will take him across the cosmos in search of his One.
He’ll search all the Nine Realms if he has to.
December
Swiping Right: @s-horne
“Ouch. Definitely a hard pass for that one?”
Steve startled at the sudden comment from the row of chairs behind him and turned around. He’d been passing the time in the airport lounge by swiping through Tinder and had gotten lost in his own world. It was almost jarring to be pulled away from the screen of hot men and back into reality where the PA was screeching and there was noise everywhere.
Adjusting to the difference, Steve frowned. Wait, he knew that face. Oh, shit… he knew that face.
“No, no, it’s fine,” the man said before Steve could get out anything other than an embarrassed sort of yelp. Waving his hand through the air, the stranger smiled ruefully. “I get it. It’s the beard, isn’t it? True be told, it was a weird winter choice that year and I knew it would come back to hurt me.”
Steve didn’t know what to say. He knew it must have shown on his face and could feel himself flushing, panicked and embarrassed all at once. What were the odds of swiping left on someone literally sat behind him?
set your flight path home (to me): @starklysteve 
Tony puts down his welding torch. “I’m building you a plane.”
Stepping carefully over the gears and tools scattered about, Rhodey slowly makes his way to him.
“And when did you become an expert on how to build a plane?”
“Last night,” Tony grins.
---------------
Tony builds a plane, and Rhodey teaches Tony how to fly it. Or he would be teaching Tony, if Tony didn't distract him so much.
I Want A Man With A Slow Hand: @thefourofswords
“Can I ask you a question?” he asked on their way to a crime scene, because no time like the present, and Danny believed in ripping off band-aids.
“Why not?” Steve replied, eyes on the road. “You’re gonna even if I say no.”
“What do you like in bed?”
*
Danny undertakes a very important mission to get Steve laid. For his health. Ahem.
same time next year: @omg-just-peachy
“I forgot to ask. When’s your flight home?” Steve asks, draping his arm over Tony’s shoulder and settling in against him.
Tony ignores the knot that forms in his chest at the idea of it, leaving Steve again for his own impersonal apartment, his piles of books and projects and the nights without sleep.
“Day after tomorrow.”
Steve huffs a little sigh, then brings his lips to Tony’s neck. “Well, we’ll have to make the most of it, won’t we?”
Or, four (4) Christmases with two (2) idiots who can't admit they're in love.
rearrange my heart (to fit your smile): @starklysteve
"You dare," Howard's chair makes an ugly noise as it scrapes against the stone floors, the chatter of the room shifting into hushed whispers and stolen glances. "I am your father and your King!"
"My King is my husband," Tony tips his chin up, defiant. "And I refuse to hear you suggest that my husband has been anything other than good to me."
Next to him, he feels Steve's shoulders stiffen in surprise.
Howard's fist slams loud on the table. "Your husband does not even love you!"
Tony jerks back, burned. He knows that. Knows that Steve did not marry him for love – does not need any reminder of the cold truth, of what he desperately yearns for and can't even hope to have – but the harshness of Howard's words was scalding, and Tony can't afford for this to go any further.
----------
Or, King Steven marries Prince Tony, Tony is pretty sure he shouldn't panic when he falls in love with his own husband, and Steve tries his very best not to cause diplomatic crises.

Take it Slow - Part Thirty-Four
a/n: okay this is my first shot at a harry:y/n fic, and it will be multiple parts. y/n had a bad experience with an ex over a year ago, and finally accepts her coworker and good friend Niall’s invitation to go on a blind date with his friend Harry.
Warnings: Fluff and Smut.
Masterpost (all previous parts can be found in the masterpost)
You woke up a groggy mess the next morning. You weren’t sure how you were supposed to walk around all day shopping when your legs still felt like jello. He said that was him going on easy on you. You’d be lying if you said you weren’t curious as to how Harry usually fucked someone. You also wondered if he ever fucked someone he was in love with before. The way he grabbed your hand last night as he went deeper inside suggested that maybe he hadn’t. You looked over to the bathroom. A shower would surely bring you back from the dead. Your mind raced to fucking Harry in the shower, like full on. He’d probably lift you up and press you against the tile. You smiled at the thought of doing it all over your apartment when you got back.
When you were in college, you fucked all the time. You were constantly hooking up. Sometimes with the same guys, or maybe you’d meet someone new at a party. You liked having sex, it always made you feel powerful. You enjoyed being on top and doing the majority of the work, with college guys that was the only way to get what you were really after. The boys didn’t know what to do to make you feel good. You imagine once you gain your full confidence back, you and Harry would probably fight for dominance quite a bit. You welcomed the challenge.
Harry rolls over, almost crushing you. He places light kisses on your cheek, making you giggle. His eyes flutter open, and he smiles big at you.
“How’s my ba-“ You push on his chest to roll on top of him. You hide your face in the crook of his neck. “Feelin’ a little shy?” You nod your head yes. He chuckles. He really does think you’re the cutest thing in the world. “How ‘bout a bath this mornin’, hm?” You look up at him and smile. “Stay here, I’ll go set it up.” He kisses your hairline, and gets up.
You engulf yourself in the blankets, taking in his full scent. Nothing smelled better than Harry, absolutely nothing. He comes back several minutes later to let you know the bath was all set. You walk in with him and see he’s lit some candles. You take a minute to brush your teeth before you get in. You give him a fresh, minty kiss. He gets in first, and then you. You lean right up against him and sit in a comfortable silence as he holds you.
“How are you feelin’ this mornin’?” Someone had to break the silence.
“Alright.” You yawn, and press your head further into his shoulder.
“Just alright?”
“I feel like I’m floating.” You feel his smirk against your head.
“What was your favorite part?”
“Being as close as we possibly could be.” You turn to look at him and grin. “On a less sappy note, I think you’re the only guy ever to hit me like that, it felt incredible.” He tilts your head up to kiss you. “What was your favorite part?”
“Same as you, just really liked bein’ so close to you.” You raise an eyebrow at him. “A less sappy thing would definitely be finally feelin’ how tight you are around me.” You cheeks flush.
“Maybe it’s not that I’m tight, maybe it’s just that your dick is big. Ever think of that?” You giggle.
“Let’s go with both.”
After your bath, Harry makes you both some coffee while you put on a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt. You opt for sneakers today to give your feat a rest. You put a braid in your hair and throw the rest of it up into a ponytail. Harry has a pair of loose fitting jeans on and a sweatshirt as well. He hands you the coffee.
“Mm, thank you.” You take a sip and smile at him. You think back to last night and blush.
“You excited to do some shoppin’?”
“Yes!”
“Your hair looks nice like that by the way. Don’t think I’ve ever seen ya braid it like that.”
“Thanks babe.” You get up and kiss him on the cheek.
“You really like the earrings?” He twists one between his fingers lightly.
“I love them. Never taking them out.”
You and Harry set out to the shops. You start out at a few clothing stores. He takes note of the things that catch your eyes. You talk about wanting to get small things for the girls since they’re watching your place. You end up buying a few things here and there, and Harry helps you carry the bags.
“How ‘bout this place?” You look up and see it’s a jewelry store. “I’ve gotten some of m’rings here, I’d like to see if they have anythin’ new.”
“Sounds good to me.”
You both walk in, a man greets the both of you. Harry walks around. His eyebrows are furrowed until his entire face lights up.
“Babe, look at this one.” He waves you over. “It would look good on m’pinky, don’t you think?”
“Try it on, let’s see.” A man takes the ring out of the case for Harry to try on. He slides it onto his finger, and holds his hand out for you. “Oh, I like that on you. You should definitely get it.”
“You don’t think it clashes too much with the others?”
“Since when do you care about things clashing? It would look odd if it didn’t.”
“True.” He looks at the man behind the counter. “Alright, I’d like to get this please.”
As Harry goes over the paperwork for the ring with the man, you continue to browse. Everything was so beautiful. Every single price tag made you want to vomit, but it was still nice to look. You find yourself looking at diamond rings. You scrunch your face at some of them, thinking a few of the diamond shapes were ugly. You hated the way large diamonds looked on thin bands. You much preferred a thick band with a modest stone. You also preferred a square shape to a round or oval. Harry turns around to see what you’re up to while he waits for the man to return with his ring. He desperately wants to know which ring has made your face light up the way it has. He walks over to you.
“See anythin’ ya like?” He startles you.
“Hm? No, just looking over everything.” He watches your eyes carefully, and follows them to the ring with a thick band and square diamond. He makes a mental note. “What’s the status on your ring?”
“They’re just polishin’ it up f’me.”
“Was it expensive?”
“Sort of, but he cut me a deal since I shop here a lot. If there’s anythin’ that catches your eye don’t be afraid to tell me.”
“You are not buying me anymore jewelry.” You walk away from him, moving on to look at some of the necklaces.
“This one’s cool.” You scrunch your face.
“Too out there for me. I’m a little plainer when it comes to jewelry, I don’t like things that stand out too much, on me of course.” You see one that would almost look good on Harry. “This would look nice on you.” You show it to him.
“You know I used to wear necklaces all the time.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, I have a cross I used to wear a lot, stopped for some reason. I was afraid of it gettin’ dirty on my shoots. Or worse, losing it while I was travelin’. Might start wearin’ it again though.” Harry’s eyes scan over the various pearl necklaces. “Had a pearl necklace I absolutely adored, but I had to sell it a while back to buy some equipment. Broke my heart.” You make a mental note to buy him pearls for his birthday in a couple of months. “Is that weird?”
“Not at all! You know I love your style baby.”
“Sir?” The man says to Harry. “Your ring is ready.”
Harry smiles big and takes it out of the box to put it on his pinky. He takes your hand in his, and you leave the store.
You duck in and out of a few more stores, and decide to take a break at a café for lunch. You get your food to go so you can sit in a park to eat. It was cold out, but you wanted to stay outside.
“Where are we going tonight, Harry?”
“Mitch and Sarah have this club they like to go to. It’s nice.”
“Do people do cocaine there too?” You giggle.
“Love, any party after two in the mornin’, there’s gonna be cocaine.” He laughs.
“I can’t get over the architecture out here, it’s so cool.”
“I used to feel the same way when I first started exploring Boston.”
“Can I ask why you chose such a small city to stay in? Why not New York, or Chicago, or even somewhere out in California?”
“Don’t know.” He shrugs. “It mostly had to do with how expensive the schools I was lookin’ at were.”
“There weren’t any colleges here you wanted to go to?”
“There a few I applied to. But the more I looked into the various international programs other schools had I figured it would be cool to go somewhere I had never been before. I remember my mum was pissed because the first summer after my freshman year I didn’t come home until the middle of July.”
“Why’s that?”
“Niall, Louis, and I took a cross country road trip. We wanted to see it all. It was so much fun.” He smiles at the memory. “We all just really enjoyed Boston. I honestly think New York would’ve been too busy for me. I like how easily you can get to the suburbs, and even when the traffic’s bad, the drive to where you’re goin’ isn’t long.”
“It really is a great city. When I was a kid I always wondered what people did to be able to live there.”
“How come you stayed in Massachusetts? You didn’t want to explore?”
“I actually spent a semester abroad in L.A., it was incredible. I drove out the beach every weekend.”
“What year did you do that?”
“It was my second semester sophomore year. Rachel and I got accepted into the same program, so we went together.”
“I imagine there were many shenanigans.” You scoff.
“God, you have no idea.” You take a bite of your sandwich. “Since we all lived relatively close, over most winter breaks we would try to get together for a weekend trip to New York, or something fun like that. See a show and all that.” You take a sip of your drink. “I think same as you, those larger cities are just too busy. Plus, even though my family drives me nuts, it would be hard to be so far away. I don’t know how you do it.”
“It just makes the visits better. We hardly ever argue about anythin’ cause we don’t wanna waste the little time we have.” Harry sips on his drink. “My mum gets it, she raised Gem and I to be pretty independent spirits. She was understanding about us wanting to fly the coop, so to speak.”
“I had lived with my dad after my parents split, when I was home on breaks from school.” Harry raises an eyebrow at you. “I know, super confusing. But honestly, it was the best option for me at the time. My mom moved out my senior year of high school, and with so much change going on, I needed something to stay constant. I didn’t want to pack up my room or leave my side of town. Bridget moved in with my mom. She was only supposed to stay for six months.” You roll your eyes. “Anyways, I was so grateful that I started applying for jobs early, because I got an interview with where I work now at like the end of April. There was an alum that worked there at the time that I had connected with. He helped coach me through the interview process. After like three rounds of interviews, they took me on. I actually started out in their social media department, that’s how I met Niall because he was there too.” Harry nods along. “That’s a story for a different time.” You giggle. “Anyways, my dad was happy I had gotten such a great job, but he couldn’t wrap his had around the fact that I’d rather go live with Rachel and Sarah and pay rent, then live for free at home and commute.”
“Commuting from your dad’s house would’ve been so stressful.”
“No kidding! I would’ve had to get up even earlier to catch the T. He yelled at me almost every day for two weeks, and I had finally had enough. I was like if you think this is what’s going to keep me here, you’re crazy. I tried not to get too mad at him because I understood at the end of the day his youngest kid was moving out. I thought I did pretty well for myself.”
“You certainly do. You should be proud of how fast you’ve been able to move up.”
“I know you like the benefits your work has, but do you think you’ll ever run your own business full time at any point?”
“I don’t know, honestly. I like the idea of continuing to build my own brand, maybe even lease my own photo studio…but it’s such a difficult business. You’re either busy all the time or not at all, there’s little in between. At lease with the magazine, there’s always a steady paycheck comin’ in.”
“Well, if you do ever lease your own space I know someone in marketing that can really help you build your brand.” You wink at him. He puts his arm around you, and pulls you close to him.
“I hate to say this, but I think I could use a nap.”
“Yeah, pretty tired myself. Let’s head back.”
//
After a quick power nap, you and Harry get ready to meet Mitch and Sarah. You all decided to have dinner together before heading to the club. You were all having fun, drinking and dancing a bit. You didn’t want to go too crazy because you didn’t want to be hungover for your flight tomorrow afternoon.
“Harry?! Is that you?!” Harry’s face as pale as a ghost. And you swear you heard Mitch say oh fuck. Some random girl attached herself to Harry’s body, almost pushing you out of the way. “I told you girls it was ‘im!” A few more girls gather around. “How ya been Styles?” Her accent was thicker than his.
“Um…good.” He takes a step back from the girl.
“It’s been ages! How long ya in town for?”
“I, we leave tomorrow.” He hooks his arm around your waist and the girl shoots daggers at you. “Just home for Christmas.”
“Oh, I see. And who’s this then?” You go to speak, but Harry speaks before you.
“My girlfriend, obviously.” His grip on you tightens.
“She can’t be your girlfriend, you don’t do girlfriends remember?” She says laughing. “At least that’s what yeh told me, and every other girl you’ve fucked in London.”
“Alright, Melissa, that’s enough.” Sarah says stepping in. “What did you do, stalk us? I know you saw my Instagram story. I’m about ready to block you.”
“A girl can’t come to the club with her friends anymore?”
“Interesting how you made sure to be here when you knew Harry would be here.” Mitch says. She looks back at you.
“Fine, I’ll leave yeh all alone. He’s gonna break yeh heart honey, trust me. This man is incapable of anythin’ other than a good fuck.”
Melissa and her friends walk away. He waits until she’s completely out of view before letting go of you.
“I am so sorry about that.” He says to you.
“I’m blockin’ her right now. Didn’t think she still followed me. Sorry ‘bout that, H.” There’s that nickname again.
“You couldn’t have known.”
“So was that just like an ex-girlfriend or something?”
“Sort of. She was just a summer fling, nothin’ more, and I made that clear. It was years ago, but she stayed hung up on me. She’s text me all the time when she knew I’d be home.”
“And stupid you would continue to hook up with her.” Mitch says.
“I was like twenty-years old, fuck off.” He looks back at you. “I really am sorry, I-“
“Harry, it’s okay. It was before we knew each other. Your past is your past.” You shrug.
You genuinely weren’t mad. You have zero control over who Harry used to date or hook up with. And you could tell he was embarrassed by having one of his skeletons come out of the closet, you weren’t going to make him feel bad.
“Let’s not let it ruin our good time, hm?” You hug him and kiss him on the cheek.
The four of you spend the rest of the night uninterrupted, which everyone greatly appreciated.
//
“What time’s our flight tomorrow again?” You ask in the cab back to Harry’s flat.
“It’s late, like 11PM, I did that so by the time we get home it’ll be like we’re just goin’ t’bed early. Less jetlag.”
“Oh, so we have a whole ‘nother day to like explore?”
“Yeah.” He smiles. “Anythin’ in particular you feel like doin’?”
“Gosh, I don’t know. We went to all the big touristy sites. I wouldn’t mind going back to the London Eye, the view was just so spectacular.”
“We can do whatever you want, angel.” He leans closer to you and giggle.
You get up inside the flat, and get ready for bed. You each do your nightly routines, and get into bed. You had never felt closer to Harry. You snuggle up close to him. He takes his book and his glasses out.
“Know it’s late, but do you mind if I read for a bit?”
“Not at all! Do you wanna read to me?” He chuckles.
“You’d be thoroughly confused, I’m already halfway.”
“Don’t care.” You yawn. “I’ll end up falling asleep anyways. Just wanna listen to your voice.”
“Alright love.”
Harry reads out loud from his romance novel, and the sound of his voice is quite soothing. Your eyes feel droopy, and you soon drift off. He stops reading when he hears your light snores. He turns the light off, and slouches a bit to get comfortable, careful not to wake you.
//
The next morning you wake up on your back with Harry’s face against your chest. Your body was feeling much better, inside and out. You run your hand through his soft curls, and watch as his eyes flutter awake. He nuzzles into you, not quite ready to face the morning sun.
“Mornin’, love.”
“Good morning.” You bite your bottom lip. You had honestly forgotten how much you enjoyed morning sex. It was lazy and sloppy, and a perfect way to wake up. You just weren’t sure how to initiate since Harry was usually the one to suggest something. “Um…how’d you sleep?”
“Good. You?”
“Good.” You have a thought to maybe turn over so he’d be forced to spoon you, but when he was like this, you were trapped. He hears your heart start to beat faster, and leans his head up to look at you.
“You okay?”
“Mhm, yeah.” You smile at him. You knew he’d love to just hear you say it. But you weren’t going to give him the satisfaction. “Do you…um, you know, feel like giving it another go?” Both of his eyebrows raise.
“Feelin’ a bit puckish this mornin’ are we?” You nod your head yes. “Right, well, let’s just go ahead and take care of that shall we?” You giggle as he fully gets on top of you.
Harry’s hand dips down between your legs to rub lightly on your slit, teasing you only slightly to get you wet. You reach between the two of you to grip his hardening cock. You pump him slowly as he groans into your neck.
“Harry?”
“Mm?”
“Could I…get on top of you this time?” He props himself up to look at you.
“You don’t think that’ll hurt?”
“Not if you let me do it.” He knows you mean it won’t hurt if he just lets you do all the work.
“Alright.”
He rolls over and waits for you to get on top of him. You grip him again, lining up your center with his tip. You slowly sink down on top of him. You both let out a moan. You sit there a moment, getting used to him.
“Mother of fuck.” You say under your breath. He was just so big.
You lean forward slightly to grip the headboard. Harry thought you looked heavenly from this angle. You slowly lift yourself up, and slide back down him. His hands grip your hips, fingers imprinting into your skin. You eventually find a rhythm, and bounce up and down slowly on his cock. It was killing him not to move, but he was so lost in the expression on your face; pure bliss. You were grinding against him in just the right spot. He takes one of his hands to rub your clit, causing you to throw your head back.
You continue to grind against him slowly, your hands drift down to his shoulders, and you sink your nails in. He could feel your body tensing up the way it always did when you were close. You were moaning, pretty loud. You wouldn’t tell him this, but an orgasm from this angle was like no other.
“Baby, can I please move a bit, you’re killin’ me.”
“Inna second, oh shiiiiiiiittt.” You have a tranquil release, and pause your movements to catch your breath. “Okay.” You lean down on him, and wrap your arms around his shoulders. His hands slide down to your ass to grip you. “Proceed, BUT be careful, please.”
“Don’t worry, I gotcha.”
Harry’s hips thrust up inside you, and it feels absolutely amazing. His pace isn’t quite as slow as the one you were taking, but it wasn’t crazy fast either. You could feel his nails digging into your butt, and just the intense need he has for you. You use your hands to push yourself up. A confidence takes over you since everything is feeling good. You bounce on him while he thrusts up into you, both getting in sync.
“Fuck, you’re so sexy like this.” One of his hands slides up your body, reaching your cheek. You turn your face to kiss his palm.
You take his hand in yours and raise his fingers to your mouth. You kiss his index and middle finger before taking them into your mouth. You close your eyes and suck on them. Harry’s eyes nearly pop out of his head and his jaw drops. Who were you right now? You take his fingers out of your mouth. He grips the back of your neck, and pulls you down to him. His tongue goes into your mouth as his hands grip your hips to rock you faster on him.
“Fuck, Harry.” His dick is hitting that special spot inside. You sink your teeth into his neck, causing a growl to come from his lips.
“M’gonna come babe.”
You both were panting. Your back arches as you feel his hot come shoot up inside you at the same time your release comes. You collapse on top of him, you were exhausted having not ridden a dick in quite some time. He moves the hair that’s plastered to your forehead away, and kisses your hairline. You slightly lift up so he slip out of you, and you feel his come leak out of you. You feel a slight embarrassment since you were resting on one of his thighs. He was bound to feel it.
“You’re incredible.” He says, almost breathless. You look up at him. “I mean, just watching you go to town like that…” He runs a hand through his hair and looks down at you. “And then when you su-“
“Harry.” You cover his mouth with your hand, and hide your face in his chest. “Please, it’s too embarrassing.” He chuckles and rubs your back.
“Nothin’ to be embarrassed about.”
“I don’t even know why I did that…” You groan.
“It really turned me on, so please don’t second guess yourself.” He kisses the top of your head. “Sometimes when you’re in the heat of the moment, you just do things. Happens to me too.” You lean up and kiss him. “You did really well, took all of me no problem.”
“Right.” You didn’t have the heart to tell him that your vagina was throbbing. It was going to take you a while to get used to his size. Length is one thing, but the girth Harry had was just so thick.
“Do you feel safer on top?”
“I don’t know exactly.”
“Well, you didn’t get triggered.”
“I think it’s sort of like when we were just touching each other. Some things trigger and others don’t. I just happened to be fine this morning, and I’m thankful. Felt so good.”
“I’d love to lay in bed with you all day, but I don’t wanna waste our last day…”
“Me either. Let’s go get cleaned up. Then we can pack up, and enjoy the rest of the day.”
You get off of Harry, and step to get off the bed. You catch the blankets the wrong way, and end up slipping, and falling to your hands and knees.
“Shit!” Harry starts laughing. “This isn’t because of you, I slipped.”
“Whatever you need to tell yourself, love.”
//
You and Harry did some more sightseeing, and took a ton more pictures. You were feeling really clingy to him, so your hand never left his. He liked that you were being so affectionate. You could be so reserved in public sometimes. He liked putting your relationship on display.
“Wanna drive us back to the flat?”
“Really?!”
“Promised ya didn’t I?”
Harry hands you the keys, and you get it in. You drive slowly at first and laugh as you start to get the hang of it. He takes a video of you driving on your phone because he knows you’ll want to show everyone later.
“Expertly done.” He says as you pull into his flat.
You both feel sort of sad to be packing everything else up. But it’ll be nice to get home, and have a few more days off together. You and Harry plan to get him all moved in.
The ride to the airport is quiet, but comfortable. It was late, and you were both tired. Right now you were thankful your tickets were first class. You couldn’t wait to get cozy with Harry in the large seats. You drape your blankets over the both of you, and snuggle into his chest. This trip was better than you both ever could’ve expected.

Blade’s MHA Fanfiction Masterlist
Greetings friends!  This is the post listing all my past, present, and future My Hero Academia fanfictions.  Links are provided to what has been published so far.  Titles, summaries, and chapter counts are not final and will be updated as they change.  Please feel free to ask me about any and all the stories described here, not just the ones that have been published.  Thanks for reading!
(This currently version 14 of the masterlist, updated 9/9/2020)
Link to my Ao3 if you want to browse there: https://archiveofourown.org/users/aconstantstateofbladerunner/works
The Butterfly Continuity
- Butterfly - (Complete) The first over-night trip off campus since the training camp was supposed to be a fun break from more intense work back home.  But between a bleak introduction to chaos theory, a chilly reception from the locals, and the looming threat of a villain attack, Izuku has too much on his mind to properly enjoy the fresh air.  But those worries are a light breeze compared to the hurricane that accompanies what he finds on the outskirts of town.
Or rather, what finds him.
Izuku is stalked by a powerful creature who only seems to be interested in him.
32 chapters.  It’s done.  Beware major character death.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/17165612/chapters/40360787
- Moth - So how does Hisashi fit into this aftermath?
11 chapters.  Outline complete.  There will be angst.
- Exit Light [hiatus] - A young Toshinori is just starting to feel truly at ease with his master and his role as her apprentice.  But uncomfortable truths come to light once a villain threatens the lives of their entire town with all-consuming darkness.  “Consuming” in this case is literal.
A prequel story that is referenced in Butterfly, but neither are required to understand the other.
4/9 chapters.  Major events outlined.  Warning for heavy violence in ch. 2.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/19233598/chapters/45733516
For Izuku (Bio Dad Might AU)
- For Kurou - For their own safety, Toshinori must remove himself from the lives of his long-time partner and newborn son.  But they’re never far from his mind.  For years, not a day goes by where he doesn’t write a letter or set aside a gift for their eventual reunion.  It isn’t until he’s spent some time with his chosen successor, a young quirkless boy named Midoriya Izuku, that Toshinori’s consistent dedication to his family is interrupted.
Canon divergence fic.  Streamlined to the important stuff because there are already an abundance of fics like this and I want to focus on my original stuff.   Toshinko.  Family angst with a happy ending.
3/30 chapters.  Strap in.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/22882870/chapters/54692104
- For a Wider World - Izuku hasn’t decided yet if he wants to go public with his heritage.   On the one hand, he want to make a name for himself, not just as the son of All Might.  On the other, he hates to lie and lying about One for All is hard enough.  Most of the people who know the truth will support whatever decision he makes.  Sir Nighteye isn’t one of them.
10+ chapters.  Basic outline complete.  Internship arc.
- For an End to the Pain - UA is under investigation by the Hero Commission, the world knows about the son of All Might, and the fight with Overhaul has left Izuku severe wounds both physical and mental.  As the weight of all these drastic life changes bare down on him, for the first time ever, he starts to question if he really wants to be a hero.
8-10 chapters.  Basic outline complete.  A whole new level of angst.
- Son Rise - Rumors have been circling of a secret All Might lovechild for a while now.  A new rumor says that All Might will reveal the child as his successor at the next International Heroes’ Summit in Hawaii.  The rest of the hero community has mixed feelings.  
Or, “Izuku goes to another country with his dad and has a bad time.”  Shameless excuse for me to gush about how cool Hawaii was while also hurting my boy.  Some Toshinko on the side.  Family angst with a happy ending.  
11 chapters.  Major events outlined.
Single Fic Dad Might
- Angel’s Egg - Orphaned babies showing up on the stoop of hero agencies is unfortunately not all that rare.  And egg the size of a baby is entirely unheard of. Is the child within just the result of an unusual quirk, or something of far greater, supernatural origins?
Kinda out there au where Izuku hatches from an egg and is raised by All Might.  That question is posed to me, because I’m not yet sure if I want to go down the mundane or supernatural path; I have potential endings for both. 
4/20 chapters.  Structure similar to Full Metal Jacket in that the story will shift gears completely in the second half.  Heavy violence and potential character death
https://archiveofourown.org/works/21009755/chapters/49966448
- The Wails in the Walls - Toshinori was convinced his cottage was haunted from the day he moved in.  He could easily blame the missing objects and little bites in his food on pests, but that wouldn’t explain the faint sound of crying some nights.  
Izuku is a tiny child living in Toshi’s walls who survives by ‘borrowing’ little things.  Gonna jump between angst and fluffy like a seesaw.  Idea originally by @abyssal-glory who graciously gave me permission to use it.
5/21 chapters.  Violence, reference to death, and bugs.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/20392885/chapters/48368857
- Hanakotoba - Toshinori always wanted a family, but he wanted to be a hero even more.  He figured the family thing would happen naturally, but as the years go by and it doesn’t, he finds himself sinking further and further into longing.  And then he finds the end of his sorrows in his own garden.
Princess Kaguya au prompted by @agent-jaselin.  This one is for sure supernatural.
18 chapters.  Outline complete.  One scene of attempted sexual assault.
- Son of the Sun - Of all the gods, the Sun is the most generous with its gifts
Fantasy au where Izuku is the only child of the legendary son god Toshinori, and gets swept up in the apocalyptic destruction caused by a few other gods’ petty disagreements.
Outline incomplete, no chapter estimate.  This is the new roadtrip au.
Miscellaneous Multi-Chapter
- All but One - Toshinori is given the opportunity to undo over two decades of suffering by going back in time and ending All For One.  And that’s just the beginning.  He goes on to use his knowledge of the future to correct errors of the past, and makes his new reality infinitely better than the one he came from.  Better in every way but one.
Used to be a oneshot, now multi-chapter.  Open to making it an au but not sure yet.  Based on a bittersweet post by @skygemspeaks
10/18 chapters.  This was supposed to be short.  Warning for some violence.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/18796387/chapters/44597800
- The Necromancer - An unseen villain sets hoards of undead upon Japan.  As a designated disaster-relief shelter and a small fortress in its own right, UA becomes host to both the heroes working to stop the onslaught, and several hundred terrified civilians.  Supplies and space shrink with each passing day, and it seems like the end to the nightmare is nowhere in sight.  Someone is bound to take matters into their own hands.
Zombie Apocalypse AU.  Most of the kids stay within the walls to care for panicking civilians, while the heroes take the fight to the outside.  At first.
10+ chapters.  Some events planned. 
- Habitus - Tragedy forces Izuku back into the custody of his father, who he hasn’t seen in years and has a new family of his own.  They uproot him from UA, separate him from his friends, and, worst of all, expect him to be happy about it.
Formerly called Where the Heart is.  Izuku’s step family from America claims custody of him after Inko passes away, and are less than sympathetic to his situation.  He rebels in every way he can, meanwhile All Might and the other teachers comb for any legal loopholes to get him back.
Less than 10 chapters.  Outlined.
Oneshots
- Spiked - There’s no such thing as a free meal.
Gore headcanon request that got out of hand.  Please read the tags.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/20062174
- The Road that went Forever - Izuku’s Papa picked him up from kindergarten that day.  He hadn’t done that in a while.
Usually, I write Hisashi as a normal, emotionally distant father.  This is not one of those stories.  A very sad two-shot.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/21754498/chapters/51902485
And that’s all for now!  Again, please feel free to ask me about any of these ideas!

Fire and Night Chapter One (A Skyrim Fanfiction)
I’ve logged way too many hours into Skyrim to not write a fic about my character, Lavidia. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Skyrim Masterllist
All I wanted was a simple trip to Skyrim to visit the College of Winterhold, enjoy the aura in the clear starry night sky, explore the stone city of Markarth, maybe even climb the Throat of the World. I’ve even heard about some hidden moss caverns that stay beautiful year-round. The Rift looks like an autumn oasis during all the seasons. There’s even a rumor about a massive underground cavern hidden somewhere, filled with alchemical secrets I’ve only heard vague whispers of. I just wanted to explore a little, do some sight-seeing. But no, instead I somehow got roped into this damn civil war mess. I suppose that’s what I get for being a misinformed tourist. I should pay more attention to the barkeeps and their gossip. Maybe then I would’ve known about the Stormcloaks and the Imperial Army. I could’ve avoided Skyrim until the war ended. Then I wouldn’t be sitting here in the back of a jail cart next to the leader of the Stormcloak rebellion, Ulfric Stormcloak himself. I bet you’re wondering how in the hell did I end up in this situation. Yeah, me too. I was crossing the border into Skyrim from Cyrodiil. A snowstorm started sometime after I had left Frostcrag Spire, and I lost my way going through the mountains. I don’t know how, but I ended up way on the top of what I now know to be Froki’s Peak. As luck would have it, it happened to be slightly more sheltered from the blizzard than the rest of the peaks. So of course, that’s where I set up camp to wait out the storm. There I was, minding my own business, warming up by my fire and fending off frostbite. Enjoying my first glimpses of the starry sky in days, when the Imperial soldiers showed up. Four of them, brandishing their stupid swords and aiming their damn bow at me. Screaming about how I was violating the White-Gold Concordat. Demanding that I come quietly, or they were going to bring me in using force. That’s when I realized that I had been camping next to a Shrine of Talos, worship of which was illegal and punishable by death. Of course, they didn’t bother to listen to my lost, confused explanation of how I ended up there. Cold and startled, I let them strip me of my armor and weapons and tie me up to take to the jail in Helgen. Along the way, we met up with a convoy transporting several war prisoners. And that’s how I ended up riding to my death next to the leader of the rebellion, on my way to the chopping block because I wanted to see some damn lights. “And that’s how I ended up here.” I finished explaining to Ralof, another prisoner riding in the cart. “I’m sorry Skyrim’s beauty will be the cause of your death.” He sighed. “It’s a shame really.” “It is what it is, I suppose. That’s what I get for coming to Skyrim during the war.” I shrugged. By this point, I could see the walls of Helgen approaching. Our fate awaited us on the other side. “Wait, why are we stopping?” The thief, a cowardly fool, sounded absolutely terrified. “Why do you think? End of the line.” Ralof smirked sadly. “Let’s go, shouldn’t keep the gods waiting.” Ulfric stood up and jumped down from the cart, followed by the thief and then me. “No, wait, we’re not rebels!” The thief cried out. “Face your death with some courage, Thief.” “You have to tell them we weren’t with you!” “Hey, keep me out of this.” I held my bound hands up in front of me. “I may be here for an absolutely ridiculous reason but I’m still taking this like a warrior. Quit crying you milk drinker.” “Step towards the block when we call your name, one at a time!” A pretentious female voice called out, belonging to that of an Imperial captain. “Ulfric Stormclaok, Jarl of Windhelm.” A much softer, male voice sounded from in front of the group of prisoners. “It has been an honor, Jarl Ulfric.” Ralof bowed his head. Ulfric said nothing, considering he was bound and gagged. He simply walked towards the chopping block. “Ralof of Riverwood.” The voice called again. Ralof bowed his head to me and followed Ulfric. “Lokir of Rorikstead.” “No! I’m not a rebel! You can’t do this!” The thief, Lokir, made a mad dash past the soldiers towards the gate. “Halt! Archers!” The Captain shouted. “You’re not going to kill me!” Within seconds, Lokir was crumpling to the ground, an arrow sticking out of his chest. “Did he really think he was going to make it?” I sighed and closed my eyes. “How was that any more dignified than just getting your head chopped off?” “Wait, you there, Breton. Step forward.” I turned my head to see the man with the soft voice was speaking to me. I smiled and stepped towards him. “Who are you?” “My name is Lavidia. I’m a traveler. I was born on the road, so I hail from nowhere.” I dipped my head to him. “I doubt you will find me on your list.” “She’s right, Captain.” He spoke softly after going down his list. “Her name is not on here. What do we do?” “Forget the list, she goes to the block.” The Captain huffed. Wow, damn bitch. If my hands weren’t bound I’d burn her to a crisp. “I’m sorry, Lavidia. Is there anyone I can send your remains to?” His eyes were soft and sad. “I’ll tell them the truth of your death.” “No, sir. There is no one.” I stepped closer to him. “Can I have the name of the last person to show me kindness before I die?” “Hadvar.” He put a hand on my shoulder and turned me towards the chopping block. “Peace to you.” “Thank you.” I walked forward and stood beside Ralof. The first Stormcloak soldier stepped up to the block and kneeled. The executioner raised his ax and brought it down to his neck, severing his head in one clean swipe. “As fearless in death, as he was in life.” Ralof stood solemnly, saluting his fallen comrade. A loud roar sounded in the distance. “What was that?” I leaned over to Ralof. “I don’t know, but it sounded huge.” “You there, Breton. You’re next.” The Captain ordered. The roar sounded again, this time closer. “There it is again.” Hadvar was looking around. “What is it?” “I said. Next. Prisoner.” The Captain put her hand on her sword and stared daggers at me. I took slow steps towards the chopping block. They hadn’t even bothered to move the Stormcloak’s body and head. I had to kick his body out of the way so I could kneel down and stare into his lifeless eyes and I rested my head on the block. I looked up at the executioner just as he swung his ax up, and saw a creature I had only heard stories about crash onto the tower behind him. A dragon, black as night, deadly creature of legend. Or, not anymore I suppose. It roared, and the executioner stumbled backward, dropping his ax in the process. “What in Oblivion is that?!” “Sentries! What do you see?” The Captain called. Are you blind and dumb? Does that big helmet cut off circulation to your brain? Can you not see the giant scaled beast perched right in front of you?? “It’s a dragon!” I took that as my chance and scrambled to my feet. All of the Imperial soldiers were distracted, staring at the dragon. Now is as good a time as any to make a run for it, considering they’re all not paying any attention to us. “Hey, Lavidia!” I turned to see Ralof crouching beside me. “This way! The gods won’t give us another chance! Hurry!” I followed him into a tower. Inside stood Jarl Ulfric, along with a few injured Stormcloaks. As Ralof closed the door I heard screams from the villagers. “Jarl Ulfric, what is that thing? Could the legends be true?” Ralof was leaned over, gasping for breath. “Legends don’t burn down buildings.” Ulfric’s voice was deep and authoritative. I could see how he could become Jarl of Windhelm and lead an army of rebels to take the throne. Any speech given with his voice would probably have me mesmerized. “We have to get out of here, now!” “Come on, up through the tower!” Ralof grabbed my arm and started pulling me up the stairs. “This would be a little easier if my hands were free.” I pointed out as I stumbled over my feet. “Give me just a second, I’ll help you with that.” Ralof was reaching into his sheath for his dagger as the wall in front of us exploded into the tower. He crouched and pulled me down beside him as the dragon popped in and breathed a stream of fire in front of us. “You know what, I’ve got it!” I twisted my wrists and pulled, and the rope slipped off. I rubbed my wrists, which were bleeding slightly from rope burns. “How did you-?” “My parents were traveling merchants. We got held up on more than one occasion and I had to learn to slip my bindings.” I shrugged.”You’re a soldier and you don’t know how to do it?” “That’s not really on the training regime...” Ralof pondered for a moment. “But maybe it should be. But now is not the time to discuss this! Jump through the hole into the roof of the inn!” Ralof pointed at the slightly smoldering building next to us. “It’s the only way out of here now!” “See you on the other side!” I patted Ralof’s shoulder and jumped down through the roof, bending my knees as I landed to reduce the impact. I rolled forward and sprang up, dodging holes caused by the floor collapsing. I dropped down through one of the larger ones and ran out of the house through a massive gap in the side wall. In front of me was Hadvar, crouched down and shouting for a young boy to run towards him. As the boy was running past him towards an older man, Hadvar noticed me coming up behind him. “Still alive Lavidia? Stay close to  me if you want to stay that way.” I nodded at him and crouched beside him. “Gunnar, get Haming to safety. I’m going to join General Tullius in the defense.” “Gods guide you.” Gunnar grabbed the boy and led him away from the dragon. I followed Hadvar across the path to the base of the keep wall. He stopped and thrust his arm out in front of me just as the dragon came crashing down onto the wall. Its wing came down right in front of me, and I had to fight the urge to reach my hand out and touch it. Imagine actually touching one! We stood absolutely still, hesitating to even breathe until it took off again. Hadvar dropped his arm and we ran between a few houses towards a group of soldiers. “Hadvar! Into the keep, we’re leaving!” General Tullius, leader of the Imperial Army, was at the head of the soldiers, shooting arrows at the dragon while they made their retreat. “Come on, Lavidia!” I followed Hadvar towards the doors of the keep, watching as the dragon came down and snatched up one of the soldiers. He flung him up into the air and he came crashing back to the ground, landing in a crumpled, bloodied heap. "Hin sil fen nahkip bahloki." The dragon roared in the background as we stumbled in front of the keep. “Ralof! Damned traitor. Out of our way!” Hadvar had his sword drawn and ready to strike. Ralof was standing in front of the keep door, having had the same thought as us to escape. “We're escaping, and you’re not stopping us!” “Fine! I hope the dragon takes you all to Sovngarde!” Ralof turned and extended his hand to me. “Come on! Into the keep!” “You’re not thinking of going with this traitor, are you?” Hadvar’s jaw dropped slightly. “I’m sorry Hadvar, but your people tried to have me executed without a trial. How do I know if I’m really safe with you? How do I know you won’t turn around and try to execute me the moment we’re safe?” I went to stand beside Ralof. “I’m sorry.” “Just go. Get out of here.” Hadvar gritted his teeth and turned away from us. I hesitated, and then followed Ralof into the keep.
