This Sudden Burst of Sunlight [AO3]
Does that signature critrole thing: makes you cry laughing and then sucker-punches you in the feelings. A Vax/Gilmore and Keylith/Kash get-together fic that really deals with that, and who all of them are as people, and what they want. My one single complaint is that it's not polymachina, of which I am unreasonably fond. Complete.
The Words [AO3]
Listen. Listen. Soulmate AUs are a Good and Noble Tradition. Also, this one is really sweet as well as having that tasty edge of angst. Plus Percy is textually bi, which is a headcanon hill I will die on. Percy/Vex, complete.
Stuck on You [AO3]
The twins' father and Dad de Rolo are insufferable noble friends and affiance their children, mostly as an expression of dislike towards said children. It goes surprisingly well, all things considered. Percy/Vex, incomplete. Looks to be dead, but it ends in a good place that feels mostly satisfying.
The Wise Man's Tree [AO3]
Gothic romance, in every sense of the phrase. A weird but persistent whiff of Myst. Big, juicy chapters with some utterly lyrical turns of phrase. A dark phantom lurking in Whitestone, and our intrepid adventurers are set to solve the mystery. Vex/Percy, Vax/Gilmore, incomplete and with a glacial posting schedule.
Try Again to Get it Right [AO3]
The prose on this one is a little...eh, but it's not bad and also it's a fixit fic that fixes the death of the de Rolos as well as the Conclave and everything after. Plus it's fun, and it actually touches on the whole "we went back in time and changed our own lives and now we're the only ones who remember how it used to be" thing, which is nice. Vex/Percy, complete.
Steel and Smoke and Skin [AO3]
This is all porn, and polymachina porn at that, so if you are under eighteen or aren't interested....don't. That said, this is some of the most deliciously emotional, angsty porn I've read in a good long while, so if you want alternating pov on Percy being a huge, touch-starved mess with a garnish of each member's own personal neuroses than you can't go wrong. Polymachina, incomplete, and looks abandoned, but what is there is Good Shit.
I Saw Forever The Moment I Met You [AO3]
It's sweet. It's kind. It's gentle. It's Percy POV Vex/Percy, and it is complete.
