“I don’t want to keep you from working. Which is what I assume you were doing before I came in, not that it’s any of my business what you’re doing back there.” He nodded in the direction of the backroom, aware that he was talking too much. Again. “If you’re worried about leaving me alone up front, I can stand in the doorway and keep in your line of sight.” 

“My line of sight, huh.” A moment of silence settled between them in which the woman inclined her head. “I wouldn’t mind some company,” she then said. “Name’s Aurelia, by the way.”

“Laurent,” Laurent said before he remembered that he should not have given her his real name. Whatever. He was only here to buy some candy, right? “Pleased to meet you.”

I would take my time with you. I would break you slowly, deliberately, painfully. Your sleeping patterns, your eating habits, your behaviors and mind, all taken note of and messed with, slowly, until you start losing it.

Part 1 - Forsaken

A Till Death AU

I have no explanation for this. I don’t know what’s different from my usual daydreams, but this one has been haunting me for a few weeks, and I had to get it out. Parts of it can serve as nightmare fodder for either of them in canon.

Major spoilers for Till Death in this thing, obviously. Three parts, 2,5-3k words each. Content warning: It’s fucking cold.

Cocky warrior meets icy scholar

Retrieving some possibly magic rocks should have been an easy mission. Unfortunately, the rocks turn out to be not magic, and the mercenaries assigned to protect Josephine’s group are a nuisance. And while their leader’s refusal to follow her orders starts out as a mere annoyance, it culminates in a tragic accident.

Between grievous injury and disgrace, both of their lives fall apart. Josephine might never hold a sword again, and Valadan is back on the streets with nothing to his name. As he insists on helping her get back on her feet, Josephine realizes that there’s more to him than his rude behavior. Similarly, he finds that she isn’t the spoiled princess he thought her to be.

Together, both of them might heal—if they can overcome the damage they’ve done to each other’s lives.

This story/ebook has previously been published under the title Heal my Wounds. For personal reasons, I finally decided to yeet the old title into the sun and give it a more fitting cover. Better late than never, right?

You can find playlists, moodboards, bios, as well as more detailed content warnings in the old masterlist.

"I'm hungry,"

"I- I'm in the middle of kidnapping you!"

"Yeah, yeah, go ahead, I won't stop you, I'm just asking if we can get something to eat on the way,"

It was a children's promise, but both princesses meant it sincerely. If one was put in a tower, the other would come rescue them.

Years later, one sent a letter: "I am in the tower. But know, I must marry whoever rescues me."

The other princess ran to the stables at once.
