When the topic of their first official visit to the Czech Republic had come up, Jackie had turned towards Jamie and said, "I bet you the next month's morning briefings that Jágr needs less than twenty minutes before he holds Tyler's hand."
Or: when you flirt like it's a sport and you're training for the Olympics. And really, really want to win that gold medal.

They’re the kingsmaker and king-to-be, future in the making.
I decided to post the snippets and prompts I wrote for this ‘verse to the AO3. so everyone who’s been around here for a while, has (probably) already read these. if I write more -- no, when I finish more of the things I’m working on right now, anything below... a certain word count will get added here as another chapter.
when you write a tiny little epilogue thing for that huge story you wrote and then you go, this is 4k now and not done, this is neither tiny nor a snippet, and your friend laughs and says, nope, it totally isn’t, and you go to bang your head agains the wall for awhile because THIS STORY.
you know a story fucked you up when you’re driving to work and already thinking about work but then a Meat Loaf song comes on on the radio and you dial it up and laugh and cackle and sing along like a crazy person.
thanks, kingsmaker.

i need to speak to someone about this
jamie/segs, modern day royals, a/b/o dynamics, 54k.
How to crown a king.
shoutout to the way we nickname our own fics so much and p much call them that nickname exclusively (”the hellbeast” “the egg fic” “lots-o-handjobs”).
sometimes i see the title of an old fic and it takes me a minute to place it, like “that’s what i named the fake!married ot3, right. it has a name.”
jamie/segs, modern day royals au, a/b/o dynamics, mpreg. yes, this is a thing that is still happening. (dear lord, is it ever.) no, I’m not done with the real story. (nobody ask me about the word count, okay.) in the meantime, have another future snippet. the rest of it is here. all of them are set in the future. if you want to remain unspoiled for the actual story, skip these snippets.
”That was easier than I thought it’d be,“ Mom says quietly, finishing her signature and setting the pen down on the table. At her side, Jamie isn’t looking like anything about this is easy at all, and Tyler twitches a little in place, forcing himself to stay standing off to the side with Chancellor Nandi and her cabinet.
A flash goes off as the court photographer takes yet another picture, and Jamie blinks at it, looking up and yeah, judging from the expression on his face, he not only forgot about the photographer but also the camera team that’s filming right now. And now he’s remembering.
Technically, it’s just them in here to witness Mom resigning and Jamie stepping into power, but it’s a live broadcast, too. Not only their country is watching but the whole world, and Jamie looks about ready to throw up. Tyler feels pretty much the same, but for entirely different reasons.
