When Alex landed his first job as a stuntman, his dad had sat him down to pass on some advice. Don’t take on more than you can handle just to impress someone, he’d said, and never hide injuries. Always speak up if you’re concerned about safety on set. Make sure to always get enough sleep. And never, ever, get involved with the actors. He never said anything about directors, though.

(When Alex agreed to take a job doing stunts for a movie directed by his ex, all he wanted was to make it out in one piece. After a rocky start, they figure out a way to work together again, but that new equilibrium is tested when the film’s lead actor goes missing and Alex finds himself thrown into a world of secrets, blackmail, and people actually trying to kill him. Saving Henry’s movie just might be his most dangerous stunt yet, but can he play the hero, or is he destined to be the fall guy?)

But Friday nights are just for them. People no longer make fun of Henry’s accent the way they used to in elementary school—they look at him now. It’s weird, and it makes something in Alex’s jaw hurt. “Oh shit, it’s late and I know we have Bea’s piano recital in the morning. Should probably go to bed, yeah?” Alex pulls his shirt off and slides under the covers before yanking it down on Henry’s side for him, an invitation. Henry doesn’t move, though—instead, he’s chewing his bottom lip and staring at the floor, pointedly not looking at Alex.

Or, five times childhood best friends Alex and Henry share a bed platonically, and the one time (of many) they do as something more.

Henry closes the door behind him, locks it, then drops his keys into the little ceramic dish that sits on the console table. He takes off his shoes and shrugs off his jacket, tucking them neatly into the cupboard by the door. There’s music filtering down the hall—Hall and Oates. He smiles. “Love?”

Yep, these boys needed an epilogue. Thanks to @smc-27 @dustratcentral and @celeritas2997 for convincing me and brainstorming with me!

[Nova, Baby] by chamel

My god. This fic.

I could reread this fic over and over again (that and its companion/sequel holiday fic ... 😉). Back when I finished other canon-divergent fics about firstprince, I wondered what it would be like if Alex and Henry were a different kind of badass, and here comes chamel’s AU. Hit me like a MACK truck

And how she manages to include a 5+1 trope in the middle of it??? Are you freaking kidding me??? UGH ❤️❤️❤️

chamel if/when you read this, you’re one of my favourite firstprince writers and I’ve already said this to you before but what an inspiration you are and you deserve nothing but great things.

I am particularly proud of how Bea looks exceedingly badass on the cover. And because Oscar Isaac seems to be one of the main contenders for fan casts when it comes to Raphael Luna, he neeeeeded to be on this cover.

The full poster that can be added to the .epub file for your kindle/e-book reader is at the end of the post! If you need any assistance, please don't be afraid to ask!

It’s fine. They only have to fool his friends, and his family, the United States Government…and themselves.

WIP Wednesday (except they're not wip's anymore)

The lovely @dot524 submitted these two fics for our wip wednesday post a few weeks ago, but I've only just realized I never published the post 🥲 pls forgive my chaos and read these two wonderful (now complete!) fics 💕

@dot524: I loved Binary Light, and this sequel is fantastic too. Henry and Alex as movie stars, trying to hide their relationship from the paparazzi. Their dynamic in this story is so fascinating. All the storylines are woven together perfectly, along with flashbacks to the original story. I really want to read a side-fanfic of both the movie and Henry’s book — the details are so thoughtful and imaginative. Highly recommend!
@dot524: Childhood friends to lovers with angst, joy, and self-discovery sprinkled in with humor. This story is told with a mix of letters and prose, like RWRB itself, and it’s fun to see how this alternative scenario unfolds. It’s a great one to follow!

Body and Soul(mate) [COMPLETE]

When he opens his eyes he’s no longer in Brooklyn. To be fair, that’s the least pressing issue at the moment. Top of that list would be the absolutely excruciating pain in forearm and, oh yeah, the fact that people are shooting at him.

(Well past the age where most people have swapped bodies with their soulmate, Alex has all but given up on the idea that he might have one. But when he suddenly swaps in the middle of a rooftop chase and finds himself caught up in a deadly game of cat and mouse, he quickly discovers how far he's willing to go to save his soulmate's life.)

THE WIND IN OUR FREE-FLOWING SAILS (AND THE LIQUOR IN OUR COCKTAILS)

[rated E; 1,889 words]

Alex hasn’t noticed before. Not in all the months he’s been coming here, ever since it opened: flirting with the outrageously hot bartender who doesn’t offer a menu and instead sits down and introduces himself to his customers, talks to them about what they like to drink, and then pulls something together based on their specific tastes. Not tonight, when he came without June or Nora, never straying from his barstool, letting Henry mix him a few drinks over the course of the evening, all of them different and all of them, inevitably, perfect. Not when he was teasingly comparing the high-brow cocktails to college body shots and claiming that there wasn’t any difference, just to see the flash in Henry’s eyes as he’d argued. Not after last call, when he’d stayed where he was as the speakeasy emptied around them, fingers circling the rim of his long-empty glass, and Henry had let him.

Or, Henry is a speakeasy bartender, and Alex is the surface for body shots. Then they fuck about it. That's the fic.

False Dichotomy

One of the world’s largest retailers is opening a store on his street. A bookstore. He looks down at the article in his hand again and catches sight of a phrase: “We hope that people will see this as more than a bookstore, and hope to foster a sense of community.” As if Henry Fox-Mountchristen has any concept of what community means. Alex very narrowly does not break something.

(When global mega-retailer Mountchristen opens a new location—led by the infuriatingly attractive and insufferable Henry Fox-Mountchristen—near his LGBTQ-focused bookshop in Soho, Alex's comfortable life is turned upsided down. Luckily, he has one of his best friends to turn to: a guy he met online and knows only as H. Meanwhile, Henry is battling against his family to make a positive difference in the world and falling further in love with a man he's never met. But... what if they changed that?

Summary

“Whose turn was it?” Henry asks while Alex is busy pondering the merits of throwing himself out their fifth-story window and hoping his boner doesn’t take anyone’s eye out on his way down. “Forgive me, but I am a bit tired. Do you think you could take it?” There’s no way that Henry’s not doing this on purpose. He makes words mean things when put in a certain order for a living, for fucks sake. Alex almost quips back depends on how big it is just to see how—or if—Henry would react. “Yeah, um, no problem.” There. Much more normal. He could steal Henry’s job at this rate. “Truth or dare?”

Or, Alex’s world gets flipped on its axis during a game of truth or dare

This was so much fun to write - I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't smiling during a lot of it. I haven't posted in so long, so I'm both excited and nervous to be getting back to it. I hope that y'all enjoy this one! :) Read it here

Several Sentence Sunday

Happy Sunday!!

I just posted my fic Longer Than Most, in celebration of one year writing for RWRB! So fun :)))

In celebration, here's a snippet from Chapter One:

Still, Nora must catch on to his glum attitude when he exits his room, because instead of saying hello or asking how his night went like a normal person, she says, “You look way too much like Grumpy Cat right now for someone who had sex for the first time in at least a month.” “Fuck you,” Alex says, making a beeline for the coffeemaker. “First of all, it has not been a month. You’re forgetting Blowjob Benji after that awful stand-up show you dragged me to. And second of all, how do you know I had sex? Especially since you had all my condoms.” He turns around as the coffee starts brewing. Nora’s grinning at him knowingly, which is pretty much par for the course. “Well, that doesn’t hurt the fact-finding mission,” Nora says. “But, also, I passed a blond man on the stairs this morning, clearly in the midst of a walk of shame. Unless the lesbians across from us have suddenly had a change of heart, I’m thinking he was coming from here. Which, like, go you. That guy was hot.”

ALL THE LONELY STARBUCKS LOVERS

[rated E, 5,895 words]

“That floor doesn’t look like it’s very comfortable on your knees, is all.” Henry leans forward, scooping out a piece of brownie that got under the counter, somehow. “I wouldn’t worry about that—my knees are quite used to it.” A full four seconds of silence follows this pronouncement, during which Henry focuses very hard on opening a trap door directly into hell with the power of his mind.

Or, five times Henry puts his foot in his mouth in front of his customer crush, and one time he puts his dick in his customer crush's mouth instead doesn't.

NONE OF MY LOVE WILL GO TO WASTE

[rated E, 5,306 words]

Alex had pulled away at the sound of the door opening, is the thing. He’d looked up at Henry with wide eyes and spit-slick, swollen lips, and Henry knows intrinsically that he will never be rid of that mental image. He’ll take it into the shower later, into bed tonight, into the rest of his natural life; if he hits his head tomorrow and winds up with some medically implausible form of amnesia, the key to unlocking his identity will be the enduring memory of a beautiful mystery man and his perfect cock-sucking mouth.  Because Alex was—Christ, he was—

Or, Henry has made peace with the fact that he's in love with his straight roommate. When he walks in on said "straight" roommate with a man, though, he may need to re-evaluate.
