Chapters: 12/? Fandom: Stranger Things (TV 2016) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Billy Hargrove/Steve Harrington

Chapter Twelve: not with claws and all that (part two) is up!

Billy shrugs loosely, draining his beer. “Throw the dice for an initiative spell or something.”

The look Harrington gives him is one of pure confusion.

“Your nerd-burger game?” he tries. “The one you play with my sister and her friends? Dorks and Dragons?”

“Dungeons and Dragons,” Harrington corrects amusedly. “And I don’t think that’s how it works. You don’t cast spells. You roll for, I don’t know, skills or something. I haven’t read the instructions yet.”

“Whatever. Roll for some sack.”

“Yeah, I don’t know if you can do that. There’s like, Strength, Wisdom….Being a Wizard? I don’t know. Henderson told me it has something to do with what kind of fighter you pick at the start, and then what score you have. And you’re not allowed to just make cool stuff up,” he says, clearly put out. “Maybe you can roll for Charisma, but you’d have to have a high score first.”

“What I gotta roll to make you shut up?”

Hi, this is me returning from the dead with my very last gasp of breath to tell everyone to read this fucking story. Okay. Back underground we go. 

Chapters: 10/? Fandom: Stranger Things (TV 2016) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Billy Hargrove/Steve Harrington

Chapter Ten is up and it is an actual beast of a chapter. 

Billy breathes out a low whistle. “Jesus, Harrington. There anything you’re not afraid of?”

Harrington squints at him, mouth curling up on one side. It’s a good look on him. “Heights.” He sneers at Billy. “Californians.”

Damen:

Is a brilliant military strategist and commander

Helped Laurent turn a bunch of mercenaries into a loyal army in a couple of weeks. As an Akielon slave, he convinced these people to follow his command

Figured out that they were walking into a rockslide based on the fact that the terrain was unsuitable for any other type of ambush, and saved everyone by knowing exactly how far off the road they’d have to go to be safe

Keeps calm in difficult situations and reasons out the best course of action

Won Laurent a Veretian fortress, which are notoriously difficult to conquer, using a strategy that accurately assessed the risks and benefits of splitting up their troops

Likes Akielon poetry. Is particularly into super long war epics

Speaks nearly flawless Veretian, among other languages

Was the one to figure out that Paschal had evidence of the Regent’s crimes, which not even Laurent managed to do

Can tell when Laurent needs to be left alone versus when he needs sense talked into him

Also Damen:

I speak your language better than you speak mine, sweetheart

Has the emotional intelligence of a pineapple

Doesn’t remember the names of the people he’s slept with

*gropes the Prince of Vere in the baths* *is shocked at there being consequences for this*

Loses all his brain cells in the presence of hot people

See that last point again

Torveld: *flirts with laurent* Damen: *frowns*

Tries to escape Arles. Is recaptured immediately

Tries to fight an entire Vaskian clan with his hands tied behind his back

Asks Laurent if he’s straight

*Sees his lover in less clothes than usual* *literally drops a pitcher*

Walks into the palace at Ios, his childhood home, using the code name Damen. Yes very stealthy. Definitely fooled those guards.

“Laurent is innocent because I love him so much. Listen to how much I love him. This is clearly an effective argument for a trial.”

Puts away his sword around Kastor. Stabby Kastor. Still-has-a-knife Kastor.

Insists that his life-threatening injuries are quote unquote “not that bad.”

Never listens to nik

Never listens to his doctors

In conclusion:

[yolo-contendre]

do you ever look back at your relationship with someone on the internet and just think oh my god i’m so fucking glad i clicked follow they make my life so much better
