    Summary

    The door bangs open.

    Anger swiftly replaces his self-demolition. Ilya Rozanov is shutting the door behind him as if it’s expected for him to be there, like he and Shane discussed ahead of time to meet. His hands go into the pockets of his slacks when the door is closed, eyes cataloging the room with a detached casualness that makes Shane’s blood boil. He couldn’t even wait a second before coming to shit talk, could he?

    “The fuck do you want?” Shane pushes himself off the counter, turning to face Ilya.

    Ilya blinks at him like he’s surprised to see him. “Oh, well, I was waiting for you to leave so I could follow.”

    “Seriously?”

    “Yeah, I wasn’t sure you would get the hint if I got up first so I just waited for when you would inevitably run out to shit yourself.”

    It's time for the Boston Conservatory of Dark Arts to elect a new prefect for the next year. The candidates are Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, both elite witches of their class and both still not over the turbulent relationship that ended four years ago.

    Summary

    “Look it’s not that hard, just go be cool for a few hours and if you get stuck just ask yourself: WWHD–-what would Henry do?”

    They used to swap places all the time as kids. At school, at the playground, at practice. For fun. It had been easy then—like a quick changing of jerseys between periods. That was before the invisible fork in the road that had inexplicably parted them in their teens. It's been over a decade since they’ve done this bit. And Shane doesn’t want to do it. Not because he can’t do it but because he is so, so tired of playing clean-up crew for Henry’s fuckups.

    Shane hesitates, jaw tightening. Then he slowly exhales through his nose.
    “Do you. Still have. The clip-ons.” Shane grits out.

    Summary

    The more desperate you are, the easier it is to slip up, and then you lose more control, and you become even more desperate. It's a vicious cycle. The issue is, Hollander seems kind. And here’s the problem with kind people: when backed into a corner, they tend to hurt themselves instead of others.

    Shane has a background in boxing and needs to make a lot of money fast and Ilya isn't a gang leader, but he sure as hell seems like one sometimes.

    Summary

    For as long as he can remember, Zuko knew he would have no say in who he would marry. Anyone familiar with basic royal customs would realize it as well. Marriage wasn’t a luxury or some grand display of love; marriage was for convenience and a power move if done correctly. It meant nothing to Zuko. He was raised with the knowledge that he would one day be sent off to live with a stranger for the sake of his nation, and it didn’t matter if he ended up happy or not. His happiness didn't matter.

    All this to say, when his father tells him that he is to marry a stranger from the Southern Water Tribe and use their marriage as an opportunity to spy on the enemy, Zuko knows he has no choice. It's just...he didn't expect this stranger to be so kind to him.
