    Summary

    Olruggio’s heart is pounding hard, so much he fears it might burst out of his chest. Usually, the reasons behind something like that are either strenuous physical activity or a stressful deadline, but, right now, he can’t quite blame it on any of those.
    It’s Qifrey, pressed up flush against him in a narrow alleyway.

    Or: Qifrey keeps everyone at arms' length, even during sex. Olruggio tries to bridge the gap anyway.

    Summary

    But this isn’t Olly… he thought. The real Olruggio would never do something like this to me… even if I begged him on my knees.

    After a week away on another one of his contraptions research trips, Olruggio return to the atelier in the dead of night. Of course, when Qifrey opens the door, he's expecting his familiar man.
    But the fact is the man standing in the doorway isn't his Olruggio.

    Summary

    Galga knew he was far from the first apprentice to sit up late at night having guilty, conflicted fantasies about his master, and at least in this case the man was his own age. The fact Atwert was currently his teacher could hardly make the situation that much more fraught than his own destroyed history already had.

    Galga caught on long ago that the absurdly charming man now teaching him his signs and sigils was once his lover. Alone in his small apprentice annex, fantasies about the future and speculation about the past merge.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    You only have to be a liiiiittle bit delusional to see through the heartbreak and imagine them having a happy future together. 💕 Probably the fic I'll judge all other Atwert/Galga fics against, whenever they exist. 😭

    Summary

    Qifrey bites down; Olruggio is grateful the tomato doesn’t spurt juice, or he would choke on his spit.

    He has to look away before he lets his prurient gaze sully his best friend, his lifelong friend.

    -

    Intimate touch is a new thing, to both parties involved.

    Summary

    Qifrey knows that mixing pleasure and pain is dangerous, but he also knows that he cannot have the former without the latter. He loves Olly too much to drag him into a messy love life on top of everything else.

    Easthies feels inexplicably attracted to Qifrey.

    They both know it's not love but why shouldn't they use each other for pleasure until they get tired of it?

     

    Spoilers up to chapter 95.

    Set between Qifrey's fourth and fifth test. To me, this feels like their (broke?) student days, maybe their early twenties. In my headcanon Easthies is slightly older. Qifrey does not yet wear glasses. I do not write slow burn, I burn the candle on both ends and I aim for maximum emotional damage. To me Orufrey is endgame and Easfrey is delicious, delicious toxic yaoi. I mean look at that dirty look at the very beginning of chapter 50.
