dad damen au part six
Damen knows he’s done the right thing.
He knows.
But, lying awake in the sweltering heat, sheets pooled across the foot on the bed, his mind keeps swirling with images of Laurent’s teary-eyed, boyish stare, the shake of his chin, and the rapid rise and fall of his chest.
He fixates on all the details. He has to, to stay sane. He remembers the small, hitched breaths Laurent had exhaled, the curl of his fingers, the bluish-green veins across his eyelids, the insides of his wrists. He remembers the twitch of his jaw as he’d begged Damen to say something, the way the movement had drawn his eyes to the beauty mark on the underside of his chin. He remembers how familiar Laurent had smelled too; citrusy and clean.

Everything Has Changed
read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/aP5JBHF by laurentspup Four days before Halloween, Damen has a new neighbor. When Damen's new neighbor Laurent moves in to the house next to him, he ends up meeting everyone in Damen's life before him, and each of them look at Damen knowingly, as if they know something he doesn't (which would be his new neighbor, Laurent). When Laurent moves in to his new house, he doesn't expect to be hearing about his neighbor, Damen, the very tall, author, and single dad with two kids from all his family and friends except for the man himself. And they all talk about him like he's the epitome of sunshine. Funny how two neighbors take forever to meet and possibly change the trajectory of each other's lives. or 4 times Damen misses meeting Laurent and the 1 time he finally does in a fairy costume.

BUT and this is true i have a week break soon and i only plan to write write write new bitch and i will update that week i WILL
still, here is a little sneak peek of the draft because why not
New Bitch Chapter VIII
“We won’t be getting any work done, will we?” Damianos says, the grin betraying his tone.
Laurent winks. “That’s not how I got into Vask Enterprises.”
Damianos’ grin grows wider, mouth opening as if to answer, when his door suddenly opens. Jokaste enters, her heels clacking on the pristine white tiled floors.
She’s looking at her iPad, unbothered, as if she has better things to do. Telling enemy secrets to Kastor, probably. 
Laurent doesn’t move away from Damianos. Jokaste doesn’t faze him either. Damianos stays there too, staring at her with a little more emotion than Laurent would ever show anyone.
Jokaste looks up. “I didn't know it’s bring your pet to work day.”
“Isn’t that everyday with you around? Hissing to Kastor about Damianos.” Laurent looks at her fingers. “Congratulations, by the way. The ring must be heavier than your conscience.”
“You’ll notice that, won't you?”
Damianos sits on his chair, but not before squeezing Laurent’s hand. Standing in between two snakes will really drain his energy quickly. 
Laurent follows suit, standing right next to his office chair, placing his elbow on the headrest. He feels the way Damianos leans nearer to him. Jokaste doesn’t show any reaction if she sees it.
She walks to Damianos’ table and places the iPad in front of him. There’s a spreadsheet on the screen, a color-coded schedule of Damianos’ day. At least Jokaste still does her job. 
“Your schedule for today.” Damianos picks it up to read. Laurent notices how he tilts the screen so he’ll have a view of it too. “You have a meeting at one with your PR because of your pictures from yesterday.”
“Had that meeting before?” Laurent can’t help saying.
There’s a pause so small, it’ll be unnoticeable if Laurent doesn’t know who he’s dealing with. 
“They’ll need a statement. You’ve been avoiding the media for too long now.” She continues. “You’re trending everywhere. It’s not long before it starts affecting your position.”
“Wouldn’t that be good for you and Kastor, though?” It’s Damianos who mutters. 
Laurent doesn’t hide his amused expression. “Still, sorry for stealing your number one spot on the trending page. I know you paid a lot for the press coverage.”
Her expression stays the same, but there’s a difference in the way she’s holding herself, like she never expected Damianos to address her infidelity so boldly in the open. She ignores Laurent’s statement, however.
“I’m sure they’ll be glad to know you brought him to be briefed too.” She simply continues.
“Oh, I'm not just here for that.” There’s a glint in Laurent’s eyes. His tone makes her finally look at him. “Damen, tell her, what else I’m here for.”
Jokaste raises her perfectly plucked eyebrows as she returns her gaze to Damianos, expression bored. 
“I found a new secretary.” Damianos isn’t even sparing her a glance. “Please show Laurent around and teach him your responsibilities. Once you’re done, you can pack your things.”

📢Psychonauts NSR AU, Chapter 6: LARS Rap 1📢
After fighting the digital idol Raz. Milla and Sasha headed to see Gristol again.
“Hey Gristol.” Sasha greeted.
“Spectacular performance at Akusuka, you two. Simoly impressive!” Gristol commented.
“Thanks, those gadgets and hints of yours were helpful.” Sasha replied.
“Yeah! What do you have for us next?” Milla asked.
“I’m in the middle of preparing. But there is a bit of commotion going on outside. Maybe you guys can check it out to see what is going on.” Gristol explained.
“That sounds like a good idea.” Sasha responded.
“Take your time darling, we'l find out what’s going on outside.” Milla replied as she and Sasha left the sewers.
~
When they got out, they saw a teenager with purple hair in a wheelchair rolling to see them.
“Milla and Sasha! I’ve been waiting!” The teenager said.
“Ooh! For what?” Milla asked.
“Oh… forgot my manners, I’m Morris. I heard about your gigs about that DJ and idol. I’m thrilled to see your efforts to make a change! Simply inspirational!” Morris explained.
“Well thank you Morris!” Milla responded. “If you want, you can join us against the stand of NSR?” Milla asked.
“Of course! I could get K.L.O.B. on, it’s my recently new radio talk show I just created.” Morris responded.
“Ooh, how’s it coming along?” Sasha asked.
“It was going great, I just need time to gather my equipment.” Morris explained.
“You can set it up at our place! We have some space that could get filled up.” Milla responded.
“That sounds like a good idea! I’ll get K.L.O.B. on right now!” Morris responded. He waved goodbye to them as the two rockers left to see the commotion.
They saw that there was loud laughter and cheering near the entrance to the Qwasa. And they saw that it was a man who center stage, Sasha immediately knew who it was. And was not prepared for it.
~
“Well well well, schau, wer sich entschieden hat, aufzutauchen!” The man spoke.
“Oh no…” Sasha said as he pinched his nose.
“Sieht so aus, als hättest du ein neues Mädchen? Wie viele Damen schleppst du heutzutage ab, huh?” The man asked. He then turned to Milla. “Missy, der Name ist LARS! Hah!” He greeted. “Ein Schattenrhythmus-Superguy! Eine Vergangenheit und Gegenwart der Extraklasse!” He explained. “Und am wichtigsten…” he continued.
“Dad… no.” Sasha softly whispered.
“Exactly! Sasha’s father!” LARS chuckled. “Du musst Milla sein.” He greeted.
“Oh…” Milla spoked. She turned to Sasha. “How come you never tell me about your father?” She asked.
“Because Milla, because.” Sasha responded.
“Because what? I need more clarification!” Milla explained.
“Look, Dad. Why are you here?” Sasha asked with slight annoyance.
“Oh, das ist nichts, ich zeige den Leuten nur, was echte Musik ist.” LARS responded.
“Real music? Willst du es wirklich hier machen? Jetzt?!” Sasha asked.
“Autsch! Du bist immer so, always angry.” LARS replied. “Ich vergesse deinen Geburtstag, always angry. Ich beantworte Ihre Nachrichten nicht, always angry. Ich habe dein Schlagzeug verkauft, always angry.” LARS explained. “Sei nicht so. Entspann dich.” He continued.
“Stop it, Dad. You’re disrupting our music revolution. We got things to do. And I do not have the patience to play around you, you understand?” Sasha responded.
“Relax mein Sohn, relaaaax.” LARS explained. “Wenn du deine Fans zurückhaben willst, musst du mich in einem Rap-Battle schlagen!” LARS explained.
“I said that I am not in the mood!” Sasha responded with his eye twitching.
“Gut, aber komm nicht heulend zu mir, wenn alle deine Fans jetzt meine sind.” LARS explained. That did it. That made Sasha a bit angry.
“Fine!” Sasha yelled. The rap battle was one.
~
LARS:
When you see Sasha in school
 He was constantly out of fuel
 All he does is follow me like a stinking fly
 He can’t help it coz I’m the trailblazing guy

Sasha:
Oh, you should see Lars isn’t cool.
 He ain’t nothing but a ridicule
 He thinks he’s a top hat
 But when in truth he’s definitely not that.
 Feels like he’s entitled to everything
 Tells the birds for him they should sing
 Chest up, walks around proud
 But a small push and he will sure drop loud

Sasha:
Haha haha haha haha
 Being popular don’t mean a thing
 You think you’re the centre of everything
 But this greatness that you speak
 Simply hides the fact that you’re meek
 And these delusions are really your illusions
 And your rhymes are just behind the times
 You think that you are a king
 But if I said that, I’d be lying
 The world doesn’t revolve around you
 Even in a multiverse, you’re not worth a verse
 Huh Lars (Where’s) Lars?
 Rest in Peace - Oh… he’s dust

Then how about Sasha in college?
 He still thirsts for my knowledge
 Only knows how to trail me by
 Or else, alas, he does nothing but cry
 He thinks he’s a real ace
 When he’s a real bad case
 All he does is copy my moves
 And make mismatched tempos that don’t groove

Sasha:
Lars in life is such a sham
 The top spot is no longer his to claim
 All respect he used to have
 Has now but drop drop drop in half
 He hates seeing me succeed so well
 He turns into a child and bids me bye bye
 The once great West with all his charming ability
 Has now learnt a hard lesson in humility
Crowd:
L-A-R-S
He is the best
L-A-R-S
He is the best
L-A-R-S
He is the best
L-A-R-S
He is the best
LARS:
Sasha’s a real baddie robber
 Not even a show stopper
 He stole all my friends
 Had none none none of his own
 And Hollis man, you remember that girl?
 You only added her coz I told you see?
 You couldn’t stop at stealing friends
 You stole a girl
 That made me couldn’t breathe
 Robber of friends
 Copycat Sasha
 You ain’t nothing without your father
 You ain’t nothing without your father…
 You ain’t nothing without your father!
Sasha:
Hollis never liked you dad
 Coz you were slimy sleazy cheesy
 You’re supposedly a hero actually si desperado
 From a scale of 1 to 10
 You were below the bottom of the lame lame end
 You were never as good as you thought

 You think you’re a marathon runner
 You never even ran

After the rap battle was done.
“Hah… du hast nur gewonnen, weil ich dich gelassen habe!” LARS spoke.
“No, you didn’t!” Sasha argued back.
“Ich sage dir was, du gehst zuerst eine Pause machen. Ich komme wieder, wenn du gelernt hast, wie ein Profi zu rappen, okay? Auf Wiedersehen!” LARS said as he left.
“Hey where are you going? I won this battle fair and square, you hear me?! Hey!” Sasha shouted. “Fine. Leave!” Sasha sighed.
“Okay then… I’m sensing some anger from here. Sasha, what happened to you? You were always calm.” Milla asked.
“Ugh… sorry, I just get upset when that man is… is just… AUGH!” Sasha said as he kicked a trash can.
“Well… maybe it would be better if we go back to Gristol about what who we’re fighting next.” Milla said.
“Sounds like a good plan.” Sasha responded as the two left the alley way.

Als besonders ‘systemrelevant’ für das erfolgreiche Hinterherspüren von Personen (sogen. Tracking in der Straße) erwies sich aber schon immer auch ein von außen angebrachter sogen. Strich-er-kot(e)! Wie jenen z.B. auf der Aldi-Einkaufstüte oder sogar der Coca-Cola aus Amerika. (Sogar heutige moderne E-Scouter haben ihn. Hier wiederum dient er dem Verfolgen anderer meist!) Dennoch es fällt extrem leicht, hier den eigenen Verfolgern notfalls auch selber erfolgreich einen Strich durch die Rechnung erneut zu machen. Ein überlanger modischer Fingernagel z.B. einer Dame reicht dafür schon oft aus! (Bei der Dose erweist sich das oft so allerdings als nicht hinreichend.) Ein Staat, der nun seine eigenen Bürger wirksam vor solch modernen Verfahren des Trackings in Zukunft für auch das eigene Staatsgebiet und in den eigenen Innenstädten wirksam beschützen u. bewahren wollte, müsste also zuallererst ein Gesetz bei sich erlassen, welches diesen Strichercode generell Händlern und anderen so bei sich verbietet! So hat z.B. der E-Scouter moderne ein enorm hohes Eigengewicht! Dafür mitverantwortlich ist immer auch der sehr schwere Akku solcher Scouter oder Ladegerät. Fußgänger sind dann immer ganz besonders an ihren Fersen dadurch gefährdet! Sollte er ernämlich über den selben Strichcode auch bei sich verfügen, wird er geortet! Und zwar durch den E-scouter-Fahrer selber, welcher sich dann vielleicht direkt wieder hinter ihm bewegt, und per Navi-! (*Handies, privat mitgeführte, besitzen solche Navi-Funktionen- und Tools ganz oft auch, oder exzellente Ortungsmöglichkeiten anderer, er kann aber selbst das vorinstallierte Google Map dafür einsetzen).
Der moderne E-Scouter : ‘Ey, man, he shouted, what are you doing there, vor Heaven’s sake!”
Wolltest du mir mit dem Ding in die Hacken fahren??
Ey! + shout + ein erneuter Er
Diesbezüglich gibt es besonders zahlreiche auch noch weitere Standardverfahren, einige liste ich hier nachstehend auf! Alle führen sie zu sehr schweren Unfällen!!
1. Der Radfahrer, er ist auf dem seitlichen Radweg unterwegs, fährt dabei in die plötzlich durch seinen Fahrer (besonders weit) aufgerissene und geöffnete Seitentüre eines auf dem Standstreifen oder dem Bürgersteig abgestellten Wagens. *Was oft auch als erneutes: ‘Plötzliches In-dooring’ wohl scherzhaft so dann erneut bezeichnet und erwähnt werden wird in der Verkehrsstatistik, selbst seitens mancher Reporter oder heutiger Verkehrsexperten dann erneut.
*Der Besucher oder Besucherin eines Restaurants oder Bar versucht vom Besuch der Toilette in den Schankraum von selbigem erneut zurückgelangen. Dabei trifft er auf eine Pendeltür. Diese wird durch jemand anderen plötzlich mit enorm viel Kraft u. Schwung von außen aufgestoßen. Jemand stößt sie ihm direkt ins Gesicht. Von der gewaltigen Wucht des Schlages geht er zu Boden. (Der erneut gleich wieder auch mitenthaltene Strich-code selbst auf der privat in der Handtasche mitgeführten Spraydose mit dem Haarspray von Damen oder der Puderdose, stellt dabei nur eines der besonders auch noch anderen zahlreichen Beispiele dar, wie der selbe Trick notfalls jederzeit auch erneut funktionieren und greifen kann, selbst im Falle einer vielleicht nichts-ahnenden Dame oder Damen!)
“Uns Uwe *Fussballer wird schwer verletzt bei durch ihn unverschuldetem Autounfall”
“Kanzler trifft auf Wanderung durch den Allgäu rein zufällig auf Gruppe berühmter Kanuten”. (Wobei wohl Scholz kaum selber wieder gemeint war von der heutigen BILD, stattdessen ein ganz anderer! Auch wenn er direkt neben dieser Gruppe dabei stand und selber gleich wieder mit abgelichtet war!)
Der Ka-nut : Sehr wahrscheinlich geht es um die erneuten Nüsse von Pa oder des Papas!! (Ermöglicht würde dadurch sogar beidhändiges Zuschlagen des-/derjenigen gleichzeitig!). Der ‘Stand-up!!’-Paddler (Leider nur einseitiges Zuschlagen diesmal möglich!): Danach steht auch ihr nicht wieder so schnell auf! Now, stand up, Dad, or rise again, one more time, yet only if you can, from the river and its waves! Or just the sea! (*If the place where we are by accident this time should be, for example, the beautiful Hawaii, Long Beach, or some other similar very heavenly place upon earth, yet not only a village pond, some more or less only unknown damps ... somewhere in the South, or small private lake!! This all can prove to be very effectful here! If Pa is meant anew! Or some Pa! Max-Anton Reiter)
Jedes privat von Bürgern mitgeführte Handy besitzt einen inneren auch eigenen seitens einer zweiten Person von außen her ab-scannbaren Quell- oder Strichcode. Er tut das meist nur sehr verborgen. Ihr müsst den Ort schon sehr genau dafür kennen oder Platz, wo er sich dann auf ihm befindet. Bekannt ist dieser Umstand so aber bislang nur sehr wenigen! (Zumindest der ein oder andere Polizist auf Revieren, so meine zumindest einmal damit gemachte Erfahrung, ich will hier nicht von Vornherein behaupten, es seien sie alle, er kennt solche Orte oder genauen Fund-Stellen auf dem Handy sehr wohl!! Was bedeutet, er kann ihn für sich abrufen, es gelingt ihm, er kann diesen, beispielsweise während eines gerade stattfindenden, mittels der eigenen oder aber einer Dienstkamera (hier war es das private Handy, das dabei zum Einsatz kam, dieses Polizisten aus Roth am See in Schwaben), diesen abzulichten, um ihn dann anschließend dadurch für spätere Verwendungszwecke erfolgreich auf dem eigenen Handy abzuspeichern.)
“Wir müssen den ÖPNV, d.h. den öffentlichen Personen- und Nahverkehr, wieder in Zukunft sehr viel mehr auch bei uns in Deutschland fördern”. (eine sehr häufige Politikeraussage) *Po im (männl.) Pfau; en (Sp.) : im
GBV (Hannoveraner Nahverkehrsgesellschaft) : Gay + der erneute Bi- + Pfau

Over one quiet summer, Damen becomes enamoured with his son’s boyfriend.
Status: In Progress, Rated: E, Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Words: 29,249, Chapters: 5/9
so, I was very hesitant before starting to read this one… it has a complicated theme, as it’s about a huge age gap and cheating (we can’t exactly fool ourselves into thinking it wouldn’t happen, because we know our kings belong together in whatever universe, but still…) although we can be super sure of things that weren’t published yet, right?
I only have to say that I’ve fallen in love with Laurent once again 🙄 no news around here… and that even if Damen is complicated, he’s still so dear to me in this au 🥺
I was so obsessed with this fic that I actually think it did me some good when it stopped being published for some time. Anyway, just sending my love to @goldencuffs​ and wishing all the best! Hope you’re feeling better soon!
You guys should definitely give it a shot!

Part III
Part I - Part II
Theomedes sat at the head of the table, then Kastor at his right and Damen at his left. Jokaste sat beside Kastor; Laurent sat, awkwardly – undressed, he thought – beside Damen and there was another chair at the other end of the table that once, Laurent assumed, had belonged to Egeria.  
He missed her.  
She was the one to give him the stable position when he arrived at the ranch, back when he was thirteen and running. She had been kind and they got along well. Something about her (the way she spoke to him, her hand mussing his hair when they sat together at that white fence, her soft laughter that sounded much like Damen’s) made him miss his mother a great deal. It made him miss his mother even more once Egeria was gone.  
Upon Laurent’s arrival, there was a number of reactions in each face of those in the room; Theomedes appeared to be deeply confused if not offended, Kastor mimed Theomedes’ expression and added a little more shock to it. Jokaste’s eyes went dark before she educated them back to barely-concealed outrage. The housekeepers were communicating among themselves through meaningful glances and twisting brows that Laurent couldn’t decipher just now.  
To be honest, that’s not what Laurent had expected. He had guessed something more subtle – light annoyance covered by cold politeness. Maybe even a little humor because it was so funny that Damen fucked the stable boy and now brought him to eat on the table with the grown-ups and the civilized people.  
With a side-glance, Laurent attested that Damen himself wasn’t all free of tension so he began to worry too. Maybe it was a mistake to assume that being the stable-boy wasn’t too low of a rank to be Damen’s most recent conquer. Maybe they were more disgusted than he had assumed they would be.  
If that was the case, no one said a word. At first.  
Theomedes was the one to break the silence, asking Damen about his job. Damen was more than happy to carry the conversation and tell his father how he was liking to be an associate, how well he was blending in the firm, how his boss seemed to like his work and his style and that he was told that if he kept doing his job right, he would be handed a pro-bono that he would handle by himself.  
When Jokaste blurted out that Laurent’s presence was not expected nor it was welcomed and he should probably leave, Laurent wasn’t surprised, but he wasn’t free of feeling hurt either. It escalated quickly with Kastor backing up what Jokaste said and Theomedes backing up Kastor.
Laurent doesn’t even know at what point Damen’s hand found his under the table. The conversation soon became Damen’s relatives question Damen’s decision of bringing Laurent to the table and Damen stubbornly talking back at them.  
It went on for a while. Laurent didn’t want to hear so he excused himself, but Damen pinned him  down with the weight of his hand.  
Back when Laurent was about ten, eventually, he saw himself in a position like he was now. His brother, Auguste, was twelve years older than him, which was a lot and it felt like a lot – to Laurent, sometimes, it was like Auguste was his dad. And his real dad, Aleron, was more like an annoying relative who didn’t like Laurent very much.  
There were family dinners and an eventual lunchtimes or breakfasts in which Aleron would pic on Laurent for the usual reasons – staying inside too much for instance, not getting along, neither quite trying to, with the neighbors' kids, the teacher that complained he was too quiet and didn’t like to interact – and Auguste would fiercely defend Laurent’s right to be his own person and do what he liked.  
Laurent had always adored Auguste. They were the best of friends. Nothing could ever have torn them apart. Until something did.  
“This is not acceptable behavior, Damianos,” Theomedes’ livid words brought Laurent back to the current moment “This is not something to say and specially in front of him.”
“And kicking my guest out of my home is entirely acceptable?” Damen said equally angered.  
“He’s not your guest. He’s your fuckboy of the week. This is our family’s -” Kastor was interrupted by the raise of Damen’s voice then.  
“This is my house, left for me by my mother who has now passed away. You are my brother, she is the gold digger I allow to live under my roof and neither of you get a say on who I may or may not invite to my table whenever I please,” the room feel into silence “Are we clear?”  
Theomedes’ look was stern, annoyed, offended. “This is no way to speak to your family, Damianos -”
“Are we clear?” Damen repeated.  
No one said anything after that. Laurent included. His stomach sank so low he didn’t think he could eat, but he had to now, even if just to help Damen make a point. Laurent used to do that for Auguste too, when Auguste won the arguments against Aleron.  
Maybe it was a power game that had been going on and Damen wanted to make sure he had established his advantage. He wasn’t lying – the lands were his and his alone, left for him by Egeria. Most of their wealth was Damianos’ since Egeria was the rich one when she married Theomedes out of convenience – it was a wise arrangement.  
Theomedes came from a renowned family, the deAkielos name was well known, but they didn’t have half the power the Vacileus family had. Her family was loathed, they had successful business all over Joined Kingdoms but specially around Old Akielos; the Vacileus’ descended from royalty.  
Most of everything they had was passed off to Damen – with the exception of the properties in Ios, which were also very rentable, so it wasn’t like the others were poor. Damen was the richest and most powerful man in the room though.
It was a dizzying realization.  
When Auguste was the one to make his point stand, Laurent felt safe – much like he was feeling now. A dangerous feeling, since Damen would discard him soon, but he felt it all the same.
At some point in the dead silence of the room, Damen leaned in to whisper an apology by Laurent’s ear. It startled him.  
When it was all over, Laurent quietly made his way back to where he belonged.

single parent aus always comes for my entire ass. Damen as the single dad, a sweet baby girl who shares his skin tone and dark curls and chocolate eyes. Damen treats her like the princess she is. He does tea parties with her and dress up games and he even lets her style his hair and “do his makeup.” He loves his princess so much!!!
The first day of Kindergarten is as hard for the parents as it is for the kids. Damen kisses his baby girl on the forehead and makes sure she has her lunchbox, hoping she can’t see the tears that sparkle in his eyes. His daughter, meanwhile, is a bundle of nerves. She’s never been away from her papa for so long and she doesn’t want to leave him!!!
But fortunately the first-day tears don’t last long, as Mr. DeVere, her teacher, shows her a neat little magic trick and suddenly Mr. DeVere is all that matters. Papa who?
Laurent, of course, is enamored with her right away. He’s a wonderful Kindergarten teacher, much to the disbelief of everyone who knows him outside of a school environment. He’s patient with the kids, and fair, and he doesn’t talk down to them. He treats them like tiny adults and they love him.
so when parent teacher conferences come around, he’s got nothing but positive things to say. Which is good because when faced with the handsome man who is this little girl’s father, he somewhat loses all of his focus.

dad damen au part seven
He gets his chance just a few days later.
A part of him was worried—so, so worried—that Laurent would stop coming into Paper Trails. That’s not the case, thankfully.
Damen’s mind is elsewhere; he hasn’t even opened his document to start writing. All he’s been doing is scrolling through the news, skimming over headlines.
He’s sitting in the café today, right under the window. That’s probably what’s distracting him the most, actually. He keeps looking out of it, watching the packed streets, the skyscrapers, and the sky.
It’s rare for Ios summers to be rainy. But, today, the clouds are grey, hanging low and angry. The rain provides little relief though; the air is still torrid and thick.
Laurent’s hair is wet when he enters the café. Wet, his hair is darker, curling over his forehead and by his ears. Damen has the oddest urge to brush it back.
Read the rest on AO3 :)

Back in 2019 when I first came back to writing fic after a couple years break, I made a list with all the fics I’d written that year, so I figured I’d make one for my 2020 fics too! While in other aspects 2020 wasn’t a great year, I do think I did pretty well writing-wise. I wrote eight fics, as well as some smaller ficlets that I only posted here on my tumblr. All of them were Captive Prince fics like last year, because I still can’t let these books or its characters go. I really love all of the fics I wrote, and the response to them was great as well. I really want to thank everyone who left me kudos or comments on AO3, or liked, replied, or reblogged my posts here on tumblr. It always makes me so happy when someone finds a way to let me know that they enjoyed my writing, so thank you! 💖 Below, I’ve listed all of the fics with links to AO3 and/or tumblr. I’ve included summary, rating, word count, and the most important tags. If you wanna know more about them, you can find it in the tags or author’s notes on AO3, or you can send me a message.
Our Unconventional Courtship [AO3] [Tumblr: One, Two, Three]
Rating: G, Word Count: 2089, Tags: Prank War AU
When Damen finds Auguste in the grocery store, he decides that this is the perfect moment to get back at him for the prank he pulled on Damen. Everything goes exactly as Damen planned. Everything except for the fact that the person whose shoes are now covered in raw eggs wasn’t Auguste at all, and that instead Damen now finds himself staring at the most beautiful man he has ever seen. He doesn’t know yet that the man turns out to be Auguste’s little brother Laurent, nor that this will be the beginning of a prank war between them that partially serves to disguise their flirting.
The Truth About Our Marriage [AO3] [Tumblr]
Rating: Not Rated, Word Count: 733, Tags: Oversharing College Professors AU
It was busy at the faculty drinks, much more so than usually. But the news was that Professor Damen might be bringing his sweetheart of a husband with him if they were able to find a babysitter to watch their two children, and Professor Laurent was bringing his husband who he once spent seven hours in bed with.
When their students finally meet their respective husbands, they're in for a surprise.
what never was and never will be [AO3]
Rating: Teen, Word Count: 2433, Tags: Soulmate AU, Warnings: Major Character Death, References to Canon-Typical Themes
As Damianos is whipped in front of him, Laurent can feel his own chest start to bruise. There seems to be some heavy object pressing against it from the inside that is trying but failing to reach out to Damianos. At the same time, neverwere memories are flashing in front of his eyes, showing him a fated life involving both Laurent and Damianos that will no longer come to pass.
Both of these things should not be possible. Not unless Damianos was dying in front of him. More importantly, it would require Damianos to be Laurent’s soulmate.
The Downsides of Having a Teenage Baby Brother [AO3] [Tumblr: One, Two]
Rating: Teen, Word Count: 1841, Tags: Modern AU, Sex Ed
When Auguste first learned that Laurent had found himself a boyfriend, he was overjoyed. But his joy had been quick to turn to dread the moment he realized that teenagers possessed more hormones than sense.
//
Kastor hadn’t come home for the weekend to deal with Damen and his new boyfriend, but he also didn’t want both of their moms and their dad to be disappointed in him.
Of Soulmates, Books, and Spilled Guacamole [AO3]
Rating: Teen, Word Count: 4131, Tags: Modern AU, Soulmate AU
“You are my soulmate?”
Damen had read those very same words countless of times on his arm and imagined countless of ways they might be said, but he had never thought they would be paired with such disdain.
Or, The first time Damen and Laurent talk is when Damen is over at Auguste’s to watch the game with their friends. Auguste had specifically told them all to stay away from Laurent, who hated drunk people, but Damen just bumped into him in the kitchen, fell on top of him, and spilled all of the guacamole he’d been holding onto both of them as well as the book Laurent had been carrying.
Your Breath in My Lungs [AO3] [Tumblr]
Rating: Not Rated, Word Count: 1073, Tags: Post-Canon
Damen has a nightmare while he is still recovering from his wound, and wakes up with a panic attack. Laurent helps him through it.
Fascinating Reports [AO3]
Rating: Explicit, Word Count: 1356, Tags: PWP
Damen pressed a kiss against the skin right behind Laurent’s ear. “We could do something a lot more interesting than reading reports.” He pulled Laurent’s earlobe into his mouth, softly worried it between his teeth.
“You sound very sure of yourself, but I must say I have my doubts. These reports are very riveting, and I’m not certain your cock would compare well.”
Damen huffed out a breath. “Well,” he said, “if you come with me, I could prove to you that it does.”
Or, Damen tries his best to get Laurent’s attention, while Laurent is ignoring him in favor of some very fascinating reports.
Not Like the Other Blonds [AO3]
Rating: G, Word Count: 1335, Tags: Modern AU, Nurse!Auguste
If Damen ever found out, he would never let Nikandros live it down that he had fallen in love with a blond. Not after Nikandros had complained about Damen’s type for as long as they’d known each other. However, Auguste was nothing like the blonds Damen always fell in love with. Auguste was funny. Auguste was sensible. Auguste was not a bitch. And Auguste had already met the love of his life.
Ficlets
I also wrote some short ficlets here on tumblr that I haven’t cross posted to AO3. You can find those in my tag #ficlet or in my tag #my writing

Hello, Do you have any fic recommendations that are similar to the one you recently posted? The “that’s what courting is for” one! It was adorable!
Yep! Here are all the adorable kid fics I can think of:
Tumblr ficlets
Little Damen and Laurent being awkwardly in love. Damen gets jealous, his dad has some good advice, and Auguste is a good big brother (Part one/ part two)
The Smaurent/Damini Engagement AU (Part one/ part two/ part three)
Six year old Laurent visits Akielos and plays with eleven year old Damen
Little Laurent ends up with Damen in the Akielon camp during Marlas + Auguste trying to get him back
Ao3 fics
Milk by barbitone (14 year old Auguste and Berenger sneak out of the palace. Toddler Laurent insists on coming along)
Changes in Routine by Just_Another_Day (Anyone who thinks four year old Laurent can’t read is wrong. “Anyone” includes Auguste)
Chasing the Light by dragonmage27 (Auguste and Laurent grow up as the two golden princes of modern day Vere)
Okton by mfingenius (Laurent competes in the okton, even though he’s too young for it)

Okay why are people scared to write Laurent/Regent? I'm curious about it also.
well...anything involving the regent in a “ship” stance is going to have to be writing about pedophilia and, even though it’s an imperative part of laurent as a character and of the books as a whole, people are scared/hesitant/disgusted to explore that aspect (even if they’ll read about it)
i think something that scares people the most is that writing laurent/regent, imo, is that, at some point, it wasn’t “nonconsensual” to laurent. that’s not me saying it wasn’t nonconsensual, please do not come into my askbox screaming about it, i’m very aware, but in that. when you’re 13 and traumatized by the loss of your entire family, someone “”loving”” you is something you’re going to crave. so writing laurent/regent in canon beginnings (or even aus where the same general ‘laurent loses mom, dad, and auguste and is taken care of by uncle’) involves an almost lolita-like writing of it. 
there’s also the ‘fiction can’t talk about bad things or it’s romanticizing it’ issue which is just -- horribly frustrating to continue to see. i mean, in the capri fandom people have called others pedophilic for reading/writing laurent/regent (insanity i tell you) and like :)) it’s in the book. so it’s a totally valid thing to explore.
idk. coming from spn where, for the most part, dark aspects are very much explored on a regular basis (the trauma of sam and dean’s childhoods, the covert incest john created with dean, sam’s boykingness, dean’s implied ways of getting money for him and sam to eat, everything with lucifer, general loss of body autonomy, etc.) being in capri is interesting. but the regent is a very under-explored character in turn. because he is a lot more than laurent’s creepy uncle. the man arranged for the murder of his own brother, the man -- no doubt -- had a plan to get rid of auguste before damen inevitably killed him. the man had a plan to eventually get rid of laurent and i often wonder how soon he started thinking of that plan. the man beheaded a 14yo and sent his head in a bag as a warning. the man -- possibly, as some fan theories have said -- poisoned the queen of vere. the man somehow had a hand in almost completely destroying akielos and laurent seemed quite unaware until it was right in his face via damen. and! from what we know, he’s incredibly smart. like. incredibly. so yeah, idk. that’s my rambling of the day.

Maribat AU
so what if Mari's class goes to Gotham right after spring break and Mari went to Gotham for spring break and then stayed for the class trip. before the rest of the class arrive there is a joker attack. Mari knows ladybug cant be seen in Gotham so she lets the batfam take care of it and helps get the civilians to safety. Damen is at the very edge of the laughing gas so he doesn't get much of it in his system,( it would be like regular laughing gas from a dentist). and Mari is trying to get him to safety but he is not helping and keeps saying “your pretty.” etc. when he is finally safe Mari gives him her number so he can call her if he gets into any trouble. the next morning Damian wakes up with the number of some girl named Marinette and doesn't remember a thing. he calls this Marinette and they talk she tells him what happened and he quickly realizes she doesn't know who he is. the become friends Daman invites Mari to his house and she still doesn't know who he is she meets his brothers and Alfred but not his dad.  when the class arrives they tore Wayne enterprises. Marinette sees Dick please include this scene I saw in another AU I thought was hilarious “my name is Richerd Grason and I will be your tour guide” he said. “DICK!” Marinette yelled surprised to see him leading the tore. “Marinette!” the teacher exclaimed, “ I'm so sorry Mr. Grayson Marinette shouldn’t have insulted you like that.” “oh its quite alright Nette was just using my nickname.” the class is confused as to how Marinette knows the tore guide but they dismiss it as the tore continues. then they get to the CEO’s office and see Tim and bruse drinking coffee and going over some papers. Tim greats Marinette and the classic even more confused when daman and Jason walk in great Marinette and then start talking to Bruce about how band the cafeteria food is. at lunch, the batboys sit with and talk to Marinette about school. at some point, Lila lies about knowing the Wayns and gets called out. lots of class salt.
if you do this prompt please tag me I would write it but my knowledge of the batt boys is only from maribat fics.
