Summary
Collab fic, in which we explore the fact that Ryan Lochte = Adonis, and what would happen were he to exist in his natural universe as such. Featuring all of the classic elements of Greek literature: tragedy; comedy; nudity; sex; violence; drinking; debauchery; interfering mothers and some stuff that perhaps doesn't make sense.
Essentially, crack in the extreme. A play in too many acts to count.

Summary
A Roman general acquires a new sex slave. A novel-length m/m historical fiction with gobs of sex, plot twists, angst, humor and intrigue. While nearly all details are historically accurate and the story is tied to major historical events and prevailing cultural attitudes during the reign of the Emperor Trajan, the tale is entirely fictional and the dialogue is deliberately modern.
This story is also posted with a map, some illustrations and pictures, at: http://dominusfiction.livejournal.com

Summary
"Euphrasia ate like someone who never had enough food—Valyanos recognized it, with an inward shudder, from his time in the mines, before the arena and his wooden sword—methodically scooping soup into her mouth with the bread and cleaning the bowl with the crust until not a single chickpea remained, nibbling the apple down to the barest core."
Valjean and Cosette in Roman Gaul, 38 B.C.E.

Summary
Written for the F/F Comment Ficathon and the prompt: MCU or comicsverse, Sif/ OFC or historical personage. Together, they made legends.
Sif fights beside the warrior queen Boudicca. Any historical inaccuracies are mine, the images came together for me.

Summary
I started spinning out Parallel worlds into Parallex Tales because no one would write the story I wanted to read. Of course I have realized that no one could write the story I wanted, no one could satisfy my infernally itchy curiosity bump. I was the one with the questions and bless the internet, I could find some answers.
Herewith is my own red pencil version of Godric's story, why he has those tattoos, what made him so wild as a young vampire, and what ultimately saved his soul.

Summary
A collection of ficlets and snippets inspired by Tumblr and #xmentales chat.
So far: Charles is a cat or a Renaissance-era muse or a professor or an imprisoned high-level telepath or a young man of the senatorial class in Rome or an Oceanid. Meanwhile, Erik is sick or a talented but struggling painter or a graduate student or a spy searching for his missing telepath or a former gladiator-turned-slave or a pirate. Also they are both seahorses. Or fae. Or gods. Or platypuses. Or genetically-modified fruit. Or space travelers. Or on a date. And there's one with Wesley Gibson and Brandon Sullivan. And one with Wesley again, but also Max, Simon, and Brian. And a couple of A/O snippets, one on a boat and one in a bedroom.

Summary
“It’s hard, not being allowed to held by your Mother or comforted by a friend, or,” Merlin seems to take a shallow breath for a moment, “caressed by a lover.” Arthur’s heart jolts at the words and he looks away as a rosy blush reaches Merlin’s pale cheeks.
