Summary
Finally, Eliot says, “Quentin.” He turns to look him in the eye, his face settling into a casual smile. “We’re friends, right? We know each other pretty well?”
“Ye-es?” Quentin says.
“And you’re a brave boy,” Eliot says. “Open to delving into the unknown. Looking for your next great adventure.”
“I, uh.” That isn’t how Quentin would normally describe himself, but somehow — with Eliot’s hazel eyes shining at him, the full force of his warm, encouraging energy focused on Quentin’s face — he sits up a little straighter, and says, “Sure, I guess.”
“Great,” Eliot says brightly, “so how would you like to pretend we’re dating for a week so we can get into the most secretive magical couples’ party of the modern era?”

time cast a spell on you (but you won't forget me) by peacefrog for miscreants

Summary
Quentin shook out the tension in his hands. He didn’t understand why it wasn’t getting any easier. For days on end he’d been trying to perfect the illumination spell the rest of his fellow First Years had nailed in a matter of hours. But no matter how he tried, Quentin couldn’t seem to make anything more than a spark.
He didn’t know what was worse: that his discipline was apparently shit at magic, or that he’d been placed in the Physical Kids’ Cottage with his ex-whatever-the-hell-they’d-been-in-undergrad because the administration didn’t know what else to do with him. He couldn’t do shit about the latter, but he figured he could at least try and get the basics of magic down before Dean Fogg realized what a grave mistake he’d made in allowing Quentin into Brakebills to begin with.
OR
The one where Quentin and Eliot are exes who had an intense D/s relationship in undergrad.

The Case of the Murdered Magician by LeakingLlama, salem_student
Fandoms: The Magicians (TV), Sherlock (TV)
18 Feb 2021
Tags
Summary
Magic is not unlikely to murder you. Sherlock Holmes is not unlikely to solve it when it does.
Someone has been killed on the grounds of Brakebills University, which is not entirely uncommon occurrence. So why would Dean Fogg summon the World's Only Consulting Detective to crack the case? Not everything is as it seems in the Magical world - but could this be more mundane than expected? How will Sherlock be able to function in a world that does not follow his rules?
And side plot...love story? Hey, with all that adrenaline pumping, smut is bound to happen.

Summary
But he was here, and all the people he loved were also here, and he had his dream job – he had shown the people who didn’t believe in him that he could do it. He had proven every single goddamn one of them wrong. And what was even better was that he was sharing his success with the three people most important to him.
or;
Six years later, and Eliot and Quentin hit another milestone in their relationship.

Summary
“Bitch, we are your campus tour,” Margo announces with finality. For a second Quentin's hackles go up, but then – that's not really an insult when another omega says it, right? It seems like in – movies or whatever, omega friends call each other that all the time. Quentin wouldn't know, he's never had an omega friend, and the idea that Margo, with her perfect hair and her fancy eye makeup and her swaying stride in thigh-high boots, could even theoretically be his first kind of beggars belief. It's not like hey, you've been accepted to the magic school you never applied to levels of improbable, but it's – like, whatever's right below that, basically.

Summary
Eliot is going to drive Quentin completely insane. If he hasn’t already. Things between them recently have been… escalating. At least, that’s what it seems like. And while it’s entirely possible Quentin’s imagining it, if he has to go one more night watching Eliot be charming and gorgeous and just… fucking perfect, well. He might just do something crazy.

Summary
They’d been dating for two and a half months. Well—dating probably wasn’t the word. But they were definitely… something. They were definitely having sex. They hadn’t actually talked about not talking about it—mostly because they were too busy not talking about it—but Eliot was pretty sure it was a secret. Even Margo didn’t know. Eliot didn’t know why he didn’t just tell her. Maybe the idea of having a torrid secret affair was just really fucking hot.

Summary
Margo's image has barely disappeared from the phone screen before Eliot hears the scrape of the front door opening and the rustling sounds of Quentin taking off his coat and shoes. It's only a minute more before he's coming into the kitchen, standing behind Eliot and slipping his arms around his waist. "Hi, love," he says, stretching up on his tiptoes to kiss Eliot's neck and peer over his shoulder. "Mmm, are those blondies?"
And Eliot blurts out, "Would you want to go back to Fillory?"
