Summary
For many, college is a chance to restart and make yourself the person you want to be. You can rebuild yourself and start anew. That was exactly what these 8 planned to do.
AKA, I'm doing a college AU. Read it if you like angst, domestic fluff, found family, and more! I'll focus a lot on Caleb in this, but other characters have planned arcs and will get their time to shine.

Summary
“Verin, what the fuck?” Essek hisses.
Verin shrugs. “I don’t know! I think maybe I got cursed?”
“Verin,” Essek says flatly. “You have a tail instead of legs.”

Summary
For better or worse, Caleb Widogast was a witcher. He didn’t know if his affinity for magic would have made him a sorcerer in another life; he only had this one. His former masters had taught him to channel his gifts towards one thing and one thing only, and he had spent the better part of his life trying to unlearn that lesson, trying to be a protector instead of a murderer—and sometimes being a protector only meant he got to choose who would live and who would die.
Sometimes it was a hard choice. Other times, however, it was very easy.🟍
Or: a Shadowgast Witcher AU in three parts, with art by @Kurocyou.

Summary
Deirta manufactures an image of domestic peace—her youngest child feigning sleep in her arms as she puts a book away—before the mob bursts into the library. Its circuitous, winding bookshelves buy her enough time for one last spell to modify Essek’s memory, sealing away his recollections of den Thelyss, of Verin and Taldia, of herself.
Or: Verin is spirited out of Rosohna, leaving his younger brother behind, right before the Bright Queen orders den Thelyss to be razed to the ground. When Verin returns, he discovers that there is no one in Rosohna who bears the name Essek den Thelyss. There is only Essek den Kryn.

Summary
When Caleb meets the Mighty Nein, the empire and dynasty are still at war. The Mighty Nein at that time known as The Chaos Crew ( Jester, Fjord, Caduceus , Molly, Beau, Yasha, and Nott) go to Allura seeking help ( they met her when she appeared in Yussa’s tower with a thing she borrowed). Allura asks them to meet with her in Whitestone as it is Winter’s Crest. Caleb meets the Mighty Nein at the party and decides he needs to go with them. Happens differently than canon, they haven’t gone to Xhorhaus yet and it is pre Yasha getting corrupted. After Pirate adventures there abouts about.
Can be read without reading previous fic (Feather for a Friend) but that fic is mostly context for Caleb’s Journey thus far. Aka him getting adopted by the de Rolos.

Summary
Not many scourgers find their way into the Dungeon of Penance - they are quite good at what they do, after all, and those who weren't good enough to complete their mission and escape were usually good enough to take a bite into their nightshade capsule sewn into their uniform.
it wasn't every day that the shadowhand got to interrogate a scourger.

Summary
The impossible was done even before they even had to battle the Somnoven, and Molly had been brought back to the Might Nein with a kiss. Back to friends that have changed and grown, and some even have fallen into love while he was gone. To a world that has lived without him. But could it last?
Thrust into a fight that he could not have understood, Essek had to learn what it really meant to trust and love his friends, how rich life could be if he thought of more than himself. But there is still danger lurking for him from his past choices.
Caleb finds himself between two magical purple men, who shouldn’t still be in his life, but against all odds are right by his side. Even as the adventures keep coming after Cognoza, with Trent’s defeat, lap dances at the Lavish Chateau, fights with the Cerberus Assembly, a bisexual maelstrom of sexual tension from all his past and present love interests, revelations about the Luxon and Lucien’s past.
Come for the sexual humor, stay for the angst. A reimagining of episodes 136-141 and after. Slow burn Shadowidomauk. Smut is marked with “*” in chapter titles if that's what you are here for.

Summary
Essek has barely begun to cement his place in Caleb’s life when they bring Mollymauk Tealeaf back from the dead.
Mollymauk had died while holding a relationship with Caleb; it is only a natural reaction for him to still be in love with the man upon his resurrection. For Mollymauk, he can only assume it feels like no time at all has passed. For Mollymauk, it’s as simple as breathing, to kiss the man he loves upon his return to the living.
Essek knows the desire: every morning upon waking, a groggy welcome to a new day with each other. So few and far in between still, but– ah, not the point right now.
Tactfully, he averts his eyes.

Summary
"There are only two things you need to know about working with Caleb. One, the radius of Fireball is twenty feet, and two, if you hurt him, I'm not too small to kill you." With only his faithful friend Nott by his side, the so-called "Archmage of Nowhere" has found a place in the shadows of the Zadashi underworld in the company of the Gentleman’s group of ne'er-do-wells. But when a stranger with a familiar face appears in Zadash, Caleb Widogast knows he can no longer put off facing the memories of his time on the Suckerpunch with Mollymauk Tealeaf as his captain. The grimdark Molly/Caleb pirate AU makes its way inland to the Empire’s seedy underbelly and beyond.

Summary
He kisses Essek’s jaw, then the soft spot just shy of his ear. Essek hums and tips his head to guide his lips.
“I can tell you do not want to talk about it,” Caleb mumbles. He kisses the torn lobe of Essek’s ear where Jester has healed it closed; he’ll need to pierce it again sometime if he wants to replace the earring. Caleb thinks this, and moves to kiss his neck again. “But I am going to find it hard to sleep if I don't feel you next to me tonight.”In broad daylight, Essek is attacked. His friends do not know why or by whom until it is too late.

Two decades have passed since Vecna's rise to Godhood, and Vox Machina's answering punch in the teeth. Life has returned to normal. More or less. There's a new generation to look after, now, but Tal'Dorei may just need a little more help from some of its greatest protectors, even if most of them ARE retired, relatively speaking.. because there's trouble brewing in Exandria, and the Mighty Nein cannot handle it, alone!
