Summary
Very reluctantly, Greg is allowing Roisin to drag him along to a paint-and-sip evening at a local studio. She’s promised there’ll be wine and a bit of fun, but mostly he’s agreed just to shut her up. What does he know, after all, about art? Nothing! It’s all just making dumb marks on paper that he’s never been any good at anyway.
Greg feels spun around. Confused. “Wait, model?” Carol shoves a box of charcoal at him, and he takes it, blinking.
“A quick reminder for everyone to be respectful and mature about this. The human body – beautiful and interesting and unique is already a work of art , so let’s make art of that art. Art squared! Now…” She raps on the door, and steps back with a flourish. “Everyone give a nice polite welcome to our model for the evening – Alex!”

Summary
It all started with a tattoo on a foot. Or it started with a shared meal, or maybe a solo task, or perhaps with Josh's denial of a developing crush. Who's to say?
Alex smiled, easing some of the tension. “Great. I think we’ve reached an understanding.” He reached out a hand to cup Josh’s face, stroking his cheek in a reminiscent manner to how he’d previously touched his hand. “I’ll see you after tomorrow’s taping. I really think you will enjoy it. There’s a bit of a… special surprise for you.”
“I… look forward to it.” Josh managed to get out. Which, strangely, was true. Despite the somewhat ominous connotation to Alex’s words… he was really looking forward to whatever Alex had planned. For him.

The Cottage and the Lighthouse by Illuminescence for WhenLifeGivesYouLemons
Fandoms: Taskmaster (UK TV) RPF
11 Aug 2023
Tags
Summary
Famous author Greg Davies has his publisher breathing down his neck for a sequel, but writers block is making his life hell, so when Roisin offers her grandmother's old cottage on the tiny barren island of Maighstir-Tasg for a getaway, he accepts! It'll be just him, the curiously standoffish lighthouse keeper, and no distractions stopping him from writing. Definitely no distractions.
“You won’t be entirely isolated, Greg, pet. I told you there’s a lighthouse keeper on the island too. I only saw him in passing, but he seemed nice – maybe you could make a friend?” Roisin is doing that smile that means that she means significantly more than a friend. Then she raises her eyebrows, just in case he wasn’t picking up on her subtlety.
Edited by the incomparable WhenLifeGivesYouLemons, and will feature an original song and its lyrics in the final chapter.

Sherlock Horne & Doctor Mark Watson - The Case of the Two-Faced Taskmaster by Illuminescence
Fandoms: Taskmaster (UK TV) RPF
26 Jun 2023
Tags
Summary
Sherlock Horne and Dr. Mark Watson are consulting detectives with the London Police, but a new serial killer case snaps Horne out of his self-destructive boredom and gives them a new mystery to solve. They'll cross paths with a very large crime scene cleaner, Greg Wickstead, who Horne takes an immediate liking to. Together, with the help of Horne's near-omniscient ex-wife, Rachel Mycroft-Horne, they must identify and stop the killer known only by the name signed on the tasks they leave behind - 'Taskmaster'.
WARNING: This has lots of murder, quite a lot of crime-scene blood (I'll warn on a per chapter basis), and has background implications of human trafficking, abuse, and death. These characters are inspired by, but are not really, these people. Also it has Sherlock Horne and Rachel Mycroft-Horne amicably post-divorce. I would never ever wish any harm, emotional or otherwise, on the real humans these characters are based on. They all seem lovely, IRL. Concrit welcome.

Summary
Greg stares at the dark-rimmed glasses sitting in the metal drawer and wonders, not for the first time, what the other him thinks he leaves behind before starting each day. Wedding ring? The keys to some house out on a country lane? A phone, the background image a few kids roughhousing with some mutt of a terrier while he and a faceless partner watch on behind them, sated and merry on that precious sort of ordinary happiness? Maybe other him thinks he doesn’t leave anything behind at all.
Greg puts his phone into the locker. It doesn’t matter what other him thinks might be in the drawer. Other him doesn’t even know it’s December. Other him might not even know what December is at all.

Summary
Alex supposed it was hardly surprising that more than a few people read their relationship as "kinky". It didn't bother him, one way or the other, as long as people found it funny. Which luckily they did seem to. The only thing that troubled him about it was that sometimes the word would sort of get stuck in his head for a bit. It would bounce around his skull and kick at certain memories or fantasies and make him wonder. If, maybe. Well, maybe, he wasn't exactly normal. But, surely, he couldn't be considered "kinky".

Summary
"Let's start again, proper this time. Why don't you ask me on a date? Let's pretend we are at the beginning again."
Greg let out a sound of relief so loud it made Alex laugh.
"I thought you were breaking up with me."
"Not yet. You would have to be my boyfriend for that. Let's see how the date goes, then, maybe I will break up with you or just ghost my way out of this." -

Summary
“Alex, calm down. I didn’t see the picture. Whatever it was, you're safe, mate. You deleted it before I could see it. Relax.” He typed back quickly.
Why was he lying? Why did he save the picture? His head was dizzy now. Alex had bought the lie and seemed less stressed about it as he said good night and again said he was sorry.

falling in love is never easy by taormina

Summary
"Greg wanted to tell Alex that the kiss had been much more than a drunken experiment and that he'd genuinely wanted it, kind of, definitely, but how could he, if he didn’t even remember it happening? He wasn’t ready for any of this. He didn't even know what this was, and if he liked Alex in the same way Alex liked him. He just wanted Alex to come back to the show."
In this story, which takes place during the recording of series 14, Alex feels hurt because Greg can't remember the kiss they shared at a birthday party. Alex's mood plummets so dramatically that he ends up stepping down from the show indefinitely. Will Greg ever persuade his friend to come back? Will the show survive? And will Greg finally admit that he wants to kiss Alex as more than just an experiment?
