    Summary

    A slow burn Illuhen story I'm writing for my friend. So sad that these two don't even have voicelines for each other :(

    This story starts all the way back when the Knights of Favonius enter Nod Krai for the first time, and my own interpretation of how Lohen and Illuga first meet. Hope you enjoy!

    Summary

    Not for the first time, Illuga thinks there must be something wrong with him. Maybe he’s been possessed by the Wild Hunt. Maybe the kuuvahki is finally getting to him; one too many mandragoras, or something like that.

    Either way, there has to be a reason. Why else would Illuga keep letting Lohen into his bed? Why else would Illuga allow Lohen to use his body again and again, leaving Illuga with bruised skin, aching bones, and a weary heart?

    ‘Friends with benefits’ is a phrase he’s heard before, and it makes sense. The life of a Lightkeeper can be cold and lonely, so it’s only natural to seek warmth and comfort from another. But Illuga never expected to find himself in such an arrangement, if what they have can even be called that. Lohen’s rough treatment offers no benefits, and they certainly aren’t friends. Illuga doesn’t even like him.

    This can’t possibly be what Flins had in mind when he suggested that Illuga take up a new hobby.

    Summary

    Illuga stared.

    Lohen had to be insane. That laugh, dripping with unrestrained joy at the carnage around him, was all Illuga needed to hear to realize the knight with the pretty eyes was absolutely, positively insane.

    (aka Illuga is overworked, but Mondstadt's knights have come to help and brought a crazy vice captain along with them)

    Summary

    Lohen is certain that if Illuga would only hate him enough, he could finally be left alone long enough to kill himself properly. But Illuga refuses.

    Summary

    The first time Lohen saw Illuga, there was blood everywhere.
    Wild Hunt beasts crawled from the fog like rotting wolves stitched together wrong, screaming as they charged through the ravine. Knights of Favonius archers held the ridge while the Lightkeepers fought below.

    And in the middle of it all stood Illuga.

    Geo constructs shattered beneath claw and fang while he drove his spear through a beast twice his size, dragging a wounded Lightkeeper behind him with one arm. His coat was torn, face smeared with dirt and blood, golden eyes sharp and furious.

    An alpha.

    A terrifying one.

    Lohen, who had spent years carving through monsters without fear, felt his omega instincts slam into him so hard he almost missed a kill.

    “…Oh no,” he muttered while kicking a Wild Hunt creature off a cliff.

    One of his fellow knights blinked. “What?”

    “I think I’m doomed.”

    Because from that moment onward, Lohen became obsessed.

    Not in a delicate romantic way.

    No, the Vice Captain of the ranged company approached courtship like military warfare.

    Unfortunately for him, Illuga was catastrophically oblivious

    Summary

    “You can’t trust anyone else to give you what you really want, can you? Poor, pitiful little Illuga. Papa Nikita’s baby boy, just needs someone to shove him against a tree, kick his legs apart and show him—”

    It all happens at once, a blur of movement, action without conscious thought.

    Illuga takes hold of Lohen’s wrist and twists. It’s quick and violent and effective—a question Lohen must answer in a fraction of a second: drop the knife or suffer. Drop the knife or bear witness to his own ligaments tearing.

    Lohen gasps, letting the knife slip from his hold. It buries itself upright in the dirt, and when Illuga wrenches him downward, Lohen goes to his knees beside it.

    Illuga wants to pretend he doesn’t need their secret trysts. Lohen’s not fond of pretending.

    Summary

    The puppet masters behind the Wild Hunt have been defeated, one by one. As Wild Hunt outbreaks grow fewer and farther between, Illuga loses the very reason that has kept him going day for day, year for year. As he struggles to trust and find comfort in this new era of peace, it takes more than one pair of hands to catch him as he falls.

    Summary

    “Right. So, uh, how much are you asking for this thing? This book of yours.”

    Dori leans back in, her grin widening to reveal sharp teeth. “Oh, I thought you’d never ask, Grandmaster!” she purrs, each word as sweet as honey taken straight from the comb. “Why, it’s only fifty thousand mora.”

    Varka doesn’t quite choke on his own saliva, but it’s a close thing. “Fifty what now?”

    “Oh, don’t be like that,” Dori scolds with a shake of her head. “Anyone else would be asking for much more – it’s not every day you stumble upon a book this old and this useful too! A guide to courting for, ah, individuals specific to Nod-Krai and Snezhnaya? It’s practically a trove of information, Sir Varka! Really now, it’s only because you’re my most loyal, most esteemed, most valuable customer that I can afford naming such a low price.”

    Or: Varka gets swindled into buying a Fae courting guide, written by a human for other humans. He's also forced to come to terms with his own feelings regarding a certain Lightkeeper (who might or might not be Fae). Shenanigans ensue as he attempts to follow this dubious yet somehow effective guide to the very end.

    Summary

    The knights have finally arrived on the terror-filled lands and Lohen can't stay in place. An infinite supply of strong enemies to defeat ? Sign him in he is more than ready.

    Illuga trusted many of the Old man's decisions, most of them, really. But it didn't mean he couldn't curse some very particular ones, tied to one particular knight. For non-personal reasons. Obviously.

    Summary

    Illuga once remembered Flins say that a glass of water can calm one's senses and a whole jug can rid you of your troubles. Then how about a bucket?

    Turns out the answer was water intoxication.

     

    Or, Illuga meets the Vice Captain of the Fifth Company, drinks too much water, stresses, nearly dies and punches Lohen in the face. Not exactly in that order.

    Summary

    It started with a simple tug, gravity and Illuga pinning Lohen on the floor. How it escalted to the entirety of Nod Krai thinking he and Lohen were in a "secret relationship" Illuga doesn't know. He just really hopes that Lohen doesn't kill anyone. Though he wouldn't blame him if he did.

    "What the—I'm starting to...understand him???"

    Or, everyone misunderstands, Illuga suffers, Lohen's death note needs another page and no one is helping.

    Summary

    “Is there something on your mind, Master Illuga? You seem rather… distressed.”

    “Distressed? I’m more than distressed. I’m so, ugh! He’s just, I can’t. Ah! This guy is so ughhh.” Illuga groaned again, louder and more guttural.

    “I didn’t quite catch that, Young Master.” The amused smile on Flins’ face was evident in his voice despite Illuga’s eyes being squeezed shut, the heels of his hands pressed deeply into them. “Could you repeat it? A little slower this time.”

    The younger Lightkeeper let out a long exhale. “It’s this knight. He’s just, ugh, I don’t even know how to describe him. Loud, abrasive, overenthusiastic, eccentric, rude, batshit fucking insane.”

    At the Grandmaster's suggestion, Illuga and Lohen were paired up to work together to strengthen the alliance between their factions, but Lohen was, in the mildest terms, a bit of a handful. At least Illuga had a comforting (and nosy) boyfriend who could secretly tag along on their shared patrol.

    Summary

    “Don't... don't come near me.” Flins recoils, his spine slamming against the carved bed frame with a sickening crack. Blue fire burns wild in his eyes, and the sob that tears from his throat sounds like glass splintering in the dark. To his fevered mind, Varka’s reaching hands are no longer sanctuary. They are a cage.
    Varka does not stop.His shadow engulfs the bed as he closes the distance, His eyes are dark with a feeling he has no time to voice as he pins Flins down to the mattress, his weight grounding the trembling Fae beneath him.
    “Hate me later, Kyryll,” Varka whispers, voice low and unsteady with something dangerously close to breaking.“But you’re not leaving this bed.” In the silence of the night, a bond is forged, not in trust, but in desperation and restraint.

    In the Nod-Krai, Flins was Varka’s drinking companion. In the dim, blood-stained quarters of the Knights’ headquarters, he is a secret. After the Lawrence Clan remnants tear open Flins’ uniform to feast on his essence, they leave behind a ruin of Abyssal rot and shattered dignity. Now, the line between sanctuary and control begins to blur between Varka and Flins.

    Summary

    "What do you think it is to be human?” Flins asks, slow and deliberate, fingers tracing the rim of his drink. 

    “To be human is to feel,” Illuga says, definitively. “To be human is to hurt, to bleed, to cry. And then wake up the next day and do it again. Wake up a thousand times and do it again, knowing that the pain doesn’t stop.”

    Flins’ gaze is piercing. “Why?”

    “Because if we can still feel pain, we can still feel joy.”

    Illuga thinks he knows what it means to be human. He has a few things to learn.

    Summary

    Flins is fae. The reality of that does not occur to Rerir. That is — until he has his name stolen. 

    Suddenly, he finds himself in a desperate search for knowledge — what else can this man do? And how can he turn the tables? 

    Meanwhile, Flins is feeling just as desperate — what are the bounds of this power? What did he trade for it? And why can't he remember?

    "The death which you fought so hard to defy is mine to conquer by nature." Flins purred, his eyes glowing that eerie cat-like yellow. For the first time, Rerir saw what so many others did when they set eyes upon him. "Do you fear the dark, Rerir?" He understood why so many would answer 'yes'.

    "The dark is my dominion." Rerir insisted, his mouth curled in a snarl.

    "The dark belongs to no man. One day it will swallow you whole, and spit you out." He leaned in closer, a gentle smile flickering across his face. "You'd best pray I am there, when that day comes. I don't think many others would light a lantern for you. Rerir," he continued, with the force of a name owned, "sleep."
