Summary
The forest begins at the edge of the terraced farms and vineyards of Cinque Terre. They've always been there, and Alberto's never paid them any particular mind. After all, there was nothing particularly special to differentiate them from the thousands of other forests in the world, as far as he was concerned.
Then two things happen: a traveler gets stranded in Portorosso, and Alberto can't shake the feeling that someone (or something) wants him in those woods. But surely it's all in his head, because that would be ridiculous. Right?

Summary
Summer Luca is light and free and glowing, and Genova doesn’t get to see him. It makes Alberto feel a little better over the winter when he reads his letters.
Or, a little one-shot in which Alberto disregards health and safety in favor of doin' it for the 'gram.

Summary
For whatever reason, one more extraordinary thing had been allowed to happen to Alberto, even though he knew he was profoundly undeserving. There was no other explanation for how he’d somehow managed to luck into this life. As long as he did everything correctly and followed all the rules, he might be allowed to keep it.
Or: the Dadberto fic no one asked for

Summary
Luca's having a bad day. Nothing world-ending happens, but nothing seems to go right, either- until Alberto gets home.

Summary
“So,” says Wendy. “How much did the little dudes tell you about their summers here?”
“Oh, I don’t know. They told me about the friends they made, some of the things they did. Why?”
“Right.” Wendy nods. “Um. I have to leave immediately.”
Or:
Wirt decides the best thing for his family at the moment is to move. And what better place than Gravity Falls? Gravity Falls has family, friends, history, and enough secrets to drown in.
He really wishes someone would tell him what the hell is going on.

Summary
You like the life you've built for yourself in Vienna, you've worked hard for it and you've got plenty to show for it: you're rising through the ranks at a respectable clip and with god as your witness if you don't take first chair in the Opera by the time you're forty it'll only be because you've graduated to the Philharmonic instead. Music is your life's work, and you love it, love the act of pulling art out of thin air, temporary and ephemeral. But it's still work, both the dedication to the craft and the endless social acrobatics of kissing the right ass at the right time to always stay one step ahead of your lazier, less devoted colleagues, and it wears on the bones. Vienna is great, but it's not Sweden at your mother's for Christmas and it's not Italy with Alberto in summer.
Maybe it could be, though, if you gave it a chance.

Summary
"If you'll be my boat, I'll be your sea
A depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity
Ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze
I live to make you free (x2)But you can set sail to the west if you want to
And past the horizon till I can't even see you
Far from here where the beaches are wide
Just leave me your wake to remember you by."

Summary
“We should just… go. Run away.”
Luca blinks tears out of his eyes, fat and pearlescent on his cheeks under the moonlight. Alberto has his arm around him, hugging him to his side to try and offer comfort but Luca is too tightly wound for it to make any difference. This is the first friend he’s made. The first person to see him, to pull him out of his quiet and lonely life, and now Luca’s being taken away.
Alberto knocks his head against Luca’s as he sniffles, clumsily wiping at his eyes but missing big patches of green on his cheeks. Luca looks up at him with red-rimmed eyes, confused. “What...what are you saying?”
“I’m saying we should go. Like we planned, right? We’ll go to the town, get a vespa and just… just go.”
It's not a bad idea.
(A 'what if' fic, in which Alberto and Luca really do run away and find out the hard way that life can be ugly.)

Summary
...Try and try again.
"You really must come over for dinner, Massimo," says Daniella halfway through dessert whilst Luca only half-listens, too busy staring at Alberto and giggling stupidly. "It'll have to be next week, of course, after all the madness."
Luca looks up. "Madness?"
"Yes, for the crab show. " His mother pauses in pouring Massimo more wine. "We discussed this back in April. You did remember, right?"
"I… sure did," Luca says weakly. "I guess that means I'll be coming home with you guys tonight, then. And staying. For the next week. All seven days of it. Constantly."
Alberto squeezes Luca’s knee. "We have the rest of summer to hang out."
"Uh-huh," Luca says and reaches for the wine bottle. "Sure. Cool. Peachy."(or: Luca just wants an hour to bang his stupidly hot boyfriend in peace. What he gets is a cockblocking from all of Portorosso.)
