Summary
“One more thing,” he says, “what’s your name, handsome?”
Tall, dark, and handsome smiles. “Kravitz,” he says, and Taako squeezes his hand once, and then releases it.
“Kravitz,” he says, “I’ll remember that.”
A modern au in which Taako meets the love of his life, and it opens more doors than he anticipated. And maybe more than he wanted, too.

Summary
"The months in Her retinue are long, and the work is hard. Her standards are high, and to satisfy them, Kravitz must be ruthless. But his conviction never falters. She is omnipotent. She is the avenging force of Justice, and Kravitz Her hand. She will keep the kingdom free, and for Kravitz to do her bidding is the greatest honor on this earth."
"Taako’s fingers curl tightly around the ropes of the Starblaster’s rigging as the ship cuts smoothly through the waves of the Sea of Souls below, his heart pounding in his chest and his eyes on the horizon...In these moments, it’s freedom that hangs sweet on his tongue and settles in his lungs, and Taako loves nothing better."
It's a pirate AU! You know the rest!

Summary
And she was there, looking at Barry like he had recently returned from the grave, a flush rising to her face, looking, for the first and only time Barry had seen her, out of her depth.
He would not shake her hand. Instead, he inclined his head in a small bow.
“Miss Taaco,” he said, “It has been some time since we last met. I trust you are well?”
“I am, Mister Bluejeans, thank you,” she replied softly.
He allowed himself one moment precisely to think how exceedingly beautiful she looked in all her finery, and then he turned away.

Summary
"He thinks, one day, that maybe what he’s been feeling is the urge to show Kravitz, really show him, how much Taako cares about him. To make it… official. That he’s not going anywhere. Because Kravitz doesn’t live off of implications like Taako does, and maybe Taako’s a little tired of making him translate.
Maybe Taako wants to do a little bit of the work for him, just once."AKA The story of how Taako and Kravitz got married alone in their kitchen on Candlenights (on purpose they swear)

Summary
It’s days like this Lucretia wishes she wasn’t even at the University at all, which is ridiculous. How many people would kill to have her spot here? How many applications were rejected in favor of hers? The planet’s best Liberal Arts University doesn’t just take anyone. They don’t give just anyone free room and board. They don’t always take eighteen year-olds even. There are people all around the world who would give anything to be where Lucretia is right now.
As if that matters.

Because, you see, Taako is cold.
