    Summary

    “Lots of nerdy dudes with intimacy issues keep fish tanks.”

    When Neuvillette learns how close Wriothesley came to being killed by the Primordial Sea, he finds his desire to care for the Melusines (diligently and from a safe emotional distance) has expanded to include the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide.

    It’s not that odd. Neuvillette can do his best to help this particular human thrive, just like he’s done with the Melusines. It will help him better understand humans in general, which will help him better understand his purpose.

    Surely he’s never going to have to think about it any more closely than that.

    Summary

    "It was the first time Wriothesley would meet the Chief Justice in his official capacity as Administrator of Meropide. Technically, they'd met once before—at his trial, where said Chief Justice had sentenced him as a mass murderer. So that was a promising start.
    Given the choice, Wriothesley would have preferred dealing with literally anyone else. It was absurd that there was no intermediary bureaucrat handling Meropide affairs, that everything went straight to the highest judicial authority in Fontaine. Some mid-level functionary would have been far easier to manipulate—to study their weaknesses, learn what made them tick, and carefully position himself as an indispensable ally. But no, he had to charm the one man in Fontaine supposedly immune to charm."
    ___
    This is slowburn years long exploration of paranoid traumatized manipulator Wriothesley learning to trust and then falling for Neuvillette, the journey from when he first becomes the Warden to the canon time.

    Summary

    Neuvillette looked as if he wanted to say more, unsure of where to start, but he just shook his head and made to leave. He paused as his fingers curled around the door handle.

    “Why Wriothesley?” he asked.

    Wriothesley shrugged. “It’s a name that better reflects the man I am now.”

    “And who’s that?”

     

    I’m sorry.

     

    He locked his jaw. “Someone who did what the Law couldn’t do.”

    Summary

    Wriothesley is a man with a painful past who made the most of his horrible situation, and has others' best interest in mind.

    Lumine is a woman that has dished out as much pain as she's received. She knows, deep down there's a monster. She is always ready to strike back.

    Can two people so different really get closer and support each other? Maybe not... But who can stop them from trying anyway?

    (Or, 5 times they ended encounters on an awkward note, and the one time they FINALLY managed to say everything)
