    Summary

    There are easier people to want than Hans Capon. Henry knows this, has known it for a while now. Yet Hans keeps showing up anyway, and Henry keeps letting him, and they almost never say anything about it.

    But plague has a way of making cowards brave enough to do stupid things, and the thing about ‘almost’ is that it’s so much worse than nothing.

    Summary

    "Are you cold?" Henry asked.

    Without armor, in hose and gambeson, he was still an imposing figure: tall and broad, hands stained with dirt and blood, jaw stubbornly stiff. His bare feet were a shock of white in the dirt. He held his helm with both hands, embracing the metal into his belly. His hair was damp with sweat. There was another string of bruises on his throat, shaped like two wide thumbs.

    Hans looked away. The tunic around Henry's knee had darkened. Blood was trickling into the dirt.

    Hans kills a man, prepares for a wedding, and tries to do at least one thing right.

    (Or: five times Hans and Henry didn't share a bed, and one time they did.)

    Summary

    Then Capon clambers into bed with him, extinguishing Henry’s last flicker of hope that this was a bad joke after all.

    There’s a bit of a shuffle while Capon gets comfortable and Henry stews in the curious sensation of a warm body pressed back-to-back against his. He’s slept with girls before, and Mutt, and once, years ago, he even shared a hayloft with Matthew and Fritz… but this is different.

    This is Capon. Sir Hans Capon of Pirkstein. Henry’s lord.

    Henry and Hans share a bed at Trosky Castle. Twice. And a beast wakes in Henry, one he thought chained and abandoned to the dark long ago.

    Disturbed, newly unsure of himself, and afraid he can't be the protector his lord needs, Henry seeks aid from an unexpected quarter: Lord von Bergow's silver-tongued swordmaster.

    Set during the canon storyline; spoilers through Nebakov. Now with fanart!

    Summary

    Cast out for his sin of being born wrong, Barnaby has lived in solitude as a herbalist and hermit. His dog, a few chickens, and the occasional visitor are all the company he needs – at least that's what he always tells himself. But one day, a handsome young knight from Trosky appears on his doorstep. And this jovial Sir Bartosch seems determined to crack open the walls around Barnaby's heart.
