National Vampire’s Christmas Vacation: All Together Now by roxy_svl
Fandoms: Cirque du Freak | The Saga of Darren Shan - Darren Shan
24 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Set 3 years after Bloodline. The war is over. The clans are at peace. Darren and Darius Shan have been travelling the world as full-time members of the Cirque Du Freak ever since. Darren gets it in his head that it might be nice to get everyone (literally everyone) together for the Cirque’s annual Festivus Feast. I don’t know what Darren expected. And when everyone shows up except for the one vampire that really *should* be there, Darren doesn’t know what he expected either.
TLDR: what we have here is the lore of the Dirty Chai AU with the energy of The Vampire Files adapted by the Hallmark studio.
[If you think this sounds fun but haven’t read Bloodline, there’s a full-spoiler plot summary pinned to my tumblr to give you the backstory and context of how we all got here, link in ch1]

In Security by roxy_svl

Summary
There’s a six month time jump in the final quarter of the Bloodline epilogue during which Mika and Kurda trade Vampire Mountain for the cabin by the sea. They’ve served their time. They’ve healed apart. The dust has settled. The phoenix has risen. The clans are united. Mika and Kurda are finally free to reconnect and relearn each other in security and peace. This is life on the other side. Because after 400k words they didn’t get properly together til the second last chapter and honestly that doesn’t seem like a fair trade for all the energy and emotions we’ve collectively invested in their journey. So after all that patience and anticipation, let’s enjoy them enjoying each other with no plot strings attached.
[This isn’t a sequel; that would imply the presence of a plot. These are just the little moments of hard-won tenderness that I can finally release from my notes app now that Bloodline is finished.]

The Ver Leth Files ♚ by roxy_svl

Summary
A database of 100 certified true* facts about Mika Ver Leth. Not a story. (Sorry or you're welcome). Just a collection assorted headcanons I've been compiling in a Twitter thread over the past year. It's spiraled to the point I figured I might as well put it with the rest of whatever it is I've got going on here.

Summary
Sequel to This Is Us. Prequel to Bloodline / semicanon Vampire Mountain arc.
*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*
“Our coming-of-age has come and gone
Suddenly the summer, it's clear
I never had the courage of my convictions
As long as danger is near
And it's just around the corner, darling
'Cause it lives in me
No, I could never give you peace”
*.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.*So begins the aftermath of a moment of chaotic weakness that cumulated in a raspberry liquor-flavoured kiss and a great deal of panicked introspection. Mika and Kurda distance themselves and long for the nights when the stifling tension between them was only political.
The silver lining? That orphan human baby they found is almost old enough to go to boarding school, thus bringing this era of forced proximity to an end.
Then everything will finally go back to normal.

Summary
Jamille is the reincarnation of Malora, the girl who was once Lady Evanna's apprentice and who accompanied Larten for six years before her tragic end, sacrificing herself for the man she loved.

Summary
Severus Snape was a man who decided he wouldn’t love again. He was a man who kept his word.
He was also a man who lied to himself.

Larten Crepsley wasn’t searching for anyone. All he cared for at the moment was his assistant and his honor.But his world couldn’t always revolve around that.
Not when fate couldn’t be manipulated by Des Tiny.

Summary
In the nights to come, there will be another war. It is not an if, but rather a when. The two clans can either unite for peace, or to tear each other apart. There is no world where the two can coexist in peace. Anyone who says otherwise is not to be trusted.

Is It Insensitive For Me To Say 'Get Your Shit Together (So I Can Love You)'? by roxy_svl
Fandoms: Cirque du Freak | The Saga of Darren Shan - Darren Shan
23 Jun 2024
Tags
Summary
Straight from the abandoned WIP files of 2021; another Bloodline scene retold from Renley’s POV.
Renley’s googly heart eyes face off against their toughest opponent yet — Mika’s psychological barricade. Or is it the other way around?
***
"I have a lot of words for whoever let you think you're funny, because it sure as fuck wasn't me." Mika deadpanned. But his mouth was twitching, and Renley knew he'd won. It was all over for Mika. Any second now, he'd crack.
"Then why are you looking at me like that?" Renley replied innocently.
"Like what?"
"Oh, give it up, baby. Show me that famous smile. Come on. Fake it like you love me."
For the thinnest fraction of a second, something in Mika's eyes went dark and Renley thought he pushed his luck too far. But then he was certain he'd imagined it, because he finally got what he wanted. Mika rolled his eyes once more to keep up appearances, then his face lit up with that exasperated, enchanting smile that made Renley's heart melt.

Summary
Summer Jobs: Pardon Our Progress
⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆
Following the conclusion of Bloodline, Arrow spends a few extra days at the Smahlt-Ver Leth seaside cabin. Three short stories within a short story.
1) Kurda and Arrow bond over how absolutely fucking atrocious Mika is at any sort of handiwork. Like, he's so bad you'd swear he's doing it on purp-- wait a minute.
2) Mika and Arrow bond over, well, nothing really. When have they ever needed a point of reference?
3) Arrow faces one of his greatest fears: the ocean. (Don't laugh).

Summary
• COMPLETE
• CH 1 - 3 now rewritten more to come
• Better summary on page 1Continuation of This Is Us Inevitably. Kurda retreats into exile. The War of the Scars begins. Shattered and betrayed, Mika forces himself to be a rock for the clan in their darkest hour. Little does he know the painful truth that haunts him is incomplete. Meanwhile, Darren struggles to fill a role nothing could’ve prepared him for. Gracie finds peace and fulfillment in the world of humans - until her father’s war hits too close to home. And while Destiny watches, his own daughter makes moves to beat him at his own game. Runs parallel to books 6-9 til an intervention in the Cavern Of Retribution brings Kurda back to the place he thought he’d never set foot in again. While the two clans grasp at peace, the Vampaneze Lord siezes an opportunity to orchestrate an attack on Vampire Mountain itself - from the inside out. Alternating POVs but heavily Mika-leaning. Steve & co don't show up til the third act.
♚ ♚ ♚
As of May 2024, Act 1 rewrites will be ongoing. I spent such a long time on this story I actually learned how to write somewhere around the middle. If you’ve got time, the payout is worth it. ♡

Summary
Set almost a year post-Bloodline (spoilers if you're not caught up to ch35 sorryyyy). The world is healing. Mika, Kurda, and Gracie acquire their Christmas tree and then they decorate it. That’s it. No nefarious business. No mastermind shit. No plot twists. There’s not even a plot to twist. They're just happy.

Summary
My submission for Kokoroklongy’s 2023 Cirque Du Freak Halloween ‘Zine ♡ (if you noticed I changed the title no you didn’t)
Sire Ver Leth pays tribute to his late, great colleague in a way he knows won’t make sense to the other funeral-goers. That’s the point.
Preview:
“I’ve always wondered... why black?” Paris inquired casually one night as they sat in their thrones decompressing from a long conference, mere weeks after Mika’s investiture.
“Why not?” Mika retorted. “Everything matches. Saves time. Looks professional — not that anyone in this mountain seems to care. And I like it. Is that reason enough?”
Present-day Mika cringed at how defensive his tone had been. Just because you’re sitting beside him doesn’t make you his equal, he longed to chastise his younger self.
Paris took him in stride and responded with more patience than Mika felt he deserved — “Ah. I always assumed you weaponized your wardrobe as a subtle intimidation tactic. My mistake.”

Summary
These are a series of drabbles, I guess. It's like scenes I was planning on putting into Daughter of Destiny, but I either removed it or just decided not to include it for whatever reason.
Idk how long each will be or how often I'll update but here's some garbage. So have fun reading my brainrot because apparently I can't let go of this stupid fic.

The strings of fate are interwoven into the tapestry of destiny by Freaky123

Summary
The Cirque du Freak wasn’t a place for kids. Hell, it wasn’t a place for most adults. It was what Gannen called a string of fate. Having lived for so long, he had figured out that there were certain cities and places that had mystical undertones. These were the destinations that people ended up in- not because they wanted to, but rather because they were fated to. Paris was one, Greenland was another, and the Cirque du Freak was one of those places.
