    Summary

    “How does it feel, then?”

    “How does what feel?” Isak asks, playing coy and looking up at Even underneath his eyelashes. He rarely gets to do that, be the one that’s shorter. He quite likes it.

    Even grins back at him and promptly ruins any hope Isak had had for the two of them. “Having been one of Nikolai Magnusson’s prodigy children.”

    ---
    Or the one where Isak used to play the piano like his life depended on it, back when it was the only thing that made him happy. Also the one where Isak isn’t quite alright. Not alright at all, in fact.

    Summary

    "That's bullshit. You're a genius."

    Only Isak would react like a child to the exact kind of empty praise he’s heard a thousand times over. Isak knows he’s brilliant. He doesn’t need anyone to tell him. But, Even Bech Næsheim saying it… that's a whole other thing in itself.

    -Isak and Even are roommates attending the Norwegian Academy of Music. Isak isolates himself from everything and everyone until his sleepless nights are no longer spent alone.

    Summary

    Isak and his family spend every summer at their villa in Italy.

    His mother Marianne had the garden which she held dear in her heart, and his father Terje had his studies. His sister Lea had her friends and her romance novels.

    Isak? he didn’t really know what he had, or if he’d ever get anything at all out of his life, or the many summers he'd spent wallowing in self-pity, and so far this summer was turning out to be another one of the same. He was lost, searching for something to love, something to hate, anything to make him feel like he's worth something.

    In the summer of 1983, Isak is freshly 18, emptying out his room as his father’s newest student apprentice has agreed to stay with them for the summer to aid in his father’s studies, and Isak needs to move into the adjacent room before his arrival.

    In the summer of 1983, Isak figures out what he loved, and what he hated.

    In the summer of 1983, Isak met Even.

    (a "call me by your name" inspired au!)

    Summary

    Isak is a pianist.

    It's who he is, and sometimes it feels like that's all that's left. At first, Even is nothing more than the asshole who stole his practice room--a film major with a surprising passion for music. There's something undeniable about his charm, though, and the more time they spend together the harder it is to ignore.

    Isak's a pianist, but maybe that doesn't have to be all he is.

    Summary

    Every day, Even catches a boy in a snapback who sneaks in to play the piano at the summer camp Even works at. Even's never seen him before. But if the boy's good looks hadn't already captivated him, then his phenomenal piano-playing ability certainly has. Even doesn't know much about love at first sight, but he thinks that this is pretty close.

    (Or, seven weeks of music, flirting, summer camp, and falling in love.)
