    Summary

    A Theatre AU that almost definitely isn't going where you think it's going. The burn is slow, and the plot is twisty.

    London’s theatre scene is buzzing over acclaimed director Nathan Ajayi's ambitious upcoming production. However, the excitement is accompanied by more than a little scepticism, and the young cast and crew are feeling the pressure.

    Charlie Spring is certainly intimidated, but he has trained too hard and overcome too much to let fear or doubt hold him back from giving the best performance of his life. He’s determined to help prove the naysayers wrong, and ready to work his arse off.

    Unlike SOME people.

    Like Ben Hope. And Harry Greene.

    And that ABSOLUTE NUMPTY Nick Nelson.

    Summary

    In this Bridgerton-inspired AU, Omega Charlie Spring, or "Lord Charles Spring of Claude", is making his debut in society as an eligible beau. Reeling from the surprising success of his sister Tori's season the year prior which ended with her becoming Countess of Alessandra, Charlie's stern mother Lady Spring pressures Charlie to secure an even higher-ranked match.

    While being pushed by his mother to pursue Lord Benjamin Hope, Marquess of Kilbourne, Charlie meets a kind young scholar, Lord Nicholas Nelson. Nick attends the London season in support of his close friend and second cousin Darcy, the Viscounte of Ferngrove, but quickly falls for Charlie upon first glance. But since he is not the heir to his family's estate, he would never get the approval of Lady Spring-- but it doesn't stop him from trying.

    Summary

    “We could pretend to hate each other?” I suggest, “It might scare Tara and Darcy away from setting people up.”
    “That sounds fun,” Nick agrees, “The only problem is I have never hated someone before.”
    “Pleasure to be your first,” I respond.
    -or-
    Based off: Fake dating is fine, but fake hating is BETTER. “You’re the bane of my existence.” in public but “You’re the reason I exist” in private. Snarky jabs as flirty foreplay. Secret kisses in dark corners. “We came out of the same room flushed and undone because we were ARGUING.”

    Summary

    “Thinking back now, Charlie didn't want to make assumptions, but he hoped he was part of the reason Nick switched courses. If not for him (which seemed unlikely since they'd just met), but because this course was more interesting than what he was previously taking, an overall favour that saved Nick from a boring start to his week and awarded Charlie a friendship.

    A very important one, at that.

    Now, with an entire term, several failed study sessions traded for video games, walks at the park between their flats, tipsy talks in Charlie's bedroom after nights out, an endless thread of texts between them, and a friendship the likes of which he'd never experienced, Charlie couldn't imagine a world where Nick wasn't with him twice a week — typically more, almost daily.”

    -

    Or, a multi-chapter, alternating-POV story about Nick and Charlie finding each other at the University of Leeds, forging a friendship, falling in love, and figuring things out along the way. Story loosely inspired by the song Betty by Taylor Swift, with chapters based off lyrics while following a linear plot.

    Summary

    This was a month where Darcy was run ragged: by work, by the demands of adulthood, and by their friends. Every new obligation felt entirely overwhelming as they tried to keep up with it all and not break down in tears.

    Enter their incredible girlfriend, Tara, to help shut off their brain.

    This is very much a story of sapphic kinky smut, you have been warned.

    Summary

    Set during Vol. 4 but with the TV characters. How will everyone react to the news that Charlie has to go to the inpatient hospital? Each chapter is a different POV from the Paris Squad, Sarah Nelson, and the teachers.

    excerpt from the first chapter: "I am…okay. Sure, I had to make sure to even out my breathing and wipe the remnants of tears from my face before entering the house just so my mum didn’t see how upset I was. I am trying not to be selfish and not make this whole…situation…about me."

    Not beta read, feel free to comment on mistakes so I can fix them! Thank You

    Summary

    “I will not wear it! It’s embarrassing. What if he just laughs at me and thinks I’ve lost my mind? What if he looks at me in irritation and walks aways? What if –”

    “What if he says, ‘I like you too’ and kisses you?”

    Now that is something Nick is on board with picturing.

    “Stop smiling like that, Nick. You’re scaring me.”

    “Then stop getting my hopes up, Darcy!”

    “Just wear the t-shirt, I promise it will turn out well!”

    “No. Tara?”

    “No, don’t even try. I won’t get in the middle of another bisexual-disaster-Nick-meddling-Darcy fight.”

    A story about two oblivious idiots, a meddling friend, a t-shirt and a love confession.

    Summary

    "This will turn out so well, I swear!” Darcy giggles before they take back a step to admire their creation. “I should call it ‘bisexual disaster looking for a partner’ and add your number scribbled on the back. I bet people will be standing in front of it drooling at the exhibition next month.”

    “Lovely, Darce. You don’t sound vain at all.”

    “I’m just saying! All this working out for rugby’s really paying off, and I say that as an absolute lesbian! And adding my art to your genes, it just screams success.”

    Nick shakes his head slowly, biting back his laugh. “I only hope it will get you good grades for your course. I don’t want to find a partner over this.”

    ***
    OR:
    Darcy is a sculptor, Nick their friend and one-time model who might find a partner after all and Charlie a visitor to an art exhibition with a thing for muscles.
