Summary
“Hey. Relax,” she breathes, the sensation tickling his neck. “You’re not gonna be weird about this, are you?” The way she pouts with her cheek pressed against his shoulder makes his heart ache. How could he ever deny her anything? That’s what he wants to say. Instead—
J3 shakes his head. “No,” he croaks out—too quick, but he can feel his cheeks go hot. Which is stupid because they’re supposed to be friends, right? J3 can be happy being friends. The relief that they’re talking again is enough. It should be enough. It’s too bad that he is the way he is—greedy, ravenous. He wants it all.
Still, he’s glad they’re talking again. If he wants it all, he’ll take that much.
It's movie night in Jace's townhome for the clones, and J3 and J4 are trying to be friends again after a messy breakup. Well. "Friends."

say that I want you to stay (but you should probably leave) by zagenta

Summary
J3 sighs loudly, pointedly, for the third time that night—in a way that finally gets J4 to tug her headphones off her ears, shut the old grimoire she’d stolen from the Aguefort library, and look over at him from across the room.
“Yes?” she asks tersely. She’s all too familiar with his sighs—catalogued each one. Caved to them more than once. Weak just like her master, no matter how far she tries to run. She stares at him, thinking, waiting. It could be all too easy to give him what he wants, but something gives her pause. Out of all his sighs, this one is strange, alien. Completely lacking in the usual melodrama that makes her roll her eyes. And smile to herself, as long as he’s not looking.
No, judging by the flush of his cheeks, the agitated way he’s twitching, the furrow of his brow that disrupts his usual implacable expression, this is something else—real desperation.
J3 has been restless ever since Jace got back with Porter. And J4 knows that the necessity of the clones is slowly dwindling, but maybe she deserves a break. Maybe J3 can take her mind off things.

Summary
“Not—” says J3, opening his mouth to protest, to say, Not here, Porter, but as their mouths press together, he already knows his resolve is crumbling. “Porter, I have to—“
“You say that every time,” growls Porter, but amid the huff of frustration, he can see Porter’s lips curl into a smile, and—gods, is he enjoying this? “Later, ‘right? Whatever he’s got you doing can wait. Tell me that this ain’t more important.”
“Gods, you’re so creepy,” says J3, relishing in the shiver that runs up his spine as he winds his arms around Porter’s neck, unnerved by how Porter seems to always know what he’s about to say. He loves it so much.
Jace gifted Porter the Jaceclones when he told Porter he was walking away from the Plan—for good this time. After months, he's finally agreed to enfold back into the Plan, but he's not taking Porter back. While he was gone, Porter developed an interesting rapport with J2. And J3's always been the body, the spare—to Porter, Jace was the saint, and J2 the precious gift, but he’s just the guy to cast Enlarge-Reduce in the Far Haven Woods, and whatever happens happens.
But now Porter and J3 can have a little fun of their own.

Summary
“You’re in love, aren’t you?”
“What?”
When The Big Guy answers, he doesn’t even bother to look in J2’s direction. J2’s been following his line of sight—observing.
It’s Jace. Figures. It’s always Jace.
Jace swears he's breaking off things for good with Porter (for real, this time), but he still has obligations, to The Plan, to The Rat Grinders, whatever else that he can't let go. As a solution, Jace gifts the jaceclones to Porter—a way to have intermediaries to do his dirty work and be a go-between so that he no longer has to see Porter ever again. However, during their break, Porter and J2 develop an interesting relationship.

Summary
“Thank you so much for this—” Jace Stardiamond is flushed and tipsy in the passenger seat of Zara’s car, the long drawn out “soooooooo” not lost to her ears. Hair eskew—Gods, he’s a mess in a way she’s never seen in her entire life. “This is literally so embarrassing—I’m sorry, I’m not normally—”
“Don’t apologize,” says Zara softly. “And believe me, I know.”
He's so perfect in a way normally gets under her skin, captivating in a way that can turn even Porter's head. Seeing him like this—it's definitely a shock. It's almost a pleasure.
Zara bails Jace out of a scrape after a night out and a recent breakup. He realizes some things about himself, and she realizes that she might actually like Jace's company after all.

Summary
He knows Porter would have laughed at him for this.
All that resistance and for what, sweetheart? He’d grab Jace’s jaw, tilt his face up—always looking up at him, no matter what. Devout to a fault. You’ll always be mine.
“You fear the world without him,” Ankarna says sadly, knowingly. She does not force him to look up. “You do not know what you will do without an anchor.”
jace is given a gift. he's not sure if he wants it.

Summary
He’s always told his students that their job as barbarians is to make their party’s lives easier. Hack, slash, and crush anything in their way. Throw yourself in front of any threat, focus your rage on the enemy and destroy it, that’s their role. The best defense is a good offense, as Coach Daybreak would say.
But right now, there’s no enemy. It’s just the two of them in their quiet, empty townhouse. Jace doesn’t need his warhammer. He needs something else.
Or: Five days Porter takes care of Jace after the resurrection, and Jace's first day back at Aguefort.

Summary
Until recently, he’s never been one to settle down. His magic has always come to him innately, never needing to be bound up in the rules of worship or study. He’s gone from bed to bed indiscriminately, happy to be a convenient hookup for any solo adventurer he met. Commitments suck, and he tries to avoid them.
Tries being the operational word. Sometimes they’re forced upon him.
Or, Jace's trust issues, the fic.
