To eat is to live; to live is to eat. Antinomy isn't exactly sure if he's really alive or not. What he is sure of is that it's been a long time since his last meal.

There are hands roaming his sore body, simply holding him down or caressing him, mapping him out like something precious to behold, as another body moves frenetically above him, moaning, writhing, chasing those same constellations...

Making the most of borrowed time should be easy for someone who works in a morgue. Atemu doesn't know what to do with his second chance, but all Mahaado wants is to see his field of reeds once more. / AU, Sealshipping, Atemu x Mahaado.

Atemu has never seen clouds before. Mana cannot let that stand. This is not going to end well at all.

He always thought the world needed a reset button, he just didn't know what that really entailed. When the world collapses, when the tides change, sometimes shifts in power are ineffable. An apocalypse complete with cannibalism and a peculiar love story.

A short fluffy piece from Aknumkhanon's POV following the birth of his son and heir.
