Define Dancing

Specter of Dismay

by Mortimer_Dead_Sea

"Not much could ground him anymore, not like Luan could. The locket sometimes could, but he often found himself staring at it as memories filled his head, not feeling fully there anymore. He wondered if that’s what it was like being a specter, always feeling floaty and far away. Although he had felt like that as a human being, too." Specter Knight thinks about Luan, and then discovers that someone is trying to take his locket.

Shovel Knight

Withdrawal

by SaltyCrackerDealer

Specter Knight begrudgingly decides to attend a party being hosted by Propeller Knight. Afterwards, Propeller continues to pester him. Specter is not quite sure of what to make of it. Perhaps there is a little more to the pompous sky pirate than what meets the eye. Or maybe, Specter is reading too much into the situation. Whatever the case may be, one thing is for certain: Specter just wants to be left alone. But the achy feeling in his chest is telling him otherwise.

DonLuan Dirty Little Sec

by ConchShell

Short oneshot that's mainly comedic but got a little real about Donovan finding out that Luan is a father. A little light on the romance portion because they're dumb and won't admit they like each other yet.I wrote this fic because I am gay and trans and I think Donovan and Luan are too, thanks for coming to my tedtalk.I am bad at titles because I think I am funny.

The Spectral Servant

by GamerQuills

An interpretation of Donovan's encounter with the Enchantress in Specter of Torment. Kinda grim and spooky-ish, so I figured I'd post it on Halloween weekend. (It may not deserve the Teen rating. *shrug*)

Dont Fear The Reaper

by Knightly_Benedict00

(Specter Knight/Donovan x Reader)You and Donovan happily adventured the Valley together, not once separating from one another and always proclaiming your love. Everything was perfect until that fateful day, the day your love Donovan and his best friend Luan disappeared into the Tower, only to never return. His disappearance broke your heart deeply and you weren't sure if you were able to continue your life without him, but you forced yourself to keep going. Months pass while in solitude and you were automatically chosen to be a servant to the king of Pridemoor's Keep. And having to always stick by his side, you were led to the dreaded Tower of Fate where you lost your love. Upon meeting the rest of the Order, you were unknowingly reunited with your love but he wasn't the same person you knew.Your relationship with Donovan never really ended, but after being apart for so long you considered if he was just an illusion, taunting you.
