Hope & Smith

by shofics

Zolf is the owner of Hope & Smith café and bakery. Wilde is a journalist. And they’re… friends? Yeah. Friends. And one night, Wilde stumbles into the café just before closing time in desperate need of just that—a friend—and sets off a chain of events that will change both his and Zolf’s lives, as well as the lives of those around them, forever. Featuring disabilities both visible and invisible, the many different forms of magic and love, and the mortifying (but necessary) ordeal of being known.

At Your Convenience

by HoloXam

While [Zolf] waits for the eggs to cook, he leans back against Wilde. “Food in a minute,” he says. Wilde hums and turns his head, so his cheek now rests against Zolf's scalp. “This is probably why people think we're a couple,” Wilde says, arms snaking their way around Zolf's neck. “They—” Zolf swallows. “People know about this part?” “Maybe,” Wilde says. In which Zolf cooks and Wilde tries to save face with a pun.

but i got love!!

by shofics

After the war ends, Zolf & Wilde stay together. They don’t need to have a word for why. Right?...Right?Otherwise known as: two asexuals with varying opinions on sex and romance navigate a relationship they were too stubborn and awkward to understand when it started. ———“I followed you all the way around the gods damned globe!” Zolf bursts out. “We fought literal monsters together for almost two years! I pulled your bleedin’ *corpse* off a bit of plankin’ and we had a lovely chat in the astral plane about your worth as a sentient being!” “So we trauma-bonded, good for us! Baring our souls to one another-“ Wilde makes an ungainly grab for the pen, and Zolf holds it out of his reach. “It’s like a bloody Campbell novel.” Zolf gives Wilde a helpless look. “And you don’t, you don’t even care if I kiss you?”

I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam

by HistoriaGloria

'He steps forward, awkward and uncomfortable, but there. He places his hand on Oscar’s shoulder and lets the man turn his body into Zolf’s chest.And Wilde weeps. It’s like a dam has broken, his tears coming heavy and fast, the sobs tearing themselves from his chest as he clings to Zolf’s shirt with trembling fingertips.' Five times Zolf sees Oscar cry and one time that is reversed.

The Important Questions

by Angel Ascending (angel_in_ink)

“I have questions,” Wilde says, because of course he does. Who wouldn’t? “Go on.” Zolf hopes he doesn’t sound as tired as he feels. The man has a right to his answers, even if all Zolf wants to do is sleep, now that the worst of things is over.

my luck is a lost key

by SyntheticRevenge

Zolf comes in rain-soaked from yet another dead end and, now that he can focus properly without getting drenched, reaches out to his new, nameless god for a jolt of that not-quite-hope that’s been keeping him going. It washes over him, warm and bright, for just a moment, and he finds himself completely dry, which is nice. Spares him having to wring out his beard and rebraid the bits that get mucked up. He wanders the inn looking for Wilde before he remembers Wilde won’t have any interest in seeing him. (Zolf quarantines, Wilde copes, and definitely neither of them has feelings for the other)

some kind of miracle

by escherzo

“Did you find what you were looking for?” Wilde asks finally, into the stillness of the night, when he had been quiet so long Zolf half-thought he was already asleep. “Yeah,” Zolf says, finding that his voice comes out hoarse. “I think so.”

some kind of miraculous bind

by shofics

After it all, Zolf and Wilde get married. It takes them a minute to get there, though. // ”Doesn’t it feel good to imagine leaving all those infuriating, self-centred bastards in their horrible fancy clothes just dripping? Cold water in their trousers, no more smug looks-“ he stops. “Zolf, I think I finally understand you.” Zolf snorts. “Glad to hear you’ve made it.” “You know me darling, fashionably late or nothing,” Wilde says, eyes twinkling. “If I remember correctly we had to take a detour through the Northern Wastes, forgive me if I’m arriving a bit behind schedule.” Darling. He’s been doing that a lot recently. Zolf hasn’t commented on it, but not because he doesn’t want to.

All My Choices Lead Me To You

by Angel Ascending (angel_in_ink)

“Just— just hang on,” Zolf says, dragging his gaze over to Wilde’s face, to the too pale skin, the flecks of blood on his lips that are being washed away by the rain, to his eyes, trained on Zolf and glassy with pain. “Oscar—“ And isn’t it funny how Zolf rarely calls the man by his first name instead of his surname, not that he minds it. “Oscar, just hang on, I— you’re— you’re going to be….” Fine, is what Zolf should say, and what he can’t say. Wilde has at least one punctured lung from the sound of it, and those damn tridents do as nearly much damage going out as going in. Without a spell or a potion on hand to heal him immediately, there’s nothing Zolf can do. No. Not nothing.

The Right Questions

by newsbypostcard

What Zolf can do—something in this world he knows how to give—is to provide Wilde the thing he’d asked for again and again: for Zolf to sit with him a minute, and have a drink. * Post RQG177: Some conversations are best rehashed in the world of the living. The problem is starting them.

Promises (in a broken world)

by oscarlovesthesea

Quarantine sucks, especially when you find yourself stuck with your team-mates who want to know what you have been up to in the past eighteen months. Zolf is tired, and not ready to answer certain questions.
