    Summary

    Knight Daniel Howell is one of the most competent fighters in the empire. The emperor gives him the honor of escorting his new concubine to the capital from a smaller kingdom. His life that centers around duty and routine is turned upside down when he meets "the princess" he is going to be protecting on the way to the capital. The princess turns out to be a prince and his ocean blue eyes make it hard for Dan to remain loyal to the empire.

    (Basically my take on the princess&knight AU)

    Summary

    Deciding not to push his luck and reveal his hand too much, Dan intentionally missed the next shot. He wanted Phil intimidated. He wanted him to be forced to show his skill off a little bit more, floundering to catch up, asking himself what went wrong the same way Dan had been doing all night.

    Dan competes in pro pool tournaments, and in many circles, is considered a professional and talented player. Phil is a hustler, whose victims often don’t realize they’re being swindled until it’s too late.

    Phil swears it started as a joke. The lace in his cart says otherwise.

    Summary

    "I'm not pretending that I know what you need," Phil nuanced, "but I guess I can say that I know you pretty well—"

    Dan's laugh at the euphemism made him pause, a grin tugging at his own lips.

    "What I mean is, I imagine it as pressure, you know?" He didn't know himself. He had two degrees but pressure was part of none of them. It didn't matter. "The more you keep the valve closed, the more chances you have to explode—or, I guess, in your case, to get drunk on an entire bottle of wine and cry alone on our balcony."

    What happens when you realise you need to come out but your feelings for your best friend and roommate of ten years get in the way.
    Or, the process between writing "Basically I'm Gay" and releasing the video (plus some more).
