  1. Summary

    A collection of drabbles for Miraculous Ladybug, largely written for Tumblr. They're short and edge on fluff. Topic matter is all over the place, but a good many of them are the Love Square.

    Summary

    Kabru decides that Laios needs an heir to secure his line of succession and invites ten ladies to get to know the king. Meanwhile Kabru and Laios maintain their friendship through a game. Kabru POV. Canon compliant unless I forgot something.

     

    It had been three years since Laios had taken the throne, and people were beginning to talk. He needed a line of succession. The sooner, the better. As the first true king in a thousand years, it seemed important that the new system be a traditional one. One that didn't push boundaries and tensions between factions that were already strained. The simplest solution was biological, and for that, Laios needed a bride. Kabru had been the one to argue all of these facts.

    Summary

    Laios looked Kabru up and down. He didn’t say anything, so Kabru took it upon himself. “I can buy you a drink to make it up to you.”

    Laios leaned into him. The tavern was loud, but not so loud that that was necessary to have a conversation, but—

    “Are you trying to have sex with me?"

    Summary

    Kabru set his teeth. "Do you sleep with anyone who just asks? You're terribly easy to set up for a diplomatic incident." He'd meant it as a rhetorical jab, not too subtle for Laios to miss or too cruel to throw in his face, but as Laios drew breath in to answer he saw, terribly: oh, yes. Laios did sleep with anyone who just asked.

    Written for the Dungeon Meshi kink meme prompt: "5 times Laios slept with people in his own + Kabru's team, and 1 time he slept with Kabru himself, who was seething with lust over Laios's slutty behavior". I have indicated auxiliary ships as character tags, not relationships tags.

    Summary

    “You know,” Kabru forced out through mead-sweet lips, “I thought about killing you?”
    “I know,” said Laios.
    “How would you do it?”

    Kabru drunkenly mentions his past violent thoughts about Laios. Laios is very into it.

    Summary

    Laios is wrapped up in about three different blankets, making for a thick, mismatched caterpillar in the center of the bed. He can only make out his eyes and up from the opening of the wrap-up, but even despite the dimmer light due to unopened curtains, Kabru can see how red and sweaty his forehead is. A fever. But, given the sweet, cloying scent even he can smell, it’s not just that.

    A few days. He’d accounted for a few days early. A few weeks early is a completely separate matter.

    Or, in which an unexpected and unsafe heat leads to an outcome Kabru hadn't seen coming.
