Hey. Have you considered Dreamer accidently wandering into the dream(s) of one of their new classmates? I think you would make it great. Just a thought.
Another thought. Corvus meets Gavin. What would that be like?
Thank you for the message Anon! I absolutely love the idea of Dreamer stumbling into the MAAM bois' dreams so here's a little piece for it (I hope I did it justice!). Also I looove dream logic so this was very fun to write.
As for Gavin and Corvus I think that would be so much fun because both of them rely on shock factor (Corvus for fun and Gavin as a defense mechanism) so it would probably spiral into a little bit of a competition that poor unsuspecting bystanders would just be caught stunned by their chaos.
This is kind of a choose your own adventure of which boi Dreamer ends up in the dream of so after this first chapter it continues with each of the bois respectively.

Dreamer was not a particularly meticulous person, however as the night wound down they’d started a new routine to help settle them into sleep. It had been one they discussed with James and their McKinley latency counsellor before the new semester started at the Academy.
Slowly unwinding their magic as they take deep breaths, they lower their consciousness to sleep, feeding little slivers of magic to gradually shape the dream in as controlled a way as possible.
They wake into the dream to the sound of birds chirping, and as they open their eyes the dream spills out from them like watercolour filling the space with life. They exhale softly as they relax and take in their surroundings. The small grotto is dimly lit with traces of sunlight trickling through the leaves of the canopy; they’re nestled comfortably in a fallen tree trunk with moss cushioning them. Dreamer sighs and stretches out, watching the various types of birds circling above.
A louder cry startles them and they turn to see a bird land on the rock beside them, igniting a spark in their magic.
Thank you for writing all you do. In particular I loved your Shaw Pack/Vamp Boys hanging out fics! I think you have their varying voices down so well.
I would love to see what you think it would be like if Gavin wound up flirting his way through the group and how various parties would react
Aww thank you so much!! Getting their voices down is my pride and joy so I'm honoured you think I'm hitting that!! :D
Also! Thank you so much for the request this was so so fun to write and my inbox is always open for these! I'm sorry that it took so long, I got hit by the fanfic writers curse this week ahxbsh.
I assumed you meant Gavin flirting with the DAMN crew but if you meant a different group please let me know and I'll do that as well ahxbshx /gen !
Regardless! Happy pride - here's some poly DAMN with Gavin being his lovely flirty self :) hope you enjoy! As always with my fics I have a song and it's here on ao3 should that be easier!
Fic below the cut!
Morning is Gavin’s favourite time to ambush Huxley. The big jock being the only one content to take life slow means Gavin can languish in sleepy morning cuddles with Huxley too sleepy to rebuff his compliments. It’s rare that Gavin can wake up before Hux, but the mornings he does are a real gift. Getting to watch his gradual rousing in the sliver of sunlight that had crept into the room with them. The slight twitch of a smile and a tightening of arms around him is Gavin’s clue that his target is finally awake.
“Good morning handsome.” He purrs with a gentle nip to his ear.
His response is a blushing groan, strong arms pulling him to the earth elemental’s chest.
He chuckles, “I don’t need to breathe hot stuff, so if you think this is what will effectively silence me you’re much mistaken.”
“You gotta give me a second to wake up dude.” Huxley pouts, eyes still stubbornly closed. “Can’t be a menace this early.”
“Mhm, and have I told you how much I adore your voice in the morning.”
“I think you’ve mentioned it a couple times, yeah.” Gavin takes great pleasure in the low and slightly hoarse rumble.
“Well-” He presses a small kiss to Huxley’s collarbone, “-it’s probably my favourite sound.”
One eye cracks open at that, “It can’t possibly be your favourite.”
“And why’s that?” Gavin’s tail flicks up like a cat, disturbing the already messy pile of bedsheets strewn on the bed. “Are you calling me a liar baby?”
“No I’m not.” He protests with a slight pout, “You just can’t say things like this so early. Not fair.”
“Who says I like playing fair?”
Huxley carefully pushes Gavin off his chest and back onto the bed so he’s hovering over him. “You do when I ask.”
Gavin grins up at him, “And you’re yet to ask just complain, if you really wanted me to shut up you’d-”
“Kiss you?” Huxley smiles amused down at the incubus, framed by sunlight and pillows, and armed with a shit eating grin. “May I?”
“Always.” Gavin breathes leaning up. Both men smile into the kiss as their lips meet, warmth radiating from both. Gavin feels himself melt at Huxley’s hand rising to cup his cheek, and in turn runs his hands up his muscled arms and around his shoulders, pulling Huxley closer.
They pull apart and just look into each other’s eyes for a moment.
“Hi.” Huxley murmurs with a goofy lovestruck expression.
“Hi there.” The incubus can’t stop a similar expression creeping onto his face.
The two laugh together, Huxley sinking back down to rest on Gavin. The quiet envelops them in the empty house, Gavin brushes a piece of hair from Huxley’s face, smoothing his hands down to massage his neck where he holds the most tension.
“Let me compliment you Hux.” He whispers, “You deserve it.”
“Thank you.” Another kiss to the top of his head. “Are you… busy today?”
The jock considers for a moment, “nah, not that I can think of. Just wanted to spend the day chilling with you, you know?”
“I’m down for whatever you want, hot stuff.”
Huxley springs up, if he had a tail it would be wagging a mile a minute. “Really? Because there’s this new botanical garden that just opened up, and I mean you don’t have to if you’d rather do something else-”
“Yes of course.” Gavin stops the self deprecating spiral in its tracks. “Your company and joy is all I really need.”
Huxley’s eyes go wide as he processes. “Okay. Thank you Gav… That means a lot.”
“You are most welcome. But first-” the demon confidently snaps his fingers and the covers spring back up to wrap around the pair comfortably again. “More cuddles?”
“Hell yeah dude.” Huxley grins, “C’mere.”

Knock knock.
Dear smiles to themselves as they hear the sound, perfectly on time. “Come in Gavin.”
“How did you know it was me?” The incubus purrs as he winds his way round the door, shutting it with a click behind him. “Missed me that much?”
“I heard you warping behind the door.” They point out, “But I did also miss you if that helps.”
“It certainly does my Dear. I missed you a great deal this morning, you were off in such a hurry, at the crack of dawn no less.” Gavin winds his way towards their desk, hiding something behind his back, despite both of them knowing what it is. He elegantly places himself next to an essay they’re marking, careful not to disturb anything, despite his gaze not leaving theirs for a second.
“You know full well that we were the unlucky few with early starts today Gav.” They put their pen down, and close their laptop too for good measure, ensuring all their attention is to the demon on their desk. “I had to cover some late nocturnal classes for some vampire students today. I’m sorry if I woke you.”
Gavin shakes his head, “Not at all beautiful, in fact, that’s why I’m here.”
They wait for a moment, breezing past his compliment, waiting for his reveal. “Are you going to tell me?”
“Are you going to guess?”
They level him with their best teacher stare, until they both burst into laughter. “Is it my lunch that I always seem to forget?” Dear asks, eyes glimmering.
“Why, they truly are right about you being so smart.” He dramatically pulls out a tupperware of slightly uneven sushi. “I considered making you spaghetti today, so we could have some wonderful Lady and the Tramp moments. But alas I thought I’d spare your desk. I know only too well how the wrong meal can stain.”
Dear nearly melts into a puddle at the little heart shaped rolls lined up neatly in the little box. “These are beautiful Gavin, did you hand make these?”
“I most certainly did Professor dearest.” He pretends to examine his immaculate nails but they notice the hasty glance to check their expression.
It had been two weeks now since Dear had started getting very forgetful with their lunch. The first time it happened they had resigned themselves to another vending machine fuelled day; when Gavin had appeared like an angel with their leftovers that he picked up on his way to class. They’d taken notice of how Gavin lit up at being able to help them - plus getting to spend their lunch on little dates with him had brightened up even their longest days teaching.
“They look wonderful sweetheart.”
Gavin glows at the compliment. “Here, allow me?” He offers with a wink, holding up a piece of sushi to their mouth.
Trying to hide how bashful this made them, they simply nod, taking a bite.
“See? Beautiful.” He whispers, not taking his eyes off them.
“The sushi?” Dear clears their throat, trying to straighten their tie in an attempt to look more composed as they realise. “Oh! Me. Thank you Gavin.”
They're not a person of many words, they prefer action over most things and take so much joy in listening to what people want to say. Since they’d begun dating their partners, they’d felt more confident in showing themselves back. Gavin’s attention is not unwelcome; it's warm and intense but also gentle. A spotlight that illuminates them not for a stage, but for a chance to connect.
Gavin tilts their chin up delicately while they get lost in thought. “Can I kiss you Dear?”
They barely finish nodding before he meets their lips with his. They hum happily against him, taking his hand and giving it a small squeeze.
“Now.” Gavin pulls back, pressing a kiss to their forehead. “Do you want to tell me about you and Freelancer's pottery class? Or should I tell you about the first batch of sushi I made that was far less successful than the one you're currently enjoying.”
Dear chuckles, “Tell me about attempt one while I finish?”
“Of course gorgeous.” Gavin grins before launching into the story.

Attending his classes, helping him prep, asking useful questions, ‘i got you’ from the class, sitting in his office and listening to Lasko ramble while he marks work
“Professor?”
“Yes! I-I mean yes, how can I help you? G-Gavin?” Lasko hurries over to Gavin, ever attentive to all his students, letting him into his office. “Sorry I didn’t think anyone would want to use my office hours today of all days, but I like to offer them just in case and I know that some students have to work and there’s a whole lot of catching up to do in all classes right now, l-l-let alone mine and-”
Gavin runs his finger along Lasko’s shoulders, drawing the stammering professor’s attention away from his words, reducing it to half formed babbling.
“Lasko, breathe. I came to check on you because you seemed a little… in your head in class today.” He murmurs against Lasko’s cheek, as he settles himself on his shoulders, arms draping down over the fidgety man’s chest.
“R-R-R-Right! Well that’s um- that’s sweet of you to uh… to do.” The incubus takes great pleasure in the way Lasko’s form relaxes subtly underneath his weight, pleased the stammering has at least turned to something more flustered rather than anxious.
Gavin huffs in mild amusement, “Well, I came here to offer support to my other favourite, very beautiful professor.”
“Gavinnnn.” Lasko whines, allowing the incubus to guide him to his office sofa unthinkingly, only really noticing when he’s curled up against Gavin’s chest.
“Oh.” Lasko blinks twice, tilting his head back to look up at Gavin’s face. “H-Hi there. Have I ever told you how pretty you are?”
The incubus snorts, cheeks heating up, and tail curling into a little heart. “Hello yourself handsome. Do you… want to talk about today?”
“Not really.” Lasko deflates into the delicate touches down his sides. “Just tired a-and a little self conscious I suppose.”
Gavin hums, nibbling his ear lightly. “Thank you for telling me Lasko. Perhaps I could offer a distraction?”
“O-oh yes. I mean uh haha yes! What do- what are you offering?”
“You're already sitting on my lap, Lasko, and you want more so soon?” He teases lowly.
“N-N-Not at all, I w-was just uh-”
Gavin hurries to remedy his mistake, pulling the elemental back to his chest from where Lasko had half jumped up. “Sorry sorry, habit. Not the time for teasing.” He snaps his fingers, summoning Lasko’s switch along with a small pile of games. “How about a game then? Something simple, but easy to focus on. Hot boyfriend’s choice.”
“Mario Kart?” Lasko asks hopefully, finally relaxing a little as he’s picking up the controllers.
“Whatever you would like, my darling.” Gavin affirms, settling his head on Lasko’s shoulder as the two settle in for a break from the day.

The sun has finally given up on the day, sinking down below the horizon to rest. Damien Rhone however was still awake; hunched over a laptop screen unaware of the waning light, as society permits and regulations reflect off his glasses.
What does startle him out of his trance is the sound of space tearing as Gavin rifts into the room right next to him.
“Jesus- Gavin! You could've given me a heart attack!” He splutters.
“And you are giving yourself a world of pain for tomorrow with working this late, especially with how you're sitting.” Gavin lightly reprimands, stepping closer. “I am sorry though, I didn't mean to startle you.”
“It's… fine.” Damien pinches his nose with a sigh, unable to stay mad at his partner. “Just could you walk out? The sound is too much for me right now.”
“Oh you misunderstand sunlight, I'm here to drag you away from that terrible technological beast that has entranced you.”
Damien shoots him a look that could freeze lava, “I know you know what a laptop is Gavin. And I'll be done in a bit, there's still more that needs to be done.”
“Hm, no.” The incubus steps forward again, wary not to touch without permission, “Careful hot stuff or you'll melt me down into a puddle.” He winks, relishing Damien’s half hearted growl undermined by the slight temperature increase of the office.
“I need to get this done, baby.” The fire elemental insists. “I just need to finish up a couple of forms and fill in some applicant requests and potentially get around to adjusting my invoice filing system.”
Able to get a closer look at his boyfriend, Gavin notices how worn out Damien is; eyes unfocused and heavy, and hair more disheveled by the minute from running his hand through it. Even from a mile away Gavin can sense the flare up in how he’s adjusting his legs awkwardly.
“Damien.” He puts his hand on the laptop. “Stop. Save your work and then you are resting.”
“I told you I'm fine, I'm nearly done! I said I'd finish by five and-”
“Baby it's 6:30.”
Damien scoffs, “No it’s-” he notices the small clock on his computer screen and stalls.
Gavin takes this opportunity to gently pull his chair away from his desk, forcing him to look at him. “You are done for the day. I promise I can make it worth your time, handsome.”
Even the grumpy fire elemental couldn’t hide his smile behind the eye roll he gave. “Fine. Only because otherwise you’ll gather the troops and I’ll never hear the end of it.”
“Good b-” Gavin grins.
“Don’t push it.” Damien shoots him a glare, causing the mischievous incubus to hold up his hands in surrender.
The second the laptop is closed, Gavin scoops the fiery man into his arms, carrying him towards the kitchen.
“Gavin. Put. Me. Down.” He hisses, but makes no effort to escape.
“Do you actually want me to put you down or do you just enjoy sulking about me looking after you?”
Damien just turns his head to the side, refusing to look at Gavin, slight pout on his face. Gavin chuckles, carefully pulling off his glasses and pressing a kiss to his forehead. “You're cute when you pout.”
“You're annoying.”
“So annoying that I made you mac and cheese?”
“...thank you Gavin.”
“Always.”
~
The bathroom door opens to release a cloud of steam as Freelancer finishes their shower.
“Oh hey Gav.” They smile at the sight of the incubus walking by.
“Shame Deviant, I really hoped to join you in there.” He strolls forward, taking their hand and pressing a kiss to the back of it.
They snort, adjusting their towel. “You’re welcome to keep me company while I finish up in here.”
Gavin brightens up and they laugh again as he follows them, tail swishing excitedly. He cozies up close to them as soon as they’re back in, kissing all over their face excitedly.
“Gav! Not yet.” They giggle, half heartedly pushing him away. “I gotta moisturise or I’ll be all crusty and uncomfortable.”
“Then allow me.” He holds a hand out expectantly.
“Are you sure?” They ask quietly, handing him their body butter hesitantly.
He graciously accepts it, twisting it open and looks up at them knowingly. “I would love nothing more, if you want it too.”
“Very much so.” They nod softly, dropping the towel and stepping forward for a kiss. Their lips meet his sweetly and they enjoy the connection between them for a moment.
The next few minutes are quiet as Gavin smoothes his hand along Freelancer’s body, ensuring every inch of skin is carefully massaged and cared for as he goes. Neither of them speak, neither of them need to as the night air sits with them and the steam peacefully.
Smoothing his hand over their shoulder, he presses a kiss to where his hand just was and balks, “Blegh.” He scrunches up his face in disgust.
“Did you accidentally eat some?” They burst into laughter, cupping his face in theirs.
“Maybe.” He pouts, very put out. “Not intentionally, but for something that smells so much like mango it certainly doesn't taste like it.”
“Aww poor baby.” They tease, before pecking his lips quickly.
“Mm now that's a much better taste.” He grins, wrapping his tail around their waist and pulling them closer. “I think I'd like some more though please.”
They happily comply.
~
Once the yawning becomes too consistent and the call of early rising again tomorrow becomes too insistent to ignore, the group wind their way slowly to bed.
Huxley is first, flinging himself on the bed in the middle. Lasko and Damien tuck themselves in on his left side; Lasko spread eagle on top of Damien. Freelancer flops onto his chest and reaches out a hand for Gavin, who gladly takes it. He ducks underneath Huxley’s arm to rest on his shoulder and drapes his arm as far across his lovers as he can.
One by one they all drift off, sleeping peacefully under the stars and in safe arms.
Hi! Love your work. I would love to see your take on Milo/Sweetheart playing hide and seek/tag. I feel like when Sweetheart is well and truly fully cloaked Milo can't detect them but they like to tease him so they let little bits leak out here and there to keep him chasing.
Thank you anon! This request was so fun and I adore Milo and Sweetheart so much. This is set just after they move into their house together.
As always here's a song to accompany the fic which is underneath the cut and it's available here on ao3 if that's more accessible!
A new house, a new start. A big step, but one Milo wasn't taking alone; he had his Sweetheart and his cat, and he figured any place could be a home for him as long as they were there.
The one thing he never anticipated from moving was the quiet. Having lived in flats his whole life, the lack of human presence directly around him was unsettling at times. It didn't help that Aggro had to stay with Marie for the weekend to be spoiled rotten looked after, while the furniture got moved in. The little menace was determined to leave as much garbage in hard to find places as possible; and Milo and Sweetheart wanted to at least cover some spots before he got the chance to leave a pile of leaves in some hidden crevice.
A small laugh echoed from around the corner, snapping Milo out of his thoughts. His head whipped around with a dangerous smile.
“Don't get cocky Sweetheart.” He calls out, treading lightly to close the living room door to try and cut off their exits. “Don't want you slipping up too early.”
They were keeping him on his toes. They’re well rested and know the only thing allowing him to even get close to finding them was their mate bond. But he needed time to focus on that, and they weren't going to give it to him if they could avoid it.
Scared you'll lose, lover? Their voice, filled with mischief, echoes in his mind. He tries not to get too indulgent when imagining the cheeky grin they always wear when getting a chance to show off their magic.
He chuckles lowly, “I think you know that I don't lose baby.”
Funny. A breath across his ear, he reaches out to grab them but they're already gone, if they were even there at all. I've seen you delight in losing to me plenty of times.
He snorts as he feels a heat rise to his face. “I let you win those times and you know it.”
Whatever helps you keep your pride. Their presence in his head is light but loud. They always make it clear where they're treading in his mind, ensuring never to intrude. They were top in their classes at DAMN for a reason. Do you want a hint?
“Nah I think I can get ya.” He flashes teeth to the room. “And surely you do too if you're only speaking in my head.”
He feels the immediate rise to the challenge as Sweetheart exits his mind, always careful and always clear.
“Let's play then Mr Wolf.” They whisper, voice coming from nowhere. He spins round to catch them, there's only air left for him to grasp.
“You want the wolf huh Sweetheart?” A lighthearted growl is pulled from him as he half shifts, muscles straining his shirt, pupils narrowing, and teeth sharpening his smile.
Aggro’s favourite pillow on the couch twitches and Milo only has enough time to take a step before it's being flung at his chest. He catches it as best he can before seeing the next pillow, one Marie got them, rising ominously into the air.
With a playful snarl he takes the risk, leaping forwards and tackling the taller stealth to the ground, careful to aim for the carpet and with his hand supporting their head.
“Gotcha Sweetheart!” He proclaims triumphantly from where he's straddling their hips.
He hears their heartbeat first - the illusion slowly dropping as they uncloak; and Milo feels his chest warm at the sight of his laughing mate. He followed the magic down, kissing softly and reverently across their shoulders, arms, hands, stomach. And finally back up to their face. He cups a hand over their cheek, smoothing a thumb under their eye before meeting their lips with his.
“Hiya Sweetheart.” He's softened now, adrenaline calming down as he looks into their twinkling eyes. “It's good to see you.”
“I let you win, you know.” They stick their tongue out playfully, giggling as he nuzzles into their neck, nipping at their pulse point.
“I know I know.” He grumbles resting his chin on their chest as he settles down. “What can I say but thank you, oh so generous one.”
They pretend to think for a moment. “Perhaps a kiss?”
“Ohhh with pleasure.” Milo happily dives back down to kiss them, neither of them able to fight off their smile as he does. “I. Love. You. So. Damn. Much. Sweetheart.” He emphasises each word with another kiss, relishing the feeling of them melting against him.
“I love you too Milo.” They murmur, against his lips in the stolen breaths between kisses.
They finally pull back breathless and gazing at each other adoringly. Sweetheart nudges their forehead against his, nuzzling into his face, feeling the slight scruff on his cheek on theirs.
“I love this. I love that I get this and I get to share it with you.” Sweetheart whispers into the quiet. “You've given me the world Milo Greer, and it's all right here.” They hold his face delicately, like he's their greatest treasure.
“Don't go making me emotional now baby, you complain enough that I'm too sappy.” He teases softly, brushing an eyelash off their face. “There you go being all too sweet to me.”
“You love it.”
“I love you.”
Sweetheart hums happily at that, pulling him down to lay on them properly so they can wrap their arms around him.
The peace subsists for a while, holding the lovers amidst the chaos of the half unpacked living room. Milo could hear their mind drifting to the never ending chore list of moving in - mentally counting how much work before they're allowed this rest. So instead he pulls their attention back to him with a small bite to their clavicle.
“Now you may be good at hiding,” His face splits into a devilish expression, “but how fast can you run Sweetheart?” The challenge hangs in the air between the pair momentarily before Milo leaps up, sprinting towards the bedroom, Sweetheart hot on his heels.
As they chase after him up the stairs, laughter and footsteps filling the halls of their home; he thinks, maybe the quiet isn't so bad if it means he gets to hear more from the love of his life, every single day.

What did you think is the best part about finally having your unempowered partner know about the magical world? I mean other than getting to be honest about about who you are I guess. What do you think Asher and/or David like best about informing Baabe/Angel?
Ooh good question Anon, thank you!
Aside from the honesty aspect, I think it would be the joy of getting to experience the magic anew through your partner. Especially if you were born empowered. Plus sharing your powers with your partner has gotta be so exciting, not just for shifters but all magic. Like with Elliot and his dream walking! I personally would be so excited to do stuff to make my partner's life easier like BAM dishes are done! ✨ Magic style ✨
For Asher, I think his fav thing would be getting to watch his mate get genuinely curious about it. They're a very intelligent and planning oriented person, so to get to see them focus that energy on something rewarding, positive and personal that he can support them with directly?? He's there and he found some cool wolf themed stationary. His favourite thing in the world. Plus even if he doesn't know the exact answer, bam! quality time with his mate researching, or bam! friend group hang out time, and bringing his mate into his family. It's a way for them to connect and spend time together over something they can share, even if Baaabe can't shift. Especially with how much pressure work puts on Baaabe, and how important the pack is to Asher (after his parents left to travel and sister got married and moved).
For David I think it's always nice to have that step back from the pressures of being an Alpha. Angel being able to contextualise that, while those struggles and responsibilities are important, they're not all he is, and he's capable and has them on his side. He can afford to have fun, he can afford to let his guard down. We see that in his character growth from when he first meets Angel to them encouraging and inspiring him to connect more with his pack as people he loves not just people he has to lead. And also rediscovering simple joys of his powers (head pats for example from when he first shifted for them) that wouldn't occur to his pack mates aside from a joke or from way before Gabe's passing. Sharing his magic is sharing his vulnerability with Angel and getting to share that with them and trust them to treat it with respect is what I think he most enjoys.
Plus both of them deffo enjoy getting to show off to someone who will see their wolf forms for the first time and will be stunned at how ridiculously big they are. There's a lot of bragging ("See Baaabe! Your man's perfect to defend your honour in case things get ruff." "How are you still shorter than me when I'm on four paws Angel?") on both ends.
A lot more than you likely bargained for Anon but you unlocked character analysis rambles habshsbd. Thank you again for the question!!
