"I lied to you," gasps Cecil.

"Well why would I be mad at you for that, friend?" laughs a freshly-scarred, perpetually-grinning Kevin, voice laced with poisoned ecstasy. "Strexcorp won us over anyway, as they should have all along!"

"I lied to you..." confesses Cecil.

"Not really," reassures a grinning, yellow-robed Kevin, Prophet of the Smiling God, standing atop the sandcastles he built. "I love my town. It's not what it once was, and they don't love me as I love them anymore, but it's here, and it's mine, and we're happy."

"I lied to you!" yells Cecil.

"You gave us hope," sobs a young, wounded Kevin, bravely defiant to the end even when his end refused to come. "And I don't know if I should thank you or curse you for it!"

"I lied to you," whispers Cecil.

"I know," whispers back an old, hollow-eyed Kevin, a wisp of a person lost in the endless sands of time after everything he has known and loved has been blown to dust several times over. "I forgive you."

Summary: Prince Cecil of Night Vale sets off on a journey into a Desert Otherworld to find his missing lover, who disappeared into thin air a year ago. He instead finds himself with his enthusiastically bloodstained counterpart from a rival kingdom, a Prophecy foretelling their doom at each other's hands, fragmented glimpses of the past and future, and increasingly concerning clues about what, exactly happened to Carlos the Alchemist.

...when he finds Carlos and brings him home, he is dragging him to bed to take a nice, long nap.

Imagine your OTP get their first apartment together, and they’re decorating it as they get into a small little argument about what goes where and they get into a playful little tussle, eventually caving into a romantic session of intimacy on the floor. (Bonus for OT3 or even another OTP, they knock on the door and enter with a big, surprise house warming gift as the romantics are going on.)

A new home, ham-fisted innuendos, and Night Valean IKEA furniture.

New Kevcilos fic! Just a whole bunch of fluff and goofiness, based on this Tumblr prompt.

Cecil's design borrowed from @perfect-cecilos, who initially shared the prompt with the Discord server and proposed making it Kevcilos.

"Hi. Prince Rupert the First. Of the West. Nice to meet you. And you’re…the other prince of the Prophecy, aren’t you?"

"...that’s it?! You’re just going to introduce yourself, just like that? No lies or deceit about your identity? No knife in my back while you do it? No tricking me into a pit? What kind of a rival are you?"

Or: the one where Rupert succeeds in stealing the Forbidden Book, doesn’t lie to Amir when they first meet, and befriends the guy destined to kill him through sheer willpower.

My canon-divergent The Two Princes fic Veritas is back with a new chapter! To the three people who are still here, I hope this was worth the wait. More chapters to come, hopefully!

Excerpt from the latest chapter under the cut:

"The Kingdom of the East is thriving, despite the aftermath of our fathers' war. It will take more than a cursed Forest to destroy us," Amir says sharply.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to insinuate anything." A beat. "...my kingdom's not doing much better, really."

"That is why it is of the utmost importance that we are here, Prince Rupert."

Once upon a time, an Alchemist came to the Kingdom of Night Vale, and the Prince fell madly in love with him.

Over time, the Alchemist grew to love him in turn, and they courted, and they were happy.

One day, the Alchemist, ever-curious, made plans to investigate the strange properties of a strange House in the kingdom, one that, despite appearing to be an ordinary house, Did Not actually Exist. However, on the first day of his investigation, he went missing without a trace.

No-one in the kingdom saw or heard from the Alchemist since. It was as though he'd vanished into thin air, like grains of sand lost in the wind.

The Prince was inconsolable.

For those wondering (and enabling encouraging me on this AU), here's a glimpse at what happened to Carlos in my Kevcilos royalty/fairytale/time-travel AU!

Summary: Cecil is much like a cat, in the sense that his favorite place to sleep is sprawled on top of someone he loves. His boyfriends are more than happy to let him.

Have some Kevcilos fluff :D

[fluctuating-fanby]

It turns out Cecil is a sprawler, as Kevin finds out when he wakes up the next day to find Cecil's head pillowed on his chest, limbs and torso spread out every which way atop him and Carlos like the world's wiggliest weighted blanket. Most of his actual weight is on Carlos so as not to put pressure on Kevin's mostly healed wounds, but their legs are tangled together and a hand grasps Kevin's tightly as if afraid to let go, even in sleep. Carlos, meanwhile, has his face pressed into Kevin's hair, breath tickling his ear.

It's really, really nice.

Excerpt from (yet another) Kevcilos WIP; fluffy cuddly scenes like this are some of my favorite to write!

I headcanon that Cecil is like a cat in that his favorite sleeping position is just. Lying on top of someone else.
