Welcome to the Wrightiverse!
Wait who are you, what is all this, what's happening, is this Dungeons and Daddies fic or what. So, did you ever write something that started as fanfic for a show, and then the show itself went where you couldn't follow? But you still really liked your story? Anyway, that's the relationship between this stuff and Dungeons and Daddies. Why is it called this. Because long ago, when we had the idea of a boyfriend for Glenn, it seemed obvious that he would also need an actress name, so we settled on Robin Wright. I have no memory of who initially called it the wrightiverse, but the name stuck.
What actually is it. A love story about two people who both thought the "love story" part of their lives was over. A story about late bloomers, found families, growing up, fatherhood, and trying to figure out how to adjust to domestic fluff when you've been living in an angst fic kind of world until now.
Who wrote it. Me and @shrack, with a lot of brainstorming, story pitching, and help from many others.
The Actual Stories, In Order:
The Name of the Game (Rated Mature, 35K words, complete.) A story about the Close boys and their next-door neighbors. First impressions can be tough, but with some patience and luck, maybe you can do the math wrong and get the right answer sometimes.
Somewhere In The Crowd There’s You (Rated Mature, 91K words, complete.) Glenn is trying to figure out the whole "wait a minute, I fell in love and now I gotta share a bedroom for the rest of my life?" thing. Nick is trying to figure out how to handle high school and Connor's absence. Robin is trying to figure out how the hell you relate to either of these Close boys over the long term. Everybody's just doing their best.
The Heartaches Come and They Go (Rated Teen, 19K words, open-ended collection of stand-alone pieces.) Stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. AUs, one-shots, prompt fills, etc.
The Winner Takes It All (Rated Teen, 19K words, open-ended vignette collection.) Penny was another character who turned out to have a lot to say, but who was too separate from the main stories to be a good point-of-view narrator. The story of the many years the Wrights spent together before the beginning of Name, good stuff and bad.
The Visitors (Mature, 36K, work in progress.) A few years down the road, domestic bliss is disrupted by an old friend of Glenn's who needs a quick favor. Well, more like a big favor. Well, more like partners for a magical heist in Faerun. Quick and easy, right? Glenn and Robin abruptly find themselves in a Faerun that's evolved from dungeons and dragons to frock coats and masquerade balls. Mystery, magic, mistaken identities, romance, trickery, scams, schemes, and everything else you might expect to find under a manor house roof.
