Slowly, unexpectedly by @piebingo 2.8k words. Complete. Rating G. It starts slowly, unexpectedly. And it's slow, but it's not so unexpected when they do finally talk about it. Or, how Wille falls in love with Simon, and then watches his friend fall in love back.
You Pour And I'll Say by @phneltwrites 4k words. Complete. Rating E. Nils shrugs. “You’re a good starter boyfriend, Simon, but nothing lasts forever.” What a small man. Four years isn’t forever, but it’s clearly longer than Nils could ever imagine being wanted. It’s Simon’s turn to show him something. Simon shows the club that Wilhelm is definitively taken.
The Long Way Home by @iwouldnevergetintofanfic 56k words. Complete. Rating E. What Simon hopes to find on his summer road trip: Peace, quiet, lightness, a less stressed-out version of himself. What he finds instead: A stranger who seems even more desperate than Simon to get away from everything. (Honourable mention to Change My Mind and Look What You Made Me Do by the same author).
Moon go down (do it again) by @skibasyndrome 4.2k words. Complete. Rating T. “Do you like it here?” Simon likes the way he looks at him before he answers. He likes how one side of his mouth ticks upward. He’s not sure if he’s supposed to like it so much, the way Wille’s eyes roam the small dorm room and then land back on him. But he likes it. “Here?” Wille retorts with a smile. Or: Wille and Simon spend an evening sitting in Simon's dorm room. (Honourable mention to Wash me in the water by the same author).
Love in Your Pocket by @dreamyelectronicmusic 2k words. Complete. Rating T. Wille likes slipping his hands into the front pocket of Simon’s hoodie when he hugs him from behind. One day he finds something a little unexpected inside.
clair de lune by @sillyunicorn 100 words. Complete. Rating G. Simon only sees him when he's playing piano, like a shadow in the corner of his vision.
gillar gillar by @grapehyasynth 6.2k words. Complete. Rating M. He is a warm pressure along Wille's shoulder and hip, and Wille stops listening, doesn't mean to, finds what Simon is saying very interesting, but he is frozen, head tilted just slightly towards Simon's, wanting only to be this close to him forever. The fear of startling him away or doing something that crosses a line is still deep in him, after all the tense, yearning complications of their friendship over the years, despite what happened in Stockholm before Simon left. (Honourable mention to got you covered, under covers and taste the sunshine on your skin by the same author).
Breaking Beds by @hergrandplan 24k words. WIP. Rating E. Wille is mostly happy with his life – he has a home, a fiancée who loves him, and he has made peace with the fact that he will one day be king. It isn’t the life he’d have chosen for himself, but it’s the life he has nevertheless. And then he meets Simon – beautiful, bright-eyed Simon, who’s writing Wille’s biography, and in doing so, turns his world upside down. Wille finds himself feeling things he’s never felt before. But will he do what’s right? Or what his heart tells him to do?
Mine by @earlgrey-lateatnight 2.5k words. Complete. Rating E. Wille gets a new look. Simon responds favourably.
Safe and Sound by @in-amor-veritas 24k words. WIP. Rating M. Simon Eriksson. Victor of the 72nd Hunger Games. Wilhelm Crown. Son of the Capitol aristocracy. Their lives meet and intertwine against the backdrop of the games, the rebellion and the journey to freedom for them both.
Two Drowning Coals by @unfortunate17 51k words. WIP. Rating E. Wilhelm is the love of sixteen-year-old Simon's life. Until he's not. Then, half a decade later, they meet again in a university classroom.
When Two Worlds Collide by @zarogz 19k words. WIP. Rating M. When a simple business trip turns into a rescue mission, Wilhelm and Simon have to hunt down the cosmos to ensure the safety of their future. Also laser guns.
Hope and Legacy by @malinowaj 63k words. Complete. Rating M. Simon Eriksson has been skating nearly all his life and has a dream. To make that dream come true, he agrees to help Wilhelm with his skating. Little does Simon know that in doing so, he's getting more than he bargained for.
