I wrote four fics for the 2022 Fic in a Box Exchange, and one was a darker Queliot fic. Mind the tags, the MCD is off-screen and is not Queliot.
I do miss writing these two, and I had fun looking at them again with a darker lens.
The Way the Story Ends
New energy surged through Quentinâs veins.
Magic. And yeah, it was magic, but it was so much more than thatâit was power. Knowledge, the likes of which heâd never begin to understand as a human, was searing through him, flaring up in his eyes and on his skin. He looked down at his hands, at the blue flames that licked over them, up his wrist and disappearing into the sleeve of his hoodie.
This was him. This is me. Magic and strength and life and death were inside of him, to do with as he wished. As he wanted.

Instead of casting a mending spell in the Seam, Quentin casts another spell that impacts him in a different way.
