Bravery doesn't come free. For Eliot, the price he pays to find answers might just mean losing himself.

Mind over batter. Or: five times Eliot Waugh baked away a bad bout of daddy issues (and one time it was sweet celebration).

Summary
Eliot Waugh is an actor on the brink of the biggest break of his career. Quentin Coldwater is a former child star turned aspiring screenwriter who's paying his dues as a glorified PA. Three years of near-constant contact has turned their codependent working relationship into a close, comfortable bond that one refuses to examine too closely and the other is reluctant to risk.
When the studio behind Eliot's prospective new project expresses their doubts about his party boy public image, his reps brainstorm a way to make him more marketable: raffling off a night on the town on Eliot's arm. The winner is a wholesome farm boy from Brakebills, Texas, who makes such an impression that Eliot agrees to take a vacation from the spotlight to spend some time in Mike's tiny hometown. But somewhere between bar bathrooms and bad motels, Eliot might be brave enough to act on what he really wants… and Quentin might just manage to write his way to a happy ending.
Loosely based, with liberal creative license, on Win a Date with Tad Hamilton.

Summary
It happened. That they'd asked themselves how, when it's literally the least important part of this, he can chalk up to shock or shortsightedness or his own sheer stupidity. It's the why that actually matters, and he thinks he knows the answer to that. So the real question… is how to make it happen again.

Summary
Robin can't stop talking about Jules with anyone who will listen… maybe even when he shouldn't. He just can't figure out if that's because it's Jules — and let's face it, that would be reason enough — or because, now that he knows he's gay, he just needs to tell someone (anyone, everyone) who he really is.

The Only Exception (with the floppy hair) by Rubick for freneticfloetry
Fandoms: The Magicians (TV)

Summary
Eliot slams the flyer down on the table. “Fillory has an entire festival dedicated to fucking and I had no idea it existed? What the fuck, Margo?”
“It’s not dedicated to fucking,” Fen breaks in. “And it only happens every few years, because it’s dedicated to finding your soulmate.” She smiles brightly, her eyes sparkling as she sighs. “They only put ‘fucking’ in the title to get everyone’s attention. And because of all the brothels that are set up on the festival site.”
“Finding your soulmate?” Quentin breaks in. Eliot’s eyes cut over to him, a soft smile automatically forming on his face as he takes in Quentin’s crooked crown, and his soft brown eyes that are focused on Fen. “Like, a real ‘only one in the entire world for me’ soulmate?”
“Mmhmm,” Fen says, nodding. “Do they not have soulmates on Earth?”
“Only in Disney movies,” Margo says, sitting down in her chair. “And the best fanfiction ever written.”

One of the best, funniest, sweetest, hottest takes on soulmates you'll read in any fandom, and certainly one of the most original.

Summary
There's a longstanding tradition of playing Death for high-risk high-reward stakes: power, immortality, bragging rights. In this case, they're playing for Coldwater. And Margo––HBIC and best goddamn Welter's captain this side of the Neitherlands––isn't going down without a fight. No matter who complains about her choice of game.
C'mon. As if they were gonna play chess for Quentin Coldwater's mortal soul.

Summary
In every possible timeline, Quentin and Eliot find their way to each other. Including this one. No Beast, no quests, yet including the greatest challenge of all—a timeline where Quentin’s exam guide and first friend was, uh… Todd. Rom-com fun, for the soul.
(Or: In which Quentin is allowed to find joy.)
