    Summary

    This is an older fic I wrote a while back while experimenting with how I thought the intricacies of Victor’s fever would have gone, but I still like it a lot so I’ll post it.

    Summary

    The lieutenant gave him what he supposed was a meaningful look, but Victor was in no frame of mind to decipher it. “Captain Walton won’t ask on his own behalf, but I have no such qualms. If it would be no trouble to you, sir, I think he’d be very glad to see you.”

    He need not have asked; Victor had made his decision as soon as he had learned of the captain’s condition.

    Walton is indisposed, and Victor finds a way to repay the captain’s kindness.

    Written for the Frankenvember Day 12 prompts “Bedridden” & “Fever”.

    Summary

    Robert's lips are only a hair's breadth from Henry's waiting mouth when he feels another presence, not only close beside him but on him.

    The abrupt arrival of another body pressed up against him from behind—slender, but unmistakably powerful—and arms draped intimately around his shoulders causes Robert's flush to deepen ten shades and a foolish grin to melt onto his face unbidden.

    So overwhelmed is he by the attention that it takes a moment for him to realise that the newcomer is glaring daggers at him.

    Robert Walton’s chance encounter with a handsome young Genevan on the most romantic day of the year is exactly what he needs to take his mind off his much-anticipated Arctic expedition.

    Unfortunately for him, there seems to be something more than friendship between this beautiful stranger and his fellow traveller—mercurial, but no less enchanting—who seems less than pleased by the attention being paid to their mutual acquaintance.

    Summary

    “Oh, thou resemblest a poppy with that color!” Henry teased, yet made no move to back away. “Wherefore art thou timid? If I recall accurately, our time together in Geneva consisted of many confident touches-”

    “We do not speak of that, Clerval.” Victor’s words bordered on hissing, except he could not bring himself to treat Henry with such unfriendliness.

    After Victor's spiral, Henry tends to him, nurturing him back to health, and subsequently helping him rediscover joy in life!
