    Summary

    Vessel has been through a lot before sleep, he has come a long way to get where he is now, a son whom he loves very much, his beloveds, and their music that is progressing in the industry. Vessel thought that this was it, they were whole and healed, what could they possibly be missing?

    Not a what, a who

    Their IV, they meet him at a cafe where Ivy works at. One slip up and they are on the verge of loosing him, and it was all their fault.

    Ivy is angry, he should be angrier, really, who did they think they were? Barging in his life than just stripping themselves from it, he didn't even think it was all his fault, or was it? He didn’t know he just wanted them back, he didn’t even know what they were at this stage, lovers? Mates? Distant friends? He didn’t know, and quite frankly, he didn’t care, he just wanted them back.

    Summary

    Eyes. Huge, ocean blue, gorgeous eyes.

    And they're staring right at him. Into him. Through him.

    Vessel feels seen. He feels witnessed. His thoughts surely laid bare to this stranger. The man knows his secrets. He knows what he's done, he knows, he knows—

    Vessel's stomach drops right through his body and into the center of the earth. He desperately wishes to follow it. To disappear. But doing that would mean not seeing those eyes ever again. It would be tantamount to torture, condemning himself to starvation after only just glimpsing something so delicious.

     

    OR:

    A story in which the vessels are all artists. There’s idiots in love. There’s a coffee shop. There’s a memory that none of them can quite hold onto. There may or may not be an old god trapped in a painting.

    Summary

    III cocked his head, flinched, then looked back at Ivy. “I fucked up. I fucked up its plan. It was my fault.”

    What the fuck was happening right now? Everything that had happened replayed in Ivy’s head against his will. Getting kicked out of bands, the failed dates, the sex with Sleep Token. It felt like things were – oddly enough – falling into place, like everything made sense but didn’t at the same time.

    Kevin’s words about possession, Ivy feeling cursed.

    ~~~

    Everything is about to work out for Ivy, if he lets it.

    Summary

    "He does not know who you are yet, but he will."

    “What if I can’t help him? What if he runs once he learns? How will I explain this to the others? III can’t take another heartbreak…not after last time.”

    "He does not know who you are yet, but he will. He’s our Fourth. He’s mine."

    The Vessels are left shaken after the sudden departure of their first IV. III has taken this loss the hardest and hides himself away from his lovers. II and Vessel are left scrambling. Between preparing for their upcoming concert, wondering what went wrong, and trying to piece III back together, Sleep sends Vessel dreams of the new IV. Meanwhile, IV is simply trying to keep one foot in front of the other after his life broke apart. A chance encounter changes the course of his life and he soon finds himself free-falling in love with these three, strange men who want him to play guitar for their band. Sleep is eager to bring IV into the fold, but she isn't the only one who wants to claim him. Something dangerous is brewing under the surface and it's going to take everything the Vessels and Sleep have to keep IV safe.

    Summary

    Vessel has relied on Sleep as far as he can remember. Sleep was the one to give him all he needs, all he wants… but was it actually? Vessel believed he was doing everything correct, until he realized that he was stuck in a vicious, never-ending cycle of death. He needs to find a way out of Eden, before it swallows him whole…

    OR,
    An alternate universe where Vessel and the Numerals are trying to free themselves from Sleep’s grasp.

    Summary

    He curls in on himself, tucking his legs under the bench, but his knees knock against the table, too long, too big, and it sends his eyes burning. It makes everything within him burn. “It’s not exactly possible, but I’ve always wanted…to feel small, sometimes.”

    “Just sometimes?” II says.

    His face burns. “It doesn’t matter. Most people laugh like it’s some sort of inside joke, but I get why. Those are soft things and I'm the furthest thing from that. I don't get to be.”

    “But you wanna be?”

    He swallows, looking away. “Doesn’t matter. No one’s wanted to.”

    “What if I did?”

    He blinks once, then twice. “Huh?"

    Or, the one in which Vessel keeps getting confused for an alpha, II keeps getting confused for an omega, and somehow, that is the starting place of everything.

    Summary

    ‘Just hands,’ III says sternly before IV can even suggest toe-sucking. 

    ‘You’re no fun,’ IV says, smirking as he runs both his thumbs up the arch of III’s foot. 

    ‘Getting to touch me with your hands is a privilege not everyone is getting today,’ III tells him. ‘Be grateful.’

    IV's not sure what he's just walked in on but he thinks he's into it.

    Summary

    There’s something wrong with the man peering into the bed, IV can’t quite work out what it is in this darkness and he cracks his dry mouth open to ask, “III? Is that you?” He sniffs the air, shuddering at the vile stench, it’s damp and moldy all at the same time, it smells like something is rotting, “Fucking hell, what have you been doing tonight? Go take a shower.”

    The man doesn’t move, there’s barely any indication that he’s heard him and IV rubs the sleep out his eyes, what is going on tonight?

    Summary

    Every now and then the odd car will drive past and IV will desperately yank his thumb out, hoping that someone will pick him up, but they all drive past.

    He can’t blame them, he wouldn’t stop for him either, he must look a wreck, and who would trust him enough to have him in their car? Still, he doesn’t stop trying, needing more than anything to get to safety.

    Summary

    or how Vessel slowly learns self-confidence under the guidance of his lovers- ahem, I meant, friends

    beta reader is the lovely @these_bones_are_disabled

    I will add more tags as I add more chapters and I hope to post somewhat regularly

    did someone say parallel universes? (no one did but anyways I deliver)

    also be prepared to read a story where already posted chapters will probably get slightly edited so I can force continuity if needed
