Valentine's Treats
A little late but I have a couple done. One is for tinhutlady who wanted something original and under 50 words (because she likes challenging me obviously!) It's exactly 50 and is from what I plan to write this nano November.
Meet Faolan: He had seen a demon. No, his mind had finally fractured. Faolan collapsed down on a ratty bundle of blankets and lit a candle. He shrugged out of his coat, saw the claw marks. He cooked the heroin, barely cooled it and let it take the demon from his mind.

Rating: teen
Notes: here on AO3
Lorne sits back with his Seabreeze listening to Cordy giving Fred some pointers about the finer nuances of fashion. He can tell it doesn’t sink in much. Fred’s mind is too full of things far more important to her, like math, like her unabashed Angel worship. He doesn’t blame her. Angel was instrumental in saving her from Pylea. He doesn’t think Fred’s style is all that bad but recognizes that fashion is Cordy’s armor and she is trying to share that because she knows Fred is still raw. It’s only been days since they had returned to Earth.
He sips his tart drink, thinking about all the reasons he’s here at the Hyperion. He could never have stayed back on Pylea with his ‘family.’ Those people might share blood with him but they weren’t his family. The people in this room, Angelcakes, Gunn, Wes and Cordy they’re who matter to him. Their family had just grown by one new member. There would be growing pains, Lorne’s sure but it would all work out. Fred was a sweetheart, smart as a whip. He for one welcomed her with open arms.
Lorne hadn’t asked her to sing yet, but he would. But for now, let her settle in. It would all work out. She would be as happy as he was here. Of that Lorne felt certain.
