Summary
Onua had asked him for a “conversation”, though that was almost certainly too generous of a noun. “Sometimes I worry that Daine may have gotten too attached to you.”
He shrugged, suddenly wary of that same old accusation. “Is it still too attached if it’s mutual?”
“No, I think you two are very good for each other. If nothing else, I’m thrilled you have someone else to discuss finch beaks with.”
5 + 1. Five times Numair has to discuss his relationship with Daine. -

Summary
“Of sorts.” Numair paused for a long moment and then spoke with care. “Daine. You actually believe that you lack sufficient merit to be found attractive by me?”
Daine refused to look away from his shoulder. “Yes, basically. And ‘merit’ isn’t really the right word. There are better things to be than pretty. And in any case, I’m not upset by that anymore. And even when I was, I never held it against you.”
The words came out without any editing from higher thought. “No, that’s not correct. That is, I find you very attractive.” -

Summary
Numair felt himself smile and think that her timeline sounded ideal. She was plenty young. They could have a long stretch as a childless couple, entire years where he wouldn’t need to share her, and still have time for two, or even three, children.
He buttered his own apricot roll and took a huge bite. Numair chewed and swallowed. He replayed the thought he’d just had. He did so again.
The roll fell out of his hand and onto the table.
Or: Snapshots as Numair crafts his marriage in reverse and mostly by accident.

Summary
The girl sitting cross-legged against the front door rose to greet her friend.
“Mair!” She beamed. And then seeing him moving closer—“Oh no, you won’t want to touch me like this—I’ve been running around in the woods all day, and that was only after—”
Ignoring her deftly as always, Numair swept his student up in a bear hug, lingering an extra second before letting go.

Straight smut. George and Alanna are my favorite couple and don’t get enough credit. You know they’d be kinky.

Summary
Numaír learnt a great deal on the slow way to Corus, chief among them that Alanna had a temper (that many of the songs conveniently forgot) and could be as prickly as any bur, especially in the mornings. Raoul on the other hand was so easy-going that he had you completely fooled until he started swinging around the enormous war hammer that he’d taken along as ‘insurance’.
A Numaír comes to Tortall fic. Set between Lioness Rampant and Wild Magic.
