The sun rose over the Hong Kong bay and filtered through the window on which rolled some droplets of rain from the night. Newt rolled over lazily, sighing, as he felt the sunbeams on his bare thighs.The room was already getting warmer.
“Morning babe… You awake…?” he whispered, putting an arm on Hermann’s side.
“Now I am…” he whispered in a husky voice. “Please, five more minutes…”
Hermann wasn’t a morning person.

I spent so much time on this thing it’s insane, like, I started at about 6 in the afternoon and finished at 2 in the morning??? At first I only wanted to work anatomy (╥﹏╥) when this this happen…
i got all ur song prompts but i hope its ok that i went with this one!! i love hermann realizing he’s in looove
It’s not the realization itself that distresses Hermann. He’s always figured something like this was bound to happen eventually, after all; Newton is his oldest friend, as well as his oldest rival, and they spend every waking moment together. And Newton isn’t exactly bad-looking. It’s simply the manner in which the realization comes to him. Hermann could’ve stomached Newton winning him over with some grand noble gesture–perhaps Hermann slips and falls from his ladder and Newton catches him, or Hermann forgets his coat in the lab one day and is cold and Newton insists Hermann take his leather jacket. He could’ve stomached catching sight of Newton in sweatpants looking soft and sleepy in the morning, or becoming distracted by Newton’s laughter, but of course it isn’t any of those things.
Hermann realizes he’s in love with Newton when Newton goes off on a tirade about processed snack food, of all things.
AND THERE IT IS. Yeah Hermann has a tramp stamp and I find it SO funny. Thanks so much for reading I hope it made you laugh 🙂 expect more from this AU! Here are a few links where you can support/commission me ! I’d love it if y’all checked out my commission page!

The invasion of the Anteverse was successful, and the Precursors have been destroyed, but Newt still hasn’t awoken from his coma and doesn’t respond initially to Drift attempts from Hermann to wake him.
But when one day a connection is established, Hermann and Newt find themselves in a mingled mindscape that seems informed by Dante’s “Inferno”. Together, they pass through the Nine Circles, nine memories of Newt’s years under Precursor control in the hopes it will help free Newt from his own head.
Yet questions linger: how much did the Precursors take from Newt, to what lengths will Hermann go to free him, and is the other even truly there, or merely a rabbit of the other’s making, a wish fulfillment fantasy that they’re chasing into the abyss?
— Oh my GOD I can’t believe the rewrite is finally finished. Thank you all for your patience. If you’ve set up for the subscription alert, you’ll know I actually posted this in the middle of the night because I was so desperate to get it out there but I wanted to do one more cleanup pass before I posted the chapter alert here. I hope you enjoy!
