we'll make a home on the cracks (glowing review)
"The sun was warm on Simon’s skin, the waves of the sea a distant lullaby, the gull’s cries piercingly loud and the line in front of the ice cream shop stretching out far beyond where Simon could see, when he looked up into the smiling face of a stranger he’d likely never forget. "
Working in an ice cream parlor to earn some cash inbetween semesters has been a very responsible and mature decision, Simon knows that. But it's also been boring as hell. That changes when one day, a chance-encounter changes the course of his next twenty-four hours, and possibly his entire life. He's never been a romantic, never believed in the one true love. So, why does saying goodbye feel like dying?
Well... here I am, yet again, on a Friday, posting something. You can find the story here.

Wilhelm and Simon reunite at university after a heartbreaking departure at Hillerska. The two are forced back into each other’s lives and must navigate how to co-exist as the young men they’ve become. With such a complicated history, it seems almost impossible to untangle the mess they left behind. So why can’t they seem to stay away from each other?

It‘s late and I wanna be writing on my new wip but can’t (because real life obligations, who even invented those?🙄) so instead, have a random snippet from said wip:
Henry had suddenly gone a bit pale, his eyes wide as they flickered away from Simon and toward the opposite side of the table. Simon was about to ask if he was okay, when a clipped, “Hi,” answered the question for him. Of course, out of all the vacant seats in here, Wilhelm had chosen the one right across from them.
He did have the decency to blush a little when Simon turned to fix him with an unimpressed look. Nevertheless, his eyes met and held Simon’s as he gave him a curt nod and an equally short, “Simon.”
“Wilhelm,” Simon replied, keeping his voice coolly polite. It took some effort to continue holding their eye contact with the once again unsettling intensity of Wilhelm’s stare boring deep into Simon’s skull. He ultimately ended up forfeiting their renewed staring match thanks to Henry’s bewildered, “Wait, you guys know each other?”
His eyes had somehow grown in size yet again, flitting back and forth between the two boys. Simon’s answer came half to quench Henry’s growing panic and half to nip any rumors of him being friends with someone like Wilhelm in the bud.
“We’ve been assigned a room together.” To his satisfaction, Wilhelm grimaced the tiniest bit when Simon added, “Because everyone has to share a room here, no matter who their parents are.”
Am I excited? Maybe a little. (It’s a lot.) So yeah, enemies to lovers roommate edition. Coming at some point once life gets less crazy✌🏼

So, I'm an angst lover, but someone asked for not angsty fics, and sometimes all you need is a laugh.
Humour is different for every person, and we don't always find the same things funny, but anyway, here are some fics that make me smile, giggle and/or laugh out loud:
Favourite funny YR fics
Mechanics of the heart by @the-amber-fox
Wille's car has a flat tire. First he's mad about it, then he meets Simon, the mechanic. Wille learns a good bit about the mechanics of his own heart.
One, two, three, four, five, sex on my mind by @pagegirlintraining and @the-amber-fox
When Wille first sees Simon, the rest of the world simply fades away. Which would be romantic and all, if it didn’t lead to him blindly stumbling into the sex shop Simon works at.
open heart open mind, never know who you'll find by simonscrown
Wille deliberated whether he should be thanking the universe or cursing at it that a literal angel was standing in front of him, while his testicles were being tortured by a pair of objectively horrible booty shorts.
5 times the students of Hillerska didn't realize Wille and Simon were together + 1 time they definitely did by @piebingo
That title really says it all. And it's fun!
Copy and Pasta by @pagegirlintraining
In which Wille just wants to make a nice birthday present for his boyfriend and gets sidetracked by the flu.
Coast side universe by @starvalisedham
Angst-free stories that are loosely connected. You don't need to read everything to enjoy each fic, but it helps with understanding some of the jokes and references. Hillerska ships Wilmon but they are so done with their antics. (So much funny silliness.)
Change It And Say by Skydragon05
Henry is being a mess, while trying not to cockblock anyone.
Bathroom Stall Blowjobs by MarvellKya17 and @thehanwen
Based on true events … two bathrooms… two blowjobs… a two part story about love – and getting caught in the bathroom giving a bj.
You Have Reached the Voicemail Box of... by @zee-has-commitment-issues
Two years. They'd kept their relationship away from the Forest Ridge boys for two years. Henry and Walter have different plans for Wille and Simon, though. It involves the table, their phones, and their mothers. It's humiliating.
Stuck on me like a tattoo by TheWittyKitty
What if Simon got a tattoo? With someone's name?
Drop It Like It's Hot by @the-amber-fox
Simon proposes, Wille kind of fucks it up.
A Dutiful Welcome by @groenendaelfic
His Majesty The King of Sweden and his very male, very biracial Consort arrive in London for a state visit. YR/RWRB crossover where 'dear cousin Philip' has thoughts.
Please also share your own funny YR fics 🙏

Little Light (part 2/2)
Rated: E
Summary:
Wilhelm exhales, “Let's talk more about this in the morning.” Wilhelm rubs soothing thumbs across the back of his hands. “Please try and get some sleep.”
Simon curls forward, buries his face into the pillow. “Okay.”
“We’ll get through this, Simon.”
“Right.”
Simon brings their joined hands up to his mouth, presses a shaky kiss to the back of Wilhelm’s knuckles. Tries not to think about how it feels like something between them has broken beyond repair and how, once again, it’s all his fault.
….
Or: Wilhelm never returned to Hillerska after winter break. Ten years later, Simon watches him come out on national television. Then, they reconnect.

s3 ep6.2
The four of them fall into the house as though they are one laughing body, and Linda looks up with a start from the dining room table. Simon glances at her through his eyelashes as he’s shucking off his shoes. He is struggling to stay upright, as Wille is leaning into him heavily, wrestling with the laces of his dress shoes. Simon smiles at her softly, shyly, incredulously, and she knows the most essential thing. She feels her heart soar in her rib cage. Behind them, the girls are hanging up their bags; the chatter between them is giddy like spring birdsong. She scans the group. She’s not sure she understands how they’ve ended up here, but if she’d known, she would have bought more milk. She calculates, realizes that even if someone sleeps on the couch or she and Sara share, there aren’t enough pillows. It doesn’t matter in the slightest though. Thank god they are home now. Linda gets up out of her chair, she thinks she should make coffee, but instead, she finds herself overwhelmed, her arms full of Wille. He mumbles into her ear, “Thank you for having me, Linda.”

My first paperback that is not a script for uni lectures :D Finding a place that would print the cover was difficult. The ladies at the copy shop I went to first were extremely rude and I ended up not getting the covers done there, which is ironic since a copying machine plays a huge role in this fic. It is now glossy photo paper and because it had a kodak print on the back, I had to laminate it with some green paper.
I did the typeset and the cover design. The story is "Fuck the Monarchy" by @iwouldnevergetintofanfic. It is a Young Royals fanfic and it is free to read on AO3. It is Wilmon endgame, just in case you're anxious about season 3 ;D.

Rating: Explicit Word Count: 48k Status: 5/6 Chapters complete
“How did this even happen? Shouldn’t we be banned from even sleeping in the same building, let alone the same room?” Wilhelm helplessly asks Henry. “Well, as far as anyone is concerned, there’s no reason we shouldn’t be sharing a room,” Simon says, stepping into the conversation with an unenthused sigh. “Besides, it’s not like it was you in the video, right?” Or…. Season two never happened, and they never got back together after winter break. Wilhelm and Simon end up going to the same university, have the same group of friends, and are on the same rowing team. If Wille didn’t think life was cruel before, he certainly does now. Especially when Adam, the new team captain, takes a less-than-innocent interest in Simon Eriksson.

There’s this myth that when you knit a hair in a piece you are making, you’ll bind your soul to the receiver of the knit. Or something like that.
Wilmon AU where 15 y/o prince Wille learns to knit, curled over various projects, hair falling down in his eyes and wrists hurting from the repetitive motion. But he hates what he makes, so he gives it anonymously to a thrift shop (while he thinks it's bad he doesn't have it in himself to throw it out). Days later one Simon Eriksson, who is visiting Stockholm, buys this stripped beanie at the thrift shop because he lost his on the trip and he's cold. He wears it the rest of the trip, and starting from there he starts having weird dreams of this boy. The more they happen, the more he thinks the boy is real but he can't say anything to anyone because saying you communicate with someone else in your dreams doesn't sound very sane. He has no idea who the boy is but slowly and surely, as the months pass, he starts falling for this boy.
Fall arrive and a video of Prince Wilhelm headbutting a guy in a club makes its round on the internet. He is transfered to Hillerska, where he sees someone familiar sing a song to him on his first day. He doesn't know the boy with the pretty curls but he can't shake the feeling that he knows him inside and out.
Simon gets to know this Wille boy who's nothing like he would have imagined the younger prince to be. He's kind and funny and listens to him so intently. But Simon can't shake the feeling that it feels like he's known Wille for longer then a few weeks. He swears Wille knows some specific things about him that he hasn't told the other boy, and vice-versa.
They're both falling for each other, but Simon's heart is still stuck on that boy in his dream. A boy who hasn't come back in quite a few weeks. Wille, too, feels lonely now that his nights are quieter, that the boy in his dream disappeared, but he has Simon in his life now, making the pain lesser. Maybe the headbutting shook his head a bit too much and made the boy disappear. Slowly but surely, they both stop thinking about the boy in their dream, discovering this other boy that seem much more real.
One day, Simon arrives to school with a beanie on, one with stripes that looks oddly familiar to Wille. He walks to the lake with Simon, unable to stop looking away from that knitted beanie. Until it hits him: he made that beanie. He asks Simon where he got it, the other boy telling him that he bought it in a thrift shop in Stockholm last year. Wille tells him that he's the one who made it. That's when they both realize that the boy from their dream was one another, and that those dreams disappeared because their souls finally got reunited.
And they lived happily ever after and all that jazz ❣️
If you wanna take that idea and write it 👀 i wouldn’t mind reading it👀 let me know👀

It's the 1980s. Young Prince Wilhelm is reading a comic book and notices a page in the back titled Pen Friends. It's a listing of names, ages, addresses, and short descriptions of kids looking for pen pals. One in particular catches his eye: a boy his age in the town of Bjärstad (so close!) who is just as passionate about his favorite superhero as he is. Lonely Wille writes to the boy, Simon, using a P.O. Box that his older brother Erik had set up for his own secretive purposes. (Erik knows that Wille could use a friend, and is willing to send and receive the letters for him.) Wille uses a fake last name and doesn't tell Simon that he's a prince.
A great epistolary friendship soon blossoms. They first write about comics, tv shows, pop music, likes and dislikes; then about their families and school, worries and aspirations (Simon is very candid; Wille sometimes tells careful half-truths to shield his identity). One day Simon mentions thinking a male comic book character is good looking, and that opens up an ongoing conversation about liking boys. Simon is sure that he's gay, and has come out to a select few people in his life; Wille is not at all sure of his identity, but is bold enough to admit feelings to Simon that he's told no one else about, and is only just realizing himself.
Simon sends Wille a photo of himself, a school portrait. Wille keeps saying he'll send one soon. He keeps Simon's letters in a shoebox tucked far under his bed. He keeps his photo under his pillow at night, and always remembers to move it into his desk drawer during the day, so the maid doesn't find it.
They start to write about possibly meeting up, since they aren't too far away from one another. Maybe pizza, an arcade? Simon writes his home phone number in a P.S. in one of his letters, asks Wille to call if he wants to, so they can make a plan. Wille memorizes the number. He goes into Erik's room when he's away, sits in front of the phone (Erik has a private phone line), winds and unwinds the long spiral cord around his fingers, picks up the headset, dials most of the digits. Hangs up when his heart starts beating too fast.
One day Simon writes that he'll be going to a new school with his sister. Hillerska. A posh boarding school, but he'll be commuting from home. It's where Crown Prince Erik went! Simon doesn't want to go. He's worried about not making any friends, about not relating to the rich kids there. He wishes he could be Wille's friend. For real.
Wille writes that he's sorry he hasn't called yet. He wants to, but he's been busy, and his parents and older brother are always using the phone when he's free. He'll try again soon. And he's sure Simon will make a friend at Hillerska.
"Mamma?" Wille knocks on his mother's office door.
"Come in, Wilhelm," Queen Kristina replies.
Wilhelm enters, and sits in the seat across from his mother. She looks up from her papers. "Yes?"
"Mamma, I changed my mind. I do want to go to Hillerska."

“Eriksson… ah, yes.” The smile on her face widened a bit as she seemed to have located his name on her clipboard. “You’re in room 15 in Skogsbacken House. Ground floor. Jonas here is going to give you your lanyard and key.”
Simon accepted the items that were held out to him by the young man at her side with a polite smile. He didn’t have time to utter a proper thank you, seeing as Anna recaptured his attention with a delighted noise.
“Oh, how lovely. It seems you and your roommate can find the way together.” With that, her gaze wandered slightly past Simon, causing him to follow it and turn around.
Behind him, a duffel bag slung over his shoulder and a larger, oblong one propped up against his waist, stood a boy who was a good head taller than Simon. He was in an oversized blue t-shirt that fell loosely around his slim frame, covering a good part of the beige cargo pants underneath. What captured Simon’s attention way more than his outfit, though, was the very short, very blonde hair on the boy’s head. Bleached, for sure, went through Simon’s head, before that thought was replaced with a much more important realization.
No. Don’t tell him he’d be rooming with—”
“Wilhelm. So lovely to have you with us this year,” Anna was saying, continuing in the same cheerful tone like she wasn’t just in the middle of giving Simon the worst news ever. “You’ll be rooming with Simon here. Say hi, boys.”
The first chapter of enemies to lovers meets roommates meets music school AU is out 😍
Thanks to everyone who’s been nice enough to let me vent/gush/cry to them about this one, and especially to the ultra amazing @skibasyndrome for giving me your (in)coherent thoughts and genuine enthusiasm 💜💜💜
Hope you all enjoy ☺️

Chapter 7
“Remember that club in Stockholm?” Simon’s heart started beating more quickly as he dredged up the memories of that night. “When you disappeared all night?” Nodding, he lifted the mug to his lips to hide his face a little. “Am I about to finally find out where you were?” Lowering the mug, he swallowed and nodded again. He took a deep breath before letting the words out in a rush. “I was in Wilhelm’s hotel suite” Holding his breath, he waited for Sara’s reaction. Her eyes widened. “Wilhelm as in…?” “Yeah,” said Simon, nervously fidgeting with his mug. “That Wilhelm.” “Jesus Christ, Simon,” she said, an incredulous shake to her head. “Why?” And wasn’t that the million dollar question.
Both Simon and Wille try to get over it.
Read in AO3. Or start from the beginning.
