Title: East of the Sun and West of the Moon
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Ensemble
Summary: Of fairy tales and happy endings.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium (5053 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: I wanted to give this fic a more generic fairy tale title, but this was the one it wanted. Also, I have no idea how old Eggsy's sister is supposed to be at the end of the movie, so I may be taking serious liberties with her maturity level in this fic. Call it an AU? Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Eggsy thought that if in the story the good fairy told the princess-who-wasn't-always-a-princess that she could have the fine house and the steady income from the awesome job, but she couldn’t have him because he got himself shot in fucking Kentucky, no one would like it very much.

Eggsy could walk the world with no shoes on a thousand times over and it wouldn’t bring Harry back, because fairy tales weren’t real.

Title: So Fair a Gift
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Roxy Morton
Summary: Eggsy is getting a little tired of waiting for a certain someone to introduce himself.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (2,675 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: This is a short AU I wrote a while ago and then forgot about. It's (loosely) based on a prompt from this post: “I am a ballet dancer and I see you every time I perform in the first row and there are flowers in my room every time I perform when will you finally introduce yourself” AU. I've done a lot of theater but very little dance, so I may be making some incorrect assumptions. The title is from, "Your soul is a beautiful thing, child. No emperor received so fair a gift. The angels wept to-night” from Phantom of the Opera, because of course I went there. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: It had been a couple of weeks- all right, three weeks and a day- since Eggsy saw the man first. Eggsy didn’t often look at the audience- it was distracting and unprofessional- but on that particular night Eggsy just happened to glance over and there he was, sitting in the front row with this incredibly intense look on his face. He was well fit, wearing a tuxedo that hugged his broad shoulders and surprisingly slim waist just as tightly as Eggsy would rather like to, with faintly greying hair and these dark, dark eyes.

Title: Snowbound
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Merlin, Original Characters
Summary: Considering how many times Harry has almost died in the field, it would be silly to call this his worst mission. It rather feels like it is, though.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium (6,033 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “Wouldn’t it be easier if I was-” Eggsy cleared his throat again- “Harry’s- you know- his date?” Eggsy’s cheeks reddened slightly, but he held his chin high.

Harry opened his mouth to protest, but before he could get anything out Merlin said, “Very good, Eggsy. You’re exactly right. Those are precisely the covers I’ve built for you.” He held out files to both of them. “Happy reading.”

Title: Until I Saw Your Face
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Ensemble
Summary: Harry just needs somewhere to lay low and patch himself up. He isn't expecting to meet someone who fascinates him, or to run into that someone again and again.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Very Long (103,322 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Prostitution, canon-typical violence, minor character death, light dom/sub and bondage (this fic is not at all as a kinky as that makes it sound); written as an H/C bingo straight line extra for "disappearing", "secret allies", "wild card" (prostitution), "fighting" and "touch-starved"; not Brit-picked. (Or very well researched. Sorry.)
Excerpt: Harry offered the first figure that came into his head. Judging from the way the boy's eyes widened, it was far too high.

He said, “I know a place,” a little too quickly. “Let me just…” He took out his phone and fired off several texts in quick succession. “One of my stepdad’s mates works in a- a hotel real close to here.” From his stutter, Harry guessed that it wasn’t a very high class establishment- but then if Harry had wanted high class he would have sought it out himself. Somewhere where they had seen everything, where they looked the other way without question- that was what Harry needed at the moment, and his knowledge of such areas in London was unfortunately lacking.

Title: Through the Years
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Ensemble
Summary: Across three Christmases.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium (4,910 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: I suspect this doesn't completely work with the timeline of the movie, so I guess just think of it as slightly AU? Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Merlin didn’t let Eggsy into Harry’s room very often. Eggsy wasn’t sure if it was actually because he wanted Eggsy to concentrate on the trials- which would probably make Merlin the only person who thought Eggsy was going to last long enough for it to matter- or if he just didn’t want to encourage the stupid school kid crush he clearly knew Eggsy had on Harry.

See, Eggsy knew it was stupid. He didn’t even understand it most of the time, just why he had walked out of that police station, took one look at Harry- twice his age, all perfectly put together and posh- and thought yes please.

Other times, Eggsy remembered seeing Harry plow through Dean’s boys like one of his most secret fantasies made flesh. He remembered hearing Harry’s voice come out of nowhere like the voice of God and save him from Dean. He remembered feeling Harry's heat and inhaling his expensive cologne as Harry settled at his side and said he had potential and he- for the first time in a long time- believed it. Those times, Eggsy thought of course you’ve got a crush on him, bruv.

Title: Hope and Good Intentions
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Ensemble
Summary: Harry Hart just sold his soul to a demon in a snapback.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Very Long (33,844 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Casual sex, soul selling, smoking. Written as an H/C bingo cross-square extra for "wild card" (deals with demons) and "tyranny/rebellion". Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: "Hope ain't ever foolish," Eggsy said.

The seriousness in his expression as he said it made him look old. It made him look like something else- and Harry wondered why exactly hope was so important to him. Perhaps, Harry thought, it wasn’t good intentions that the road to hell was paved with but hope. After all, hope was why Harry was here, clinging desperately to the notion that he might not have to play the terrible hand he had been dealt after all. That a miracle- or in this case something significantly less holy- would come along and make everything all right. Harry knew perfectly well that the world didn’t work like that.

Except maybe it did, because Eggsy’s lips pulled up into a now-familiar smirk and he said, “I’m gonna fix all this up nice for you, Harry. You'll see.”

Title: Ghosts
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart
Summary: Eggsy shows up at Harry's house.
Rating: G
Length: Very Short (836 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Happy Halloween! This was inspired by a "there's a ghost in my house can I stay with you" prompt that I can't seem to find now. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “I think my house is haunted,” was the first thing Eggsy said when Harry opened the door.

Title: One In a Thousand
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Dagonet
Summary: A year from the day they met, Eggsy decides to do something special for Harry.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium (6.724 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Not Brit-picked. Also I'm a little bit sick, but hopefully my editing job was sufficient anyway. Part of my Heart and Understanding series.
Excerpt: Eggsy could hardly blame Harry for not realizing back then how important the day they met would eventually be, and- again- keeping track of time wasn’t Harry’s strong suit.

Harry’s strong suit, as far as Eggsy could tell, was being really good to Eggsy. Eggsy had come around, for the most part, to the idea that he deserved it, but he still wanted to… not pay Harry back exactly, but do the same. Harry had told Eggsy enough times how happy Eggsy made him already, just by being himself, that Eggsy believed that too- but he still wanted to do something to show Harry how special he was once in a while, and today seemed like the perfect place to start.

Title: Healing
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart
Summary: Eggsy has a system for when he gets injured in the field. Today it's gone a little bit... awry.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (4,006 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: References to past abuse. I'm sure this plot has been done before, but hopefully I put an interesting spin on it. Written as an H/C bingo cross-square extra for "wild card" (hiding an injury or illness) and "touch-starved". Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Eggsy was a spy; it was his job to get in and get out without starting anything with anyone, and unlike Harry he was actually pretty good at that. It was rare that Eggsy got into a real fight in the field, and rarer still that he ended up seriously hurt- but it did happen. The first few times it happened, he’d told his mother that he’d been in a minor car crash, then a mugging, and then- as he started scraping the bottom of the excuse barrel- he had caught himself actually thinking about telling her that he’d run into a door or tripped down the stairs.

That was when he realized he had a problem.

Title: Quiet
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Michelle Unwin + Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Daisy Unwin
Summary: Michelle still isn't quite sure what to make of Harry.
Rating: PG
Length: Short (1,381 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: References to past abuse. This fills the "accidents" square for my H/C bingo. I wasn't really planning to write this, but the prompt inspired me and it did fill in some blanks, so here it is. Part of my Heart and Understanding series. The next installment will be more Harry/Eggsy-centric (probably). Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Even giving him the benefit of the doubt, Michelle didn't always know how she felt about Harry- this young man who she could have sworn was older, this she-didn’t-even-know-what who had turned her son’s life upside down in- it seemed- all the best possible ways. Looking at him in his perfectly tailored suit, and listening to his unfailingly crisp annunciation, Michelle would never have expected someone like Harry to be as good for Eggsy as he was without there being some kind of catch. But, like with the windfalls that had brought her this new house and this new life, Michelle was starting- slowly- to believe that maybe there was no catch.

Title: The Wind In the Dark
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Merlin, Amelia, Original Characters
Summary: Sequel to Enough To Live On, or five ways having an undead Arthur comes in handy (and one way Harry is really a lot of trouble).
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium (6,145 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: This fills the "haunted" square for my H/C bingo, because the first thing that prompt made me want to write was a sequel to Enough to Live On. I’m not sure whether or not the Canonical Character Death tag is still applicable, but this is a sequel so it’s canonical to the series. Now, I call this a series, but I decided not to create one here because I’m not planning any other installments (though I may change my mind about that in the future). Since I remember some people not being too into the sex scene last time, fair warning: I open one in media res in this story. The title comes from "Enough To Go By" by Vienna Teng just like the previous story. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “I miss being invisible,” Harry told Eggsy.

“No you don’t,” Eggsy returned immediately.

“I definitely do.” At the very least, Harry missed being unable to go far from Eggsy’s side. It had been frustrating- even painful- at the time, but it was much worse being so far from him now. Eggsy’s voice through the glasses was no substitute for Eggsy himself. “If I still was, you’d have to be here talking to these idiots with me.”

Title: Out of the Cold
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Merlin
Summary: A mission gone wrong.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (2,744 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Yep, I wrote trudging through snow angst in the middle of summer. The title is from "Keep Me Warm" by The Little Estate feat. Erin Bowman, which I found by googling word combinations- but it's actually a very nice song to listen to while looking at gingerbread recipes and pining for winter like I've been doing. This fills my H/C bingo "near death experiences" square. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “I know you don’t want to start talking like this,” Harry said. “But we have to think practically. I’m slowing you down.” The snow was thick and Eggsy would have been having trouble walking through it even without Harry draped over his shoulders. And at his age- and Harry so hated thoughts that began with ‘at his age’, but again practicality had to win out- Harry just couldn’t handle the cold or the exertion as well as he once did, and that was without the twisted ankle and cracked ribs.

Title: None But You
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Michelle Unwin, Daisy Unwin, Original Characters
Summary: Sequel to No Charm Equal, in which there are overdue conversations and unexpected revelations.
Rating: PG-13
Length: 4,106 words
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: A “No Charm Equal” follow up where Harry meets Michelle was always in popular demand (and I feel like this isn't the version of it that anyone was hoping for, sorry), but what really prompted this fic was a reader who asked for that and also Eggsy getting jealous when someone flirted with Harry. It made me decide that there were a couple of things I still needed to address, so hopefully the angst here won’t feel like drama for drama’s sake (and of course there’s a happy ending). The title is from Persuasion- "I have loved none but you." The context there isn't the best fit, but I wanted to keep to the Austen theme. This also fills my H/C bingo "hugs" square.
Excerpt: Harry and Eggsy had ultimately decided that Eggsy should tell his mother that he and Harry had only recently made things official between them, which despite their long acquaintance was technically the truth. It wasn't a truth that made Harry look very good, but he knew he deserved that. After all, it was his own fault that nothing had happened between them earlier. Eggsy wouldn’t soon let Harry live down how long it had taken him to see that Eggsy was in love with him, and Merlin and the rest of Harry’s fellow cupids wouldn’t soon let him live down how long it had taken him to see that he was in love with Eggsy.

Title: In Time
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Harry Hart + Merlin, Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Roxy Morton, Original Characters
Summary: Just a few of the so-many-more-than-five times Merlin told Harry he was late (and one time Harry actually wasn’t).
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium (6,188 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: As I was working on this I kept getting weirdly sure that it had been done before. I’m not sure if that’s true or not, but if it has been I haven’t read the fic, so hopefully I’m bringing something new to the table. Also, I feel like I should mention that though this is from Merlin’s POV it’s really a story about Harry in a lot of respects. If that’s going to bother you, maybe steer clear? Finally, I think this is going to fill my H/C bingo "wild card" square (survivor's guilt). As such, even though nobody dies on screen, the fallout of characters dying (Lee, James, an OC) is pretty central to the story. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “You’re late, Galahad.”

“Fashionably,” Galahad said as he took a glass of champagne from a passing waiter. Given how aggravating he found almost everything about Galahad, Merlin still didn’t know why Morgana had asked him to do this. Or, rather, he knew exactly why- Morgana probably thought this was the beginning of a beautiful friendship- but that didn’t mean she was right.

Title: A Pocket Full of Soul
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Daisy
Summary: Eggsy has something to ask Harry.
Rating: G
Length: Very short (584 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: The Kingsman sequel will be out a year from yesterday, so I thought I'd post a little something in honor of that. I'm not really sure how much of a time skip from the end of the movie is required for Eggsy's sister to be this articulate, so I'm leaving that as open as possible. The title comes from "Mirrors" by Justin Timberlake. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Eggsy scowled at his reflection, finding fault with everything about it. He was wearing his best suit, sure- but his hair was askew, his cheeks were flushed, and no matter what he tried he couldn’t get it to sound quite… right.

Title: The Courtship of Harry Hart
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Roxy Morton, Michelle Unwin
Summary: Eggsy decides to woo Harry- which turns out to be more complicated than it seems.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium (8,608 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Titles are officially the bane of my existence, I'm telling you. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “If I liked somebody back in the day,” Eggsy explained, “I’d know exactly what to do about it. But everything’s different here and I… well, I gotta make sure H- well, the person that I like- knows how serious I am about this. Everything’s gotta be perfect, you know?”

Roxy blinked at him. “Eggsy,” she said slowly. “Is this about Harry?”

Eggsy felt himself flushing. He knew he had to be prepared for this reaction from people. He knew what he was like and what Harry was like and that everyone was going to think it was some kind of joke, Eggsy actually thinking he had a shot with Harry. And it wasn’t like Eggsy didn’t also know that there was a good chance of Harry turning him down flat- but he was hoping that if he did everything right Harry would at least let him try.

Title: Today and Every Day
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Roxy Morton
Summary: Eggsy is planning to ask Harry to marry him. The question is- how?
Rating: R
Length: Medium (5,139 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: The title is from "Marry Me" by Train and is the result of me really scraping the bottom of the title barrel. When I looked up the lyrics there was some confusion as to whether the line was "every day" or "everyday" but the former is the one that makes the most sense to me, so it's what I'm going with. There's a reference to Eggsy and his mother's past with Dean here which is vague enough that I don't think it warrants a "past abuse" tag, but if you prefer not to think about any of that, know that it's there. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: All of the proposal ideas that Eggsy had had since his conversation with Roxy- ranging from just asking over dinner in a quiet booth at Harry’s favorite restaurant to sky writing- all seemed like either too little or too much, sometimes both at the same time.

Title: Wind to Fire
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Michelle Unwin, Merlin, Roxy Morton, Original Characters
Summary: The year after V-Day.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Long (18,177 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: The title comes from the quote “Absence is to love as wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small and kindles the great" by Roger de Bussy-Rabutin, which I know has been done before if not in this fandom, but it just fit so well here. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: The week Eggsy became Galahad was characterized by a lot of kicking Dean’s arse until he finally got the message, moving his and his mum and sister’s stuff into Harry’s place and moving Harry’s things up to the attic, and trying to work out his place in Kingsman when the world wasn’t ending.

Eggsy spent a lot of that time thinking about the little things he’d say to Harry if he could.

Title: Love Potion No. 9
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Roxy Morton, Merlin, Original Characters
Summary: A lab accident has some unexpected side effects.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Medium (12,618 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: This is based on a branch of the sex pollen genre I've seen before in other fandoms and wanted to explore with Hartwin. Re: the title, in the movie “Love Potion #9”, No. 8 makes anyone who uses it irresistible while No. 9 is later used to reveal real love. I haven’t seen the movie, but it’s an excuse for my inability to come up with any other title for this story, since the more famous song is pretty unrelated. Finally, there’s a bit in here where Harry and Eggsy play five card draw as I was taught to play it. I don’t know if that’s the most realistic choice, but there you go. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: “Look, Harry, if you wanted to go after people for hitting on me today you’d get tired real fast because since then basically everybody has." Except you, Eggsy didn’t add, because that was the most wonderful, horrible, baffling part. Harry hadn’t.

On AO3

Title: Interruptions
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart, Original Characters
Summary: Eggsy really hates Harry’s candidate for Tristan. He feels it’s justified.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (3,042 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: I got this idea quite a while ago, when I saw an imagine-your-OTP style prompt where character A gets stood up and character B pretends to have been their date (I haven’t been able to track down the actual post since then), and immediately after that also saw some speculation about how Eggsy would probably feel about Harry’s next candidate, but I only recently actually got it off the ground. Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Just when Eggsy let himself think that he might get through this without being asked any awkward questions, Harry said- very casually- “Am I right in supposing that your being here instead of George means that you chose to come here directly instead of simply telling him that he’d forgotten he had plans with me? And you came here very directly at that- ten minutes, Eggsy?”

“It was good exercise.” Eggsy lifted his menu to hide his face- and his blush- from Harry. “And I thought about it, but nah. I ain’t giving George that kind of help, am I?”
