Actual tropes: Birds of a Feather, Love at First Sight, Outlaw Couple, idk what else. They're very similar but also incredibly different in ways that make them work to be more complete people in their own right. It's pretty nuanced. Hard to pin down like that.

Passionate, devoted, besotted. They'd raze the world to the ground for each other.*
*Actually, they *say* that, but they both know the other would die for their world, so they'd *save* the world for each other.
Viago, on the other hand, *would* raze the world to the ground for his little Amelia.

Tagging is always my least favorite part of posting fics so uhhh- older man/younger woman, do-over, reunited and it feels so good, emotional hurt/comfort, explicit sexual content, light dom/sub, protectiveness, honesty, & they love each other very much your honor. Or something.
