Summary

After using intense amounts of magic in Demona's disservice, all Puck wants to do is take a nap. Unfortunately, he happens to share his brain with the world's most dedicated workaholic.

Notes

As far as I see it, there's three ways to interpret Puck/Owen.
1) Puck is the actual guy, Owen is just an act/mask.
2) It's one guy, but he thinks/acts/feels slightly differently depending on whether he's Puck or Owen.
3) Puck and Owen are each alive in their own right, and have to share their body.

This fic (which I found in my old notes and edited) uses interpretation number three.

Chapter 1: A Brief Description Of Puck And Owen's Room

Feel free to ignore this chapter, it's literally just telling you what their bedroom looks like and isn't actually important.

The bedroom was a mixture of the two personalities, the one space where they each could be themselves.

 

Fantasy posters were neatly organized along grey walls, along with framed travel guides from across the world. The wide window sill was covered in plush pillows, forming a nook to read any one of many books sitting neatly on the shelves.

 

A desk was near the door, holding a computer and a small collection of snowglobes, sorted by size. A potted plant sat in the corner, and various lamps with unusual lampshades were scattered throughout the room.

 

The plain grey bed had only a thin grey blanket and a single flat, rectangular pillow. The carpet underneath was fuzzy and red, soft on one's feet. Along one wall was a white board with various very important notes held up by animal magnets.
