    Summary

    The year is 1942 and after more than a century of relative peace, Europe has been thrown into war once again. As Britain begins to enter the conflict, Temeraire finds himself in the middle of dozens of people, offices, and even governments that wish to solicit his advice on how to best end this war before it consumes the world. However, he feels overwhelmed by this responsibility and wants nothing more than to retire from the public eye even as he knows that's not truly an option.
    It was a average autumn day when Temeraire took some time to visit the resting spot of his dearly departed companion. And it was at this time, when Temeraire wished for nothing more than to have his steady guidance once more in his life, that the impossible happened.
    A miracle made flesh.
    William Laurence has been brought back from the dead; just as Britain, and Temeraire, needs him the most.

    Summary

    Accepting a housemate recommendation from his friend who was almost definitely a spy wasn't the best idea John Granby ever had. In his defense, though, he had a pyromaniac eight year old to wrangle, which took up about half of his brain capacity on a good day.

    Summary

    “Gentleman, rather than the best of our front line aerial corps, and subject our dear Sapa Inca to a loveless marriage, can we not offer her the best opportunity at love and a prodigious match by extending her a tour of the London season?” Alice Pemberton looked around at the table, as comprehension dawned on more than one face. “Would she not be the flower of the ton?-“

    ———
    Anahuarque decides to have a London season rather than marry Napoleon, so the Incans, the Tswana, unmarried Portuguese royalty, Lord Bayan, and His Majesty’s Aerial Corps descend on London, Bridgerton Style.

    Summary

    It was starting to make sense why the Admiralty had left so many details out, they were raiding a mansion near London because it had apparently been taken over by "belligerents".

    Of course that was no longer the case once he had been... killed? knocked out? He wasn't sure but he had known something definitely went wrong when he had been reincarnated as a dragon and one of the men in odd uniforms surrounding him had said the year was "2017". How wonderful.

     

    This fanfic seeks to provide a possible interpretation of what Temeraires alternate reality would be like after the main events of the books in the 21st Century.

    Summary

    When the crew of the Reliant captures the Amitie and the dragon egg it carries, Captain Will Laurence is set ill-at-ease—not because he is unfamiliar with dragons, but rather the opposite. For, over a decade ago following an injury aboard the Shorewise, he discovered he bore a curse, one that would cause him to awake from his dreams as something other than human, if ever his attentiveness slipped. He was a weredragon.

    But then the hatchling Temeraire chooses him as his Captain, and the course of his life is forever altered, to become an aviator of His Majesty's Aerial Corps...at least by day. By night, the question of his nature remains quite up in the air.

    Summary

    Laurence and Captain Little tarried on the steps. Guests lingered excitably in all their finery, exchanging testimony and conjecture; not yet desiring to depart the scene of such catastrophe.

    It then began to rain.

    Little cleared his throat, voice raised to be heard in the ensuing panic, “I share a private room nearby for painting and the like. If you desire, we may remove there and send a note to the clearing.”

    Summary

    When I received my assignment I just so happened to be on my annual trip to the water park. So of course, I had to put the babies on a water slide.

    Lily couldn’t care less for the water slide. However, she is enjoying pushing Maximus down against his will.
    Maximus won’t admit it out loud, but he is terrified no matter how many times he is forced down the slide by the others.
    Temeraire really enjoys the wave pool and would rather be there instead.
    Iskerkia couldn’t be having a better time if the entire world was on fire.

    Summary

    When, during their desperate flight from Scotland to France with the cure to the dragon plague, Laurence and Temeraire encounter an English patrol hellbent on stopping their mission, Laurence finds himself near mortally wounded and his return to England thus necessarily delayed. The ripple effects of this extended stay in France will be far beyond what he, or his eager hosts, could have anticipated.

    Summary

    His Majesty's Aerial Corps holds many secrets, but none are more closely guarded than the Plague and the Change. A century ago, amidst the War of the Spanish Succession, disease ravaged the British Isles, bringing about the death of a majority of dragons—a tragedy of the highest order kept hidden from the public eye. Even those that survived were left unable to fight or breed new offspring. After the Plague, all that was left to carry forward to future generations were the surviving eggs yet unhatched and a single healthy formation kept away in isolation. But these were insufficient in number to make a sustainable population, and besides, there was the more urgent problem that England was still at war and still needed her dragons. The alchemist Sir Issac Newton approached the Corps, however, and proposed a solution, one that won them the war and one that is still carried forward to this day: the Change. Dragons need not be hatched, when they can be made.

    Captain Will Laurence, of His Majesty's Navy, knows none of this when the hatchling Temeraire chooses him as his companion. But to Loch Laggan they have been sent, and to Loch Laggan they must go, unaware that some people go there not to train, but to become dragons.

    Summary

    Temeraire is dead.

    Temeraire is dead, and Laurence’s reason for living along with him. He stumbles on, day by day, conscious of the concern of his friends and family, yet unable to care.

    Until an unexpected letter leads Laurence to something even more unexpected still: a child.

    What a Chinese orphan is doing on the streets of Edinburgh is anyone’s guess, including the orphan's. Tharkay, for his part, suspects foul play. Laurence can see all that is sensible in the man’s suspicions, yet once again he cannot bring himself to care. Not when the child reminds him so very strongly of that which he’s lost.

    But the thing was, the damned crux of the matter, was that Laurence wouldn’t stop touching Granby.

    Scenes that happen (mostly) off-page, from Granby's perspective, as he falls in love with William Laurence.

    Summary

    Local dragons run an experiment called: Dragon See, Dragon Do (only not everything their humans do is fit for their attempts)

    OR: Granby and Little are just trying to find their place in a post-war world. In the background (and don't think too hard about this), Temeraire and Iskierka run some experiments, try to get along as best they can, and accidentally introduce their humans to the concept of polyamory. Also, Immortalis is there too, but he's much more dignified about this whole mess.

    Summary

    Laurence flipped through the packet of letters, pausing as he spotted the direction made out in one familiar, scrawling hand. This was unlooked-for; he was not owed a letter, for it was his turn to write. He hoped it was not more bad news.

    He would take it up to the pavilion and open it with Temeraire, he decided.

    A sequel to The pearl.
