Summary
Crossover Invisible Library (Genevieve Cogman) and Our Flag Means Death.
Alternate reality-hopping book thieves meet pirate rom-comKai accidentally saves Lucius from drowning and now Irene is stuck with him while she tries to steal the copy of Pinocchio that shouldn't exist.
As ever, what should be a simple mission gets complicated.“Irene!” Catherine spat, you realise what they’re going to do? Irene, we have to save them”
“Yes, I realise, Catherine, but that’s still a cohort of bloodthirsty pirates who would kill you as soon as look at you, you can’t just burst in there. I think of something, I promise”
“What, what is it?” Lucius asked anxiously, “What’s Ed doing to them?”
“He’s going to throw them all overboard!” cried Catherine, beside herself. “They’ll all be lost, those poor precious-”
“No!” wailed Lucius, “We can’t let that happen, where’s your monster thing, can it save them, like it did me?”
“The Monster Thing,” Irene explained carefully, “is Kai. he’s a dragon, his element is Water. This is just his human form, please don’t refer to his true form as a Monster, it’s rude”

Summary
'Irene carefully shut the door behind herself, sliding the bolt at the top and then the chain before locking it and leaving her key in the lock. She hung her coat up and unpinned her hat, moving slowly as she did so. She didn't turn the lights on but she knew her own home well enough that she could return home and get from the hallway and to bed with her eyes shut if she chose to do so.'

I'll Hit the Lights and You Lock the Doors by enigma731

Summary
There was still a part of Irene that wanted to apologize, that wanted to point out all of the ways she had hurt and failed him over the past few days alone. There was still a part of her that wanted to ask him if he was certain that he wanted to be with her despite everything. There was still a part of her that was insisting on detailing all of the ways she might lose him someday, all the ways that allowing herself to have this now could end up being horrifically painful.
She was going to pitch that part of herself into the sewers and then leave it in this alternate for good measure.

Summary
She gasped and sat up abruptly, Kai’s hands...or her own hands...falling off of her shoulders. Her body sat across from her, crouched in a more elegant way than she’d have thought her body capable of, and that sealed it for her. “Kai?”
"Yes," he said immediately, actually managing to sound a bit irritated despite the utterly impossible circumstances that certainly seemed to more than justify her question. "Are you all right?"
Irene decided to do what she did best in situations where she was uncertain of herself: dodge the question altogether. "You are -- in my body."
"Yes," said Kai. "And you are in mine. And I am going to murder Silver very painfully if it turns out that he isn't already dead."

Summary
Irene was reminded suddenly of observing him as they’d escaped the prison in Venice, the way he’d seemed diminished, the confidence that so defined him badly shaken. That wasn't quite how he looked now -- it was somehow both better and worse. He was working so hard to keep up appearances that he almost managed to pull it off. But she knew him well enough to see the cracks in the façade, to see how utterly exhausted he was by it, and that was a stunningly intimate thing to realize.
