Summary
"What gets me is it's all so petty. And pointless. It's the silliness that's the worst, so it is."
A spectre is haunting Mu Manor, albeit one who is curiously inept at doing its job. But then a hair ornament given to Princess Mu Nihuang by her long-dead betrothed goes missing and reappears in mysterious circumstances, and the haunting acquires a dangerous political edge.

Summary
All through the three kingdoms they tell the tale the same. There was once a lord of ancient lineage and crest-fallen estate who married a lady of surpassing worth and modest dowry, who bore to him three daughters and a son. The eldest daughter was tall and proud, with hair black as a raven’s wing, skin pale as alabaster and lips like rowan-berries. The second had brown hair soft as a thrush’s back, and she had a voice sweet enough to sing the birds out of the trees. But the youngest daughter — ah, her hair shone like the brightest of chestnuts, her eyes were bluer than a kingfisher’s crown and she laughed, played and sang all day long. And those who knew her said that, poor as her fortune was, some day a prince would come riding by, and carry her off to live beside him in his palace and become the mother of kings.
For every puissant prince must be in want of a wife.

The Queen of Gondal by AJHall
Fandom: Bronte juvenilia, Cabin Pressure, Gondal - Brontë children, Life on Mars (UK), Other (mystery) fandom, Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen, Sherlock (TV)
21 Aug 2021
Summary
This is a quasi-historical AU of the BBC Sherlock series set (more or less) in three fantasy kingdoms devised by the Bronte children.
The time period is roughly the late seventeenth century and readers should bear in mind that this saga contains the doings of a set of supremely dysfunctional more-or-less European Royal families steeped in the "divine right of kings" ideology of monarchy, filtered through an early nineteenth century Romantic/Gothick sensibility and then depicted using the freedom of expression afforded by the early twenty-first century internet.
Furthermore, if the Greek myths contemplated it, some member of the Royal houses of Gondal, Angria or Gaaldine has probably put it into practice somewhere.
Gentle reader, consider yourself advised accordingly.

Summary
In the twelve years since the Chiyan case, Jingyan has made no mention of the Chiyan Fleet, Lin Shu, Prince Qi, or anyone else killed in the conspiracy. Mei Changsu has waited for that final proof while he gathered his secrets and lined up his pawns, but now he can't wait any longer: he has to know what Jingyan's true feelings are before he arrives in Jinling. So he arranges an ambush on his own ship in order to meet with him. Will Jingyan help him bring justice to his army of dead – or does he believe justice has already been served?
