    Summary

    "I remember when they locked you up," said the old Elf. "I remember when all of you were locked up. Freicur the Conqueror, who would have slayed the world, just to be Master of One."

    "Do we know one another?" asked Freicur. "Did I wrong you, in some way?"

    "All the ways, that's why they're only just releasing you. Hoping you can teach the new age what is lost. This is Dannik. He's your minder."

    "Minder? Please, Maurnig, at least use the Council-approved term." He bowed slightly to Freicur. "I am your Conservator and Apprentice."

    Freicur tried to size the elf up quickly. He was young, yes, but not very. Perhaps twenty hundred, but not more than. Stocky, yet light on his feet. He was tense and doing a good job of hiding it. A diplomat, but a fighter as well. Not a warrior, his eyes were too kind for that.

    Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”

    “None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

    Summary

    No one in their right mind would ever seriously try to woo Lin Ronghu, the Emperor's infamously ruthless (if unofficial) spymaster.

    Not that that's stopped the local legend, a (self-described) beautiful detective with peerless martial arts. His crush is a major inconvenience - at least until there's a murder that puts Lin Ronghu's most hated political nemesis straight in the frame. Since Lin Ronghu can't believe that anyone would be that stupid, he decides that maybe having a private detective around might be good for something after all...

    Summary

    When the pirate ship Aljana happens across a wreck in the depths of f-space, Captain Marouane takes it upon himself to rescue the lone survivor: a deck apprentice of the Lourguinnais merchant marine, one M. Bouchard. Bouchard is self-righteous, judgmental, argumentative—and profoundly attractive, damn him. It is far too easy to become excessively attached to him; and while he may not be a pirate, that does not mean he is not a liar, and it does not mean he is not keeping some particularly important secrets.
