    Summary

    Snapshots, mostly outsider-POV, as Will and Lyra grow up. Gaining skill and prestige in their respective fields, helping science (and/or experimental theology) march forward...oh, and learning how to communicate from one world to another.

    Works fine as a standalone fic, if you haven't read the rest of the series. And if you have, it'll fill in some gaps in the backstory.

    Summary

    Ever since Carlos was little, he and his daemon have been fans of Dr. Lyra Belacqua. Both as the most groundbreaking experimental theologian of the 20th century, and as the heroine of dozens of fantasy-adventure children's stories (based very loosely on her own mysterious childhood).

    But Lyra's true legacy is still bigger than Carlos ever imagined...until he took a team of scholars to study Rusakov particles in the most theologically interesting community in Hispania Nova. Now his own day-to-day life is full of things like angels, witches, hooded spectres, portals between worlds, vague yet menacing branches of the Magisterium, and a man who walks around without his daemon and can read an alethiometer as easily as a stop sign.

    Summary

    "Amnesia, then," and Len nods to himself.

    "That's what we figured - except, the next day you didn't remember the first day. So we figured it was some sort of memory thing, like that guy in the movie where he'd actually killed his wife himself? And then the third day you started cursing me out in really dirty Latin and didn't know how light switches worked, which is when we finally started to get half a clue."

    Summary

    “A nightclub,” Len says, widening his eyes. “Sara, can you believe that? A nightclub. Here, of all places. I’m shocked.”

     

    Response to tumblr prompt: A ColdWave story where the fact that Len is a secret Sci-Fi/Fantasy Fan is essential to a mission. Perhaps the team is trapped in a futuristic death-maze created by an individual obsessed with 20th/21st century fandoms like Doctor Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Lord of the Rings, etc - and only Len, who has an extremely detailed knowledge of said fandoms, can get them through.

    Summary

    Right now, Len is most annoyed by the fact that he leaves Mick alone for a few months (year) and his place at Mick's side is replaced, not by another partner, which he could understand and compete with (...and/or murder and hide the body somewhere), but by - this.

    It.

    Him.

    The rat.

    Summary

    As a kid, Len inherited his maternal grandfather's books. Old, valuable books. When things started getting worse, he would seek refuge among their pages, reading things meant for far older, wiser men - such as instructions on how to make a golem.

    Many years later he still hasn't found a way to tell Mick the truth...
