    Summary

    After The Professor was exhumed and the truth laid bare, Kazuma Asogi and Barok Van Zieks are left to deal with the consequences. Making the choice to remain in London and face his proverbial demons, events cause Kazuma and Barok’s lives to become increasingly, inexorably tied. Traumas are faced and secrets are revealed, all against the backdrop of one of the most chilling cases to ever haunt the East End of London, which they and detective-in-training Gina Lestrade are fighting to solve.

    Trigger Warning for historical authenticity: This is a piece that does its best to be authentic to the period; this means you can expect Victorian attitudes to sexuality, race, drugs, and so on. If you aren’t in a place to read some outdated views from certain characters about homosexuality, non-white British races, women, and the working class, then this might not be the story for you at this time. I’ve done my utmost to handle things respectfully, but I also don’t wish to unnecessarily upset people who were just looking for a fun time without the problematic time period accuracy.

    Summary

    Boothill’s barely fixin’ to hire the unreasonably pretty, likely useless-for-ranchwork Argenti as a ranch hand, and he sure as heck ain’t lookin’ to get tangled up in some kinda fancy love story where the rancher falls head over spurs for his chivalrous tagalong.

    Too bad fate’s got a whole ‘nother trail mapped out for him: one filled with ranchin’, takin’ back his town from the low-down IPC, and fallin’ a tiny bit in love.

    Summary

    There’s a specific patch of curls behind Enjolras’s left ear that, when pulled with just the right amount of force, never fails to make him keen. Grantaire can find that spot in the dark with his eyes closed. As for where Enjolras keeps his mugs, well. 

    It’s not like he’s ever been invited to stay for drinks.

    Summary

    It is a weird thing to wake up and realise that for the first time in 800 years, you are no longer in love. Hua Cheng felt it even before he opened his eyes, could taste it in the back of his throat. Even the air around him felt different: stale, and with a strange odour to it. With his eyes still closed, he took stock of his other mental facilities, and it all came back in order, except—

     

    Except that for the first time in 800 years, he thinks of Xie Lian and feels nothing.

     

    (in which Hua Cheng's devotion gets stolen, and no one is happy about it.)
