    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 If you aren’t in a place to read some outdated views from certain characters about homosexuality, non-white British races, women, and the working class, then this might not be the story for you at this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

    Achilles tilts his chin up defiantly, in an effort to stare Patroclus down. He only succeeds in looking like a petulant child. “It is considered a great honour to be a therapon to a prince, you know.”

    “Honour is meant to be earned, not handed out as if to a beggar, or a dog.”

    Achilles’ nostrils flare, his green-gold eyes gleaming dangerously. “Such scorn from someone who was training to be a common footsoldier just this morning. Many of the boys back at the yard would beg for this chance.”

    “Then you should have chosen one of them, perhaps." Patroclus glances down at the expensive chiton and his brand new arms, and hates how heavy and foreign they feel on him. “I didn’t ask for any of this.”

    The last thing Patroclus wants is to become therapon to the Prince of Phthia. He had his fill of princelings back when he lived in Opus—hell, he used to be one himself. He doesn't need some stuck-up demigod to size him up and appoint him his glorified manservant. He'd much rather pass, thank you very much.

    Achilles, however, is unlike any prince he's ever met.

    Summary

    Phthia is the land of hail and snow, and this is what they all know, but on Mount Pelion it's always spring. It's like Achilles belongs there. 'The Flame of the North' they call him, for his fire-gold hair; once he goes, Patroclus thinks, all things swift and beautiful and bright will be gone with him.

    Perhaps in another life, if Patroclus fell to his knees and begged, Achilles would take pity on him and stay, or ask him to come with him. But this is not this life. In this life, Patroclus hasn't the power to change... anything. 

    Or: Achilles is the young Prince of Phthia, Patroclus is his squire, in a story where they come together, come apart, then find each other all over again.

    Summary

    “I’m serious," Jin Ling presses. "You think Lanling Jin can survive another scandal? Another horrible sect leader? I have to be perfect! That’s what this entire conference is about!”

    “I thought it was about fostering inter-sect harmony,” Lan Jingyi deadpans, which, damnably, is a direct line from the invitation.

    A year after the fall of Jin Guangyao, Jinlintai opens its doors to prove there is nothing to hide. Jin Ling is just trying to survive the week.

    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.)

    Summary

    There was, indeed, a person. Aether stared in horror and wonder at the young man inside the coffin. (It was a coffin; it must have been, given what it contained.) The body looked perfectly preserved. There were no signs of decay or dryness. His clothes were immaculate. It was as if the man was merely sleeping.

    “Let's leave,” Paimon said, tugging on Aether's scarf.

    “Wait.” Aether leaned over the coffin's edge. This wasn’t normal. This place, the ice, this man… Aether didn’t understand, but he wanted to.

    Aether, a fallen star looking for his lost sister, awakens a sleeper in a frozen ruin.

    Shouto knows that the appropriate thing to do now is to pull his head out of the cupboard, stand up, and explain to Bakugou that he’s looking for the first aid kit. He also knows that if he does that, Bakugou will most likely let go of his hand. And – he doesn’t want that.

    OR

    Todoroki gets hit with a quirk that makes him sick unless a particular person is touching him. And that particular person just happens to be Bakugou Katsuki.

    Summary

    “Are you unwell?” Albedo asks in concern, blissfully oblivious to Aether’s agony, his internal struggle; the losing battle with the unseen beast, demanding to be let loose. “Should we retire for the night? I can take you to bed.”

    I can take you to bed.

    Aether winces at the proposal, pressing his head into the caring palm, boldly nosing into it to take in the feeling of closeness. A sickening need paralyzes his lungs, hurting the Traveler deeply.

    He would love for Albedo to take him to bed.


    Albedo visits Aether's teapot abode for the very first time.

    Summary

    The Kingdom of Light and Wind isn't particularly known for having perfect peace, for its news, or for anything remarkable really. Even the Prince and Princess are bored by the steady pace, to either the amusement or worry of the knights they surround themselves with. If anything truly interesting happens, it always stems from the lack of proper documentation and investigation done in the most important of court cases. Surely the ambassadors of the neighboring country of Liyue would cry if they saw the sorry state of their justice department.

    Until a new Captain joins the Kingdom's ranks out of the blue, a perfect little solution to a long-existing problem. And for better or worse, Aether can't keep his mind off of him.
