Summary
It’s time for an “After Dark” FanFic Writing Game where EVERYONE will contribute to the same story!
LynnyB came across a video online in which she learned that the well known “Rock, Paper, Scissors” game actually has a steamy history! It could also be called, “STRIP Rock, Paper, Scissors” a.k.a. “The loser removes a piece of clothing.”
Could there possibly be a better way to get our favorite couple nekkid? Nope.
So following Lynny’s request to add this to our “After Dark” challenge, with Francesca_C eagerly seconding the motion, we brainstormed and came up with a new writing challenge. The Rules are all listed in Chapter One along with the first chapter of the story.
STORY SUMMARY It’s Christmas Eve and E&W are spending the evening together, imbimbing lots of whisky and Petit Fours! But when Eliza asks a seemingly innocent question the night takes an abrupt, and steamy, turn! What precisly is the true meaning of ‘Rocks, Paper, Scissors’? Will William work up the nerve to tell her? Or better yet, show her?

Summary
Eliza and William are engaged, and William has been promoted to Chief Inspector. How will they juggle working cases and their relationship, especially around the holidays? What traditions will they create together as a couple?
This story was originally intended to be part of the Scarleteers Podcast Holiday FanFic Challenge and includes a Christmas tradition that Eliza and William do together. However, once again, I got a wee bit carried away with the story and, as a result, it has taken me on a longer journey than expected.
I recommend reading my other stories first to learn more about how their relationship developed before this story begins, but it is not necessary. Thanks for reading and enjoy!

This story is part of the Miss Scarlet and the Duke Podcast William in the Workhouse Writing Challenge.
Thanks for the challenge idea KallyKnits! -

Summary
This story is part of the Bump Off Betsy Challenge, and in the wise words of KallyKnits: better late than never. It started as a challenge posed to us by auntdinaner who asked whether we'd like to write a story together for the BOB Challenge, and the result is the collective efforts of auntdinaner, KallyKnits, LynnyB, PureOaknut, STM4, Bexinthecity247 and me, GrainneCarey. Seven writers, across 9 time zones (Pacific Standard Time to Greenwich Mean Time), seven parts (of approximately 200-300 words each) in each post. Can you tell who wrote which part? Let us know what you think in the comments section at the end of each post!

Who is this mystery woman, Betsy? How does she know William and why is he at her house?
This story is part of the Bump off Betsy Challenge - I got a little carried away and wrote far more than 1,000 words.

Summary
This is a continuation after my first piece "Killing the Angels." I recommend reading that first then returning to this one as I introduce new characters and events.
Private Detective Eliza Scarlet and Detective Inspector William Wellington are entering a new stage of their relationship when something unexpected happens and a person from their past re-appears, forcing them to fight for their lives. Old friends and new assist as known and unknown forces continue to threaten them. When the worst happens, Eliza must accept the inevitable and face her fears to find happiness.
Many thanks to the Scarleteers for several of the story inspirations!
