Summary
“Well. I’ll pick the story, then.” Ellwood drew Gaunt’s head down into the crook of his shoulder, rearranging them until they were comfortably tangled together, warm bare skin against warm bare skin. “And then you tell it, exactly as you remember it.”
A New Year’s story, then and now.

Summary
“We… found you out by Lake Franklin, on the rocks,” Goodsir began, halting. “Sprawled there, all but dying. Your body was shutting down. None of us knew who put you there or why you might have arrived. Dr McDonald and I have been working to stabilise you.”
“McDonald,” James repeated. Once more, his judgement of the situation veered toward his own afterlife - - McDonald had died during the Carnivale fire. “I - I died, then? This is - Hell, or Heaven, or some such afterlife?”
Goodsir stared at him.
“I don’t quite think so, sir,” he said. “As I said, this town - it’s for… er, unworldly things, I should suppose you might say. Things that might make men uncomfortable, should they know they roomed with us. It’s safer for us here, out of the way.”
or: Life after death is not a foreign concept to James - but he'd not been expecting this. Struck with the knowledge he's been placed into a different time, James finds himself unable to escape the Expedition in a new way - each face he meets in town is one he greeted on the ships in 1845, and some of them seem awfully interested in seeing history repeat itself.

Summary
You want him to keep you, shame whispered when it reached his ear, making Thomas purse his lips and suppress a shudder as his fingers curled around the tea canister he had stored up top earlier that morning. You want him to keep you, and that is a far more terrible thing.
It is shameful fantasy and nothing but to desire Edward Little the way he does. Thomas, more fool him, will take that secret to his grave.

Summary
"James had died knowing that his heart, the core of his very being that no biographer would ever know, would carry on in Francis Crozier. Would be protected, cherished even, because Francis deemed him worthy of such care.
Oh, how he had loved Francis then. He had been at peace with this being his last living thought.
It’s his only thought now. In this undead life, his love has nowhere to go."

Edward's hands traced up the tight thighs straddled over him, to the joint of his hips where a well-fitted waistcoat hugged a familiar, lean abdomen. He knew his lover’s waist.

Summary
"I didn’t want to pressure you into anything.”
“You couldn’t. I wanted to fuck you at work last week. Got really mad at myself for being unprofessional.”
“When?” Ned felt it was unfair that this was the first he was hearing of it.
“The day you babysat Aurora, obviously.”
“But that was before…”
”Before I’d even asked you out? I’m aware.” Tom said dryly.- Language:

Summary
Edward Little gains his hope and confidence back. The hard way.
"You despise me," he mouths, the words barely there.
Henry tilts his head slightly, eyes soft with something unreadable. "I don’t," he whispers. His body leans forward, just the smallest bit. Their eyes meet, but Edward can’t hold the gaze. "I don’t." Henry repeats.
Edward is burning, nausea rising with it. He’s painfully aware of himself, of the prick still pressing against his trousers. Why, then?
"Do you love someone?"
He almost says someone else, as if making it worse was possible.Is it Hodgson, with his perfect fucking French and sharp wit? That fresh lieutenant Clark, with clear blue eyes and endless supply of whiskey? Someone from home? Someone untouched by all of this?
Henry meets his gaze, steady and quiet. "Everyone I love is dead."
Somehow, that cuts deeper. With the dead, he cannot compete.
