Summary
Fic of a fic — companion piece to "figure out a window" by funki (munki), a.k.a. the HR Laurent fic which took the fandom by storm.
A collection of one-shot vignettes exploring various alternate directions that the story could have taken, such as:
What if Laurent had been better at communicating after [spoiler]? What if his sexuality worked slightly differently? What if Damen had asked before [spoiler]? What if [spoiler] had found out about [spoiler] in a different way? (Or in this other way? Or in these five different other ways?) The possibilities are simply endless!

Summary
More than a year after Sherlock Holmes's return from the dead, his cohabitation with the good Doctor has more or less returned to normal. With their daemons at their sides, Holmes and Watson are as keen a pair of crime solvers as they ever were. Deep in the winter of 1895, their limits as a team are tested when a young woman's daemon is stolen from her side and destroyed. It is not the first of such attacks, Watson learns, and he and Holmes immediately set out to find the culprit of the horrifying deed. They are led into a web of back alleys and gambling debt that leads ultimately to the heart of the government, all in the pursuit of the elusive element of Dust. But their investigation is not a secret one, and the duo's fame in the city of London brings them more trouble than expected and forces them to take some measures to protect one another that violate many a social taboo.
