Summary
It is with an exasperated sigh that I introduce you to an official thread for this guy. We've discussed it and we've decided that this is the only way we can stop you guys from derailing threads to complain about this guy. By mod decree, all Mr Fell complaining, griping, bitching, grousing, and miscellaneous butthurt now belongs in THIS THREAD AND THIS THREAD ONLY.
The forumgoers of The Codex, a forum for rare book hunters, come to some very interesting conclusions about the personal life of one Mr Fell of Soho. (Inspired by a tumblr post.)

Summary
By the time Yusuf reached their door he was nauseous with nerves. Yusuf had been too much last night, he knew it. He always was. He had scared Nicolò away with his intensity, with the depth of feeling Nicolò had no hope to match. Nicolò had ran away, despite their shared immortality, because of course he would. Who wouldn’t? Yusuf could already picture it. The empty room, only an imprint on the mattress betraying that anyone else had ever been there at all.
Yusuf and Nicolò, before they can speak the same language but after they've already fallen in love

Summary
Brother Thomas Lawrence has resigned from his position as Dean of the College of Cardinals, seeking out a quiet life in a Franciscan order to reconnect with God. But his time there is marked with nightmares and horrific visions of the Holy Father (the man he left behind, the man who still haunts his waking moments and permeates his thoughts) - and he finds himself inexorably drawn back to the Vatican.
Vincent has been calling out for him.

Summary
“James Fitzjames,” he says, thrusting his hand between them, securing the introduction before the man can wander out of his sight just as soon as he’s appeared.
“Francis Crozier.” The man shakes his hand with a firm grip. Crozier? It sounds familiar, but James cannot place it.
“What brings you to Greenhithe?” James asks. Crozier merely shakes his head.
Except its 1851, and James and Francis both feel a strange, strong sense of deja vu- Language:

Summary
In September 2018, two graduate students from the University of Chicago, studying the newly discovered wrecks of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, stumble upon a grave site containing two skeletons. Identified as a Caucasian male, approximately mid to late-30s, and a second Caucasian male, approximately late-70s, their presence on King William Island reveals that not all perished in the doomed Franklin Expedition. One man survived. And buried next to him, in a loose grave of shale and rock, rests a journal wrapped in preserved skins. This is the last will and testament of one Captain Francis Crozier, who survived. And who lived.

Summary
“It’s very nice to meet you,” said the erstwhile ice-cube. He had a warm, deep voice; unaffected by his long sleep as the rest of him. It really was spooky. Francis had looked up the daguerreotype: a rusted and pitted old thing, scanned into some museum’s system, taken nearly two centuries ago of a man who had hardly aged a day since.

Francis Crozier, a grumpy history professor, is assigned to introduce a recently unfrozen Victorian naval commander to the wonders of the modern era. Sparks fly, and all that.
