Summary
There are stranger worlds than ours out along the Ghost Roads. In this one, Bob Howard lived a very familiar life: He joined the Laundry, fell in love, and became something other than human. He even ended up on Newsnight.
But in this world every continent is habitable, and another race of hominids rubs shoulders with humans and elves and Deep Ones. The Tsalal of Antarctica build their pariah empires in the southern hemisphere, and Britain bears the generational scars of its ruinous wars against them. Their added population has weakened reality to breaking point and CASE NIGHTMARE GREEN approaches all the faster; so fast, in fact, that the world should have ended already.
So on the eve of destruction Bob is sent to find out why not. Down to the South Pole, to the decadent and depraved Kingdom of Vos; land of blood-drinking torture surgeons and mad yellow priests. He will meet Flayermen and Ghost Eaters, scarred living war relics, men who make use of the dead and worse monsters still. And some of them will be on his own side.
Chapter 2: Goodbye Sunshine
We finish the prologue, then head back in time to join Bob in a London park.

Summary
While Alex and Cassie are treated better than the rest of the Host, a prison camp on Dartmoor isn't exactly the greatest place to pursue a blossoming romance. Nonetheless, they do their best.
A collection of mostly standalone chapters, ranging from cute and romantic to angsty and mildly horrific; subject matter includes sweet post-prison date ideas, the child-rearing habits of ruthless magical dystopias, the difficulties of using cheap plastic fangs when pretending to be a Bride of Dracula in the bedroom, and the implications of the Fermi Paradox.
Tentatively complete in that there’s a novella’s length of content here, but will update as and when an idea comes/I figure an old idea out.
Chapter 12: Drabble
In which I repurpose part of an unfinished chapter into, well, a Drabble. Complete with a Babylon 5 deep cut, because as Cassie will no doubt tell you, Alex is a total nerd.

Bookmarker's Notes
So I can find this again. It’s very charming; I’ve imagined the characters talking myself. I think I’ll go boot up a playthrough and main Jenova now. You’ll fire at least one lightning bolt if I have my way.

Summary
in 2069 AD, the region once known as the United States of America is a world of complex lore and political intrigue that our heroine doesn't really care about because she's too busy trying to find estrogen in the post-apocalyptic Midwest.

Summary
Pete after contracting PHANG syndrome - dealing with that, and with what it means in the context of the Laundry, and for his life and relationships. -- New chapter, January 31st, 2026: Pete picks up some stuff from home... It’s different, talking to the bereaved, when the person they’ve lost is you. (Probably not Regicide Report compatible, as it was written before that.)

Summary
These few remaining Saints, of course, generally found themselves more than busy in combating threats to the Emperor in the furthest reaches of space, ripping great, nourishing blooms of thanergy wherever they went. They interacted with the Houses primarily through the Cohort and sporadic collaboration with the Order of the White Glass. Their few visits to the worlds they had constructed were rare, treasured occasions met with significant festivity. The subjects residing on their Houses met them with adoration rivalled only by their love for the Emperor.
Roughly one-half, at minimum, of the entire House of the Eighth’s adoration for its Lyctor, the Saint of Joy, emanated from its Master Templar, Silas Octakiseron.
Silas has admired the founding Lyctor of his House since childhood. At Canaan House, he has a dream.

Jack finds his sanity is disintegrating into smoke with every day of recovery he lives through. He can't even be mad about it given that Agnes is behind it.
