    Summary

    It had ended with a parody of a wish. Astarion once would have given anything for Cazador dead. He wished it to every god that he could name. He wished it in the dark of the tomb, and he wished it in the rotting dormitories, and he wished it when people moved their bodies in his. He wished it for centuries, until the wish had become white noise to Astarion’s life.

    And then, in the year 1492, the fates, laughing at Astarion, cursed him with his wish.

    -

    In which Astarion keeps resetting time to find a timeline where Wyll lives with his soul intact.

    Summary

    “Oh,” Essek says, and a tremulous smile comes to his mouth. “That’s wonderful. You, ah.” He licks his lips. “You understand what happened?”

    Caleb nods. “Ja. Clone spell. I don’t – things are a little blurry. But I . . . must have died?”

    A ripple passes across Essek’s face. “You did,” he says quietly, with a rasp to his voice. “Just now.” He swallows audibly. “I barely made it here in time."

    “Hm,” Geralt grunts, which Jaskier probably should have expected.

    “You know what?” Wei Ying said. “I think we should be friends.”

    “Vulcans do not have friends,” said Lan Zhan. He was staring very determinedly at the screen in front of him.

    Wei Ying frowned at him. “That can’t be right.”

    Summary

    Vimes waved that stupid idea off. "Oh, right, you'll just go move into your empty old house — sorry, empty old childhood home — in Ankh and live by yourself till you die, of course. You'll have the rats whipped into shape in no time. … Sir."

    Vetinari looked blank in an extremely suspicious way.

    Summary

    In April of 1848, at latitude 70 degrees 05 minutes North, longitude 98 degrees 23 minutes West, Captain Fitzjames of the H.M.S. Terror stood on the blank field of pack ice and examined a block of tea. It seemed such a strange thing to him. How could it be that a tea cake, something that belonged on the shelves of warm and friendly English kitchens in London and Liverpool, came to be in such an unearthly, inhospitable place as this?

    This is the story of how it came to be there.

    Summary

    If Cliopher had to sit around twiddling his thumbs he would lose his mind. “I’m going to legalize the rest of Fitzroy Angursell’s poetry,” he said, without entirely meaning to. To Aioru’s widened eyes and Ludvic’s raised eyebrows, he said, “I need a project, it’s non-essential to government functioning, and he’s Zunidh’s poet laureate now. Having half of his works be illegal for sedition is absurd.”

    -

    A political crisis in Nijan prevents Cliopher from retiring after the landslide and reuniting with Fitzroy. What it can't prevent is Cliopher and Fitzroy being ridiculous about each other from worlds apart.

    Summary

    “What should I call you?” asked Thisbe.

    “Just Clementine,” said Clem. “Please.”

    Thisbe nodded. “Very well Operant Clementine.”

    Again Clem felt a rush of relief, letting out a breath she hadn’t realised she’d been holding.

    “Thank you…” She paused, searching for the right term. She wasn't sure what people called each other on farming worlds, so it seemed safest to copy what Thisbe had done. Her tutors had told her to do that if she wasn't sure, after all. “Thank you, Operant Thisbe.”

    SI takes Clem with him when he escapes House Kesh. The wheel remains the same, but things change for the players inside it.

    Summary

    Disability a Day is a challenge for myself to write daily about being disabled. Because my current Special Interest is D&D and Dimension 20, that will be what I currently write. This does not mean I will be posting daily, as I have neither the time nor energy for that, but I am challenging myself to write a bit each day about being disabled, which will slowly accumulate here.

    I have made a month challenge list which is the first posted work if you want to join along.

    Summary

    Joe al-Kaysani, professor of art history, has a very clear idea of what he's looking for in a partner: a fellow academic with his shit together who can provide deep intellectual conversations on demand.

    Nicolò di Genova, surly food services chef who doesn't even warn people about pork or have a bed frame, does not hit the brief.

    Still, there's something magnetic about him, and Joe figures there's no harm in having a little fun while he waits for Prince Charming to arrive.

    Summary

    Rimmer pressed his lips together in a bitter smile. “Might I remind you that this whole dire situation is your fault?”

    “What, the coronavirus?” said Lister.

    “No, you idiot, us getting evicted,” said Rimmer. “If it wasn’t for you we’d have two whole bedrooms right now. I could have got a hotplate and a chemical toilet and sealed myself in.”

    “Hey, hang on,” said Lister. “I got us evicted? You’re the one who told Mr Hollister about Frankenstein.”

    “I wouldn’t have had to tell our landlord that you were in breach of our lease if you hadn’t been in breach of our lease,” Rimmer snapped. “Really, you –”

    Reluctant flatmates Lister and Rimmer are forced to move into a one bedroom flat after getting evicted. Unfortunately, it's early 2020 and what was supposed to be a temporary situation drags on. And on...

    In which Lister won't stop bringing home new flatmates, Holly communicates exclusively via Zoom call, Kryten bakes bread, the Cat bedazzles a lot of face masks, Rimmer hoards toilet paper, and everyone learns some things about themselves.
