    Summary

    Winter in London and Francis is learning to busy himself. It is cold and it is damp – drafts like ice through his rooms, smog like smoke in the streets – but Francis is learning to busy himself. Learning to go to the shops, to the market. To write letters, draft and deliver lectures. To address the Royal Society, on this thing, on that; to walk down the street without snarling; to see Sophia for coffee, sometimes for lunch, and to not propose anything at all. To not drink.

    A post-rescue AU fic. Francis and James spend a winter in London.

    Summary

    Lily looked deliberately over Jane’s shoulder at that, her delicate fingers running through her smooth, ash blonde hair. She had started bleaching it a few years earlier.

    “Sure,” she laughed, sharp and flinty, “When are we not fighting?”

    Summary

    The Metros really were lousy at hockey. Shane Hollander was the only talent they had, which was why they threw the C on his chest before they even made it to the All Star break. The Raiders hadn’t given Ilya even an A yet. Coach had taken him aside and told him they weren’t going to think about a leadership role on the team until he’d finished his rookie year. He had enough to deal with, Coach said, which was nicer than saying Ilya was still nineteen, and his English sucked shit, and they weren’t quite done being worried about “character issues.”


    Ilya Rozanov’s rookie year reimagined by someone with serious hockey-watcher brainrot.

    Summary

    There’s a sign in front of Shane. It says Welcome to Scott Hunter and Kip Grady’s Happily Ever After in a cursive font that makes Shane think of Etsy. Shane’s stomach churns. He briefly squeezes his empty ring finger. He feels, all at once, like he might cry. Instead, he swallows, and breathes, and pastes a smile on his face, and marches his ass down to Scott and Kip’s fucking wedding of the century.

    Summary

    Mizu was hired. At first Akemi’s fury was incandescent. This was not the desired outcome. She tried her father again, and her father said, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”, and she fumed, teeth clenched, face hot. She tried to sneak out and Mizu caught her, grabbed her by the back of the neck—literally, the back of her neck, squeezed until it hurt. Pushed her back toward the house. Akemi screamed, “You can’t treat me like that!”, and Mizu, cold and soulless, said, “Like what?”, and Akemi said, “Like I’m a dog!” And Mizu said: “Can’t I?”

    Mizu is hired as Akemi's bodyguard. Akemi takes offense.
