    Summary

    The return of his eye should have taken this curse away, so why does he still feel the same, burning thirst?

    He knows Kurogane would submit to his fangs again, but maybe there's no reason to tell him. If he can find a way to remove his condition on his own, no one need be the wiser.

    (In which Kurogane fights to convince Fai that vampirism suits him just fine.)

    Summary

    Richard Sharpe heads off on a mission and finds more than just a guerilla stronghold - he finds renegade Englishman, Carlyle. Carlyle might just resemble Alan Rickman in the casting couch of my brain.

    Beware vast amounts of angst, violence, sex, pain, struggle, more sex, more pain - as well as a little purple prose, a passionate relationship, romance and a lot of lavender soap...

    Please excuse dreadful Spanish, truly appalling historical inaccuracies and, as I can't find a final final version, some errors.

    Summary

    After Sharpe is rescued from months of torture with no purpose, he struggles to feel secure and safe physically and metaphorically in the whirlwind of army politics. Sergeant Harper refuses to leave his side, but suddenly his warmth and concern seem like a liability instead of an aid as Sharpe struggles to prove he still has worth to his superiors.

    With flashbacks, nightmares, and a failing and damaged body holding him back, Sharpe's struggle to heal has only just begun.

    Summary

    Lieutenant Sharpe, growing quickly weak with sickness and fever, is stranded by a storm with men he isn't sure he can trust yet. But once the storm hits, he finds he has to put his life in the hands of Sergeant Patrick Harper whose silent, hunting gaze has been following him since their latest altercation just a day ago.

    Are Sharpe's fears fevered paranoia, or terrifying reality?

    Summary

    An extension of the scene in Sharpe's Gold where Sharpe nearly bleeds to death before his shoulder wound is cauterized, told from Patrick Harper's point of view.

    This is definitely a fic based on the book rather than the movie - so Teresa here is a newcomer. The overall scene and much of the dialogue is (of course) from Bernard Cornwell, but this fic was also massively inspired by the highly recommended works of TheNotQuiteChosenOne and Cerebrobullet, which are set in the same scene and are also in this collection.
