    Summary

    Four years. Four songs about Steve Rogers, Captain America, and how the U.S.A. might've processed their feelings about the wartime loss of their celebrated hero, years before the de-icing.

    Plus a theme song for the 90's cartoon of the Howling Commandos that 100% would've existed, for sure.

    (Throwback Thursday to that time in 2014 when I physically could not stop writing little songs about Steve Rogers.)

    Summary

    Once upon a time there was a prince and a knight.
    Neither of them were the ordinary type of prince or knight of course, because if they were, why would anyone bother to tell a story about them? This prince had no real hope of ever becoming king, as everyone from his earliest nursemaid to his most trusted friends had made perfectly clear for the whole of his life. He was not a prince of, shall we say, the right sort of blood. Oh, his mother had been important, to be sure. A fine woman of good name and proper manners, attached to a family with tracts of land and bannermen and connections throughout the kingdom.
    She just hadn’t been the queen.

    Or, the one in which James is a bastard prince and Francis fights a dragon.

    Summary

    Birds sing in the trees that line the little, glassy lake. The summer sky overhead is clear and blue, not a single cloud dares to cross its brilliant surface. The air is warm and full of life. 

    A single rowboat glides across the glassy surface, distorting the perfect reflection of the trees leaning over the lake and the glowing sky above the green leaves. Lovely fingers dance across the surface, lingering in the tiny waves created by the boat. Free from soft white lace gloves, the bare fingers waltz across the clear water, droplets dripping down pale fingernails. 

    Sunlight sparkles off the lake. 

    The rowboat is made for three.

    Summary

    “You look well in the firelight,” said Ross, his voice pleasant and hoarse from sleepiness. Crozier saw his shadow first, then Ross himself as he came around the sofa and sat beside him. His dressing gown hung loose about him. He was thin these days, thinner than Crozier liked to see him, but he still smiled.

    “Your eyes are beginning to go,” said Crozier. He tossed the end of his fur blanket across Ross’ knees, the better to share the warmth. “Ann will have you in spectacles if she hears you talking like that.”

    Summary

    Almost fourteen years have passed since John Bridgens was separated from the love of his life, Henry. At first, John made an adequate living rising through the ranks of the Royal Navy, but since then, John’s fortunes have fallen into ruin. Barely keeping himself alive on the meagre wages of a law-writer and constantly longing for his lost love, John believes he has very little left to live for. In despair, he turns to opium. 

    A crossover between AMC’s The Terror (2018) and BBC’s Bleak House (2005), based on the Charles Dickens serial narrative of the same name and the fact that John Lynch is terminally lovely in both shows as John Bridgens and Mr. Nemo / James Hawdon, respectively. 

    You really don’t need to know anything about Bleak House to read this – I certainly didn’t, to write it!

    Summary

    “Oh shit,” Jaskier muttered. He crawled as far back into his little shelter as he could fit. He hadn’t planned for this to happen. He hadn’t thought this through at all. He didn’t know what to do next.

    In the blink of an eye, the monster had rounded his shield of roots and was staring directly at him.

    Now he’d never know what that look in Geralt’s eyes meant, that quick glance he had chosen to direct at Jaskier when it appeared he’d had less than a second left to live himself.

    Jaskier’s hands were clenched at his sides. He wanted nothing more than to wrap his arms around his head and make himself as small as possible. But if he was going to die anyway, he wasn’t going to spend his last moments curled up in a frightened little ball.

     
    Or, Geralt is doing a fine job of pretending being followed around by a pining bard does nothing but annoy him, until Jaskier gets hurt.

    Five different flowers have passed through Jaskier's lips by the time they’re marching up a mountain to kill a dragon.

    There is no potion to dull the sharp prick of heartbreak when he sees how Geralt watches Yennefer: Desperate and filled with a jagged longing that echoes in Jaskier’s bones.

    "Now that he knows, Billy wonders how he could have missed it. At dinner service, Jopson smiles at all of them, serves all of them, but it's Little who gets a lingering look as Jopson fills his glass. It's Little whom he brushes against when taking his plate, subtle but in a way no properly trained steward ever touched an officer. Jopson is expertly trained. That is no possible excuse."

    Lust spreads like fever. It is aimless; it cannot be named. It is a vague craving for human flesh. To be embraced. Penetrated. Claimed.
