    Summary

    For some, like Andrew, soulmates are a curse. For others, like Kevin, they're a lifeline. For those like Neil, it doesn't matter how much they try to run from fate’s design.

    Destiny cannot be so easily ignored.

    Summary

    March had his palm read once, years back, by a hack psychic in a gaudy tent at some old timey carnival Holly had begged to go to. She'd taken one look at his craggy hands – two fingers bandaged at the time - and told him, in no uncertain terms, that if he didn't slow down, boy, he was gonna hurt himself. He tipped her very badly.

    Suffice to say, he did not often have the appearance of a man in control of his own destiny.

    Summary

    There’s something divine in the way Grace smiles— Simon has been damned since the day he was born.

    Bloodied then, too.

    OR: Simon is adjusting to a new life on Erid. One where things - he - can be different. But he's never known how to want things, how to quell his own desperation, and he fears fucking it all up far more than anything he's dealt with before.

    Summary

    "How do you know Nonagesimus has gone somewhere dangerous?" asked Isaac. "Have you wired some kind of alert system?"

    "It's, uh. It's on the schedule," said Gideon. "I just... forgot. Because of the bread."

    Nobody was convinced by this, least of all Gideon.

    "It's a Ninth House thing," Gideon went on, backing away with increasing desperation. This was a slightly more plausible explanation, if only because nobody wanted to look too closely at what fell under the awful skeletal-ribbed and rotting umbrella of Ninth House things. "Gotta go—!" And she was out the door, gone.

    But it wasn't a Ninth House thing, except inasmuch as it was happening to the only two representatives of the noble and decrepit Ninth House on this quite literally godforsaken rock. Gideon knew Harrow had gone somewhere dangerous—knew that Harrow was back in the lab where they had only just completed a horrible trial—because she could see it, clear as day: an awful overlay on her vision of that terrible dangerous room and a pair of terrible dangerous hands drawing some kind of ward next to the plinth.

    The hands were definitely Harrow's.

    This was definitely a problem.

    Summary

    “Convict,” said the woman with the bone leg, her voice a dusky rattle. “You’ve been brought here to accompany a necromantic adept on a scientific expedition as his protector, in exchange for the pardon of your sentence.”
    “You’ll kind of be like my cavalier,” said the gorgeous man jovially.
    “He is not a cavalier,” corrected the woman. “Not even close.”

    aka: the locked tomb bloodymary au that (literally!) came to me in a dream. Simon is a former prisoner of the Ninth house prison tasked with protecting necromancer Ryland Grace and his best friend/fossil bone construct on a dangerous mission to a planet full of mysterious necromancy. fun stuff ensues.
