    To love requires change.

    (And birds.)

    (And flowerpots.)

    (And witches.)

    (And more trips to B&Q than you’d ideally like to make in a week, but it’s fine. No really, it’s absolutely fine.)

    Summary

    "So, this… look you're going for," Lucius starts, testing the waters.

    Blackbeard stares at him with vacant eyes. Jesus. Lucius is viscerally reminded of the man's dead-eyed look before he pushed him overboard.

    "Does it feel like the right choice for you? Are we happy with it?"

    "Do you have a fever?" Blackbeard asks, voice hoarse.

    Lucius cocks his head and says, "Don't think so. Do I look hot?" He winks.

    Blackbeard lifts his hand and presses his fingers roughly against Lucius' forehead.

    "What are you—"

    "No fever," Blackbeard grunts and draws back. "Good. Didn't want to cut off your fucking hand."

    Lucius drawls, "I'm touched."

     

    Or: Lucius survives. For better or for worse.

    Summary

    Edward is pushed unceremoniously into a small, dark room and lands on his knees, then his hands. He stares down at the floorboards and the door falls shut behind him with a heavy thud.

    "Oh, hell," says a familiar voice like a gut punch. "I was really hoping for a nicer reunion than this."

    Summary

    [**Complete at 13 chapters**] A case of industrial espionage via blackmail lands on Cowley’s desk. He sends in Bodie and Doyle to pose as a gay couple attached to a 1930s-style dance band to flush out the blackmailers. This entails a 24/7 masquerade on their part, but as the case drags on with no move from the blackmailers, Doyle can no longer see the humour in their situation, unlike Bodie. Tensions grow between them, and the bait is taken just in time to save the case and their partnership.

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?
