Summary
In fact, Dracula is the source of this particular rumour, for as many astute citizens have noticed, the description of the titular character fits someone we know all too well—caped, a scar on the face, a death-like pallor.
Today, I will interview none other than Prosecutor Barok van Zieks, the famed Reaper of the Bailey, and confront him with London’s most burning question:
Is he a vampire?
In which an intrepid reporter aims to uncover some dark truths.

Summary
Two years ago, Team Plasma leader Ghetsis and his son, N, rocked the nation with their polarizing statements about people’s oppression of Pokémon. No one knew much about this mysterious duo, nor what happened to them following a puzzling earthquake and the appearance of their home—the monstrous castle in Unova’s north end.
In the time since, despite several landslides and the castle’s fragile foundations, Unova’s expert archivists have meticulously searched the castle, documenting their findings for the purposes of historical preservation. For a time, they were the only ones allowed to step foot in it.
They aren’t anymore.
If you are reading this, you are a visitor to Ghetsis’s Castle, Unova’s most haunting tourist attraction. This guidebook will lead you through a few of the most important elements of the castle and give you an inside look into these terrifying leaders—some of whom might not be as evil as we once thought.
A guidebook to the remnants of Ghetsis' Castle. Be warned, visitors: what you learn might leave you forever changed.

from dust to dust by abrightgrayworld

Summary
Ghetsis’s castle looks exactly and nothing like it used to.
The stench of gasoline hangs thick and heavy in the air, emanating from the numerous buckets hanging off Anthea and Concordia’s arms as they slowly make their way in. Rubble crunches underfoot, and years-old dust drifts in the air, disturbed by their footsteps. The castle is a ghost filled with ghosts—of their past; of icy, appraising stares; of the pained cries of Pokémon dumped at their feet; of the warmth and love that they shared with each other and their little brother, just enough to keep their spirits from breaking.
In which Anthea and Concordia burn it all down to start again.

the sound of music by abrightgrayworld

Summary
Yuujin’s hands flex around the sheets. “I know little of Western musical notation compared to you,” he continues, “but you did teach me some over our years in London, and after that performance, I couldn’t forget the sound of the koto and violin together. It took me many days, but I tried to notate the violin part as much as I could, and I obtained the music for the koto part after paying the composer handsomely. She quite appreciated it.”
Herlock stares at him, speechless.
“I had imagined,” Yuujin says, soft, “that we might play it together, one day.”
In which Herlock and Yuujin play a duet.

Summary
My Ayame,
There is no moon tonight.
London’s skies are foggy, choked with the grey, acrid smoke that permeates every one of my breaths. I’ve been here for a few weeks now, and my grief is no less heavy for having left Japan.
It makes me wonder… was this worth leaving Susato for?
When I am not thinking of you (I am always, always, thinking of you), I think of her (I am always, always thinking of her).
Over the course of his adventures, Mikotoba Yuujin writes letters to his wife.

Summary
"It is done," Xenk says. He holds up his own right hand to demonstrate, displaying the golden light that is already sinking into his gauntlet and disappearing beneath. "We are bound, you and I, until the magic is dispelled."
"What the fuck," Edgin whispers. He scrabbles at his sleeve, yanking it up to examine the faintly-glowing runes that have encircled his wrist. "What the fuck? What do you mean, bound?"
Sent by the High Harpers to retrieve a criminal to aid in a desperate mission, and authorized to use binding magic to ensure his cooperation, Xenk comes to understand and long for the former Harper agent Edgin Darvis during the tenday they spend in Icewind Dale, surrounded on all sides by ice, and cold, and endless lonely nothingness.

Summary
“Claudia?”
Clauda lets out a breath. She comes back to herself, all the tension falling from her shoulders.
“The pieces of me that want to go bang,” she admits through narrowed lips, “well, they’re kinda rattlin’ around right now.”
