Summary
Psychomanteum, noun. A dimly-lit room containing a comfortable chair and a mirror angled so that it reflects only darkness, intended to communicate with spirits of the dead.
It is our privilege to welcome you back, one and all, for the Summer 2024 season at the London Athenaeum. As some of you will no doubt be aware, this past winter saw a spate of minor thefts, with one enterprising thief successfully removing a marble bust of the goddess Carpundia. We are pleased to report that the probate court proceedings are now complete, and all of the stolen artifacts have been returned to us. For safety reasons, we must now ask that all rosaries, japa mala, ojuzu, komboskini, misbaha and other similar prayer beads are left at the door and collected upon exit on account of one of our new acquisitions, a devil vitrified in a prism of glass, and the multiple recent incidents of attempted strangulation.
We are proud to present a slate of all new exhibitions and events, including the crown jewel of this season: an exhibition on the 170 year history of the Athenaeum itself by acting head curator Edwin Payne. This is the distillation of an extraordinary life’s work, and one not to be missed.

Summary
Welcome to Earth in the year 2046: here be monsters. Thirty years ago, a fissure opened in the ocean floor and unleashed creatures from another dimension upon an unsuspecting planet. When the world is ending, only two things can save it: the power of love - and giant, kaiju-fighting robots.
Crystal Palace fled the Jaeger Program after the death of her partner and now scratches out a living hauling stolen parts for illegal mech cage-fights in exchange for cash and the odd ration card. She’s satisfied with the grubby anonymity of her new life, until a face from the past arrives to pull her back into a jaeger.
Niko Sasaki was never supposed to be a jaeger pilot. After the death of her family in a kaiju attack, her guardian moulded her for command: the Jaeger Program is her inheritance. However, in a dying world, plans change, and Niko finds herself preparing to step into battle with the girl whose heart she broke.
A Pacific Rim AU.

Summary
The Wizard King’s reputation preceded him wherever he went, wherever the roaming form of his impossible moving castle carried him. His was a reputation drenched in blood and carnality, in licentious desires and grisly ends. A reputation of dangerous beauty, intoxicating charm; of a smile sharp when it grinned into the bright young faces of hapless townspeople, and sharper still when it sank into their chests to taste their beating hearts.
A chilling little story, to be sure, and a concerning one to have slunk its way to their doorstep, but Edwin wasn’t overly worried about it.
After all, the Wizard King only ate the hearts of the pretty ones.
He was Edwin Payne of Payne & Sons Bespoke Tailoring; he was always and only of Payne & Sons. Such was his station in life, a role he himself was tailor-made for. A role he fit like a drab but finely-crafted glove. And so it went—until the day a wizard and a witch conspired to turn his tidy little life upside down.

Summary
A voice behind Edwin says, “So, you come here often?” and Edwin shrieks.
It is not a manly shriek.
It is the shriek of something small, fluffy and hunted, which is how Edwin feels the vast majority of the time. Since the near-death by bullying incident at school, he’s had a visceral, full-body reaction to being startled. Unfortunately this means he accompanies his shriek by throwing his phone as hard he can into the opposite wall.
Even from a distance of eight feet away, Edwin can see the screen shatter into a delicate spiderweb of glass.
“Oh, bollocks,” he says.
“Woof,” says the naked chap in the sex swing behind him. “Bad times.”

Summary
June, 2028.
Charles glances over at Edwin. “Cheer up. It might never happen.”
Edwin puts his espresso cup down on the saucer with a morose little click. “It already has,” he says glumly. “A whole day? Are you quite certain?”
“‘Fraid so.” Charles leans back in his chair and grins at him. “A whole day of hanging out with your mates, helping them prepare for the happiest day of their lives.”

Summary
When Shane Hollander looks into the future he sees— not a flat sheet of ice, not that, not anymore, but something equally as empty.
His backup plan was always to go to university. He hadn't thought he'd ever need it, not really. Especially not near the end, when everything felt so certain. But his grades were good, his mom made sure of that, so when he woke up in the hospital he already knew what he was going to do next. But after?
There's a standard path people take, he knows, that comes after school. But when he tries to picture it, slot himself into the picket fence and the corporate overhead fluorescents, it disappears. Like it was never going to be real at all.
(Or: after ending up at a jazz bar to celebrate the end of finals season, Shane Hollander finds himself where he never thought he'd be— in the orbit of NHL superstar Ilya Rozanov.)

Summary
“Hudson Williams, great to meet you,” Hudson says, swooping in with his boy-next-door smile and a firm handshake. He looks absurdly good—shiny dark hair, broad shoulders, charming as hell. Like a glossy, well-lit Superman ripped straight from Connor’s earliest spank-bank memories.
“Likewise, Mr. Williams, I’m—”
“I’m so sorry,” Hudson cuts in smoothly, already moving backwards a smidge with Connor in tow, hand pressing warmly against his spine. “But I’m actually here to steal this guy.”

Summary
“So,” Ilya says at last. “Why do you hire a professional Dominant?”
Shane is grateful for Ilya’s timing. If he’d been drinking just then, he probably would have choked and spat tea all over the pavement.
“I don’t know. I liked the idea, I guess.” He swallows and risks a quick sideways look at Ilya. “Why do people usually hire you?”

Summary
Every Boston Raider knows that although their captain has a girl in every port, he’s got a soft spot for the one in Montreal. Dr. Shane Hollander knows it’s better to have a semi-regular source of casual sex than try to make a relationship work during residency. Ilya Rozanov knows that the doctor he’s fucking in Montreal is unaware that he plays hockey, and in fact probably thinks he’s Bratva.
