    Summary

    A continuation of 'Smoke Hearts with Mechanical Parts; A Study in Slime,' by LaClarity at Wordpress. This story is a steampunk AU remix of Study in Scarlet, with cephalopod elements.
    Watson hates himself. After being shot in Afghanistan, he underwent a procedure to replace his heart with clockwork. Back in England, his new flatmate is not all he appears - Holmes has been hiding something even more unnatural than Watson's mechanical heart.
    My story picks up where the original left off - Watson's heart is malfunctioning, and in an attempt to get it wound up again, Holmes has revealed himself. Watson swoons in horror.

    Summary

    Steampunk AU — Thedas has evolved since the old ages, along with its technological advancements. Being born with magic is now a social stigma, mages are no longer powerful and feared, and the old arts are forgotten. Nobleman Garrett Hawke is about to marry to an influential Kirkwall family, but he now faces the fact that he possesses some of these ancient powers, and must seek help to control and hide his raw magic before the marriage plans crumble to dust. Rumors about a miraculous healer bring him to Darktown, but his journey is cut short when he becomes tangled in a struggle between technology, magic, politics and idealism. Kirkwall is facing impending doom as more and more magical events occur, and people can no longer rely on the things they know to fight back. Bringing back the knowledge of ancient times seems to be the last resort for all, but can anyone rise to the challenge and save the City of Chains?

    Prompt fill on DA-kink.

    Summary

    The Wrangulator moves across the landscape.

    The AO3 Tag Wranglers are quite possibly too cool for this world and are writing fic illustrating and mythologising the work they are doing on the AO3. It is steampunk; rich and beautiful and should be read and loved.

    I love it, and instead of packing and, you know, getting prepared for my trip I have been attempting to illustrate what the Wrangulator might look like.

    Summary

    A de-anon (finally) from the capkink meme. His village destroyed by the northern Empire, Steve Rogers is sold as a slave to Lord Tony Stark, a man with no heart but a ticking clockwork machine inside his chest. He's been told that Lord Stark takes pleasure slaves, and bitter, grieving, and terrified, he expects nothing more of a northerner. But months pass, and Stark does nothing. In a rapidly unfolding chaos of scheming politics and a clockwork world, Steve begins to wonder what sort of man Stark is-- and whether he'd mind being a pleasure slave at all.

    Summary

    Almost a quarter of a century ago, the cities of Earth were torn from the earth by some mystic upheaval and set flying, before threatening to fall back. To prevent the incredible loss of life if they fell, structures known as Ramparts were rapidly constructed, containing the material apparently most susceptible to the new mystical gravities of earth: silver. A new world order was built, as the deserts created on the surface during the Upheaval denied cultivation, based on Cities and flightpaths and park-grown food, a world in tentative political and physical balance. And now that balance is threatened.
