    Less universally acknowledged is that a single man in possession of very little in the way of fortune may be in want of a partner as well, but John Watson had little time or energy to devote to his own wants or needs...

    Please note that I gleefully take great liberties with the laws governing same sex relationships and how they are seen in the Regency Era. As in, it is not an issue at all in this story. At all.

    Summary

    The year is 1876; the date is July the twelfth, and the airship Recovery is about to embark on her maiden voyage.

    Onboard we have John Watson, an airship mechanic on his first assignment; Sherlock Holmes, a wealthy young man who wants nothing more than to continue his studies in alchemical engineering, but has been dragged along on a family trip; Irene Adler, a notorious and beautiful socialite; and her maid Molly Hooper, a shy girl with bad luck in love.

    Throw in elemental spirits, technical troubles and a dash of magic, and you've got a recipe for- well, could be love, could be disaster, could be madness....could be all three!

    So come along, ladies and gents, and watch the highjinks ensue.

    Summary

    Sherlock/Interview with the Vampire fusion-- London, 1887

    Sherlock Holmes is Gentleman Death in silk and lace-- a cold, cynical vampire ever-desperate for something to break the tedium of eternity. He finds it in Dr. John Watson, a depressed war-hero committing slow suicide through drink and the dangers of London's gambling dens.

    Their strange friendship is fraught with difficulty from the onset-- but their lives truly take a turn for the macabre when they find themselves at the center of a gruesome (and infamous) murder spree.

    ..............

    “But really Sherlock—You just would have to pick the one with the goddamned hero complex.”

    Please note that I gleefully take great liberties with the laws governing same sex relationships and how they are seen in the Regency Era. As in, it is not an issue at all in this story. At all.

    Summary

    When Tony Stark was seventeen years old, he built his first AI. On that day, he ceased to be his father's creation, and became a creating force in his own right.

    That one act likely saved his life, and not always in the most obvious ways.
