Summary
After his leaving do, the newly-retired Inspector Lewis has to face losing James Hathaway the very same way he lost Val. Meanwhile, James is off on an awfully big adventure which he doesn't understand in the slightest. Top of his irritations is an overly-clever, softly-spoken Detective Constable who's as difficult as Hathaway is awkward, and who didn't even bother to finish his degree. While the 1960s has its charms (Fred Thursday, no smoking ban), Hathaway would quite like to get back to 2012. Unless, of course, he's dead there.
Meanwhile, all good policemen need a mystery to solve. Even retired ones.
(will include several pairings along the way)

Summary
The sunshine is almost bright enough to blind and Hathaway is not sure that he trusts this. He expected fluffy white clouds, a big booming voice, a Presence. Or he expected heat. Flames. Darkness. And if he is honest, for the past few years he's been expecting nothingness. Just peace.

Summary
They said that questions pooled there unanswered, so that one could stay for ten years—or a hundred—and only gather confusion like a stone gathers moss. They said that a kraken slept curled at the foundations of the university, waiting for the deluge that would swallow the world. They said that one would have to be a fool to go to the University of Oxenfloode.

Summary
‘You were having sex with your tutor?’, John said, trying but doubtless failing not to sound either surprised or judgemental.
Takes place in a vaguely season 2 space, not especially canon-compliant.
