Summary
"We're going to an art auction?" he looked back up at Ed who was grinning with pride.
"Yes! I thought since I, well, ruined the majority of your artwork while you were away that we should shop for some new ones!"
Stede's heart swelled, but his smile felt more like a grimace. "Oh, darling, that's so thoughtful! But does it have to be in Charlestown? Surely there is art for sale in places where you are not so desperately in danger?"
"It's a masquerade, Stede! It's perfect!"
"That's true…"
"Did you see the list of featured artists?" Ed tapped the parchment eagerly.
Stede had not read that far, so he looked at the flyer again. The list contained many names, some that were familiar, more that weren't, but then at the bottom: The Widow Bonnet. "Mary?" he nearly whispered in surprise.
Or, Ed plans a surprise date for Stede - to go to an art auction to buy more of Mary's art to decorate the Revenge. Only Ed doesn't know that Mary herself will be there. Plus some of the crew are coming along so who know what kind of trouble they'll end up in.

Summary
Rumors spread throughout the small town of Yiling. Villagers talked in hushed, reverent tones about a woman that tamed the Burial Mounds, a mysterious but powerful cultivator that graciously took Yiling under her righteous protection. The rumors didn’t get very far, as they were too ludicrous for anyone to believe. Not even the Wen could tame the Burial Mounds, so how could any of them accept rumors about a single woman conquering the cursed place?

Summary
“Was thinkin’… Turkeys make funny sounds,” Arthur rubs his face, trying to keep himself from giggling again like a fool. Charles, from his spot on the ground an arm’s length from Arthur, stares at him. Arthur stares back, a panicking alarm bell prancing its way into his mind. That was probably a stupid thing to say.
Then, Charles bursts into his own fit of giggles as he takes in a shaky breath and exhales it as a surprisingly accurate imitation of a turkey gobble.

Summary
Arthur Morgan never cared much for the whole soulmate business. Like many others, who would marry and have children with someone who didn't match their mark, he was perfectly content forgetting that his soulmark was even there. No use pining after one supposed person who you might never even meet, who might be halfway across the planet for all you know, who might be better off not getting involved with you and your kin at all.
Which is why he didn't notice, at first, when his soulmark changed.

Summary
At the factory in Azzano, Bucky turns heads and his smart answers earn him no friends.
That's not always a good thing, especially when he draws the attention of a dog handler who honestly reminds him of a healthier, angrier Steve with even worse impulse control. If that's even possible. Bucky has dealt with worse, though. The kid is too unsure of himself to do anything too stupid, like show off his new pet in front of the other guards... or ask his attack dogs to defend what's left of Bucky's honor.
Impulse control. For someone who considers himself a German Shepherd to Bucky's coyote, he really needs to work on his impulse control.

Summary
1847. Aziraphale Fell arrives at Eden Hall to take up his new position as tutor to the young heir. The house is enormous, remote, and its occupants rather strange — but none more so than its master, the ill-mannered but inconveniently handsome Mr Crowley.
Mr Crowley’s gaze lingered on him.
‘Now I see you in broad daylight, I can tell you’re no gentleman.’
Aziraphale bristled. He was wearing his best ensemble, and it was of fine enough quality, if a little rumpled from the luggage.
‘Whereas you certainly look the part, even if your manners suggest otherwise.’
A Victorian human AU loosely inspired by Jane Eyre, but with 50% less angst and 100% less spousal incarceration.
