    Summary

    Post-Tyrant fic set in Falcrest. Baru is establishing herself before her move on Segu Mbo to solidify her trade empire. While she waits for Spring, she finds herself having to work through her PTSD, patterns of obsession, and self-hatred. Iscend offers a solution: allow her to try experimental treatments and guide Baru through therapy. Though Baru agrees, she doubts her motives, and the closer they get to the truth, the harder it is to accept.

    ( I know the tags on this are insane but I swear this fic is actually pretty funny and has lots of gay drama )

    Summary

    While the new Imperial Accountant was galavanting around Aurdwynn drinking, destroying the economy, and very obviously obsessing over Duchess Vultjag, the young heiress Haradel Heia, daughter of the Stag Duke, was trying to unravel the mysteries of her curious new handmaiden: Iscend Comprine. But some mysteries should be savored, not solved.

    A "lesbian period drama" taking place alongside the events of Traitor. Born out of a desire for more weird ships.

    Summary

    Lindon is drowning.

    He’s a tall man, and a strong one. Taller and stronger than Svir. Not as tall as the waves breaking one by one over his head, or as strong as the pull of the moon dragging them inexorably forward. The tide on its way in, the sea in its customary on-and-off embrace of the land. And Lindon, struggling fruitlessly: chains glinting a dark and ugly gray under the bleak, cloud-filtered rays of the morning sun.

    Svir can see it all. He can hear it, too. The clatter of the chains, the crash of the waves, the agony of Lindon’s cries. His own name. His own heartbeat in his ears. Loud. Not loud enough to drown any of the rest of it out.

    (Baru Cormorant has just become Falcrest's first truly unbound cryptarch. Svirakir wishes she hadn't.)

    Summary

    It was obvious what she saw in Tain Hu. Most women who loved women saw it, too – after all, she had so effortlessly courted a good number of the divers and actresses. But she struggled to understand what Hu saw in her. The long winter of marching and hunting had left her sharp and lean, but there was nothing special about her. She was an imperial accountant, a turncoat and a traitor; Hu was unwise to trust her, let alone bring her into her bed. But for some reason, Hu spied something in her, something that made her worth loving and worshiping. And for tonight, she wouldn’t let herself question it any further. For tonight, she belonged to Tain Hu, and Tain Hu belonged to her, and they were the only people in the world.

    Summary

    Baru shifted in her sleep, her eyelids fluttering, her frown deepening. But as soon as she opened her eyes and met Hu’s own, the frown became a lazy smile, one that came easily to her. Oh, how it made Hu’s heart glow to know she could make Baru, her Baru, who agonized over everything, happy.

    Summary

    Now that most of Baru's friends have graduated, she finds herself having nobody to room with her for her junior year of college, so her university assigns her a random roommate. To her surprise, the person they selected is the last one she would ever expect... but perhaps that isn't a bad thing.

    Summary

    Baru hated when the dukes saw her as nothing more than a vessel to prolong their bloodline. She hated the way they had looked at her—whether it was because they lusted after her body, or simply the power she could offer them. Sometimes it felt like no matter what she did during the rebellion, they didn’t care about her as a woman, as a person, but as a political tool, or a toy just barely worth their attention. And the very idea of bearing their children was abhorrent beyond belief. It made her sick even thinking about it.

    So why, when Tain Hu wanted her to carry their heir, did it feel so good?
