Summary
He’s staring at the ceiling. He doesn’t like that. He was always supposed to die looking up at the sky. Overdosed and lying in a gutter, but at least he could see the stars. Or the clouds. Or maybe it would have been winter and he could have watched snow fall as his life drifted away from him.
He’s in a warehouse. There are no stars. There are no clouds. There is no snow.
Above him is a tin ceiling.
It’s bleak.
Jason supposes it’s fitting.

A Cold and Particular Hunger by Anonymous

Summary
London, 1887. Shane Hollander arrives in England as the first ambassador of the Korean Empire to take formal residence in the English capital, armed with impeccable French, a diplomat's iron composure, and a private ledger of debts he intends to collect from a city that has already decided what it thinks of him.
He does not intend to be distracted.
Then he meets the Earl of Vashenkov at Lady Ashworth's autumn ball: a man with old eyes, a name that belongs to no country anyone will precisely name, and the quality of attention that one gives to something one has been waiting for across a very considerable length of time.
The Earl is patient. He has been patient since before the empire Shane represents had a name.
Shane is a diplomat. He notices everything.
He notices the cold.
A gothic romance in the Victorian manner, concerning hunger of more than one variety, the particular cruelty of being seen clearly by the wrong person, and the question of what a man consents to when he already knows, on some wordless level, exactly what he is consenting to.

Summary
Three worlds slammed together, and Ash Ketchum got crowned in the wreckage. He is the Monarch of Kanto and a hero on a poster, but a disaster remains behind closed doors. The man he grieved his whole life is not dead. Mamoru Chiba is alive, royal, and living a life that has “family” written all over it. It just does not include Ash.
While the city pretends the Merge is settling, old Rocket nightmares are resurfacing. The International Police force a partnership that feels like punishment: Ash as the anchor, James as the one man who can decode the rot. It is supposed to be professional. It turns intimate anyway. It turns into the kind of secret that ruins people.
Ash does what the world demands. He gives them a story they can clap for: Matt Ishida, stability, respectability, and a ring that looks like closure on camera. Jessie tightens the net. James smiles through the ceremony. The vows land like a lock clicking shut while Ash marries a man he doesn't love.
That is where Vow & Void begins. The cameras are satisfied. The ring is on. The sun is bright enough to make everything look fine.
It isn’t.

Summary
Uryū Ishida thought he’d planned it all out—checked and double-checked the calendars. It was the perfect overlap: a window of 18 minutes where everyone was busy. Too busy. He had to make it work.
When Uryū decided to fake his death to try and solve a murder mystery from his middle school years, he knew there would be challenges. Hell, whenever someone decided to trust Yhwach’s advice, there were bound to be issues.
What he didn’t plan for was his dad interrupting the event meant to kick it all off.
But there he was, Dr. Ryūken Ishida, dressed head-to-toe in scrubs ready for surgery, looking completely out of place on the bridge and beyond irate. He had a death grip on the collar of Uryū’s shirt to keep him from falling while he simultaneously punched Uryū’s would-be murderer in the face.
Oops. Must’ve miscalculated.
Maybe it hadn’t been eighteen minutes? Maybe it had only really been eight? And he missed the window? He could hear sirens in the distance.
Definitely missed the window.
A.k.a. Listening to Yhwach, the evil Lich, jeopardizes Uryū’s future in med school… and could end the world. NO ONE prevents Ryūken Ishida’s son from becoming a doctor—He forbids it.
