Summary
Edwin stumbled and choked on a laugh. Charles kept a solid hold on him so he wouldn’t fall. “What exactly do you call this style?”
“It’s an underground dance,” Charles said dismissively. “Doesn’t have a name. It was all the rage in my day though, trust me.”
Edwin laughed out loud this time. “Of course, I forgot about the ballroom dance craze of 1987.”
“Exactly. Now hold on!” Edwin knew Charles well enough by now to intuit what he meant, and he latched onto Charles’ shoulder with a death grip just before Charles dipped him low to the ground.
“You’re going to drop me!” he sputtered. Charles laughed and hauled him back up. They both knew full well that Charles would do no such thing. Edwin just liked to act scandalized for the fun of it.
“Have I ever dropped you before?” Charles asked smugly, falling back into a two-step.
“There’s a first time for everything,” Edwin retorted.

Summary
One would think that having the name of one's soulmate appear on one's wrist on one's sixteenth birthday would make matrimony much less complicated. It mostly does not. And not at all for Miss Elizabeth Bennet of Longbourne.
(A deconstruction of the "soulmate identifying mark" trope, using "Pride and Prejudice." Trigger warnings in the tags.)

Summary
“I did not mean her.” And then, with an oddly tender smile, “Visander, no one who saw you could mistake you for a girl of sixteen.”
This was an obvious lie: almost everyone who looked at Visander saw Katherine. He had traveled for weeks with Sinclair’s men, undetected. He did not point any of this out. What he said, instead, was, “You offered to teach me to dance, once.”
Phillip’s smile turned crooked. “I did, didn’t I?” he said, and drew even closer. He put his hand to Visander’s waist. He had touched him like this once before. When he’d taught him to shoot. “Put down that sword of yours, and I will show you.”
Phillip teaches Visander to dance.

Summary
After the day from hell -- fights with George, insults from Skull, no time with Lockwood, and, worst of all, skipping dinner in a fit of pique -- all Lucy Carlyle wants is for it to be tomorrow.
A relic that Lockwood & Co found in their basement has other ideas.
Or, Lucy gets stuck in a time loop and has to figure out exactly what opportunities she's been missing before she goes crazy -- or before she does something stupid like kiss her boss-slash-roommate.

Summary
Lucy is freshly 17, has been at Lockwood and Co for a year now and is having a pretty good time living in the here and now, all things considered.
After a routine job forces the past down her throat -- literally -- Lucy's got to figure out why she's coughing up flower petals before she suffocates from them. Add in George, stuck in a research whirlwind, Lockwood, kept purposefully in the dark, and Kipps, who'd happily be anywhere but in the middle of it all, and Lucy's only sure of one thing: she's really, really sick of daisies.
Or, Lucy's refusal to acknowledge her feelings for Lockwood might just kill her. And that's if actually acknowledging them doesn't kill her first.

leave you so breathless by sanvitheartificer, thewestwinged

Summary
Lockwood glances up from his magazine, eyes crinkling into that helpless little smile she knows is just for her and George—just for the warmth of 35 Portland Row. “Yes, Luce?” he asks.
Lucy stretches her legs out, lets her head loll so she can meet his gaze upside down. She hadn’t planned quite this far ahead, but she’s a good enough improviser, isn’t she? What she lands on is, “Would you still love me if I were a worm?”

Summary
There’s something here, between the three of them, Lockwood isn’t that oblivious. He knows George hasn’t just stuck around all this time because of his passion for the Agency they’re building. He knows Lucy wears the necklace he gave her every day. He knows the two of them get on better than he ever could have asked for, and that their closeness always makes Lockwood kind of breathless and giddy in a way he doesn’t know how to manage. What he doesn’t know is what they want from him. He doesn’t know how the thing they’ve all been circling around can ever get resolved, when Lockwood doesn’t know how to let people in the way they deserve.

Summary
Hanahaki doesn’t create a lot of ghosts. They’re relatively rare, and when they do manifest, they tend to be fairly placid. Technically, they have their own subcategory of Type One, but Lockwood’s never personally seen one on the job.
Hanahaki death glows, though. He’s seen more of those than he can count.
They’ve usually got the shadowed remains of plant matter spread out around them, so the death glows are distinctive. Once, he could see every petal of a wide rose bloom, glowing in neon green right next to the fellow’s fingers. Body long gone, flowers long dead, but the glow was still pressed into the pavement. Lockwood avoids them, as best as he can. Whenever he sees one, it just makes him grimly thankful that neither Lucy or George have as much strength in Sight as he does. That they won’t be able to see his death glow this brightly when his time comes.
It’s bad enough he’ll have to leave them due to something as drawn out as Hanahaki tends to be. Death by heartbreak, and all. Dreadfully boring.

Summary
She hates this fear, cold and unsettling, the way it clings to the memories and the secrets that she so desperately seeks to hold close to her chest. Apparently, one can’t exist without the other, and it chokes Alex, opening a cavity in her chest that claws at her lungs and inclining up her windpipe in gradual, painful twists.
No, she’s got to learn to breathe like this. To remove the fear would be to strip every last detail about herself until she has been flayed raw, and Alexandra Jennings is sick of being laid bare for the world to use as they see fit.

Summary
When Alex and Reggie get home from their shifts at the coffee shop and the dog groomer, respectively, Luke forcibly sits them down on the couch and makes them watch some of Julie’s videos. They are suitably impressed, because they’re not idiots and know musical genius when they see it, and in the middle of Luke’s rant about how it’s insane she doesn’t have more subscribers, Reggie says,
“You should plug her channel. We have a bigger platform than she does, we could help her out.”
“Can we do that?” asks Luke. “We don’t know her. Isn’t that weird?”
“It’s the internet,” Reggie shrugs. “Everything is weird on the internet.”
Or, Luke accidentally becomes rather successful on YouTube, and attempts to use his limited fame to help a girl he's never actually met.
