Medicine for the soul by Jamjar

Settling in, post-Corambis.

Not a lot of plot, but nice atmosphere, and good character voices.

Comparative Thaumaturgy by WynCatastrophe

I hope very much that this is going to be finished. I like the portrayals of Felix and Mildmay, and I like the OFC, who I think is remarkably like a female character Monette would have written.

We’d been living out in the country for the better part of an indiction before Felix started to show serious signs that he was bored to tears. I was actually kind of liking the peace and quiet, but I guess I should’ve known that couldn’t last long.

Worth reading even incomplete. Gen so far, het probably to come. Quite funny in places, too.

Cast Our Fevers in Stone by Louise Lux

Set after the fourth book in the series. Contains a mild spoiler for Corambis in that it is set in Grimglass, and it is their second year there. Felix discovers a series of carvings in the sea caves, and a great storm hits the town.

The Golden Ones by Ankaret

On the road to Corambis, the past catches up with Felix and Mildmay.

I don’t love the plot of this story, but I like Mildmay’s voice in it, and it is appropriately creepy for Sarah Monette fanfic.

Always bravely acquiesce by Petra

In which Mildmay attempts to evade the unfortunate fate of Silas Altamont, and Felix reaches some degree of certainty that he has succeeded. (Set after The Mirador, written before Corambis was published)

First by Scribblemoose

Slight spoilers for Mélusine and The Virtu, but more to the point, the story won’t be very interesting if you haven’t read the books. (And by the way, all of Sarah Monette’s books are excellent, and likely to appeal to anyone who enjoys slash fanfic, so pick up a copy of Mélusine, The Bone Key, or A Companion to Wolves a.s.a.p.)

I really like this story. There aren’t many plausible ways to get Felix and Mildmay together, but this one works for me. Especially Felix’s reaction; let’s face it, there are very few things Mildmay could do to hurt Felix, but this one would be humiliating as well as painful, even though Mildmay didn’t mean it that way.

At the Hands of the Wicked by Quasar

A new fandom—and for once I’m actually familiar with the canon. Serious spoilers for Sarah Monette’s Mélusine and The Virtu. If you haven’t read them yet, go do so. Right now.

After the events of The Virtu, Mildmay sees a ghost.
