Summary
He walked slowly through the dark and empty hallways, the moon throwing the scene into blue tones and his footsteps echoing around him. Laurence’s mind kept carefully blank.
He passed Tharkay’s study, candlelight was spilling out from under the door. It looked delicate and frail, and while Laurence looked it flickered and died.
It is late, Laurence thought looking at the dark spot the light had left, the hallway felt suddenly a lot colder.

Summary
After the war is over, William Laurence and Temeraire go to live on the estate of Tenzing Tharkay. It is a brave new world.
30 days' worth of prompts -- ranging from drabbles to over-long fics in their own right -- all (mostly) in the same post-canon story I am projecting for them. Narrative is non-linear but canon-compliant, so spoilers for all 9 Temeraire novels.
(Ratings differ for each chapter so check the index in Chapter 1/Index. Any chapter-specific CWs/TWs will be listed in the chapter notes.)
