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
A season has passed in Falcrest since the Reckoning of Ways. The waters have settled, but the Cryptarchs are arranging the board for their next plays, and they must play quickly. On the record, Iscend has gone missing, and she is the most desired asset in the Great Game.
Off the record, she's moved into Baru's spare bedroom. Baru can seize this opportunity to halt Hesychast’s eugenic outlook for the Republic, but as always: at what cost, and to whom do we pay the price?

Summary
Why would I care? Shir asks herself. Am I seriously thinking about...about becoming my father? Giving in to them, when not even a year ago I was screaming at Olake in the woods about signing the treaty?
Maybe he had been right. Maybe she had been too young to understand, too uneducated. That’s what Itinerant had respectfully suggested: that Shir just didn’t know better, was too sheltered and small-minded to see the scope of the world.
If Yawa knew, or if Olake did, they would allege she had some kind of attraction to the man. In her heart, Shir knows that to be false. She wants Itinerant’s approval as she once sought her own father’s. But he had compromised, and so she had let him go. That was all there is.
Shir was not compromising anything, for she was not a coward.
OR a Tain Shir character study, because her backstory in Monster was too compelling to let go of until I wrote a fic.

Call Me Your Lady by Heia Haradel (ThePantyReckless)
Fandoms: The Masquerade Series - Seth Dickinson
09 Feb 2024
Tags
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.
