Summary
Tom Jopson never desired an interesting life. He served King Francis. He daydreamed about the day he would be able to marry Edward Little, the man he had loved since childhood — a childhood spent in a town that believed him to be a girl, despite the fact that he knew otherwise.
And yet was happy, he thought — or at least something close to it — serving and dreaming and pretending to be someone he wasn’t. But then came the King’s despair, leaving him unfit to rule. Then came Sir John, with his heavy taxation policies and brutal hand over the people. Tom’s careful peace had begun to fall apart, and he was forced to take matters into his own hands.
With the Sheriff of Nottingham on his tail, only a handful of other criminals and one of the Sheriff’s own deputies on his side, and the man he loves stuck in the castle under Sir John’s control, Tom is left with only one option: see his home set free, or die trying.
Written for The Terror Big Bang 2023
A trans, polyamorous Robin Hood retelling.

Summary
It's a bit like Fight Club, he has to admit. Cornelius is their own personal megalomaniac leader. Sol doesn't fancy himself the protagonist--he isn't fucked enough in the head for that--but that doesn't stop him from following Cornelius like a hungry dog, corralling the other men in his wake.
What he doesn't understand is what all this has to do with the collection at the John Franklin Memorial Maritime Museum.
