Five Times John Childermass Thought Privately that John Segundus was Quite Lovely, and One Time He Said So

by sherwoodfox

Childermass is tasked with investigating the new magician in York, John Segundus- a usually routine assignment that leads, quite forcefully and unexpectedly, to years of indecent and unacted upon thoughts of bright eyes and slender hands and pale skin that glows pink under the stress of any excitement.(Or, well, the title is summary enough.)

To the Quick

by Johns_Farthings

'Childermass had found falling in love with John Segundus a little like tripping over an uneven step – a mildly surprising event, but one with perfectly ordinary, even understandable, origins.'When Starecross receives reports of disturbances in a wild part of the moor named Gorse Hollow, Childermass has few concerns about accompanying John Segundus to investigate them. Magic is his business, the first turn of spring is in the air, and he has been in love with Segundus for so long that he's in no danger of actually admitting it. Yet something sinister awaits them amongst the thorns, and Childermass realises too late that Gorse Hollow may threaten all he holds dear.

Dare Not Speak

by RockAndAHardPlace

Childermass is dead. And Segundus dares not speak of what this loss has done to him. "He must act as though nothing was amiss, as though Childermass’ death was a shame and not a tragedy. He must seem completely indifferent, yet suffer the loss of that person whose existence had become his entire happiness."

Tincture

by neveralarch

Childermass was ill. His nose was clogged, his head felt like it was full of cotton, and his throat was full of sandpaper. If he was a wealthy man, he might have rolled over in bed and written the day off as a loss.Unfortunately, there were no days off from being Mr. Gilbert Norrell's right hand.
