Scullery

This ficlet is set in the world of Bookhobbit's Childerrell fic, "The Days of Our Years". It's a wonderful story and you should go read it immediately if you haven't already. I am completely in love with Book's characterization and with the intersection of alternative sexualities, gender identities, and disabilities that Book meshes seamlessly with the canon.

I got this idea while doing my wife's laundry and it got me thinking about feminine hygiene in the late 18th century (mostly the lack thereof), particularly how a transman who had a lot of servants in his business would cope with such a thing. I think it would be a really horrible and arduous thing to have to go through every month - unless you happened to have a Childermass on hand.
