    Summary

    Robin Hood BBC. Alternate Timeline.

    1943. British soil under oppression from within. Robin Oxley, Viscount Huntingdon, now part of an elite black ops unit of ‘dead men’ commandos is outlawed, and the Lady Marion Nighten is leading a complicated double life, ignorant of the fact that Oxley (who left her years ago and enlisted in the Army) is still alive.

    For the residents of the Channel Islands, British officials and all military withdrawn prior to the German invasion, it is a time of hunger and privation, of an oppressor’s vise-like grip on the populace. A time of no escape and little hope. It is a time in need of, a time ripe for…Robin Hood.

    Summary

    Ivan is a simple farmer boy with little to his name, and then the Tsar's men take away everything he has to live for—except revenge. This summer, read the story of how one lowly peasant with nothing left to lose takes on the corrupt national pastime of hot sauerkraut wrestling, and takes down the entire Russian empire in the process.

    A story in five I mean six I mean some number of parts because I'm bad at estimating how much plot I have.

    Summary

    Look: Amethyst has no idea that a promising fellowship student from the fancy shmancy university's "Archaeology of Religion and Ritual" department went missing weeks back.

    But she does know damn well you don't talk to strangers on the train at night. Not unless you really really got to.
