    Summary

    War had her Mongols, Death her Black Plague, Famin her droughts, Makima had Feudalism. In all her travels across the globe, from the petty dutchies of Europe and through the minor emirs of western and central asia, nowhere had tangled itself quite so well as Japan. India was close second, but its overlapping layers of loyalty and religious conflict had made control in the region all but impossible. Japan, however, had everything she needed. A strict system of control and organization, yet broken just enough for anger, fear, and jealousy. So while War subjugated the step, Death shredded through the weak and infirm, and Famine grew her deserts, Makima had worked her way into Japan's complex strings of feuds and nobility.
    -or-
    A universe in which Makima becomes a Daimyo.

    Summary

    “I don’t have sex.”

    Agatha’s face screwed up somewhere between delight and incredulity, “You don’t ever?” She scoffed, “As in you’ve never at all? How long have you been here?”

    “Since the inception of life itself.”

    “And you’ve never fucked?” The way she said it, it did sound a little stupid, “What do you do to pass the time?”

    “I scare children,” Death shifted in her chair, still rubbing at the skin of one hand with the other. No wonder Agatha had nowhere to live, she thought. She was unbearable. “Amongst other things.”

    *

    Or,

    Upon meeting Death, Agatha takes it upon herself to educate her on some of the finer points of being human.

    Summary

    After walking away from her job in Paris, Andy Sachs finds herself blacklisted from the entire journalism industry. According to a vengeful Miranda Priestly, the only way Andy will ever get a job with a newspaper is if she comes back to Runway and serves out her two weeks’ notice.

    A lot can happen in two weeks.

    Note: This is not based on the movie of the same name, though the initial premise is similar.

    “Maybe.” Chirps Rio. Hope does, after all, spring eternal.

    Rio goes from IT service monkey to fucking her very beautiful, very poised boss in a very short period of time. And then, of course, there’s the aftermath.

    Summary

    "What did you just say?" Agatha grits her teeth, her voice dripping with rage. Trembling, even. Not her hands though, her hands grip the revolver as if the only certainty Agatha has in life is that she wants to engrave that bullet in Rio's skull.

    "I said..." Rio opens her eyes. "I said it's not their fault that Nicky's dead."

    The sound of Agatha's laughter reverberates, in her ears, like air raid sirens. "You're right," Agatha says. "It's your fault."

    "Shoot." Rio dares her because she can only take so far. "I dare you, come on," she presses. "I dare you to kill the mother of your child."

    ***

    Agatha Harkness is a (in)famous bandit and Rio Vidal, a bounty hunter, is hired to capture her.
