The Dirty Energy Source

Do you want to make a spreadsheet about spreadsheets?
Do you still need to figure out what two other fandoms you should request beside the only one you really want fic for?
Or are you trolling ALL the letter posts for placeholders, just so you can write those people some nice, dry coal?

We want to know all about it.

Two old schoolfriends wind up trying to solve the murder of another former classmate's father... who seems to have been killed by an enchanted candlestick. Julian's a private detective. Ned's a "metaphysicist" (this is Victorian London with some added magic). Together they fight crime! While also trying to work out their "how do we keep winding up in bed together?" relationship.

Really good/hot shippy book, but also a gripping mystery and great worldbuilding. (I think the way the magic is conceived of is pretty cool.)

That sounds wonderful. And it's actually a canon relationship, not just slashy?

Oh yeah. Absolutely a canon relationship. With sex and everything.
