    Summary

    My schedule is tight. Everything has a place, a time, a purpose.
    Oxford is the goal. Distraction is the enemy.
    If it’s not in my agenda, it’s not worth my time.

    So no — I don’t care about school gossip, or rich kids with secrets,
    or whatever mess I’ve been dragged into.

    I have a promise to keep.
    And I don’t break promises.

    ***

    This is an AU with a much more hardened, cynical, and slightly bitter Ruby....

    Summary

    So, what you need to know: this is a one shot, set in the Time & Tide universe, just after they moved into the Thame house. It never made the final cut. So you don’t need to read it to understand the rest of the universe. It’s a fun beach weekend for the whole MH crew. Oh, and you should listen to Pearl Jam’s Amongst The Waves. And maybe read the lyrics if you don’t know the song yet.

    Summary

    "I'll see you later then," Ruby says, releasing his hand. She involuntarily flexes her fingers as she drops her arm by her side.

    James follows the movement.

    "Have dinner with me tonight," he says, glancing back at her. "There's an old pub in Pemwick where the boys and I go sometimes for a drink or two." Ruby raises one eyebrow and James smirks. "Or maybe more than two. But the food is great and it's never too busy. I have something to do after school, but Percy can pick you up at 7.30?"

    Ruby hesitates only a beat. “It's a date."

    After the party at Cyril's house, Ruby and James are dating. Sequel to Like a Moth to a Flame.

    Summary

    Alistair meant what he said to James. He wanted to sit at the far back of the large room and sleep off his hangover, maybe even try and forget his heartbreak at the memory of Kesh smiling while he flirted with Camille the night before. That was the plan anyway. But then James decided this was the day he had to go and be an asshole and make it everyone's problem.

    So here Alistair was trying to mind his own business, and James had to go and poke the bear.

    The bear being Ruby.
