    Summary

    “Fuck, it’s that bad?”
    “Worse,” Pyrrha says. “But you should take it. It’s a career-starter if I’ve ever seen one. Nine weeks on the West leg of the tour, opening for a First House band.”
    “Say the name. Say the name right now. Say the name of the band, say the name. Dve, say the name of the band.”
    “SARPEDON,” Pyrrah says, with the reluctance of someone speaking the name of a long-forgotten god whose dedicants worship by pissing just left of the toilet.

    Nine weeks touring with a nu-metal band they hate. How bad could things possibly get for the Rocked Tomb? Drummer Gideon Nav, bassist-vocalist Harrowhark Nonagesimus, keyboardist Palamedes Sextus, and guitarist Camilla Hect are determined to find out.

    This fic is complete, and will update every Tuesday.

    Summary

    “Gideon,” said Palamedes with the patience of a saint, “the rules are the rules. It wouldn’t be fair if I changed them just for you. In a well ordered society—

    “It’s not a well ordered society.” Gideon knew where that was going, and she certainly didn’t have the time. She slapped a slip of paper onto the counter and said, “It’s secret santa.”

    And there lay the source of all of her problems: handwritten in a script so neat and precise it could have been printed, Harrowhark Nonagesimus. And everyone knew that Gideon and Harrow hated each other.

    So what if they had started taking smoke breaks together? So what if Harrow had helped her fold shirts just last week, in a store she didn’t even work in? So what if Harrow had laughed as the two of them did Jagerbombs at Palamedes’ Halloween party, the glint of her fake fangs flashing invitingly in the orange party lights? They hated each other. The two of them would both work in the mall until one of them inevitably strangled the other with her bare hands, and Gideon wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Except that lately, Gideon had started to like Harrow.

    Which made that slip of paper a fucking problem.

    Summary

    “There’s something you need to know,” Harrow said to John and Mercymorn. She locked eyes with Gideon, holding her gaze firm.
    White-ringed eyes flicked between them, and a frown flickered on John’s face. “Alright.”

    “Well, it’s interesting that you’ve chosen to tell me about the visa application now,” Harrowhark said, turning to John and Mercymorn, “when Gideon only proposed last weekend.”

    John blinked. He looked between them. “Excuse me?”

    “I’m getting married,” Harrowhark said.

    “To who?” John asked.

    “To my assistant,” said Harrow, ignoring the choking, strangled noise of surprise Gideon made from the door. “To Gideon Nav. We’re engaged.” She paused, then stood. “Aren’t we, Griddle?”

    “No,” Gideon said, because she was the worst. “What the fuck?”

    Or: Harrowhark Nonagesimus is the youngest editor ever to run the Ninth House publishing company. But when Harrow violates the terms of her work visa, her only way to retain her job is to marry a US citizen— and who better than her assistant, Gideon Nav?
