Summary
Master William Graham is an out of work violin virtuso in 19th century Munich. Hannibal Lecter is a wealthy patron with a lust for...composition. I play fast and loose with history, music, and the German language (which I love, but have not mastered.) Heavily inspired by my very favorite trashy romance novels that could be improved upon with the addition of lovesick murder husbands. Adult content, etc. I proofread it myself, several times but I'm sure there's a typo or two I missed that I'll notice after posting. I beg your gracious forgiveness.

Summary
When a case of mistaken identity results in Ignis taking on the role of tutor to young Iris Amicitia, things get off to a rocky — if amusing — start. After he makes the acquaintance of the hotheaded son of the lord of the manor, however, it becomes obvious that this posting may be more trouble than he had first bargained for.
To Ignis, Gladiolus is arrogant and ill-tempered, more interested in chasing skirts than in abiding by etiquette. To Gladiolus, Ignis is a prissy, insufferable city-slicker with a chip on his shoulder.
With time, they'll both come to learn that there is so much more to each other than meets the eye.

Summary
Nine years.
Nine years since Ignis last held Noctis in his arms; nine years since they said goodbye. Nine years since the accident that left Ignis blind, cutting short a promising career as an artist.
It should be long enough to move on; to forget. Yet even now some smell will remind him of the sweet scent of his dear Noct's hair, of his skin, and it all comes flooding back.
Ignis has resigned himself to his lot in life, scraping a meagre wage by teaching piano and violin. It's a modest existence, one far from the high life of parties and expensive liquor that he once knew, but it's all he has left — until Noctis returns to Altissia, and his entire world is turned upside-down.

Bookmarker's Notes
Spoiler summary: Dave Sheppard is the owner of a ranch known for their high-quality horse breeding. Rodney is the children's tutor, and the Marines are the kitchen staff directed by Lorne. Then a golden enigmatic stranger appears and seduces Rodney with poetry. John gets revealed to be Dave Sheppard's older brother, who defected to the Union side during the civil war. I'm pretty sure he got booted out for being gay. Lorne and crew served under Sheppard. They all defect to their own Atlantis settlement when McShep's sexcapades are discovered. Very nice period piece.
