Domini's 2024 Fiction Round-Up:
I Wrote You A (Lot Of) Stor(ies)!
(633,459 words’ worth!)
Hi hi friends! I have written what experts might perhaps call a “truly bonkers” amount of Rizzoli & Isles fanfiction for you (and me, obviously) over this calendar year, and I figured since I have relentlessly appeared in your feeds with words and words and words, why not do it again, but with all the words in one place? So! Here they are!
The titles of each story link to their respective tumblr posts, in case you liked any of them and feel so moved to recommend them On Here; the AO3 links are the links that say AO3!
The list is arranged by genre, AUs are broken out into their respective genres/by chronology for handy reference! (The smut is also classed emotional/hedonism, in case you don’t want to get any feelings wedged in there on accident.)
I included the AO3 descriptions if you’re new to my stories, or missed any of them and are intrigued (real talk: I myself forgot about a couple of these); it’s a long post so the good stuff’s under the cut!
It’s been a delight and a pleasure for me, a person who can apparently only coax dopamine from their squeezed-dry brain by tip-tapping about These Two Idiots into the notes app, ideally between 8-14 hours a day, and I hope it has been at least tolerable for you.
Thank you love you <3
(And a friendly reminder from one of your local fictioneers: writing into a vacuum does, ironically, blow; tell a writer you like their stories today!)
LONGFORM AU
LATE MEDIEVAL (England 1389)
•The Austringer (AO3)
In 1389 Leicester, England, Lady Maura Isles meets a dashing, mysterious stranger and is drawn into a web of intrigue, danger, and forbidden romance to rival the most notorious of chivalric tales.
THE GILDED AGE (Boston/NYC 1885, London 1886): The Age of Wickedness (Series) (AO3)
•No Rest for the Wicked (2023, but it completes the set)(AO3)
In 1880s Boston, a private detective with a mysterious past meets an idiosyncratic, strong-willed physician; they quickly become embroiled in a series of grotesque, disturbing murders that mirror horrors long thought vanquished.
•The Ways of the Wicked (AO3)
Sequel to NO REST FOR THE WICKED, a Gilded Age AU. Jane and Maura continue their lives together in 1880s Boston, though their happiness is soon interrupted by a new string of brutal murders that draw together the police, the Church, Boston's notorious street gangs, and rapidly-shifting social attitudes, all casting a bright spotlight on the dark underbelly of a shining city.
•Some Wicked Thing (AO3)
The third installment in The Age of Wickedness follows Maura and Jane through their life together in 1885 Boston. A young woman from a notable society family is committed to an asylum under mysterious circumstances, and our heroes must enter a dark, dangerous world in order to discover the truth.
•Among the Weak and the Wicked (AO3)
Jane and Maura are obligated to travel to London after the death of Maura's father in order to participate in the complex and rigid mourning practices demanded of Maura’s social station. Constrained by etiquette to remain within the opulent-but-shrouded Hyde Park mansion ruled over by Maura's stern, proper grandmother Lady Margaret and joined in black-veiled isolation by the elegant, distant, recently-widowed Constanze Isles, the pair spend their days bored and frustrated by the strict and monotonous rules of mourning, until a series of bodies are discovered in the dim, silent manse—the killer almost certainly moving just as silently among them.
HARD-BOILED NOIR (Boston 1931)
•Hard Luck (AO3)
In Prohibition-era Boston, private detective Jane Rizzoli is pretty happy with her little life of catching wandering spouses, foiling blackmailers, and solving problems the police won't touch, until one stormy night a tear-stained dame walks into her office, asking her to solve the murder of her high-profile fiancé Garrett Fairfield, one of the city's most powerful men.
•Hot Agony Jazz (AO3)
A sequel to Hard Luck: A Hard-Boiled Noir
After the events a few months earlier, private detective Jane Rizzoli is holed up in her converted office over a shirt factory, laying low, until one day a phone call from her brother starts a chain of events that quickly spirals into a life-or-death situation for more than one person.
NOTE: this story progresses from the second ending of Hard Luck ("Fireworks")
COSMIC HORROR
• Mother-Thing (AO3)
A too-accurately translated invocation found at a crime scene leads to the arrival of an unexpected guest, and the unraveling of the fabric of the universe itself. Rating is for depictions of unnameable and consciousness-rending terror! Yay!
•I Dare You (tumblr only)
Ancient sex witches! Maura eats a marshmallow!
SERIAL KILLERS (Contemporary Boston)
•Folie à Deux (AO3) (ongoing, ad hoc)
Inspired by a tumblr post in which it was proposed that maura and jane are actually a hot, highly-accomplished serial murder team operating right under everyone's noses. it's very dark! and very creepy! if that is not your thing! don't worry about it!
SMUT (EMOTIONAL)
•Diaphananthe hedoniana (Sex Pollen) (AO3)
Maura drags Jane to the annual Isles Foundation gala where they’re both exposed to a mysterious chemical that does what mysterious chemicals do, but once it wears off, reality has to come back.

Jane and Maura are at a bad place in their just-friends relationship and they each have very different ways of dealing with it.

the worst part is that the twenty minutes was waiting around until I had to go to work and now I’m at work so the waiting around clock has been reset for eight hours or so
today in This Medication May Cause Compulsive Behaviors: checked my email to discover I’d ordered a quasi-obscure plainsong hymnal (The Sacred Harp) at 4:46am

today is my city’s Pride and my job is at the confluence of the official celebration; the parade is literally passing by it at the moment my shift technically ends; pray for me and my getting home before tomorrow

just realized Keke Palmer is performing three blocks away from my house tonight and given that I can already hear the dj set I imagine it’s a free show for me later

Okay!! First of all: apologies for taking so long to reply; my work week is the weekend and it takes literally everything from me except my ability to complain, especially my ability to do any sort of book-looking research, and I wanted to make sure I got all the fragments right! (I mean, I know what they mean, but the numbers, etc).
I use Anne Carson’s translations (from If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho); I’ve read a few translations of the fragments and hers are thee best, in my estimation (Willis Barnstone’s are the most technically accurate, probably, and he was an absolute gem of a man as well as a lion of translation who was exactly what you’d imagine when imagining a translator named Willis Barnstone; Anne Carson is also exactly like you’d imagine but I suspect she leans into it).
So! I have six Sappho fragments (in Greek) tattooed! In order of acquisition:
1. 120: I am not one who likes to wound/rather I have a quiet mind
2. 126: may you sleep on the breast of your delicate friend
3. 63: but may it happen to me/all
4. 36: I long and seek after
5. 147: someone will remember us/I say/even in another time
6. 188: mythweaver
1 is on my left forearm, 2 is very discreet on the right side of my chest in light lilac ink, 3 is on the front of my right thigh (as I step forward, you know), 4 is on my right bicep above the alchemical symbol for salt water, 5 is on my collarbones (v small; the goal is to integrate it with a lyric from the B-52’s song “Moon 83”—don’t feel out of place/there are others like you) and 6 is on my left bicep above the alchemical symbol for purification in a crucible; 1, 2, and 5 were done by professionals, the others are self sticknpokes.
Will these be all the fragments I get? Undoubtedly not!! Will I get them all? Undoubtedly not!! But there are so many bangers! I conversed with you in a dream (fr. 134)? not one girl I think/who looks on the light of the sun/will ever/have wisdom/like this (fr. 56)????????? Barssssssssss
Anyway! Thanks for asking! ilu and I’m so proud of you for all the progress you’re making on your thesis!!!!! A huge accomplishment!!!!!!!!
wait ok this is actually one that has caused some contention before when I've talked to people about it. reblog and tag whether or not you check the weather prediction every day before going out
