Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: John Segundus/ John Childermass

E, 19k, Virginity, Kidnapping, Rescue

When you were reading Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell* did you at any point think to yourself; you know who I ship in this? Segundus and Childermass? No? Neither did I. And how wrong we were because there's a je ne sais quoi about the Johns that is beautifully captured in this fic (and all fics) by halsinator.

The basic plot is that Segundus is a virgin and in this world suddenly bursting with magic his virginity has become something other beings-- magicians, fairies-- could potential use in their spells. And so he keeps getting captured. And captured. And captured. And Childremass, roaming about the countryside for political reasons keeps rescuing him.

The world building is so beautiful; the descriptions of spells, the strange things happening in the world, of magic. And the characters are so lovingly depicted; poor Segundus, perennially optimistic despite all of the shit that keeps happening to him, sulky and ungrateful to Childermass' repeated rescues, and Childermass, gruff and rude and unable to cover how much he cares about Segundus...

It's fun and full of heart and ultimately steamy.

10/10 have already read like a dozen times.

Also with podfic!

John Segundus & John Childermass ~ John Squared

This is my entry for the @jsamnfanart Christmas Fan Art Exchange. Thank you again for organizing this year, too! :3

My match was @apidologist and their prompt was “Childermass and Segundus bickering/teasing (romantic or not)” and I really enjoyed it because those two were on of my JSAMN OTPs! <3
