Ring Out Wild Bells to the Wide Sky by keswindhover (PG)

Right-ho! The custom-made Daimler is raring to be off, and I’ll be driving. Frankly, one doesn’t have the option of being picky about gen, het, or slash (or even WTF Crossover) in a fandom of this size; I’ll try to come up with options to suit all tastes, from his lordship’s refined (or at least experienced) palate, to the neophyte.

Fandom: Lord Peter Wimsey
Pairing: Gen

Why this must be read: It’s on [livejournal.com profile] yuletide and I expect some of you have read it before, but this is a fic that bears re-visiting. Simply, it continues canon, and it continues canon well. It’s impossible to read Gaudy Night and Busman’s Honeymoon without catching glimpses of the war that is to come. Sayers wrote in a letter that Saint-George would join the RAF and be killed in the Battle of Britain. This fic posits a somewhat more hopeful ending (one that doesn’t land Peter with the Dukedom).

Harriet looked down at Saint-George. “And you of course were dashing about being the young man about town, without a care in the world. Well, until you pranged your beautiful motorcar.”

"Pranged a beautiful aircraft this time,”
