Why this must be read: This is my second rec this month by penknife. I'm going to try to stop there, but I do encourage you to read all of penknife's Sanctuary fanfic because every. single. one. of penknife's stories is amazing. This fic in particular is another one of my favorites because not only is it deliciously hot with overtones of Victorian repression, but it is also able to accommodate both Helen/Nikola and Helen/John without alienating the other ship, something which is rather hard to find.

John lets his arm rest more firmly against the small of her back. "I believe we shocked the children," he says.

Helen smiles a little mischievously. "With this? This wouldn't even have been shocking in the Victorian era."

He could say that she knows perfectly well what's shocking about her willingness to allow him in arm's reach, but it would shatter the fragile moment of contentment, and he's not sure to what purpose. "Let me see," he says instead, putting his arm around her waist and his other hand on her knee. "Is this more shocking?"
