Summary
All his life James had wanted nothing more than to find his soulmate, the man with a mark matching the one that appeared on his own ribs in his youth. When a bullet tears through his soulmark James can only hope it won’t break his chance at true love, his chance to find whoever he is bound to by fate.
But it does come as a surprise when he spots that familiar mark on Francis Crozier.

Summary
“I would hazard a guess that you are in fact quite good with them–with children,” James says.
Francis makes a harumphing noise but does not disagree, which is as close to a confirmation as James is likely to get.
Something feels as if it clicks, subtly, into place inside him. A delicious, tingly warmth spreads throughout his body.
He emphatically declines to investigate the feeling.

This is a story about families—the ones we find, the ones we choose, and the ones we make.
It is also a story of James Fitzjames absolutely gagging to get knocked up by one Francis Rawdon Moira Crozier

Summary
James is an aging professional tennis player making the run of his career at Wimbledon when his longtime coach, Sir John Franklin, dies unexpectedly. Left without a head coach and grasping desperately for what might be his final chance at glory (and personal validation) James begs retired legend Francis Crozier to step in as his coach, just for one match.
It’s a long shot--Crozier infamously dislikes James for reasons that remain opaque, and James isn’t helping matters with a long-simmering and ill-advised crush--but, miraculously, Francis agrees. Tensions run high, societal norms are challenged, sparks fly, and their unlikely partnership might just prove a winning combination.

Summary
By pure happenstance, Commander Fitzjames wakes up to find himself under the wardroom table on Erebus. His presence, thankfully, goes unnoticed.
By all except Francis. And when Francis says nothing to reveal him... well. James is still half asleep. Not in his right mind. That's a reasonable enough excuse for teasing the man under the table, just slightly, isn't it?
(OR: the kinky mix of degradation and praise that the fitzier crowd has been needing)

Francis propositions James thinking he's gay and just hungry for approval; James complies thinking Francis knows about his parentage and that he's being blackmailed (but also because he’s gay and hungry for approval).

Summary
Perhaps -- if they had not already lost so many men, if they had not become so profoundly beholden to the whims of the ice, if they were not indeterminately trapped here, if Sir John had not shown such disdain for Francis for so long, if Francis had it in him to care a whit anymore about decorum, or Her Majesty’s service, or anything beyond his own selfish cares, if his blood was not comprised so much of whiskey -- Francis would not do this. He would not let his head be turned by a pretty face, as if he were a lusty sailor and not the captain of the entire damned ship, he would not say things like this to Fitzjames, of all men, who made Francis’s blood burn, who made him angry, who he found vainglorious and vapid and terribly, terribly desperate to please.

Summary
“There’s colour in your cheeks, at least,” Francis judged, and stood. “I will return with the doctor as soon as I may. Do stay upright, James,” he added, with a tinge of real worry.
“I am capable of sitting in a chair,” James returned with some hauteur, and then Francis left the tent and James had to put all his effort and energy into not making himself a liar.

Summary
“I have been miserable,” Francis says, “for a very long time. Since before we returned, and certainly before we set off on the expedition at all. You know this, James, you— you have seen the worst of me.”
Seen it, thinks James, and wanted it. And loved it.
The surviving crew of the Franklin Expedition returns home. Ross throws a party. James Fitzjames attempts to recover what has been left in the ice.

Summary
"It will be best for us both, going our separate ways," James finished - decisive nod, now, the Captain making his call - and briefly touched Francis' shoulder with his hand. "I only wish you happiness, Francis. You must understand."
My happiness is at your side, James Fitzjames, Francis thought, and said "of course, James. I'm sure you have the right of it."

Summary
James cannot shake his grief for Sir John; he knows he's only a man, but he's a captain, and Francis' second, now. The men need him strong, and for that, he needs to be stirred from his mourning.
He goes to Francis for a fight, and ends up on his knees.

Summary
James tries to open his mouth to argue, to defend their late commander against Francis’ derision; but without warning, Francis’ weight at his side shifts, his hand slipping from James’ shoulder down to the tangle of ropes wrapped haphazardly around his bicep, his fingers catching on the weave of them and pulling, and James—
God help him, James moans.
James finds himself a little tied up in the spirit room. For Guin!

Summary
He is good at suppressing desire. It has gotten him far. He’s walked this tightrope for four-and-thirty years without error, without mistake. He has built a barrier high as a pressure ridge, high as the Great Wall of China, between the Royal Navy man he has to be at sea and the base desires that live in the pit of his stomach.
And Francis Crozier has taken a sledgehammer to its very foundations.
Or: In the aftermath of the altercation in "First Shot a Winner, Lads," Fitzjames reckons with the desires he's been repressing since 1845.
