The Queen's Thief

Charioteer by petrichoral
Costis has been captured by the Mede, but Gen has a plan to get him back. Hijinks, as usual, ensue. Oh, poor Costis, always one step behind. This did a great job of evoking the books, even though here the Mede are faux-Roman rather than faux-Persian.

A Ruby Held Up to the Sunrise by lilacsigil
The story of how Gen came by the ruby earrings. Wonderfully in tune with canon.
