Nemesis by MorallyGrey ( @silverinkgoldenquill )

"I try to live in the now… Where the ghosts of old wrongs do not abide." Nemo turned his back on the past for a long time, perhaps for too long. Now, snatched from his own ship, he has little choice but to work for a man whom he long thought, and wished to be dead. His only hope is the League, but that means uncovering dark secrets. Secrets that, some would say, should have remained unearthed… (A Sequel to the LXG 2003 Movie). Completed, 180k words.

Chap 31:

“I am not agreeing to any of this yet, but I must say you have-” he looked down at his bindings, “captured my interest. I'm going to France tomorrow anyway,” Zenith admitted.

why is the literature fandom sleeping on The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (preferably the movie, because Alan Moore sucks ass)? come on. it’s a dream come true. a multiplayer crossover between ALL works of fiction EVER WRITTEN in which the only rules are to stay as accurate to the source material as possible (but there’s still a lot of narrative loopholes to exploit if you want to go a different route) and respect the time period it’s set in (but there’s a time machine somewhere, if you need it for characters from different eras to meet). the movie itself is full of found family trope even if the writing is a bit cliché but hey, it’s fun

[id a screenshot showing a comic book drawing of captain nemo, a tall, dark-skinned indain man with a thick black beard. he's wearing a blue pagri (a type of turban) with a nautilus shell at the forehead juncture, a long blue sea captain's coat, and a metal gauntlet on his left hand. he's holding a lit cigar in his right hand and a metal rod in his left. end id]

The Nautilus as it appears in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

[id under cut]

[id three separate images showing the nautilus, a massive, ornately built steampunk-esque submarine with the design of a copper toned giant squid stretching across the top from front to back, tentacles wrapping forward around the bow of the ship. the first image shows the nautilus breaching the surface of the ocean and spouting a jet of water out of a blowhole like apparatus. the second shows it submerging with bubbles filling the waters around it. the third shows it docked in murky, greenish waters. end id]

MORIARTY: British Intelligence created me, Bond. They recruited me while I was still at university, just as they did with you.

Naturally, I excelled at espionage.

When the idea arose that MI5 should manufacture a crime-lord through whom they could control and monitor the underworld, I was the obvious choice.

After Reichenbach I was recalled here, where I rapidly ascended to become director, despite spluttering objections from embittered toads like Mycroft Holmes. 

Meanwhile, able underlings like Moran maintain my criminal empire.

You see, when you begin shadowboxing, sometimes the shadows become real. 

Isn’t that odd?
