Upon the request of a family friend, Sherlock Holmes is drawn into one of his most chilling cases. Sir Henry Baskerville, heir to the Baskerville estate, is the target of a centuries-old curse—or perhaps something far more sinister.
Holmes sends his trusted companion, Doctor John Watson, and his beloved wife, (y/n), to the desolate moors of Dartmoor to uncover the truth in his stead. As they navigate the secrets and legends of the Baskerville estate, they encounter ghostly apparitions, ancient superstitions, and a plot that threatens to end Sir Henry’s bloodline.
Can the trio unravel the mystery of The Hound before it claims another victim, or will the Curse of The Baskervilles strike again in this tale of cunning and romance?

Summary
(excerpt from Rolling Stone magazine)
...Through multiple EPs and singles, Geto's underground popularity had surpassed Japan's cultural and national boundaries, extending him to an international scope. And people wanted more.

In the warmth of the sand and the hush of the tide, promises are made—not just of escape, but of a future built on the quiet certainty of each other. A story of longing, liberation, and the kind of intimacy that only grows in secret.

Summary
Antinous sweetly caresses the emperor’s face, kissing the greying hair at his temples.
“I have much grieved you,” Antinous whispers contritely. “I can sense your weariness, Caesar.” He twirls his fingers in one of the ringlets of Hadrian’s meticulously-styled hair, peering into his eyes. “If I am to be your burden, let me also be your consolation prize.” His eyes are burning embers in his godlike face. “Do it, my love. Take what you need from me.”
Or: Antinous does give the emperor grey hairs, but it is always for a good reason.

Summary
Er erinnerte sich an nicht viel.
Es war, als wären die letzten zwei Wochen wie aus seinem Gedächtnis gelöscht. Die letzte klare Erinnerung, die er fassen konnte, war wie er diesen schäbigen Nachtclub in Santa Monica verlassen hatte.
Alleine.Warum war er alleine gewesen?
Oder: Bob wird (mal wieder) entführt und erinnert sich (mal wieder) an gar nichts. Aber in dramatisch und ein bisschen realistischer (hoffe ich)!
