Rec: Crescive In His Faculty [Richard II, 1 Henry IV, modern!AU series]

[joan_waterhouse]

Coming up with a timeline for the Crescive In His Faculty AU

I read Absolution for thebig24 and some of the listeners wanted to know more about the AU it is part of. When I first discovered this series I spent a very long time trying to find all the stories and putting them in the right order. This wasn't as easy as it sounds. Some of them are on ao3, some of them are on LJ, they aren't all written by the same person; it is all a bit confusing. ;)

These stories cover various pairings and ratings. Links go to ao3 wherever possible, all others go to the-phrensies, a moderated community on LJ dedicated to Shakespeare AUs. (You have to be a member to be able to read NC17 rated stories.)

Without further ado, here are all the stories I managed to find in somewhat chronological order.*
