Oh yee we're going to all spots in history now.
Some smol apothecary. He owns a little shop in a small Victorian town probably in the south of England by the coast because we still need the coast.
He's a precious bean with a good knowledge of herbs and medicine. He's famous throughout the village; most answers to the question "How'd you heal so quickly?" Is "Patroclus!"
A travelling musician that came into the town, originally planning on stopping in the village for 3 days and then setting off to France to start a music career. That's scrapped pretty quickly when he gets really ill, as in coughing-every-two-seconds ill, and hast to stay in the village for a lot longer than intended.
While he's renting a place in the local inn the innkeeper just takes one look of him and is like "You're sick aren't you? For your sake and the entire village's go visit Patroclus.". After hearing about Patroclus he's just like "seems legit," and rocks up to his apothecary.
Pat just takes one look at him and is just sat there like
[Patroclus] "Oooooh dear gosh influenza."
[Achilles] "Influ... What?"
[Patroclus] "Flu. You have the flu. Right this will sound odd but you're going to be living here until you're better."
[Achilles] "Wait why?"
[Patroclus] "Untreated the flu spreads so quickly and we have so many young children and elders here- I really don't want everyone else to get it especially when it's mid winter and I'm low on herbs-"
[Achilles] "Okay fine I'll stay!"
Achilles ends up really enjoying his time with Patroclus - I mean really enjoying it - and is now trying to think of an adequate excuse to send to France to explain why he's 3 months late to his appointment and at this point probably isn't coming.

He now uses that talent to perform in the local tavern.
The Shepard's daughter and village girl, and one hell of a waitress. She helps out at the bar and Patroclus' apothecary and has many girl friends in the village. She's one of the wittiest people in the village and a very avid reader of Jane Austen.
She knows about Patroclus' and Achilles' love interest in eachother and is always looking out for the two when they're under any suspicion what's so ever.

The Hawkshaw Inheritance
The Hawkshaw Inheritance is a completed story, with twenty chapters in total. For as long as almost anyone can remember, a small percentage of people have possessed fantastic gifts. Superhuman strength, speed, and smarts are just a few of the many such abilities on record. Some choose to exploit these powers for personal gain, but most use them for the benefit of their fellow man. Thanks to these people, who we call superheroes, the world is safe. The reality is a little more complicated. Most heroes are content to stop the supervillain and pose for the cameras. But it takes more than a few costumed cops and superpowered celebrities to save the world. Humanity is in danger from forces that ordinary heroes are woefully unequipped to handle. But neither they nor the public will ever be aware of the danger they are in, thanks to the efforts of the Council. For more than twenty years, the world's most powerful, influential, and intelligent metahumans have worked tirelessly in secret to protect the world, and subtly steer it on a better course. Six months ago, one of their number, the infamous vigilante detective known as Hawkshaw, disappeared without a trace. Now it falls to his protege to take up the mantle of Hawkshaw, learn the truth of his mentor's disappearance, and uncover the secrets of the most powerful people in the world... as well as what they're willing to do to keep those secrets buried.

Forgive me, I didn't mean to take that!
Murong Yingyue is the heiress to a famous cultivator clan. Except that’s she’s really not, and just a stand-in for the real heiress, who had been sickly since she was born. And she’s not really even herself. A transmigrator from Earth had transmigrated into the body of a female demoness, inheriting her memories. The transmigrator had then later died, transmigrating into her infant body! Ah, Why is it so convoluted? She grew up with those memories, and when she was finally sufficiently strong enough to travel the world safely, she eagerly embraced a leisurely life. When I was a demoness, I didn't know how to live without constantly being on guard and having to calculate every move I make. When I was on Earth, I didn't know a life without romantic drama and jealous women! I'll enjoy these two things you have missed, then! I'll do whatever I want and avoid troublesome people. So... How the f*ck did I get into this stupid cliche storyline? And as the main character, too? I don't want to be the main character! They attract so many senseless cannon fodders and powerful enemies, and furthermore, don't they attract romantic interests like it's no one's business? Someone help me! This will read better if you are familiar with wuxia novels. Discontinued. Apologies to all who liked the story. I feel that my writing style has changed since I last wrote for this story, so I tried to get myself to rewrite the story but I couldn't find any motivation to do so. I also lost the outline I had for this story and don't really remember what direction it was going in, so I want to leave the story as is. Thank you to the people who read and favorited this.
