Title: Legerdemain or The Enchanting of Charles East
Genre: Fantasy, Steampunk, Alternate History
Rating: PG- some swears. Ladies cover your sensitive ears.
Summary: In 1800s London-Aldwych, stage magic always comes second to the scientific and engineering advancements that are quickly becoming the new marvel of the age. But Charles East (The Enchanting East, Monday-Saturday at 1:30PM, half-price on Sundays at 4PM) stumbles upon other magic that is practiced by an altogether other sort of Londonite. And sometimes when you pull a rabbit out of a hat,  there is no place to put him back.

I am so very sorry. T_T Er...I'm halfway done with the next chapter, if that's any consolation?

I get home very late over here since I have to take the train, and there's only one line that goes to Nishi-Kawaguchi. So I usually write very late at night, but then I don't sleep and doze off during lab hours in the middle of coding.

So I decided to ease off for a bit. I was running out of steam, as it will XD

Public transport can take forever, take your time with the chapter you need to sleep, we'll all still be about and eager to read it when you post!

That, and I have to fight through a whole crush of tenacious Japanese people when I switch stations. I always seem to end up on the 8:30-9PM train, which is PACKED
