New(ish) Entr(ies) from "Loose Threads"--Bending of the Pleats and The Vendel Brooch

I didn't post these when I wrote them for LS because life's been hectic here. First, two all-nighters (and most of a weekend) for work, and then a lost-night's sleep THIS WEEKEND because Sugar decided to yell at 3-4 in the morning, several different times. But the LS posts are here and here, if you're interested.
