Summary: A White Collar A/U set in 18th Century Vienna. Neal is a composer struggling with the orchestration of his greatest work, and one of the most scandalous ever written. Peter Burke, a wealthy English nobleman, has come to him with an intriguing offer – to fund the production of that opera. But Neal is wary and becomes even warier when he's summoned to the Burkes' quarters by Lady Elizabeth Burke.

Earlier chapters: Orchestration – Prelude (Andante) | Orchestration – First Movement (Adagio).

Author’s Note: Written for my dearest friend, theatregirl7299, on the occasion of her birthday. She has been waiting so patiently for me to continue this work-in-progress and eventually, I just may finish it. Eventually.

I hope you have had a wonderfully special birthday, my friend.

Additional author's notes at the end.

Summary: Last May, I did a three-sentence A/U prompt meme, where I asked readers to give me an A/U prompt and a pairing or character. The challenge was to write a complete story in three sentences. All told, I filled 106 prompts. Some of these are tiny tags to existing fics, others are clearly the start of something major.

The prompts range from crossovers and fusions to historical a/us to some very creative and challenging scenarios. Thank you to everyone who left prompts for me, I hope you have a chance to enjoy all of these again.
