PROMPT: Childermass has discovered a spell to bring back *one* of the missing magicians but it requires a trade - if Jonathan Strange returns, then Childermass has to go into the darkness. He considers it only practical - Strange and can be reunited with his wife, and Norrell can still have someone to keep an eye on him. As he's putting affairs in order over here, though, no one understands why he's prepared to sacrifice life as he knows it for his former master - Segundus (they've formed a grudging friendship) doesn't; Arabella though she's grateful to get Jonathan back. Vinculus probably makes filthy expressions implying he *knows* why. They make the switch - bonus points for bittersweet BrOTP farewell between Norrell and Strange. And then! Childermass and Norrell reunion as fluffy and/or smutty as you feel like. And Norrell can show off his favorite places...
