    Summary

    In his first life, L died in the arms of his greatest enemy.

    In his brief second one, he died alone.

    And in his third, too-long life, L died anticipating finally getting even with the man who'd won their game one too many times.

    And Light Yagami? If he'd known this is what picking up the Death Note would bring....well, he'd probably still have done it anyway.

    Summary

    The aftermath of a mission isn't usually like this.

    But then, this was no usual mission.

    The others are lost in their remembered worlds, repressing like talented amateurs, and it’s painful to watch. Bruce is no great actor, but he has eaten repression for so long now that it’s effortless; no-one can see how galling it tastes to him. These people, though. They can’t hide it from him, not him. He’s a professional.

    Summary

    “Call me Jim. I’ve heard a lot about you in the last hour. Is it true that you’ve suggested looking into the Terran botanical process for oxygen production as a model for mechanical air recycling?”

    Spock lifts one perfect brow. “That is not generally the first question I am asked by people aware of my work.”

    “Jim and air have a history,” Uhura says, and Jim could strangle her until he sees something change in Spock’s gorgeous, gorgeous eyes about it.

    “Air and I are on perfectly fine terms.” He self-consciously touches the mouthpiece of his breather, which is in its magnet holster at his hip just like it always has been, to really punctuate what a massive liar he is.

    Summary

    Spock knows what humans say about him. His ears are too keen to miss the whispers. He has been referred to as Kirk’s pet. As his servant. As his bodyguard. As his shadow.

    A relationship does not exist among humans that corresponds to what Spock is to Kirk. In Earth’s past, perhaps, it did, but it has been lost. He has read enough Earth literature to have found it in Lancelot and Arthur, Sam and Frodo, Olivier and Roland. But there is no name for it, no reference to search for. And when humans recognize it for what it is, there is this trace of disgust. Because it is unequal. Because they feel it is shameful to be in the position that Spock is.

    It is the deeply held loyalty of one man toward another. It need not be returned; most often it is not, or not in the same way. Spock felt some of that for Pike. But what he feels for Kirk staggers him with its strength. It speaks deeply to an instinct within him which he cannot deny. Not that he chooses to protect Kirk. Not that he wants to follow him. That he must. That he will. That, in the second between danger and thought, his body moves on its own.

    Summary

    Izzy looks over at Stede, gingerly attempting to coo at a cat that hates him while she shreds his expensive, fancy slippers to pieces. His heart aches in a new and terrible way that has nothing to do with Ed, for once. ‘If you’re sure.’

     

    The smile Stede gives him is warm, a weighty significance to it that Izzy doesn’t know how to read. ‘I am.’


    Or, Izzy finds himself at the centre of the ocean's weirdest found family, and acquires two boyfriends along the way.

    Summary

    Stede finds the house. When he comes back to their room at the inn, he won’t rest—won’t let Ed rest—until Ed’s seen it. His eyes are bright in that way that makes Ed’s guts feel scooped out with a spoon. So Ed hurries into his boots and goes with him.

    The once-white paint is stripped by weather and wear, a portion of the roof is caved in, and the spokes of the wraparound porch are all gnawed through by animals.

    Ed gazes up at the broken windows and the birds that have built nests there. At his side, Stede is waiting, rocking back and forth on his heels.

    "It’s perfect," says Ed.

    ***

    Or: Ed and Stede leave the island together, and they don’t look back.

    Summary

    Arthur let himself soften, turned to keep his eyes on the fire that glowed warm against the biting cold of the morning. “I know,” He said. “Things ain’t good for us right now, but… it ain’t safe. You know what the O’Driscolls are like, for folk like me.”

    “I’ve watched you kill, Arthur,” Said Pearson, and there was a flicker of that old fear deep in his eyes, never quite gone away. The smartest part of him still that blustering navy man taking command of the cooking to hide how terrified he was of them. Fear that was faint, but still sour, on the still air. “I’ve seen what you do to idiots who pick fights with us. You werewolves aren’t that fragile.”

    “We ain’t that strong, neither,” Arthur told him.

     

    The Pinkertons have been lost in the snow, and the law has bigger game on its mind. The O'Driscolls aren't as easy to lose.

    Summary

    “You guys are idiots,” Prompto says, but he’s hiding a smile behind his hand. Noctis can hear it plain as day. It sort of does something gravity-defying to his heart. “You kissed me like an hour ago, Noct.”

    “Yeah, but I worked for this one,” Noctis says, standing between Prom’s knees, resting dirty hands on those coeurl-print jeans, leaning in and in and in until their noses bump. “C’mon, Prom, I earned it.”
