    Summary

    Fated Foes. Fated Friends? Fated to be something more…? We’ll Meet Again follows the story of two of Fate’s finer creations. Two souls, handpicked by the divine herself, to walk the Earth together until the condition that breaks the spell which binds them is met. Through many reincarnations, living more lives than they could keep track of, John and Simon loath, laugh, live, and perhaps learn to love each other.

    Fate is to blame for a lot of things. Some of them good, some of them terrible. Some see her work in the little, bothersome moments, like forgetting your umbrella on the only rainy day in June. Others believe that she walks around with a ball of red yarn and ties it between the fingers of lovers as they sleep. Fate herself would say her actions are much, much larger than simply losing your keys or the trivialities of romance.

    We’ll Meet Again provides a glance into each of these fickle lives, where the men face trials, trivialities, and the huge challenge of coming to terms with their feelings. Feelings which, at the time, could land them in some very hot water.

    Summary

    Seeing him now was just like the first time. The concern in his eyes, staring back at her from the other side of the railing. But this time, there was something deeper, more familiar.

    Summary

    “Deal’s not a deal till we shake on it, pal.” the boy extended his hand. “The name’s Alastor.”

    Vincent looked him up and down warily, but accepted his hand. He gripped it tightly, and gave it a strong tug, just like his father had taught him. “I’m Vincent.” He deepened his voice just a smidge. 'You can always tell a real man apart from a daisy just from his handshake', his father always said.

    Alastor gave a slight giggle in response, seemingly amused by the bizarre greeting. Vincent still wasn’t sure if he was laughing at him or if he just laughed at everything. He found he didn’t care that much either way, now that his initial anger had passed. Alastor had a nice laugh.

    ---

    Murdermedia AU: Alastor and Vincent meet as children one fateful summer. For years to come, they will cause immutable impact in each others lives, for better and for worse.

    Summary

    “Holl-an-der.” Ilya’s voice was hoarse and cracked and slightly numb. He rounded his ‘H’ and placed an extra syllable between it. Shane had a very fleeting thought that he had never heard his name said so beautifully, and then crushed that feeling into a ball and shoved it right down.

    “Yes. Hi, Ilya.” He reached out, pressing his hands against the taped gauze at Ilya’s side, securing it down again. The other man grimaced and Shane, very so gently, apologised.

    The other man shook his head, said something Shane definitely did not understand in Russian, and brought his hand to meet Shane’s at his waist. A sharp spark that is definitely not something he wants to talk about right now, thank you, shoots up through his hand. A gun echoes in the distance.

     

    Or: Ilya is a soldier. Shane is a doctor. They meet in a makeshift hospital in the midst of World War One.

    Summary

    TL;DR: Crowley is a scientist. Aziraphale is a siren. The year is 1911, and the place is Antarctica. Also, there’s tons of kinky sex.

    [Fully written. 190k words. 42% smut. Updates every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.]

    The real-life Terra Nova Expedition, organised by the British Royal Navy, took place between 1910 and 1913 under the leadership of Captain Scott. His main goal was to win the race to the South Pole, but scientific research was a priority as well. Six of his men, collectively known as the Northern Party, spent most of 1911 on a remote beach that would turn out to be the world’s largest Adélie penguin rookery.

    In this story, Anthony J. Crowley (surgeon, zoologist, photographer) takes the place of Northern Party member George Murray Levick. I tried to stick as much as possible to the actual scientific facts and timeline of events, but some creative license did have to be taken.

    For example, there was no real-life monsterfucking at any point during the Terra Nova Expedition… as far as we know.

    Summary

    Prompt 77

    If you can’t tell I’ve been re-reading the Regeneration trilogy by Pat Barker and so this happened... Anyway.....

    Remus and Sirius met for the first time in the early days of the First World War and were lovers throughout their time in the trenches. Remus is an ambulance driver, seeing the aftermath of the carnage each day, while Sirius is an officer responsible for sending men (if you could call them that) to their death in No Man's Land. They find brief solace with each other but can never truly get close to each other. When Remus was injured and permanently disabled he broke off their relationship. Sirius, still struggling with shell shock after over a decade, had thought Remus had died years ago of his wounds. But when they meet unexpectedly fifteen years after the end of the war old feelings rekindle themselves despite changed bodies and minds.

    Summary

    Before, Yotsuba Iguro lived ignorantly, cruising through life due to bloodstained riches and dishonest people. When those were taken away from her due to her own clan’s actions, she lashed out at an innocent boy for simply escaping out of a crumbling, rotten cage that is her home.

    Now? "Yotsuba Iguro" stood before the child's cage, feeling not pity, but fury at the squandered potential of a child destined for greatness, cursing her clan's practices and short-sightedness.

    There's a saying "Radical problems require radical solutions." by a novelist she remembered Before.

    As she looked at the torch on her hands and on the oil-soaked walls and floors, she muses that she might as well put that into practice.

    Summary

    Lord Malfoy has been working for the department of mysteries since the Battle of Hogwarts in May of 1898. He proved his worth as a spy and double agent, and has been roundly celebrated as one of the Golden Quartet. Draco has never been satisfied, however, that the fifth member of their group was hidden from the public, and even less satisfied that no one in magical London has set eyes on Hermione Granger since the day after the battle, when she disappeared from St. Mungo’s.

    Now, in May of 1910, the muggle King Edward VII, has been killed by magic and Lord Draco Malfoy finds a surprise awaiting him when he consults with an expert at the British Museum while on the trail of the killers.

    Works somewhat within canon, books 1-4, if the books were set a hundred years before they were, then diverges.
