    Summary

    “Watson should not involve himself in this case either, Sherlock,” Mycroft said, tone mixed between the sternness of an older brother, and the resignation of one who knew his sibling too well.

    Summary

    What if Kent wasn't reassured by Chandlers talk at the crossroads? What if he'd been right not to be?

    I've decided to rewrite a lot of this, the plot remains the same but I didn't really like it. So, this is the new and, and what I believe to be, improved version! :D

    Summary

    Benoit remembers feeling nigh on ten years old standing in a church that wasn't really anything like the one he'd grown up in, staring at the back of a man he'd spent the night watching in the foreground of boxing rings and the backgrounds of hate-filled sermons, not often speaking for himself. Thinking it was a mistake to be there at all.

    He remembers staring at the single blurry freeze frame of Monsignor Wicks' tirade against a visiting gay couple where Father Jud was visible in the midst of the camera pan to the couple storming out. He looked... pained, maybe? Sick? Small. He wasn't looking at Wicks, or the couple, or the camera.

    He remembers Geraldine calling him back, for the fourth or fifth time, her name obscuring Jud's eyes. He remembers deciding to do his job, no matter the tangle in his gut.

    He remembers being surprised at every turn by the shape of man Father Jud was, and he remembers leaving with every answer but one.

    OR

    Benoit Blanc is loud and proud enough to often avoid coming out. But maybe it's only plausible deniability skirting the ire of his Catholic priest, no matter how much he wants to believe. Blanc spends a year trying and failing to not make it Jud's problem.

    Summary

    Stiles Stilinski is on vacation.

    Theoretically.

    New York seems like a perfectly reasonable place to spend his enforced time off, especially with family nearby and absolutely no intention of getting involved in anything work-related.

    Really.

    Or at least, that's what he'll say if anyone asks.

    Summary

    What was the importance of a soulmate, to someone without a soul? If Dean swore this version of Sam was not his brother, despite all the evidence, then why continue to act like he was?

    “You don’t have to protect me anymore.” Sam said, matter of fact.

    Broad shoulders went still, Dean’s back rigid and stiff. “Yes I do.”

     

    __

     

    Tucked away in the bathroom that morning, Sam resolved he still couldn’t fully recognize himself. He practiced a smile in the mirror, squinted his eyes and scrunched his nose, the way he naturally used to.

    With everything stripped away, no sense of self, Sam realized that there was nothing else left inside.

     

    __

     

    TLDR; Sam sees the world a little differently without a soul.

    Summary

    When a citizen of Mondstadt is found to be involved in a series of brutal kidnappings across Fontaine, the Knights of Favonius are given an ultimatum from none other than the Hydro Archon herself: either clean up their mess and catch the guilty culprit, or have their Grand Master— Acting or non— face trial. The accusation? Concealing person from arrest. The penalty? Life sentence.

    The main issue, Jean thinks as her stomach sinks at the contents of Focalors’ missive, is that the suspected criminal has ties with the Order. Which means that some of her men could be accomplices. That they can’t be trusted to be sent to Fontaine.

    And that leaves Jean with only one person to plead for help.

    Or; upon Jean’s request, Diluc travels to Fontaine to help take care of a case which so happens to be under the investigation of someone who goes by the name of the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide.

    Summary

    Dick, Jason and Tim spend a week in Wayne Mansions in Monte Carlo with Bruce.

    Except, they're not here on vacation; they're here to Agatha Christie the shit out of their dad, who has, unfortunately, been cloned into multiple near-indistinguishable copies by an interdimensional doppelganger, and it's up to them to find the real Bruce Wayne before time runs out.

    It's a good thing that they're all professional vigilantes, who would never let their reckless sexual affairs, ongoing commitment issues, or poor parental relationships get in the way of getting the job done.

    Summary

    John's litany of cures didn't work, and Dean is still cursed to live life while shrunk to a few inches tall. Worse, their dad seems to have left Dean's case on the backburner for the sake of hunting some random werewolf. Once Sam is dragged into the hunt, Dean knows he has to find a way to keep his brother safe, even if the curse makes that almost impossible. Besides, his next idea for a cure is definitely going to work. What's one little hunt in the meantime?

    A continuation of "On the Shorter Side", which is inspired by the Brothers Apart series.

    Summary

    Mrs. Hudson had been having quite a nice, peaceful morning. She’d woken up to cheery sunlight, then started her day by watering the houseplants and preparing some cut flowers. After breakfast for both herself and her tenants, she’d shown up a client to Mr. Holmes, and then planned to do some work in the kitchen.

    But just after she checked the amount of ice in the refrigerator, making a note of how much she must ask for at tomorrow’s delivery, shouting echoed through the house.

    Summary

    Two wizards walk into a therapist’s office... What sounds like the beginning of a bad joke becomes much more when war-torn Harry Potter, now a seasoned Auror, is forced by his superior and best friend Hermione Granger to attend a Muggle support group, where he meets, of all people, his old school rival Draco Malfoy and this is just the beginning of an very unusual love story.

     

    Harry realizes that Draco is right. He's no longer the abandoned boy under the stairs at the Dursleys. He's bloody Harry Potter. His word carries weight now. He can use it. He can assert himself.
    He imagines what it would be like. He watches Malfoy walk away through the rain, and it feels bloody good to finally be powerful instead of always so damn helpless. But then something snaps back in his head, like a rubber band. A feeling, perhaps, or a memory.
    Draco still looks at him. Up close, Harry notices how worn his clothes are. Even the green outdoor jacket has dark edges on the sleeves and is definitely two sizes too big for his slender frame.
    "No," Harry finally replies, shaking his head. "I don't do that. I'm not like you."

    Summary

    Единственная цель HK800 — выслеживать и уничтожать девиантных андроидов до того, как они станут реальной угрозой для человеческой расы. Холодный, бесчувственный и совершенно безжизненный, андроид полон решимости выполнить свою миссию и не позволить ничему встать у него на пути.
    Однако, когда HK800 начинает работать в паре с детективом-человеком, Коннором Андерсоном, его миссия оказывается под угрозой, не только из-за впечатляющей способности его напарника вставать на пути, но и из-за растущей нестабильности, поражающей его систему.

    Summary

    After surviving the Battle of Hogwarts, a long convalescence, and a short trial, Snape walks free and promptly vanishes from Wizarding society. Six years pass before he shows his face again. A lot can change in six years, and a romantically disillusioned and inebriated Harry hits Snape up for a friends-with-benefits arrangement. After all, they share an experience most people have never had: they both know what it's like to be dead. Their liaison works surprisingly well until Harry's reckless behaviour as an Auror leads to unethical practices and personal calamities, and things start to fall apart.

    Summary

    Ordinarily, Watson sprang out of bed quite easily when Holmes awakened him for a case. Right now, though, he could hardly even keep his eyes open.

    “It’s only…” He blinked at his clock, struggling to make sense of it. “It’s early.”
