Summary
It's a particularly cold night, much too cold for such a tropical place as Okinawa. Langa's only solution is to crank out one of his old turtlenecks from living in Gatineau, where he ends up catching himself in a rut of emotions. He decides in a panic that his only solution is to talk to Reki.

Yeah, I know it makes you nervous
But I promise you, it's worth it
To show 'em everything you kept inside
Don't hide, don't hide
Too shy to say, but I hope you stay
Don't hide away
Come out and playTitle named after the song by Billie Eilish

Summary
“I get that you're difficult by nature,” Akuna says, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor of Cal's cell next to him like they're not interrogator and prisoner, but just casual acquaintances hanging out. He cracks open his own bottle of water and takes a sip, then continues, “or Lank wouldn't be losing more of his hair trying to break you. But when I tell you to drink, you gotta drink, Kestis.”
Cal snorts. “What,” he croaks, “I have to get better so you can be the one to break me instead?”
Akuna pauses for a moment, then shrugs and nods. “Pretty much.”

Cal’s been stuck in ISB custody for a while now and he refuses to give them any information on Cere's location. Agent Akuna’s been tasked with fixing that.

Summary
He carefully removed the gauze covering its upper quadriceps and guided the Soldier into the oversized shower stall. It was capable of performing its own cleansing routines, but this handler had initiated shared showers early in their cohabitation. It was not irregular, except that all previous handlers had used this time for recreational purposes as well. The Captain seemed only to take satisfaction in thoroughly cleansing the body, as one might perform maintenance on a valuable rifle. A fitting comparison, if it had not jammed and misfired today.

Summary
Jim Kirk has loved Spock and pined after him throughout the entirety of their five-year mission. He thought, hoped and dared to believe that today, the day of their wedding, would be the happiest day of his life. But there's just one problem. Well, two problems. Okay, maybe three. Spock doesn't love Jim in return, the marriage is a sham, and now — as their wedding guests grow impatient and Jim's hope fades — Spock has gone missing.
Facing down a ticking clock, Starfleet's scrutiny, and profound misconceptions about each other's intentions, Jim and Spock had nine days to decide if the lie was worth it to keep Spock on the Enterprise. Now, it seems Spock has made that decision.

Summary
[Funeral Director/Florist AU]
Coincidence is a funny thing. In terms of employment, the pair was symbiotic. It’s no surprise that given proximity over time, and a little antagonistic flirting, a relationship might spring up. In terms of heritage, they should have killed each other on sight.
It was never going to be simple, however much they might wish it.- Language:
