Summary
“John couldn’t pinpoint exactly when his and Sherlock's relationship turned physical. Suddenly the casual touches were just there, like a habit none of them realized they had picked up. It was strange, yet so familiar and, John had to admit, very, very nice. ”
Sherlock is not interested in sex, and John would never label himself even bi-curious, yet they want to be together and make it work. Slow-burn relationship fic about navigating unfamiliar sexual desires in a and relationship where one part does not feel them.
(Also relationship-advice from Greg! Yay! And shopping at Tesco! Yay?) Rated Mature for later chapters, mostly fluff up until then (disclaimer on chapter).

Summary
When a 43-year-old man murders his wife and blames it on being mind-controlled by a telepath, Charles Xavier needs to navigate an increasingly hostile media climate that preaches the fear of “the other” as gospel.
A short one-shot about how a justice system struggles with the claims of super-powered interference, a claim that just four years ago would have been dismissed as insanity, but is now a reality in a world with mutants.

Summary
Xavier isn't exactly thrilled when Peter Maximoff calls to ask the professor to bail him out of jail, but he agrees to help. The circumstances of Peters arrest were suspicious and Xavier fears the worst - someone is targeting kids with physical mutations. If Erik finds out all hell will break loose.
An excuse to force Peter on Charles and Hank, by having them solve a mystery together! Mostly I just wanted to write about how Peter relates to others and how he might be slightly annoying to be around, even when he's being totally awesome.
Implied (perhaps future) Charles/Erik, Past DOFP. Characters introduced as story progresses. Using Magda Eisenharts back-story from the comics as Peters mom.

Summary
“The person seated at John Watson's shoulder was not a man. It was a carefully constructed facade, a well rehearsed stage play costumed to perfection. It was a wolf, leering out from underneath the flayed skin of countless sheep.“
A one-shot in which Sherlock Holmes goes to a dinner party and lets John consume human flesh because it’s the only way he can think of to keep them both alive, short term. Long term, he has to outwit Hannibal Lecter.

Summary
Written in 15 hours for the Come-at-once community on LJ. My prompt was adversity makes strange bedfellows (sic).
I adore Sherlock Holmes in all his guises, but it is in his original form, with all his Victorian idiosyncrasies, that I love him best.
Unbeta'd and briefly edited due to time constraints. I will return and fix any glaring errors once I have tracked down and captured a suitable beta.

Summary

Summary
“Ed never let me wear nice things like this,” he hears her as he strides by, intent on looking for some gas and a way the hell out of the traffic snarl they’ve landed themselves in. He thinks it’s a waste of time – but Rick is hell bent on heading to Fort Benning and fuck, it’s not like he has any better place to be.
Her words bother him as he works. They niggle at him for days, weeks, months after they leave that pathetic strip of concrete – the last place they saw that little girl alive. He thinks about it – the drab tans and browns that blend into nothingness that he’s seen her in. He thinks of the smile on her face as she’d pressed that red fabric against her chest and held it there. She’s quiet – pale and colourless since they left the farm. It’s like he can see the colour bleed out of her right before his very eyes. He wants her to smile again.
Ed never let me.
Well. Fuck that, he thinks. He’ll show that son of a bitch.
