Summary
What happens after Kerry walks away in the end of Companions of the Night? The natural progression of their relationship was for them to get together for a time, for Kerry to fall head over heels for Michel, for her to have to make the ultimate decision again. In a perfect world, that would be their happily ever after. But it wasn't. Now Kerry's been living without Michel for four years. She's moved on; she's happy. Of course, that's not the end of the story.

Summary
Kerry awoke with a start. Her heart was pounding in fear, all her senses on alert. She couldn't move, couldn't breathe. She felt paralyzed. It took her less than a moment to realize that this was because someone was in her room.

Summary
In her mind, Kerry had viewed vampires as creatures with higher intellectual skills than humans, with the ability to catch on to new languages and analyse situations quickly, methodically, and with a precision that would rival computers or MENSA level geniuses.

Summary
It was like slipping into an alternate universe where everything was exactly the same as in the last one, except shittier. Like spilling water on a box of puzzle pieces and then trying to fit the water damaged pieces together. It mostly worked if you forced it. But you never had to before.
Early Season 3 AU. The Master is successfully killed, but his death doesn’t cause the death of all strigoi. Instead, all existing strigoi become unable to pass on the contagion. The survivors begin the arduous task of taking back their world from an enemy that’s still deadly despite no longer being able to replenish its numbers. When Dutch dies during what was supposed to be a routine mission, Eph and Fet’s relationship becomes more complicated.

Summary
“Are you hitting on me?”
The blunt inquiry draws a bark of laughter from Sanji. He pinches the bridge of his nose until it dies down, then refocuses on her. “Here I thought I was being obvious.”
“You were,” she admits, lowering her lashes, “but I don’t know why you’re doing it.”
He gives a nonchalant shrug. “It’s how some people break the ice.”
“Do you do that to other men? Just say what you mean.”
“Ah,” Sanji smiles, on the brink of more laughter, “you certainly are something. Where did you say you were from?”
Another dangerous question. “I didn’t.”
***
In which a young woman becomes stranded after managing to escape the oppressive environment that she grew up in and encounters a peculiar band of pirates. Among them, she soon discovers that there just might be a suitable place for her in the world, and a safe place in someone’s heart.

Summary
Survival. She could handle that. Living? That shit was hard. If visions of gore and faceless figures hadn't driven her off the deep end yet, then an outbreak of vampires in the heart of New York would try its damnedest. However, what did sanity matter?
She'd never been normal.
~ AU of my fic Derezzed. What if Rae and Vaun met differently. Begins mid season 2 and will follow future seasons loosely with book/comic then my own imagination. ~

Summary
"You seem to think we have all the fucking time in the world to figure this thing out."
"Don't we?"
"No, you do. I don't. That's the problem, Vaun. I'm just a man, and I don't think you really understand what that means."
Gus has been winging it since the start of this whole thing. With his mother, brother, and Felix gone, he's gotten even more reckless. All Gus is really doing is buying time, until a particular group of strange Strigoi are in need of his assistance in taking down The Master. He's all but happy to risk it all for a little revenge and a handsome pay-check. In the process of becoming their Sun Hunter, he forms an unexpected connection with the half Strigoi, Vaun. It's the only thing he can do not to fall completely over the edge.

A woman with an uncertain future finds herself in an unlikely alliance with Quinlan and Gus.
5/18/2016 - To readers new and old, this fic may be dead. I work 60-80 hrs a week now and have very little time or muse left at end of the day. Feel free to bookmark and check back every so often. I appreciate the continued interest and pleas for updates but at this moment there is nothing pending.
I do not own The Strain nor any of the characters from the show featured in this work.

Summary
Sandra Edwards’ fun-packed months with Eichhorst in the winter of 1989-90 have yet to be fully documented.
Until now…
Seriously though, how much fun can you have with an undead Nazi who has no man-junk?
You’ll be surprised…(Even if you’ve read the Captives scenes!)
This is “the whole weird Sandra/Eichhorst whatever the hell it is” that runs through the Another Season series, but turned into a romance as per some advice I received. Sex now guaranteed if there’s sufficient interest.

The world was still going to hell, but at least her dead mother’s voice had been silenced. And there he was again, the creature that had seemingly silenced it. Dead and living? Violent and rough? Pleasure and pain? Yes. Did she still want all of it while crying and screaming? Yes.

You’ve lived a relatively easy and privileged life. When a new and deadly parasitic illness sweeps through the city, that fact remains true as you’re welcomed into the safety of the Stoneheart HQ; being Eldritch Palmer’s niece has its perks after all.
