Summary
“My brother. Where is he? He - he was with me when I went to sleep. What have you done with him?” Sam can feel the panic starting to claw up his throat, thinking about what might have happened to Dean, making his hands sweat - “And where are we? Where have you brought me?”
“Sam?” the man says again and man, it’s like a broken record, “Sam what the fuck,” and this is a waste of time, they’ve already established the man knows Sam’s name. Sam glances at the door, wonders if he can make a run for it. The man mutters something under his breath that sounds a lot like ‘you’ve got to be fucking kidding me.’
---
Sam wakes up aged 9 and with zero clue who the weird man in the bed next to his is. They deal.

Summary
Arthur is a global singing superstar, struggling to deal with his rapid rise to fame.
Eames is the London police officer who talks him out of jumping off his hotel balcony.
---
He thinks of Arthur, gently crooning on the radio as he plays a lazy jazz piece, fingers tripping up the keys, his voice a warm familiar cadence as Eames waltzs Ariadne around their postage stamp of a kitchen on a Sunday morning.
He thinks of the headlines - YOUNG STAR PLUNGES TO HIS DEATH IN TRAGIC SUICIDE - thinks of Ariadne, how she’d inevitably cry for weeks, of the thousands of fans who would line the streets of New York for his funeral-
And then he thinks of this 21-year-old kid in front of him, feet dangling into nothingness, shivering from the cold.

Summary
“I feel like a goddamned penguin,” Leonard announced at large to the table, in case that wasn’t entirely clear.
Scotty sniggered but then caught Leonard’s eye and made the smart move of ducking behind the floating orb centrepiece.
“A very well-groomed penguin then, Doctor,” said Chekov, cheerily.
____
Leonard doesn't do suits. Fortunately, he's brought round to the idea.
(A fic of suit-appreciation, Bones-appreciation and sappy-conversations-under-the-stars-appreciation.)

Summary
“That’s not fair Eames, we’re not breaking up, you know it’s just-“
“A safety precaution, yeah yeah.”
Because he knows. They both do. ‘In our line of work...’ is one of Eames’ absolute least favourite phrases, but it’s also usually prelude to his least favourite truths. Truths like the fact that really, they both know they’re a disaster waiting to happen, that someday, probably not too far in the future, one of them will be used as leverage against the other and it’s going to fucking work, because they’re too far gone now, too invested, too emotionally attached and too stupidly in love-

Summary
"I may throw up on you.
It’s a hell of a thing to have written on the skin right over his heart. A romantic spot for the least romantic words in the history of the universe. Jim thinks he’s grateful for it though. His words help him manage his expectations for his life from an early age."--
This is the story of two men who don't believe in soulmates but meet them anyway, and all of the crap that follows.
