Summary
The problem, she figures, is that she's never been the kind of person to make up her mind one way or the other and stick to it. There's always another option, another way. You don't make it to world-class journalist from teenage pop star without thinking of all the escape routes. (Post-finale fix it.)

Summary
Ever since he’d gotten his collar deactivated and gone off the grid, he’d been one of the most valued members of the resistance, at all of thirteen years old. He was the best courier, the best scout, one of the best thieves, though he liked to call it ‘proactive scavenging.’
And no one else could do what he could do. No one could keep up.

Summary
LIMBIC SYSTEM - An awareness creeps up on you. A mass lies hidden in your dead angle, soaking in some lurid, acidic sauce. There is nothing elegant, perfect, Diophantine about it. No insights spring from it. It’s bloated and shameful, the ball of meat surrounding you...This is a terrible line of questioning, and will only lead to more awareness of the meat-thing.
- (Plunge back into the fathomless deep)
- No, I wanted to know about the ex-something.
- Uh, what was that word that started with a D?*
Dr. Harry Du Bois, unhinged genius mathematician, wakes up to a world that expects far, far more than the alphabet out of him.

Summary
He was an opening act, sometimes, or just the weird vagrant at sound check. He’d show up, connect his guitar, and strum out those chords, make the air quake with the shape of what he’d lost. Those chords felt like the closest thing to memory he had left, the nearest thing to truth in the shattered shambles of his life.
He was mid-performance when the Doctor realised he’d once again locked eyes with the brunette, her wide brown eyes calling to him from out of the crowd. And he wondered, in the fleeting moment their gazes met and held, if she was the only one who understood what the melody really meant, who might understand the carved-out pain inside him, the ache that not even the music could accurately convey.

Summary
“If Jane Austen demands I go to a ball, who am I to argue?” Clara laughed.
Canon-compliant Valentine's Day fluff, set between Last Christmas and The Magician's Apprentice. Writer's block, waltzing, and hand kissing, as only Whouffaldi can do.

Summary
"I hated you for staying. After high school. You were supposed to be the one of us that got out of here. You and Kurt and the others. You were supposed to be everything you promised the world you'd be."
Rachel could hear all the things he wasn't saying. She didn't want to. High school was a decade ago.
"You were supposed to be better Rachel."
Maybe they were putting words to all those feelings.
"You were supposed to end up in jail before your twenty-first birthday. Life isn't about supposed to Noah."

Hold Tight and Pretend It's a Plan by Rynna_Aurelius

Summary
Olympus has fallen.
The second Gigantomachy has ended far differently than the first, and in Gaea's triumph, the world has been torn apart. But the Fates have seen what ends their failed meddling have brought, look on at the dead—and undo what should never have happened the only way they possibly can.
Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon, is returned to his twelve-year-old self, memories intact and determined to save everyone he can. But he is not alone.
The Moirai underestimated the strength of the Lord of Time when stealing his power, and there is something about this particular demigod brat that intrigues him. . .
Perseus Jackson came roaring to life with a violent gasp, green eyes wild. After a moment of panicked flailing and struggling to breathe, his fear-filled gaze settled upon a girl with blonde hair and stormy grey eyes, her face stern and unimpressed.
"You drool in your sleep."
