Summary
Wei Wuxian hasn’t felt peace in so long that to finally have it feels as if he were walking along the edge of a cliff. To one side of him, a green meadow, flush with grass so fresh it’s still supple and tender with youth, stretches as far as the eye can see. To the other side, the yawning abyss, waiting to swallow him whole.
It’s so strange, Wei Wuxian thinks, that this is where he should find peace.

Summary
The days where he would sing where always my favorite. He had a sweet voice, clear and musical, still light and airy with youth. I find myself wondering if his voice still sounds the same, after all of these years, or if it’s grown deep and gravely with age. I wonder if he still sings. He was always so shy about it. Sometimes I got the impression that I was the only person he would sing for. I’d like to believe that. Believe that I had a little part of him that no one else got to see.

Summary
Dying, trapped in a crack in the world, Jayce has lost almost everything- save the memories. And in the darkness those come out in terrible, technicolor clarity. Every victory, every failure, how it all began- and how it ended. Every single time he stepped over the edge. Every time he fell.
(Jayce hadn't thought anything of him at first- easy to overlook an unwanted bureaucrat- easier still, to overlook a cripple.)
(Something sly about it, the cast of that pale face. Just how bright those golden eyes were, in the black. They seemed to catch the light, reflecting it back, like those of a young fox.)
Of course, falling didn't always hurt. Once, he had fallen in love.

Summary
Don't let the title fool you, this is a fix-it.
(Epilogue to Crossing Lines, but can be read on its own)
***
There is a ring on Cas’ finger with a shining white surface, and he is holding a tall black scythe.“Cas?” Dean says again, with more fear this time. He can’t. He can’t do this. He can’t.
Chuck is staring at Cas too. They all are. Chuck’s eyes actually pop, nearly bulging, the surprise in his face tinged with something like rage.
“You!” he snaps. “You’re not even in this story, your part is long over. Why aren’t you dead? This isn’t even about you, it never was! Why, in my own damn name, aren’t you dead?”
Cas takes two steps forward.
“Good question,” he says, his voice all gravel, and swings Death’s scythe down in one long arc, lopping off Chuck’s head.

Summary
Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.
Frigging fantastic.
(Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)

Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.
