    Summary

    "I was wrong about you," she said in quiet amazement. "I thought - all this time, I was hiding who I was because I thought that surely you'd kill me the second you discovered - sorcerers hate vampires. You and your friends are always talking about equality between all, but never once have you talked of my kind in your Future. But you didn't try to harm me. You tested my loyalty."
     
    "No," Enjolras said. "I've never doubted your loyalty."

    (After Enjolras discovered Grantaire's true nature, they strike an unconventional deal in a definitely unconventional way)

    Summary

    The sheriff watched him for a moment, then he sighed and turned slightly. He reached out to open a cabinet door beside him, and pulled out a shelf. It was on a track, so it rolled out of the cabinet fairly easily, and held a small CCTV. Derek frowned and inched his chair to the side a little bit so he could get a better angle.

    He was looking at a teenager, or someone at least young enough to be the same age as Scott. He was sitting on a bed in what looked to be a larger room, the area he was in surrounded by four glass walls, with his legs crossed and head tilted.

    He was also staring directly into the camera, as if he knew someone was watching. A creepy smile slowly slid onto the teen’s face, and he held up one hand, wiggling his fingers in a slow, eery wave.

    Derek felt his mouth run dry. He didn’t know who this kid was, but he didn’t like him.

    “Who is that?” he asked quietly.

    “That,” said the sheriff, “is my son.”

    Summary

    "Look at me," Laura commanded. The druid remained still, but Derek could see the way his lip twitched and his heart beat picked up just the tiniest bit. Laura grabbed at his chin, forcing his head up. "Look at me."

    At first, there was no response, a split second of hesitation, and then the druid's eyes came up, ghosting over Laura's face for a moment and then focusing on some distant point past her ear.

    "Good enough." Laura muttered, letting go and turning to Derek. "Get this one," she snapped.

    Summary

    The man he’s riding with is a nice guy, Dean thinks. Cas, is his name. About 30 years old.

    Dean had thought he was nice from the first time the guy fucked him. He wasn’t too rough about it, even though he paid enough that he could be. He touched Dean’s hair when Dean blew him, which made Dean embarrassingly hard.

    He doesn’t get a lot of affection, out here on the road, living truckstop to truckstop. It’s why even the hint of it had had Dean gambling, offering his ass up for the next few weeks if the guy agreed to take him along for the ride.

    ************

    Dean is a truckstop hooker. Cas is a trucker. He hitches a ride with Cas, planning to head out towards California and his brother. What he finds along the way, though, might make it hard to get out.

    Summary

    Derek is about to leave, content with the smell of blood as proof that the Fury is dead when he hears it.

    A heartbeat.

    It’s faint and uneven and even with its help, it takes Derek a full minute of scanning the clearing before he finally spots the small heap that must be the human. It’s down on the far side of the canyon, almost completely hidden by a tall oak tree and–Derek jumps down before he thinks about it.

    He knows what he has to do. Furies are dangerous. Furies are fire and smoke and a funeral he barely remembers. He lands almost silently and makes sure his hands are fully shifted into claws and then slowly moves forward.
