Summary
This is the day that marked the Holy and Blessed Union of Dean Winchester and Jo Harvelle.
The merging of prominent bloodlines is always a grand occurrence, but breeding pedigree hunter families like Winchester and Harvelle is something to be rejoiced. It is also something to be meticulously planned, which thankfully the Host is very good at.
Or, the romantic comedy where Dean Winchester and Jo Harvelle are destined to get married, Castiel is given the task of playing matchmaker and fails terribly, the entire Heavenly Host becomes a sitcom audience, God warns against male pregnancy, and Jimmy Novak is incredibly unimpressed with angels in general.

Summary
Strictly speaking, Joe doesn’t date omegas.
His parents have been drilling that notion into his skull since he’s presented at the age of fifteen: an omega is serious business. The risk of heat-bonding is always too high, and no one wants to deal with an alpha acting like an idiot because they can’t get over their stupid, primal urges. They don’t live in the Dark Ages anymore. There are suppressants and shit.
So, no, Joe doesn’t date omegas. But he definitely doesn’t pass an opportunity to fuck one.
It’s March 2020, and Joe is a young alpha on the last week of his backpacking trip through Italy.
Before heading home, he makes one last stop in the city of Genoa, where he meets a beautiful omega named Nicky at an underground party. They hit it off right away, and Nicky takes Joe back to his place. The sex is mind-blowing, but it’s supposed to just be a one-night stand.
That’s until they wake up to the news of the Lockdown.

Summary
They sit in the quiet half-dark, too lazy to turn on the light. A lone sunbeam illuminates Nicky's eye, his nose.
'I don't know about changing the world,' Joe says finally. 'That sounds like I want to do it all by myself. I just want to do my bit. So we can all be a bit happier tomorrow than we are today.'
'You and me, too?'
For a moment, Joe thinks this might turn into the talk he had been giving Nicky, about the importance of taking breaks. But Nicky is quiet after that, squinting into the sun, and suddenly, Joe isn't quite so sure what to reply.
'I hope so,' he says finally. 'I hope so.'
When the world grinds to a halt around them, Joe and Nicky are forced to navigate who they are (and who they are to each other) from the confines of a flat in Northern Italy.
A little love story about the things that are important in life.

Summary
The team is woken by a dream of a new immortal. He’s easy enough to track down - Nicolò di Genova, Italian, age 30 - but… he’s not exactly what they were expecting.
“Copley,” Andy began, her voice surprisingly cool and collected. “Tell us what we’re looking at here.”
“This is precisely why I wanted to do my due diligence,” Copley explained. “From what you’ve all told me about your pasts, I was expecting a soldier or something along those lines. But you’re looking at Father di Genova.”
“He’s… a priest,” Joe said slowly, wide-eyed and disbelieving.

Summary
Nile’s eyes are darting between them both, obviously thrown off by the open aggression, and Joe sighs. This is not the first impression he would have liked to make. Across from him, Nicky’s mouth is pressed into a thin line. “I’m sorry, Nile,” Joe says. “Nicky and I had a complicated beginning, and now we find it too easy to slip into arguments.”
Nicky closes his eyes and breathes in deeply through his nose. “Yes,” he says. “Things often become more heated between us than we mean them to.”
Or: Joe decided to forge his own path in 1102, and it takes the events at Merrick Pharmaceuticals to shake up the status quo.

Yusuf doesn't know very much. He knows he lives in a small place, he likes strawberries and doesn't like the cold. There's a man with him, the man with the soft voice. He takes care of Yusuf and helps him learn.

Summary
Vampires and werewolves are going missing. Both communities are on edge and vampire Prince Yusuf Al-Kaysani is tasked by the King to find out what is happening before this starts another war. In an unprecedented display of cooperation, the wolves send one of their own to work with him on the case.
It's a nice sentiment, Yusuf thinks. It would be more helpful, however, if they hadn't sent the same werewolf who almost tore him apart on the battlefield during the Blood Wars, centuries ago. The same werewolf Yusuf almost bled dry in retaliation.
The same werewolf who is now watching him with pale eyes from across the room, and smells so fucking delicious Yusuf is losing his mind.

Summary
Joe squints a little. “So you were born in what, the 1060s?”
Nicky nods. “1069, I believe. I died during the first crusade. For the first time, anyway.”
“Wow,” Joe says. “You are very well preserved.”
Joe's a millennial with student loan debt, a dead-end career as a personal trainer, and a lumpy futon for a bed. He's also the new immortal.
