    Summary

    She calms down, one of her hands tentatively rests on his chest. They stay in silence for some seconds as he accommodates her body in his arms, treasuring the way her fingers sneak up when she doesn’t pay them attention, accidentally brushing the tips of his hair.

    “Show me,” he eventually whispers against her temple, as his hand slides along the middle of her back.

    “Show you what?”

    He chuckles, inhaling her suspicion and the sweet lemon in her hair. “Show me where you’re hurt.”

    Summary

    "Be honest, sir," I said, scrabbling for the left flipper, "I look like a moron."

    "I’ve seen you look moronic before, Peter," Nightingale said, flicking the wheel right and sending us careening down a side street and me thudding against the left-hand door. "This does not even, as you put it, 'crack the top ten.'"

    Summary

    In retrospect, leading with it was probably a mistake.

    “You—wait, what?”

    “Never mind,” Scott says. “Never mind, it—you're back now, everything is fixed, it's fine. Everything's fine. There's just… some stuff I need to talk to you about.”

    “You had a thing? With an FBI agent?” Hope looks like she can't work out whether she's angrier that Scott maybe-sort-of-cheated on her—does it count as cheating when one of them’s nothing but a pile of ash, Scott's not clear on the ethical parameters there—or whether it's just that he kind of fell into bed with the long arm of the law.

    “Jae’s not—well, he is, but—look, it's complicated. It just sort of, it happened, okay? It was a weird time for everyone.”

    “Yeah, so I hear.” Hope takes a deep breath, pinches the bridge of her nose. “Okay. Fine. Tell me how you managed to sleep with Agent Woo, and we’ll go from there.”

    “Yeah,” Scott says. “Okay,” and wonders where, exactly, to start.

    Summary

    When a client turns up with her brother abducted by a shady British corporation, Hardison and his crew team up with his Nana and two cops he's pretty sure are Aurors to rescue an innocent young man from a real live evil witch.

    Or: a case that makes for a deeply frustrating file in Peter's records, and a story that Hardison is never going to tell Nate and Sophie.

    Edit in 2021: My worldview has evolved since I wrote this fic, and I just wanted to say, this fic is not an endorsement of the real life Metropolitan Police. Abolish policing and prisons.
