Summary
“No, you don’t understand,” Wayne cut in, gesturing back at the abandoned warehouse at the edge of the taped-off scene. “These–kidnapping attempts–always start out the same way. Remove the clothes. Humiliate the victim. Make them feel powerless, so they’re less likely to fight back. Remove all sense of their personality so they’re more likely to comply–”
Jim tuned out his rant slightly, examining the small bats on Wayne’s boxers. Ignoring the fact that no underwear was meant to be worn that tight, the tiny decorations were almost…familiar.

Summary
Originally a standalone fic, the first installment has now spawned a trilogy because I've lost control of my life! Part 1 is a season 4 era slow burn; parts 2 and 3 explore AU versions of s5 and s6, respectively, where spuffy are in an established relationship throughout.
Parts 2 and 3 are planned/mostly written! Other fics in this universe, including missing scenes, bonus content, and possibly an AU s7 (but don't hold me to it) may be to come.

Summary
Don John wondered which of his half-brother's advisors had suggested Messina as the perfect place to dispose of the bastard prince, with its far away shores and loyal governor whose daughter had just reached marriageable age. What better way for Don Pedro to rid himself of that fraternal thorn in his side than to bind him in marriage to a small and distant land?

Summary
Funny word, wanting. It could mean desire, plain and not-so-simple; or it could mean a lack of something – a lack of something critical everybody else just seems to get.
