Summary
Neal Caffrey does not know how to fish.
This would be fine, were it not for the fact that he may or may not have given Peter the impression that he does, and now Peter has decided that they're going on a weekend fishing trip together.
Neal very quickly realises that fishing is not the kind of activity he can improvise. He tries anyway. It...mostly works out in the end.

Summary
It's nearing the end of the autumn term at St Hilarion's, and Charlie Rowland is counting down the days until the summer, when he can be done with school for good. With three weeks back home looming, though, he's losing patience with his friends' idea of fun, and when they decide to sneak out after curfew one night, he doesn't go with them.
The day after, he wakes up from an awful dream of drowning with a coldness that he can't quite shake and an inexplicable sense that the world is a little dimmer than it used to be. And his friends seem to be holding a grudge against him, acting as if he's not even there.
Now, there's a boy who no one else can see and a girl who claims she can read minds trying to convince him that he knows them. The stories that they're telling him seem far too outlandish to be real. But when everything they tell him starts coming true, he has to wonder: what if they're right?

How Not To Bake A Cake With SecUnit and Perihelion by elusive_ellipsis
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
21 Jul 2025

Summary
ART's new big idea for promoting construct rights in the Corporation Rim is a how-to video series, starring Murderbot. The first time it manages to get Murderbot in front of a camera, it's for a cooking tutorial - specifically, baking a cake. Both of them are perfectly capable of following instructions, so it should be a gentle introduction to filming a video together.
ART has never made a cake before. Murderbot has also never made a cake before. Neither of them can actually eat. However badly you think this is going to go, it will probably be worse.

A Promise to the World: To Be Better Today by elusive_ellipsis for The_IPRE
Fandoms: Dead Boy Detectives (TV)

Summary
London, while a thriving metropolis packed with millions of people, was never quite as big as you needed it to be, and never small enough to get where you needed to be on time.
Crystal knew this, but it had never been demonstrated quite so plainly as when she had returned to London with her memories back, her mean girl tendencies curtailed, and had a great many people she wished to avoid. For a good few weeks, she had succeeded. She had almost begun to believe that she really would get the fresh start she'd been hoping for.
Then one of her old friends had died, and it had all fallen apart.

Summary
It's been a few months since Edwin told Charles that he was in love with him, and since returning to London, neither of them have brought it up again. Except now, Charles is reading romance novels tucked inside agency textbooks, and asking Edwin questions that he doesn't entirely know how to answer. What does it all mean - for Edwin, for Charles, and for their partnership?
A queerplatonic Payneland fic, written for Alexander_Writes as part of the DBDA Secret Pumpkin 2024 exchange!

Summary
First Three is late getting back to Preservation, then its social calendar seems to be full all the time.
Murderbot's disappointed, but it's not like it can just ask Three to spend time with it. Besides, if Three wanted to hang out, it would say so. Right?
---
Or: 5 times Murderbot won't admit it likes spending time with Three, and 1 time it finally gets over itself and does.
