    Summary

    The first gig Dorothea helps Sylvain land is an extended stunt cameo in a stoner flick, a chance to fully commit to self-parody, playing a washed-up child star turned drug dealer. The wardrobe department outfits him in sunglasses and Hawaiian shirts. He grows some scruff and behaves like an acerbic dirtbag for two weeks. “Pitch-perfect casting,” writes the Tribune. Says Entertainment Weekly: “A familiar face in a nearly unrecognizable performance, Gautier looks like he’s having so much fun being loathsome.”

    -

    Ex-child actor Sylvain Jose Gautier makes a professional and romantic comeback.

    Summary

    Akira comes home at five with a handful of irises, which he hands to Yusuke. Yusuke is so surprised he almost drops them.

    “They don't have enough blooming days left, so we can't sell them,” Akira explains. Even after a subway ride there’s still dirt on him; a few crumbs of soil rain down on the floor as he takes off his bag. He smells earthy and fresh, like he’s been rolling around in a forest. “Thought you might want to paint them.”

    Yusuke stays at Leblanc for longer.

    Summary

    The village of Honnleath is a world away from everything Dorian is used to, as though it's been stuck in time or abandoned by it—he really can't say which. It's steeped in myth and mystery, though none so intriguing as the quiet, reclusive veteran that always seems so far away, even when they're sharing the same small stretch of the shore.

    --------------------

    or: the one where Dorian is an author, come to Honnleath to research his next story, and Cullen is a veteran struggling to keep afloat in the small village he grew up in. both out of their depth and their element, they turn unintentionally to each other.

    Summary

    In which Dorian is a special forces operative, Bull is his partner, and Cullen is the guy they're sent to rescue. Hijinks ensue.

    Written because I wanted a story where Dorian rescues Cullen from physical danger. Because I like rescue-fic, and mainly what I've seen is the other way around (Cullen rescuing Dorian).

    In the name of not leading people on...The E rating is for eventually (cf "slow burn" tag above): I'd say this is T rated until chapter 15, and it doesn't need the E rating until chapter 25. Just so's you know!

    ETA: ART!!! Because there are few things I like better than badass Dorian.

    Summary

    The Hanahaki Disease is an illness born from one-sided love, where the patient coughs up flower petals when they suffer from one-sided love. The infection can be removed through surgery, but the feelings disappear along with the petals.
    Hanzo Shimada is desperately in love with Jesse McCree -- the flower petals he coughs up whenever McCree so much as looks his way are plenty of evidence of that. It is unfortunate, then, that McCree utterly despises him.

    Summary

    "Well now, aren't you the handsomest man who ever did try to kill me?"

     

     

    The words of a soulmate were always determinate. They dictated a large part of each person's life. Hanzo had always been unfortunate enough to know that his soulmate will die by his hand. He is a Shimada assassin and they do not try.

    If he's wrong, though, what is he supposed to say back?

    Summary

    On a dark night long ago, Sirius Black took a wrong turn and never found Peter Pettigrew. Instead of Azkaban, Sirius settled down in Little Whinging to keep an eye on his godson, and hired Remus Lupin to run his bookshop for him. Then one day when Harry was eight, Sirius found out how the Dursleys treated him, and stole him away.

    Stealing Harry is an alternate universe version of Harry Potter's life before his time at Hogwarts. It is the story of Harry's family: Sirius and Remus, Ted and Andromeda, Nymphadora, Neville Longbottom, and even Severus Snape, all banded together against a newly powerful Peter Pettigrew who is still searching for a way to resurrect Voldemort.

    Laocoon's Children follows Harry through his time at Hogwarts as he develops a very different group of friends: Hufflepuff Draco Malfoy, Ravenclaw Padma Patil, and Gryffindor Neville Longbottom, strange companions for a Harry who was sorted into Slytherin -- the house of his beloved Professor Snape.

    This universe ends in Harry's third year, and is partially incomplete. As it is not likely to be finished, the last story in the series is a group of notes I made on where the story would have gone and how it would have ended.

    Summary

    Hanzo is a new member of Overwatch, working undercover in a coffee shop with a few other agents. He’s adjusting to his new life – and making good progress on his missions – when he starts finding ridiculous messages scrawled on coffee cups… Messages that are, apparently, for him. While he’s convinced it’s all just a ridiculous prank, D.Va calls them “pick-up lines” and insists that he has a “secret admirer.”

    Summary

    John Keats' career as a poet is on the very brink of taking off when he meets the aristocratic, irritating and very distracting Percy Shelley.  

    “Run, John,” said Shelley, taking his arm and yanking him down the stairs, two at a time. They pelted past the crowd at the bottom of the stairs and the footmen at the door and burst out onto the street, gasping and laughing.

    “How have you got so far in life without learning that the answer to "are you Lord Byron" is always "No, absolutely not"?” said Shelley.
