Summary
“Goodnight, Dad!”
“Goodnight, duckling!” His smile dropped when the door clicked shut. Closed his eyes. Counted to ten. It wouldn’t do to blow a hole in the hotel they just finished. He’s spent too much of his life blowing up shit just because he could fix it afterwards. As if there were no consequences to being a giant rage monster just because nothing stayed broken. It’s a problem he got under wraps a few thousand years ago, but few things challenge his control like Charlie, her safety, their lack of relationship. But, no, this wasn’t about that; It was about that asshole being to chickenshit to go to the top and instead bothering little girls with too much on their plate.
***
It's strange for Lucifer to wander back into Hellish society after centuries of isolation. There was a reason he left, a reason he no longer even tried. But Charlie had a plan. Who knew if it was even going to work, but there was no way in Hell he was going to let her stick it to Heaven without help.
If only that radio demon wasn't such an asshole.Updates Tuesday

Summary
“Let me get this straight,” Adachi says when everyone’s been topped up and a couple of new bottles sit between them. Adachi appears to pause over his choice of phrasing before shaking his head and continuing. “The question isn’t so much if we let the guy who shot Kasuga get into a relationship with him, but, what? How do we get Kasuga to come out of the closet?”
“Worse.” Zhao sighs. “How do we get Kasuga to realize he’s in the closet.”

Arakawa comes back into Ichiban's life. It's not as straightforward as Ichiban hopes. -

Summary
“Timothy made a lot of bad decisions... So here he was alone on Elpis, with no way out and no official papers because, to put the cherry on top, he didn’t officially exist anymore. God, he sure helped that not everyone on Elpis was as mad as they made Pandorans up to be.”
---
Timothy’s boss sends him down alone, with minimal training, a couple of guns, and a couple of AI’s so experimental that don’t even have their learning algorithms up and running. There’s a lot on the line and Timothy is the man for the job; mostly because he’s the only one for around. Realistically, it going to be only days before Timothy is decomposing on the moon’s surface.Series

Set in the Detroit universe. You don't really need to play the game to read this. It's basically just an Android AU with a bit of spice.Series

Summary
“So, why haven't you settled down with some lucky lady yet?” the interviewer asks.
Maybe it's the blinding set-lights, or the fact that he hasn't slept in thirty-five hours. But for some reason Kirk blurts, “Honestly, they all end up getting jealous of Spock.”- Language:

Summary
Sequel to "When You Go Away." Julian's research project in speculative reproductive xenobiology is turning out to be a little more complicated than he'd hoped...
Silly and fun and very light. Highlights: second-season Bashir; flirtatious, fascinated Garak; Cardassian manners; lack of sleep; too much coffee; when when when can I see him again??
Note: this is a sequel, but can easily be read on its own.
