Summary
“What the fuck just happened there?”
“I could ask you the same thing, Harrington,” Eddie hisses, jabs a finger into Steve’s chest. “Did you honestly bring me along as your plus one? To a date? With a guy who really thinks the Sex Pistols were on to something?”
“What,” a date? Plus one? Steve doesn’t even know where to start. “What is a sex pistol?”
“What,” Eddie says, parroting Steve’s confused tone back at him in a way that sounds unfairly boneheaded, “am I doing here,
Steve?”
(Or: Steve has good intentions, but does not realize that punks and metalheads are natural enemies)- Language:

Summary
Valery has fallen in love quickly and foolishly with men like Boris before, so the act hardly registers. He is already there, drowning his folly in liquor, and he has no expectations or even shame. Shame at something so small seems meaningless in the face of Chernobyl. What is idle, fruitless desire for an untouchable man when plumes of ionized smoke still pour from gutted rubble to blacken the sky?

Summary
“I will not apologize for speaking the truth,” the child says. “However, I regret if that truth has offended you.”
“Jesus Christ, kid,” Jim mutters.
“I am not offended,” Spock responds, as blandly as he is able. “I was remiss in casting such hasty judgment upon your guardian.”
”Father,” she corrects.
”Your father,” he agrees.
*****
An academy AU + Tarsus aftermath fic in which James T. Kirk ends up accidentally parentally bonded to an orphaned Vulcan child. When the father/daughter duo enroll in Star Fleet, hijinks ensue (mostly at the expense of Spock’s previously immaculate but quickly deteriorating self-control).
Winner of the 2025 Philon Award for a novel-length fic (!!!)

Summary
“How did you get past the wards?” Derek had put them up, with Peter’s grudging assistance, after the Alpha pack had made themselves at home a few times too many.
The guy pulled a face. “You mean the wards a five-year-old girl with the mental ability of a goldfish could deconstruct?” He blinked wide eyes at Derek. “Gee, I don’t know. It’s bound to go down as one of life’s great mysteries.”
Derek despised him.
