    Summary

    "Sydney," he pushed the words forcefully, like his throat had been clamped shut for ages. A smile crept to his face, and if she didn't know better, she might've believed it was purely happiness, and not conjoined with something inexplicably Victor. "You've grown so much."

    She hadn't. Victor Vale was, simply, a little shit.

    (Three years after a particular midnight, Sydney's path crosses upon Victor's once again, and then, Eli's.)

    "Oh, no, common misconception," says Spike. "Rupert and human Rupert are different people."

    Or: Spike adopts a very dumb orange cat who helps him experience the power of friendship and, more importantly, psychologically torment Giles.

    Summary

    Dick gets sick. Bruce takes care of him. They work through some stuff.

    “Are you here to tell me to lay in the floor again?"

    Confusion furrows Bruce’s brows, but there’s something else there. More of that worry, but concentrated. The other Bruce didn’t look so worried. Smug. Sad. Never worried. Maybe that’s a bad sign. “Why would I tell you to lay in the floor?”

    (set after titans season 3, not season 4 compliant)

    Summary

    "It’s a fucking shed in our kitchen,” Geralt said. “Everyone else who answered the ad took one look at it and left.”

    “Yeah, that worries me,” said Yen. “What sort of a person would actually want to live in that thing? What if he’s some kind of weirdo?”

    “Should have thought of that before renting it out."

    Yennefer and Geralt have been living together for ten years, madly in love with each other & both unwilling to make the first move. Strapped for cash, they do the only logical thing; install a garden shed in their kitchen and rent it out to Jaskier, a 24-year old guitarist in a folk rock band and freewheeling disaster. They don't expect to catch feelings. They don't expect their new flatmate to overturn their carefully constructed, platonic domestic bliss...
