    Summary

    Avid convinced himself to go back to town six times as he stumbled through the underbrush, tripping over rotten logs and smacking his face into needled branches. But each time he turned to go back (because being alone in these woods was stupid) he saw Sausage avert his eyes, Martyn shrug with an apologetic wince, and Drift stare at him silently.

    ---

    Avid doesn't go back to Oakhurst.

    Summary

    Delusions. Jon had been dealing with delusions since he was a child, around seven or eight. He would lay awake until two or three in the morning, staring at the window, chest heavy with the absolute certain knowledge that somebody was about to break in and kill him and his grandmother. He had tried to warn her—of course he had tried to warn her—but she didn’t listen. So he would sit, tears in his eyes and stuffed rabbit clutched to his chest, waiting for the moment when somebody broke in with a knife.

    A fic where Jon's struggles with paranoia in season two are greatly worsened by schizoaffective disorder.

    Summary

    He fell into a deep bow, smiling the whole while. “I’m the ringmaster, of course.”

    “Is that skin— Is it yours?” Old wood groaned as the Archivist shifted his weight. “Originally.”

    “It is!” the ringmaster said as he swooped back upright. “Nikola decided I wore it well, so she let me keep it. Why do you ask?”

    The Archivist gave him another once-over. “You just… you look familiar. Like someone I know.”

    On relearning, reconnecting, and redefining.

    Summary

    I'm sure given your position you already know about the advent of the General Data Protection Regulation next year, wrote Peter Lukas, to Elias Bouchard. However, the Lukas family wishes to be crystal clear that our continued investment is contingent upon the Institute taking its responsibilities with regards to privacy and confidentiality seriously.

    The Magnus Institute hires a Data Protection Officer. He sets about diligently booking in meetings, writing policy documents, and training all the staff in the importance of confidentiality. Now if only he could get hold of the Head Archivist, who seems to have vanished again...

    (Jon is only trying to save the world, but apparently some people think he should still be doing his day job.)

    Fun fact: interview-based research typically has to go through ethical review, and while oral histories have generally been exempt, that is less and less the case.

    Another fun fact: Tim is no longer allowed to fill out paperwork.

    Summary

    There are three things Eugene Fitzherbert really, really hates: snow, watching Varian almost die in his arms, and running into one of his exes. Not necessarily in that order.

     

    OR, my Whumpcember fic fill of the prompts:

    hypothermia | storm | shortness of breath | broken bone | icy deep | self-hate | crash landing | nightmares | slow healing

    “You hate me,” Tommy declares, throwing his arms every which way. “You hate me and you want me to die and you’re back on your villain arc and I will never forgive you!” Wilbur holds him with a flat, unimpressed stare.

    Summary

    When no rescue comes for Percy in Whitestone's dungeons, he is given a choice: Take the dubious salvation of becoming Dr. Anna Ripley's assistant and aiding his family's murderers, or die.

    When Orthax appears to Percy, he is given another: Plot his retribution under his targets' noses, risky as it may be, or never see his family avenged.

    When his other choices backfire disastrously, the demon gives him one more: Accept his fate, or make contact with a party of complete strangers, who call themselves Vox Machina, and cling to the foolish hope that there are still people in this world he can trust.

    Summary

    Red Hood’s modulated voice is bone-chilling. Nearly every sleaze-bag in Crime Alley had become accustomed to the gravely robotic nature of it. The unnatural shifts in his words and the variations in pitch being just ever so slightly off putting. Borderline uncanny, yet everyone who’s heard it knows there’s a human behind that voice. A man who choses to blow a hole through someone’s skull without so much of an afterthought.

    Though, no one had ever heard that voice scream.

    Not until tonight.

     

    Or, Red Hood is captured, Nightwing saves him and while helping him afterwards, puts the wrong puzzle pieces together and confronts him which does not go quite how he planned.

    Summary

    Alternate ending to D-Stabilized.

    Danny and Valerie decide that no, actually, letting a recently unmelted Dani fly off on her own is probably not a good idea.

    (What Danny doesn't quite understand is how this comes to have such a dramatically bad effect on his ability to keep his secret identity a secret.)

    Summary

    Strange things are going on in Gotham: A series of crimes linked only by a sentence uttered. A drug that no one seems to be selling, but lots of people are taking. An old enemy reborn, or someone pretending to be him. Graffiti that can't be photographed by normal means. Bartenders disappearing without a trace. John Constantine is also there.

    Danny wants nothing to do with any of it. He just wants to sell burgers and survive. Actually, he'd like to go home again, but since that isn't possible, he'll stick with burgers.

    Gotham's vigilante's have other plans.

    This is why Danny doesn't do favors.

    Summary

    People always assume that because Ed isn't religious, he doesn't believe in a higher power. He supposes it's a fair assumption, because that's how it goes with most alchemists; scientific minds don't usually like the wishy-washy nature of miracles and faith and unseen beings. They believe in atoms and molecules and the ever-elusive natural providence.

    But Ed does believe in a higher power; he's met it, and its name is equivalent exchange. Nothing wishy-washy about that.

    Summary

    It was admittedly rather difficult to explain why Alphonse needed to wear a suit of armor at all times, and even harder to explain why there was no body inside said armor. When asked, “Why do you wear that armor?” or reacting to, “Gah! There’s no one in there!”, the Elric brothers learned to have several ready excuses available.

    After all, soul binding wasn’t that common. There were plenty of other ways to explain an empty suit of armor, right?

    Or, Fullmetal Alchemist where everything is the same but the Elrics come up with increasingly more creative excuses as to why Al wears armor, and why his armor is empty.
