Summary
Doctor McCoy sure as hell doesn’t compromise care, confidentiality, or his goddamn conscience for anyone. He has no problem with extracting a mind-controlling slug from Uhura's sinuses, performing a blood transfusion between a human and a sentient puddle, or administering therapy to a crew-wide hallucination of a god.
But catching feelings for Spock?
Now that’s just irresponsible.
And ultimately, it's all Jim’s fault.

Summary
On a second contact mission on a planet where healers are holy and doctors are tantamount to priests, McCoy is given the rare opportunity to participate in a sacred ritual.
Unfortunately--for Kirk and Spock, at least--"accepting god within you" has a rather more literal meaning on this planet.

Summary
A visiting Vulcan doctor, whose work leads him to be more "hands on" than would usually be seen as proper on Vulcan, has been flirting with McCoy relentlessly. Spock is the only one who seems to have noticed.
Why he cares so much is a different matter, and what he wants Kirk to do about it? Well, that's a whole other question entirely.

Leonard really didn't know what to think when he woke up. He really shouldn't have, all things considered.
OR: Why are there, like, no Star Trek x Star Wars crossovers. I would have thought there would be so so so many. Oh well. *Pushes up sleeves* No better place to dive into fic writing than the deep end, eh?
also, no hate to other readers, commenters, or my person will be tolerated. this fic is for my own self indulgence, i write how i want, what i want, as best i want and if you don't like it, leave. Be nice or be gone.

Summary
You have a... good bedside manner, Spock.
The first thing he feels is Spock. His - mind? soul? - is unmistakable, cool and refreshing, beautiful in its crystalline brightness.
Spock’s self gathers up his own self and cradles it. It is raving and barking about his body, his body, his one-and-only irreparably ruined body.
McCoy feels a bitter, bitter sorrow. Not his own. Then, like white foam on a rising wave, I am here. And Jim. We will not leave you.

Summary
"Someone needs to go with him." Diana said. "She's a goddess of family. Her blessing will come from the strength of his familial ties."
All the more reason I should go. Damian thought.
Bruce and Dick shared a long look. Perhaps to the others in the room, it was a fast, indecipherable look, but Damian caught the pull of Dick's mouth and the tightness to his father's jaw. However, it was Bruce that said "Red Hood and Red Robin."
Damian's eyes widened.
Grayson was as good as dead.
Or the one where Dick's brothers manage to royally piss off an ancient deity that sends them careening through memories he'd rather they didn't see.

Summary
Roy Mustang had a plan. It would take him up the ranks and to the position of Fuhrer where he could finally do the most good. Everything had been going well.
And then he found a little boy who needed his help more than the country did.
Adoption hadn't really been in his plans. But plans changed.
At least Riza would still have his back. He was going to need all the help he could get.- Language:

Summary
While attempting to infiltrate and disband Atillius, one of the galaxy's most brutal and notorious alien gladiator rings, Spock and McCoy are taken and trafficked into the organization.
Kirk and the rest of the crew manage to rescue them months later, but when they do, they find that neither of them are the same anymore.
------
"The healers told him that the psyche was a delicate thing, that it might be hard to understand exactly what was going on in his first officer's head after such intense trauma.
Jim thought it wasn’t hard to understand at all. It was quite simple when you looked at it this way; Spock, forced to fight to the death for his and McCoy's life day after day, had lost his mind in the process. He'd become Atillius's perfect killing machine, and in the end, it had driven him insane."

Summary
The other boy slowly lowers his arm back to his side as he meets Charles’ gaze. His eyes are scrutinizing. “There isn’t time, unfortunately,” he says, hushed, “for a full explanation. So, in short order: my name is Edwin Payne, yes, I too was sacrificed to Sa’al by my classmates at St. Hilarion’s, and both of our souls have been traded to the creature that resides here. Unlike Sa’al, the creature has no qualms about torturing souls and prefers to chase its prey. It will be following the trail I have left behind. Hide here. I will lead it off.”
Or: Charles Rowland is sacrificed in the same ritual that killed Edwin Payne, seventy-three years earlier, only a short time before Edwin would have made it out of Hell on his own. Now, instead of being responsible for only himself, Edwin's got to get the both of them out of Hell. It's not going to be easy.

Summary
Whoever held the greatest claim on his soul could be worse than Doll Spider. They might doom him to an eternity of pain that even he couldn’t imagine. But he didn’t care: this chance of freedom—of snatching victory from the creature that had stolen decades of his existence—was far greater than any risk.
“The claimant is unknown,” the Justiciar stated. “If they approach the court with the proper paperwork, or are willing to be put to the sword, we will revisit your case."
~
Following their return from Hell, Edwin and Charles had thought themselves safe. They had believed that Hell and its denizens had no more claim on Edwin's soul.
Unfortunately, not everyone is of the same opinion.
When Edwin is summoned to a tribunal to determine whether the Doll Spider or the Office of Lost and Found has the greater claim on his soul, it is up to Charles, Crystal and the Night Nurse to put things right. The truth, however, may be more complicated than it seems - and more than one of the agency will be forced to confront their demons.

Edwin shrugged. “Life is, I’m afraid,” he said.
“Can be wonderful, too,” Hob said. “I promise.”- Language:

Summary
With the end of the five years mission on the horizon, the crew of the Enterprise is getting ready, making new plans for their future. Seems like Jim is the only one that has no idea what his future holds, all he knows is that he must break up with Spock, before it happens the other way around.
But just before their tour of duty is completed, an unexpected diplomatic mission is forced upon captain and crew by the admiralty, one that involves an ancient Vulcan ritual, invoked to determinate the fate the Vulcan people after their great calamity. That sacrament, however, also has the potential to destroy the entire Federation.
Fun times assured.
