    Summary

    An AU where Mary never got Nathaniel out. Instead, he became too invaluable of an asset to be killed off or 'gifted' to Tetsuji. Instead, he's raised with Ichirou and Jean as a part of Ichirou's inner circle.

    He'd always had a knack for languages and lying and all the 'messy stuff' came easily enough when your father is called the Butcher of Baltimore. So Nathaniel became the Wraith. He was untraceable, unknowable, infalliable; a criminal fairytale.

    When Kevin Day leaves the Nest, there's no better person to send.

    "Who the hell are you?" Andrew demanded.

    He wasn't anyone, not really; not anymore. He hadn't really been anyone in years now. There'd been a time. Once. But there were entire lifetimes between who he could have been and what he'd become. He could taste it sometimes; blackberries and sand stinging his tongue like the iron branded on his shoulder.

    It was easier to pretend he'd never been anyone at all.

    "I'm nothing," he answered. The ghost of a smile pulled at his lips; sharp and cruel. "A wraith." The Wraith, he didn't say, but the shadows ran through Andrew's eyes and he wondered if Andrew had heard it anyways.

    Summary

    It starts with shared lecture notes.
    Then it’s music notes.
    Then it’s Kakashi lying on his bed, not touching Yamato, listening to a song that sounds like falling in love in slow motion.
    Love, apparently, is also in 7/8 time.

    Summary

    Kakashi Hatake is the FBI’s top profiler—and its most expensive liability. A man who stares into the abyss and sometimes doesn’t blink back.
Yamato is assigned as his partner, handler, babysitter, whatever the Bureau wants to call it.

    His job is simple: keep Kakashi from going under.

    It’s not simple.

    It’s motel rooms soaked in rain and cigarette smoke.
It’s field reports and bruised knuckles and the kind of sex that says more than either of them know how to.
It’s a slow, brutal unraveling—of cases, of killers, of themselves.

    Kakashi uses strangers to forget how much he feels.
Yamato doesn’t know how to stop caring.
Eventually, the only place left to hide is each other.

    Summary

    Neil’s just won the Hunger Games so his life should be smooth sailing from now on. It’ll be easy! All he has to do is keep his temper under control, stop antagonizing the president, survive living with his fellow Victors (despite the fact that several of them seem to want to break him), and avoid inciting a rebellion.

    Too bad nothing in Neil's life has ever been easy.

    Featuring a Neil who is Done with everybody’s shit, an Andrew who is feeling both personally victimised and reluctantly intrigued by the new kid’s pretty eyes and sharp tongue, and a Kevin who would really rather not be the figurehead of a revolution, thanks.

    Summary

    Kakashi goes looking for an interesting dessert and finds a secret instead. His classmate, the quiet, impeccable Yamato, moonlights at a rococo-themed café, a secret world of ribbons and lace. Yamato is braced for the worst, but Kakashi's quiet acceptance is the beginning of a connection that neither of them expected, and a journey toward a truth that can only be found between two different worlds.
