The Broken Day

Kara adores Maggie, she really does, but all at once remembers that the smaller woman is notorious for her avoidance of her own feelings and her ability to dodge having to talk things out. “Maggie Sawyer, can we just skip past the whole denial thing and get to point?” “Denial? Of what?” Now Maggie rallies a little, standing as tall as she can, crossing her arms over her chest in a way that Kara knows she means to be a show of strength but really is clearly an attempt to shield herself. “Kara, I don’t know what you think is going on between us, but you, you’re wrong. Okay? I’m… single, and you’re my dead girlfriend’s little sister.” Kara could almost believe the cold, dispassionate tone Maggie has affected, except for the tremors in her voice. They speak to the deep anguish and confusion the Kryptonian knows Maggie is wrestling with. **** Alex is gone, and Kara and Maggie have come to rely on each other to get through the day. Except, there's more to it than two women grieving. That more drives Maggie into a guilt-spiral of denial, but Kara is no fool.

Viagra is the best thing that ever happened to Charles and Erik's sex life, leading directly to the best thing that's happened to them since Lorna. But as happy as they are to be adding to their family, that doesn't mean there won't be some hurdles along the way.

There are many ways to show- and say- that you love someone.

Sherlock finds it hard to leave Mycroft's bed.

Derek doesn’t want to fall asleep because he knows Stiles is leaving in the morning

The Final Battle doesn't go as planned, and Harry finds himself at the mercy of his nemesis in a never-ending hell of pain and humiliation...This is a Dark fic, and not my usual. Tread with caution.

When Harry resigns from the Aurors and returns to Hogwarts to teach, he doesn't expect to end up deeper in the hunt for the renegade Lucius Malfoy than before. (Started before HBP and therefore ignores pretty much everything in that book.)

Carol’s visited by her captor.

Set shortly after "flaws in the design".

When Yuri shows up at the Nikiforov/Katsuki apartment, he is certainly not afraid. Nope. No-siree. But there's something about Yūri Katsuki that makes the storm raging outside not matter so much. This is the story of how Yuri decided that Yūri was going to be the team mom. Or at least, something like that. Excerpt:Yūri looked at Viktor and smiled. “Since Viktor is leaving me all alone tonight, why don’t we go out and do something, like a movie?”“Sounds fun. But do you understand the Russian well enough?”“You can translate. And make it as badly as possible.” Yūri laughed.“Kay! Text me later.” Yuri smiled happily and skated off.“This is not the rink I left.” Viktor mumbled. “And I hate these dinner things that I do with Yakov, you know that Yūri.”“Yes. Because you hate leaving me alone. But I won’t be alone. So you don’t have to worry.”“But how did you soften him up so well?” Viktor continued on with his whining.“I’m not telling.” “Yūri, please? I can make your life hell…” Viktor tried again.“Do your worst because I am not telling you.”

Their time is up.

IMPORTANT: Major Character Death, Violence, Underage, and Rape are NOT between the main couple!!! Underage/Rape (underage SA) is only mentioned and is in the past. This is a dark and spicy fic with a small amount of consensual rope play and possessiveness, though - so tread carefully if that is not your jam! When Gustave Daaé finds himself unable to make a payment on his enormous loan for the third month in a row, his daughter Christine is taken as collateral until the money is paid in full. Although his lender would normally send his personal assassin - known to his frightened debtors as the Phantom - to end Gustave's miserable life, he instead has the Phantom keep Christine prisoner. Christine, naturally, fears her captor, fears his terrible mask, and fears the new life she leads - but there may be a kernel of warmth within the Phantom's icy, black heart. WIP. Enjoy! Note: I am always exploring different worlds and different ideas. If I ever accidentally write anything insensitive or hurtfully inaccurate in my quest to do this exploration, please leave a comment letting me know, and I will do my best to correct it. Thank you!

In the silence that follows, a very small voice goes, “Come again?” Sasuke rolls his eyes heavenwards, because the big ol’ bastard up there is definitely mocking him, and steps in with an annoyed “Itachi said, you fucking moron, that you didn’t just summon us– you practically wedded us to you.” “And no, there is no way this can be broken,” Itachi added, voice graver than anything Naruto’s ever heard in his life. So if this isn’t the moment to fall onto his arse, stare dumbfounded at his summons (who are now his husbands, dear lord, and what the hell was he going to do about that?!) and hope that there’s some third option to heaven or hell, then Naruto doesn’t know when it is. Living with Hypersatan and Satan is bad enough, so how much worse could it really get for Naruto? (Answer: A lot worse. Just chuck in a dysfunctional summon circle and you've got a recipe for disaster.) ( alternately, nobody is ready for marriage, everyone is ready to freak out, and the author's one of their number too )

Two desperate men decide to kidnap a prominent citizen's son. The son is a hyperactive little git who makes them think twice. And... for purposes of the fic, Red Chief is much less breakable.
