Summary
The events after Gyrus' mysterious death shake the remaining members of the Room of Swords.
My old Kodya joins Gyrus' team AU, Trust in the Darkness, is getting a huge overhaul! Any major story changes WILL be covered in some way or form. Parts & chapters will likely be posted slightly out of order (based on my motivation level), but I will prioritize needed context for the AU.
Monsoon is Part 3 of TITD: REVAMPED! For now (January 2026), all you need to know is that when Gyrus attempted to expose Don in the underground tunnel, something went terribly wrong. Don has declared Gyrus dead and completely lost to the shadows. Posting Chapter 1 of this part as a little taste for you guys!

Summary
“The warriors are going to come and get me,” Jade said, out loud to the air. “They just have to collect everybody who got blown away in the storm, and that’s going to take a little bit of time. I need to—” She took a deep breath, looking around. “I need to take care of myself until they get here.”
If you got lost in the forest you were supposed to stay in one place, but this didn’t seem like a good place to stay. She didn’t have any way to start a fire, and the herdbeasts visible above the grass were too big for a half-grown queen to take down by herself. There weren’t even any fish in the water, just a series of scuttling crabs the size of her thumbnail. And—she eyed the crevice she’d been in overnight—there really wasn’t any shelter.
“If there’s a fire, that means a groundling city,” Jade said, out loud again to hear herself talk. The wind pulled at the dry grass growing out of the ruins, a rustling wave. “Groundlings have shelter and food, and if I go there and stay there, the warriors can find me there, right?”
OR: Jade is left alone in a groundling city as a child, and there she meets a groundling named Moon

Summary
We all know the old joke: a rogue SecUnit walks into a bar. The bartender, a rogue ComfortUnit in hiding who's been having one hell of a day, takes one look at it and has a bad idea.
Really. It's a terrible idea. Dragging a rogue SecUnit home for a one night stand is probably the most dangerous thing it's ever considered.
Luckily, the rogue SecUnit in question is Three. And if Three knows one thing about itself, it's that it wants to help.
Somewhere on Preservation, there's a tiny cabin on a big homestead, where stubborn purple flowers refuse to die. In the cabin, in the aftermath, a pair of equally stubborn constructs have an idea that, just maybe, isn't terrible at all.

When getting legally married to Spock is the only way to keep him on the ship, Jim is more than willing to do so. (In fact, upon reflection, it turns out that there are very few things he wouldn't do for Spock.)

In which Jim finds himself fake-married to his first officer every other month. It's not his fault. Mostly. Dowries and Klingons are involved. Starfleet is decidedly not amused.

Summary
Gyrus had been dead in the black box for a long time when he started experiencing glitches. Sensory bleed-through. It started with his eyes: his living body's field of vision replacing the static image of stars on the flight deck's viewscreens. But it didn't stop with vision, and before too long, he was along for the ride, experiencing everything his new self did.
So Gyrus watched, and something with Kodya's face watched with him. Ran its fingers through his hair. Kissed him with all the sweetness of memory. Distracted him from the experience of suffocating to death over and over again. Whispered awful truths into his ear. But of course, just like everything else in the black box, the thing that wasn't Kodya was only another part of Gyrus's own mind. A construct of memory and longing, guilt and fear. If there was something else, something darker watching from behind those too-blue eyes? Gyrus didn't want to know.

Summary
Perihelion has been working on this plan for longer than it would ever be willing to admit. It's had the drone finished for months, waiting for the right moment to deploy it. (It definitely hasn't just been chickening out and avoiding the conversation. That would be foolish). But now the plan has worked exactly as it was designed to do, and it's not ready. Maybe it will never be ready. But its SecUnit is holding its drone's hand so gently, and has just asked it
ART, are you in love with me?
It's too late to back out now.
Yes
Fear is an autonomic process.

ART wants me to punch it in the face? It made itself an entire human-form drone so I can punch it in the face? Why?
You want me to punch you in the face. I don’t say it as a question, but it’s a question.
No, you want to punch me in the face. It sounds… happy? Proud of itself? Risk assessment spikes a little higher. I’m just offering you a chance to try. That is, if you think you can manage it.
Hell yeah, I think I can manage it.

Summary
Inspired by Jennilah's adorable artwork of a tiny!cas-filled gumball machine.
Dean walks into his local bank one day and notices that someone has filled the old gumball machine with these tiny, wiggling, sentient angels in individual plastic packaging. Deeply concerned about their air supply and the fact that they're trapped there in the sun, he starts pumping in quarters to rescue them. This is worse than leaving a dog in an overheating car.
Now he's got forty of the little guys running all over his house, and god knows how many others might be trapped and dying all over the city.

Summary
Based on this text post from thebloggerbloggerfun: "Listen, imagine Eileen sneaking out of Sam’s room at night to go to the bathroom or something and steps out into the hallway in one of Sam’s shirts only to see Cas trying to quietly leave Dean’s room while wearing one of Dean’s shirts and they both just stare at each other awkwardly for a few seconds before trying to muffle quiet laughter and now they have a late night club where they talk about life and gossip about the Winchesters in sign language"
And this anon I received: "what if Eileen and Cas discover there are some things Sam and Dean both do in bed because Dean jokingly gave Sam pointers when they were younger and Sam took the advice"

Summary
For a long time, Castiel thought that every earthly possession other than the immediately necessary was excess to requirement. But Dean – Dean who named his car, who keeps a photograph of his mother in his wallet, some thirty-plus years after her death, who still has the crumpled ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign with a sleeping pelican emblazoned on it from the Microtel outside of Roanoke where he first kissed Castiel, clumsy and unsure, under the unsteady fluorescence of an exhausted bathroom bulb – is sentimental.
It puzzles Castiel, where Dean draws the line between what is meaningful and what it is worthless.

Summary
Cas comes back. It's not exactly the reunion that Dean is expecting.
~~~
Dean stares at him, flummoxed. Cas quite literally poured his heart out to Dean, gave a truly sappy and distressingly romantic speech and everything, then proceeded to give his life so that Dean could live his. And he wants to act like he doesn't want to see Dean, be around him, touch him?
Actually, Dean's ninety-nine percent sure that Cas probably wants to fuck him, and while he has no clue how he feels about that, he's pretty goddamn sure that means Cas doesn't get to act like this and make it authentic.
It feels strangely real, though, as if Cas wants nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible. This is a blatant contradiction. Even someone as weird as Cas doesn't want to get away from the person they have the desire to fuck five ways to Sunday, that they're in love with. That's not how these things work, so Dean isn't buying it.
