Summary
Something other than a giant, alien brain festers in the city of Baldur's Gate. From dead men wandering the sewers, to soulless patriars scheming from their gilded palaces, something vile has taken root to consume all it touches.
To save a city that's deemed them criminals (and to save their own asses), these two losers must cheat, stab, and flirt their way to the heart of the rot and carve it out, piece by festering piece. And figure out what, exactly, they mean to each other.

Summary
“Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”
She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.
“And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.
Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”
Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”
He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.
“Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”
-
Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

Summary
“Maybe what you really need is a friend, not a lover.”
Astarion’s eyes flutter with surprise. “I-I would like that. I’ve held more people than I can count. An infinite parade of lovers. But a friend?” He pauses on the question and his face becomes crestfallen. “I can’t think of a single one.”
He puts his hand out to Effy, to which she happily accepts.
“Until you,” he says with a smile—that only she’s ever seen.
Ever since that moment the two remained friends and even got an apartment together in the Lower City shortly after defeating the Netherbrain.
It’s been several months since; and Effy is still happily living with her vampire bestie, but Astarion’s been acting different lately…

Summary
It's the end of the world. The Cleanse is devouring them all. In one last-ditch effort to save himself and his family, Five time travels to the last place, and person, he can think of that made him truly happy.
Five finds Ava, a sunshiny waitress working at a cafe in 1965 Dallas, Texas. He hasn't been able to forget her ever since he set eyes on her in 1963. Fortunately for Five, Ava finds him charming and they develop a deep, romantic relationship. Unfortunately for Five, that means he has to lie to her about his entire life.
Nothing bad can come of that, right?

Summary
I don’t remember how I died. Maybe that’s preferrable.
Reborn as part of the Giles family, I followed in my uncle’s footsteps and join him in Sunnydale as a Watcher-In-Training. Scrambling to organise the Scoobie’s collective chaos in order to keep the stubborn kids alive, I find myself becoming part of something unexpected, and end up drawing the attention of a Billy Idol wannabe.

Summary
Humans, pathetic things, are born screaming.
Henry Creel remembers the noise before he remembers light. Before faces. Before language. A tearing intrusion from nothing into everything—sound, thought, emotion, desire—an endless psychic static that never abates. Other minds broadcast into his mercilessly and without restraint, wants and fears and memories all pressed together, overlapping like radio frequencies badly tuned.
Since the moment he was born, Henry has known nothing but noise.
His power gives him something like omniscience. He can hear people’s thoughts unspoken, and see things without needing his eyes. It also makes him a prisoner, because to know everything is to be denied silence, to hear everything is to never be alone. The grating din of others’ thoughts roughens him over time, frays his edges, demands constant effort to keep his abilities from tearing outward unchecked. Control is not innate, it is work.
Exhausting work.
Until he meets you.

Summary
When the world grows cruel and its thorns too sharp, Peter sought the one human affliction he thought he’d long since quashed at the hands of his captors— Comfort, and sanctuary.
He’d sworn then. It didn’t matter what he had to do, Papa would never know about you; of the little ray of light that had managed to creep through the walls of his impenetrable white-walled fortress.Bookmarked by NotTheSlayer

Summary
Your fingers interlace with his. In the cool darkness of your quarters, heated only by the shared warmth of your bodies underneath the blanket, you can almost delude yourself into believing nothing bad will touch you. It’s a childish dream, even more fantastical than the idea of Neverland. Still, you settle in closer to Kirsh. You let him wrap his free arm over you and draw you into the protective cradle of his body.
You think you might love him.Bookmarked by NotTheSlayer

Summary
Fear is what keeps you alive. Fear is what grips your bones and hollows you from the inside out. It buzzes through your blood, has your heartbeat pounding in your ears, and sets each nerve on fire like a livewire that will sooner or later snap.
Fear is what made you human.
You had heard the stories– known the risks. But you needed the credits and Weyland-Yutani needed a scientist.
But when a Prodigy synthetic saves you from the alien infested wreckage of the USCSS Maginot, an unlikely alliance forms. And when things inevitably go south, it becomes a question of what's more important: your company's secrets or your life.
(Season 2 has been officially confirmed meaning there will be a direct continuation when it comes back)

Summary
When Five accidentally stumbles into an art class with an attractive nude model, things take a turn from awkward embarrassment to hot and steamy when she asks him out on a date. Five may be inexperienced at times, but he knows how to deliver when it counts, and this is no exception. Unlocking a certain linguistic kink gives Five the ego boost he needs to rock her world like the man in charge he always is.
