    Summary

    Winchester takes a deep breath. "I'm your soulmate."

    Castiel should be saying something reassuring, something to convince the psychopath in front of him that he can be molded and should be kept alive. He is a trained FBI agent that has been in the Behavioral Analysis Unit for nearly a year. He knows what to do when kidnapped. Instead, "What the fuck is wrong with you?" comes out.

    (Supposed serial killer Dean Winchester kidnaps his soulmate, FBI Agent Castiel Novak. What ensues is a battle of wills – one determined to be loved, and one determined to be free.)

    Summary

    I've recently been unexpectedly promoted to lead a department in my organisation, wrote the anonymous emailer.

     

    As there was no one working here when I arrived, my manager, who is head of the organisation, had promised me the choice of my own assistants. However, without warning, he simply presented me with an additional assistant. This new assistant’s first act on his first day was to let a dog into the office. It took several hours to catch and clean up after this dog and it has only been downhill from there. I admit I'm not entirely sure what to do with this assistant now I'm stuck with him. I'm hoping you have some advice?

     

    Kind regards,
    New Manager

    Summary

    Spike wakes every morning in a room he doesn’t recognize, and nothing about his world is ever quite the way his mind tells him it should be. Not to mention the woman always nearby—Buffy, the Slayer, his jailer, a stranger, a lady—a beautiful image from a dream he can’t remember.

    Summary

    A teenager struggling after the death of his best friend finds himself in a fantasy world - one which seems to be an amalgamation of every Dungeons and Dragons campaign they ever played together. Now he's stuck trying to find the answers to why he's there and what this world is trying to say. The most terrifying answer might be that this world is an expression of the person he was back on Earth.

    Note: Up there at the top, it says "Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings". This is very distinct from "No Archive Warnings Apply". The warning that there are no warnings is your only warning; do with it what you will.

    This story is also cross-posted on Royal Road. and my website.

    Summary

    "You know I had to do it to them," John mumbles.

    He misses the beach. The real beach. The current one is mostly soil with a lacy veneer of nuclear ash, clammy and streaky and hilariously radioactive, which is a real bummer when he thinks about it too hard. But the twenty-five meter sea level rise that came when all the freshwater ice finished melting around the mid-century mark ate away at the shoreline, rolled in between the skyscrapers on a new tide, swallowed up all the people who couldn't afford to move anywhere else. Have you seen the rent rates lately?

    And then John accidentally'd the entire nuclear stockpile of the planet Earth.

    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

    Summary

    In his 2009 book on Captain America comic books, war photography, and American propaganda, Everett claims: “There is nothing to suggest that either the graphic novels issued during the war or the photographs taken during Rogers’ stay with the Howling Commandos can serve as a basis for a queer reading of Rogers and Barnes’ relationship. But even more importantly, there is nothing to suggest that such a relationship ever existed in the first place, and as such, those queer readings are not only misguided, but also libelous” (197).

    [from: Lynn E. Anderson, Captain America: Behind the Mask. Steve Rogers and the Contemporary Hero Narrative (New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2012), p. 242.]

    In the aftermath of Steve's return to the world of the living and the battle of New York, the academia and the Internet react.

    Summary

    The single faceless, anonymous photograph on the profile that catches his eye is shot in elegant black-and-white, and there’s something about the crispness of the focus and the markedly off-center composition that says art, for once, rather than mugshot.

     

    The caption below is equally sparse: “5’6. Demanding.”

    Elias hires a monster to work in the archives. One small decision that shouldn't make much of a difference.

    Until someone's putting googly eyes over everything in the Institute, Melanie's having pizza parties to save the almost-life of a manifestation of the Stranger, Sasha's writing off payments for illegal phone hacks as a work expense, and Tim's trying to figure out how many helium balloons one needs to fill the boss' office with in order to get fired.

    Oh yeah, and they still need to save the world.

    Summary

    When no rescue comes for Percy in Whitestone's dungeons, he is given a choice: Take the dubious salvation of becoming Dr. Anna Ripley's assistant and aiding his family's murderers, or die.

    When Orthax appears to Percy, he is given another: Plot his retribution under his targets' noses, risky as it may be, or never see his family avenged.

    When his other choices backfire disastrously, the demon gives him one more: Accept his fate, or make contact with a party of complete strangers, who call themselves Vox Machina, and cling to the foolish hope that there are still people in this world he can trust.

    Summary

    The Lonely is hunting Jon’s office, so Jon needs to fight it off. He is, unfortunately, uniquely unqualified to bring an unlikely group of people together as friends. It takes a powerful combination of alcohol and corporate office infographics to even get them talking together. But everyone can agree that Martin deserves better, and that might be enough.

    “My grandmother taught me about selkies,” said the tattooed man. “Said it’s good luck for them to grace your ship. To treat ‘em right, and they’ll guide you safe.”

    It had seemed like a reasonable thing to believe.

    It was the third time the tape recorder showed up on a first date that Martin lost his cool.

    "I've--er---I've got to go," he stuttered, and threw some notes on the table. It was time to have a talk with Jon.
