Summary: No matter how fast light travels, it finds that darkness has always gotten there first.

Summary: Problems are like mushrooms, she’d told Phoebe. The longer you leave them in the dark, the bigger they get. Perhaps she should’ve taken her own advice.
Author’s Notes: Spec fic written before episode 4 aired.

( If Jamie had come to her weeks, months even, after they’d broken up, contrite and honest and committed to change, she might’ve — well. She might’ve. )

Story Title: The Silent Saying and Saying
Fandom(s): Once Upon a Time
Rating: G
Word Count: 5,933
Summary: She didn’t plan on falling for him. In fact, between the trauma of losing Daniel and Robin and the whole he-looks-exactly-like-her-son’s-stepfather thing, the very notion was so preposterous as to not even occur to her. And then Alice shows up, and he almost dies, and things become a little less clear.
Author’s Notes: H/t to @spartanguard on Tumblr for this most excellent tattoo headcanon, and to @queen-mabs-revenge and @bleebug who (I think) originated most of the Mama Jones headcanons in this. Might at some point write parts of the other 10-plus years they spent together, but for now this is a standalone.

( She doesn’t put the pieces together at first. )

​Title: Trap, Crackle, Pop
Author: metamorphagi
Fandoms: The Hunger Games
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 24,606 [in progress]
Summary: They say not all of Finnick Odair came back from his Games five years ago. How fortunate that the Capitol loves him so much they ask him to mentor and entertain anyway.
Characters: Finnick/Annie, basically every victor prior to the 70th Games
Spoilers: All three books.
Author’s Notes: Inspired by a prompt that deathmallow gave to sabaceanbabe, who in turn let me run with it: Finnick is the slightly cracked one but still they make him mentor because the Capitol loves him so much. This could make Annie’s Games rather interesting.
