Summary
John might or might not have accidentally taken Nyquil before his early morning shift.
Luckily, he's doing pretty well for himself, headcold and all. Except nobody else seems to agree-- especially not the brooding, good-looking elf prince who seems unduly concerned about the whole thing, for some reason...
*(In this AU, John and Nuada both are at the Antarctic base, temporarily.)

Summary
John Myers draws the short straw and is sent on an emergency mission intervention on behalf of BPRD's legal department. Seeing his former team isn't the best surprise, but it's kind of tempered by A.) helping to stop another apocalypse, and B.) meeting the unexpectedly attractive Prince Nuada.
That is, a guy in a parka interrupts the pivotal battle with the Golden Army, gives Nuada a letter, and not much later, everyone kind of goes home.
*(That's right, y'all. It's another meet-cute AU for my faves.)

Summary
A simple day out with the science team takes a turn for the perilous when enemies of the Winter Court ambush the BPRD caravan that Chulainn's tailed along with. And since John is along for the ride, he's along for the fight, too.
ORPrince Chulainn wants to spend time with John, even when he's working his 9-5. Unfortunately, some blood-thirsty assassins end up ruining what was supposed to be a run-of-the-mill outing.

Summary
It's been nearly two weeks since that one time John fumbled his way through helping the BPRD stop the Golden Army-- or rather, Prince Nuada-- from probably ending/taking over the world.
In the meantime, a mission with another high-profile ally goes sideways just in time to bring about a reunion between two antagonistic acquaintances who've not had any reason to interact in several hundred years.
And John? He pretty much just wants to get some sleep.
OR
Nuada finally finds time to actually visit John, but finds out the BPRD agent is not lacking for company, thanks to a familiar member of a local royal family.

Summary
A night of mediocre sleep doesn't bring clarity to John regarding the downright surreal conversation he had with Prince Nuada and Chulainn the evening before. Conveniently, the two aforementioned parties provide some clarification on exactly why everyone was acting so weird yesterday.
In fact, honestly? They probably provide a bit too much clarification for the unprepared human in their midst when they both somewhat clumsily try and ask John out.
OR
It's been a day since the quasi-showdown between Chulainn and Nuada in the infirmary, and as far as each of them is concerned, they have "dibs" on courting Agent John Myers without the interference of the other person.
Agent John Myers, however, definitely has something to say on the matter, himself.

Summary
It's somewhere past midnight at the BPRD base and John has resigned himself to having to find help getting back into his room because he's somehow managed to lock himself out after sleepwalking for the first time in decades. Thankfully, the rest of the building is pretty much deserted at the hour, so getting his door unlocked should be relatively straight-forward.
The operative term there is 'should be'.

Summary
The Unseelie fae royal family loses their estranged crown prince (who'd fled the kingdom years ago) and his young son, who the king and queen never had the chance to meet.
Meanwhile, young John goes out hunting for his missing father, leaving the woods for the first time in his life. Not long after encountering civilization, he ends up being shuffled around the foster care system until the BPRD (who has been watching from the wings for several years) catches up to him. The amoral organization's Midwestern chapter then does its damnedest to unravel the cause of his mysteriously manifesting injuries.
Lastly, Nuada and Nuala's twin-bond has all but dissipated since Nuala's soulbond began to form. However, while she is content to wait for the fates to bring them together organically, her brother is far less patient while waiting to meet his soulmate. Nuada shirks Bethmooran tradition for the sake of his Bonded, whose torture he can see and feel mirrored on his own skin: if his mate can't come to him, he will go to his mate.
*
ORJohn is (apparently) Unseelie fae royalty, is held captive by the BPRD, and Nuada (eventually) seeks him out- waiting be damned.

Summary
It's Valentine's Day at the BPRD, and John is one of Those People who actually enjoys the hyper-commercialized holiday. He's just not all too sure about how Nuada will take this blatantly... human tradition.
(Spoiler: Nuada's... kind of really into it, so long as it involves John.)
This fic features: a non-traditional bouquet as a gift, a complete stranger who 'ships it', a romantic pic-a-nic, and a gratuitous amount of smut. Like, almost a whole chapter of it.
Oh, and a little bit of plot, or whatever, I guess.

Summary
John notices something.... different about Nuada's appearance one morning. Nuada, meanwhile, wonders how John didn't notice it before now.
OR
I wrote crackfic about John noticing that yeah, Nuada's wearing makeup, dude, and then Nuada roasting him for not catching on earlier. Then I scaled it back to just fluff with a humorous tilt (hopefully), with the barest suggestion of plot around the edges to keep it in this AU. lol

Summary
John's team is called in for a pretty routine investigation at Zinco Corp's headquarters in New Jersey. Unfortunately, whoever is pulling the strings at the mysterious corporation seems to have taken a less than routine interest in one specific team member. (You can guess which one.)
That being said, Nuada has a personal and vested interest in that very same person and would very much like him back, now. And if a few long-standing questions are answered in the process, well, that just saves him and Nuala a bit of trouble, probably.
*
[To nutshell this fic: John has a pretty Bad Time, Nuada is both angry and worried in equal amounts, Hellboy comes along for the ride, spooky people dress spookily, Nuala is an excellent actress, and we finally get some (perhaps partial) answers as to just what the hell is going on around here, lately.]
