    Summary

    “I want to know you,” Celebrimbor said. “You and all that there is to you.”
    Beneath his hands, he felt Annatar tense, his skin growing colder as if every part of him, including his blood, wanted to withdraw from Celebrimbor’s touch.
    “You don’t know what you are asking for,” Annatar said quietly.
    “Perhaps not,” Celebrimbor replied. “And yet this is what I want. You have offered me so much over these years: unnumbered gifts that you gave freely, that I did not even need to ask for. So let this be the first, the last, and the only thing I ask for myself.”
    Let me in. Let me know you. Show me who you were, before you came to me. Let me know all that is ancient and primordial, terrifying and incomprehensible about you. Show me the god beneath the face of the man. Permit me to know you as you truly are.

    On the eve of the creation of the Great Rings, Celebrimbor makes a dangerous request and history changes forever.

    Summary

    Roman escapes back to Barbados after the disastrous board meeting to find some peace and quiet among the ocean waves. Everything changes when a concerned Gerri shows up unexpectedly, and they begin attempting to navigate all the bumps in the road--hand in hand.

    Gerri sighs and buries her head in his shoulder. He kisses the top of her head, her hair smelling like lavender and vanilla. Fuck, she loves him so much. How can she love him so much?

    Somewhere in the back of his mind, Roman still thinks this isn’t real. That when she leaves the comfortable nest of Barbados, Gerri will return to her senses. She’ll move on and this will all be some pleasant Christmas holiday she can reminisce about in the future. That’s another reason why he needs to put some distance between them--so she can figure out what she really wants, and if that includes him. As much as it fucking kills him, he wants her to know it’s real. The same way he does.

    Summary

    The doctor was speaking Federation Standard, which normally sounded to Garak like his own language, Kardasi (thanks to Universal Translators). Now, however, Garak was simply hearing the language that Julian was speaking. This wouldn’t necessarily be a problem – Garak did know Standard, having learned it from a young age as part of his training. Unfortunately, the doctor still thought he was plain and simple Garak the tailor, who would have no business knowing the Federation’s language.

    ~~~~~

    The frustrating part was that Julian actually knew Kardasi, but he couldn’t tell Garak that. He’d learned the language (which was notoriously difficult for foreigners) in about two weeks after befriending Garak, and even read some of Garak’s book recommendations in the original Kardasi. But letting Garak know that would raise questions – questions that Julian wouldn’t be able to answer. So he had to pretend that he didn’t understand.

    ~~~~~

    Or, a Universal Translator malfunction prompts both Garak and Julian to reveal some secrets.

    Summary

    Crowley looks at him, searchingly. "I could do it again?" he asks, hesitantly. Aziraphale flicks his eyes back to Crowley's, pulled from his own thoughts.

    "I don't think my side would like that" he raises his eyebrows ever-so-slightly, the smallest smile at his lips, and Crowley immediately recognises the subtle flirtatious tone in his voice.

    "Oh, he definitely would" Crowley nods, smiling.

    OR

    Shortly after S2E6, Aziraphale appears in the Bentley to fix their goodbye.

    Summary

    “Alright!” Aziraphale stumbles back. His voice cracks, glass glittering and shards slippery with blood and amber. His soul spills over with terror and agony and lust. “Alright! I think... I think about it all the time! I can taste you.” His eyes are brimming, tears hot and accusatory. His hand covers his mouth, as if that can hide his shame. “I can taste you in my mouth, under my tongue, at the back of my throat, every moment, every second. Lingering, like the darkness of chocolate, like the sweetness of poison. I’m sick with it!” His vocal chords are raw, his frantic words flaying his throat. “I’m sick with wanting you!”

    "Captain," he called, his voice blissfully quiet and soothing, "you're running a fever. I was about to bring you to sickbay, but I didn't think you'd appreciate me calling a site to site transport, or carrying you across the bridge."

    Five times the flu muddled things between Janeway and Chakotay, and the one time it made everything clearer.

    Summary

    "So, my dear doctor, what has brought you all the way to Cardassia?”

    “Well, if you must know, this is a rare year when the Cardassian calendar and the Terran calendar align, and solstice and Christmas fall on the same day. It won’t happen again for twelve-hundred and twenty-three years.”

    “So tomorrow...”

    “Is Christmas Day on Earth. More or less.”

    Summary

    The Lanes never sleep.

    The sunken streets may lie beneath Piltover’s heavy shadow, and it's faults are numerous and deadly, but no one can claim that the Undercity is boring.

    There is always colour to be found, if you know where to look.

    It’s something you pride yourself on – the ability to see what others can’t. Some mistake it for simple optimism. But you know it’s more than just that. It’s the thing that’s kept you alive this long, in more ways than one. You've always been happy to go wherever life has taken you, and you're a big believer in gut instinct.

    But you never expected to end up working as a bartender at The Last Drop – having been scouted by a blue haired girl who wouldn't take no for an answer.

    Neither did you expect to find yourself landed with the terrifying task of ensuring Silco's personal drinks cart is kept well stocked.

    And you certainly never expected to find yourself inadvertently become the weekly drinking partner of the Eye of Zaun himself.

    Summary

    Victoria went through her life, 63 years of reign. The Grandmother of Europe. That history was written from the moment she was born, because as a mortal, one always had to live through unbearable foolishness only to gain little wisdom in old age. So she lived then died, full of hindsight. Now she is offered a chance to restart all over again, at the fateful morning of 1837. With what she knew and what she wished she had known, no longer a young naive maiden of 18 but an older woman with regrets, what different choices could she make?

    “It was Lord M, wasn’t it,” he muttered, and there was a hint of resignation in his voice.
    “Yes.”

    “Yes,” she said hesitantly, feeling a blush on her cheeks. Now it was her turn to avert her husband’s gaze.

    Albert finds out about Victoria's sensual dreams with her ex Prime Minister. But instead of anger, he turns to science. What if she just needs closure?
