    Summary

     

    The wolf beneath Shane's skin is not some committed leader, intent on controlling others. Yes, his designation fits well with his need to protect those he loves. To protect innocents. But, his alpha status is not the same caliber as Ilya Rozanov's.

            In this moment, it's both good and bad news. If Ilya manages to do what his brother has tasked him with, Shane won't suffer too much in changing designations. The pride in him is attached to his accomplishments, not whether or not he can pop a knot. But on the other hand, his flexibility practically guarantees that, with enough time and effort, Ilya will succeed. They will end up permanently mated. All because Shane couldn't sleuth stealthily enough.

    Or, Agent Shane Hollander gets caught, cover blown. It's up to Ilya, their confidential informant, to save him. But will the price be worth it?

    Summary

    “It won’t be like last time,” Ed promises, solemnly.

    Because, if Stede ever truly decides he wants out, there won’t be a fight for dominance. Ed will simply take the knife that rests at his hip, force it into Stede’s hand, and together they’ll drive it into Ed’s heart.

    Or,

    Ed wants to believe Stede when he says he'll never leave again. So, he makes a surprise visit to Bridgetown, Barbados under an assumed name to reassure himself with a look at the life Stede left behind.

    It's not as reassuring as he'd hoped.

    Summary

    He’d been sure he’d be able to keep his mandatory android powered off and hidden in the closet of his bedroom, maybe just take it out to do the house-cleaning once a week. At most, if he was feeling lazy, he’d give the thing a grocery list and have it do the shopping while he watched a game on the outdated, second hand, flat screen.

    But the first problem with that plan presented itself a few seconds after Steve entered Danny’s home - he didn’t have an off switch.

    Summary

    In this, the final part to this series :

    Physically, Danny's free and clear of Delano, who is in jail, and Wo Fat, who is also in jail.
    Mentally, though...the news is less than good.
    He's always had problems with anxiety. For all that he's good under pressure, once the pressure is gone, Danny's left adrift in a lake filled with both big and small sanity-eating Anguish Fish.

    If the aftermath of the different levels of violation he suffered at Delano's hands isn't enough, it's the little things that are pushing him towards the bottom of a downward spiral. Doris being shady, Lori flirting, Steve taking risks, Rachel throwing unexpected news at him...

    Let's just say, Danny's getting so bombarded on all sides by Anguish Fish, he's starting to drown.

    Summary

    There's no excuse.

    It's Danny's fault. He was negligent. Sometimes you don’t realize what you don't know until it's too late, but it should've occurred to him to check whether Delano was still with HPD. Especially after all the changes he's introduced into this timeline.

    Instead, he just assumes.

    Fuck, he shouldn't have assumed.

    Summary

    Relationships don't exist in a vacuum. They're influenced by the people you know, knew, and will know. By mutual issues. By the quality of communication, or lack thereof.

    With the Governor still awkwardly in office, Charlie's Not-Birthday coming up , Steve in Japan, Lori suddenly on the team, and Wo Fat's phone call to wait for, Danny's sure his two weeks as leader of Five-0 are going to be a piece of cake.

    Yup, pineapple cake. Why is this his life?

    Summary

    There are two realities.

    In one, Bilbo watched Thorin die on Ravenhill, moved back to the Shire, and adopted Frodo, whose presence helped soften the edges of his grief.

    In the other, Thorin survived BOTFA, courted Bilbo and made him his consort. Then, three years after the battle, Bilbo dies in a field, trampled beneath the hooves of a plow horse. He lies buried in Erebor. Thorin bleeds with the pain all dwarrows who have lost their Ones know.

    So, when Bilbo suddenly turns up in Erebor, alive and well, Thorin's not willing to let him go. His soul recognizes his One, even across realities, and he's not willing to listen to anyone who suggests he should release Bilbo.

    Not even if it means saving his kingdom from starvation.
    But, in what world would Bilbo Baggins let Erebor starve for the sake of his own selfish love?

    Summary

    Thorin's heart aches for Bilbo, but it was not his right to ask him to stay and now it's too late. He's gone. He's been gone for ten years, but it's not been any easier. He's resigned to the fact that he'll be alone for the rest of his days.

    Until he gets kidnapped.

    By four hobbit babes, no less.
