1 Lashes, Lashes (We All Fall Down) His skin burns to the touch, as if she holds a live flame, but Badb cares not. "Triple queen would have heard you speak straight," she schools him. "Now she wages war." Pre-Issue 10. Baphomet/Morrigan; impact play, S&M, whipping, misunderstandings.

1 Nine While Nine Annie slips among them, unseen save for the children that stare and smile shyly from behind their parents' legs, and the punks who nod in recognition at seeing one of their own. They don't realize how closely they brush with death, an acoustic guitar from her days as one of them slung across her back; no need for theater halls and concert stages.

1 Bad Company It's four in the morning - or something like it - when they stumble out of the cigarettes-and-perspiration smog of wherever it is that underworld gods hold their karaoke nights, her fingers tangled with the Morrigan's and Baphomet close enough behind her that Laura can feel the heat radiating off of him. Set during issue 7. Baphomet/Morrigan/Laura; friends-with-benefits, threesome

1 It's Not A Fashion Statement He's no more ready for it than he was a moment, a week, two months ago. Baphomet/Morrigan; Fear play, suicidal thoughts, some body horror.

2 Flesh and Blood She catches up to Nebula on one of the outer star systems; more precisely, a moon known only by letters and numbers, tucked into the atmosphere of a gas giant.

4Everything You Ever » "There was a man," The demon hurries to say, its eyes focused warily on Castiel's blade, "a man you pulled out of hell, who broke the first seal holding Lucifer's cage. A man who convinced you to help him stop the apocalypse. The righteous man. Michael's true vessel. Ringing any bells?" Dark Destiel, horror/tragedy, AU Post-season 5.

1 Home Is Where The Heart Is Natalia and James are Russian sleeper agents pretending to be a wholesome, happily married American family (who occasionally still do field work, for no discernible reason). Falling in love was never part of the job. Bucky/Natasha PWP.

3 Love Into the Light Being disgustingly in love with Steve was a fact of life, as much as anything else ever was. It's not like Bucky thought they could actually have a future together… Until he'd lived when he should have died, Steve became a super soldier and a national icon overnight, and everything else went topsy turvy all at once. Mutually unrequited love/pining, and a slice of 1945.

1 All These Things We Leave Unsaid He's unsure of where they stand for a single, stomach-dropping second, the hot flash of terror that accompanies it not unlike how it feels to phase between levels of reality without the aid of the bifrost. Thorki; PWP.

8Bend me, Break me Mold me, Make me » Soulmateverse; Tony and Loki are kidnapped by some mad scientist and experimented on, in the hope of artificially creating a soulmate bond. Neither of them are very happy with this plan. Reluctant, but eventual Tony/Loki, torture/mindf-ckery.
