Lololova
A collection of those one shots I consider too small to stand on their own. So, stories with less/around 1k words each. Will most likely post them on Tumblr (lololova) too since, after a poll on Twitter (lololovax), that's what most of you guys wanted. All will be about Castle and Beckett and the things/people surrounding them (but still with Caskett as the main).
