The Pros and Cons of Breathing, by moosesquirrelkittenandking

The most disturbing thing was the bullet that had frozen in midair between the man in black and Tony. He stared at it for a long moment. “So that’s it, huh?” he wondered aloud to the still and silent cafe. “Just like that.”

“Not quite, Tony,” a hauntingly familiar voice said from beside him. He jumped, immediately looking to the side. Standing next to him, looking just as he remembered her, was Special Agent Caitlin Todd. Brunette hair hung in her brown eyes, and she smiled up at him. He could smell her. He could hear her breathing. “You look old,” she commented with a smirk.

Teen, AU. “Life Before His Eyes”, DiNozzo-style. This is a great game of “what-if”, with lovely Kate/Tony interactions, even if they’re not the endgame. Also very much enjoyed glimpses into the alternate timeline, which was just different enough from Gibbs’ experience in the episode – excepting the sad lack of Abby/McGee.

Oh boy, this brings back memories, beautifully encapsulating the epic love these two shared, the sizzling chemistry and the endless angst both. It was the early days of internet fandom blowing up, and I was a Dreamer all the way… 🙂 Music by Sarah McLachlan (which is perfect, considering when the show aired *g*).

Go on little girl, feet twirl, go and make him smile, by Signe (oxoniensis)

Head on his shoulders, and she lets him carry her to their bedroom. Her skirt’s all bunched up when he puts her down, and she feels the dirtiest she’s ever felt. Dirty little girl on a tryst, and she’s going to fuck this man until he begs.

Adult, established relationship, pegging. Not sure I completely buy this, but oh my, it’s hot like burning while still being sweet. My favourite combo!

this town is a song about you, by femmenerd

Being Rory’s husband is different from being her boyfriend. Different from the last extended time, nothing like the half-assed one before that, but in some ways similar to the beginning. They have routines, an ever-evolving set of in-jokes; he feels like he’s hers.

Mature, post-series. I’ve always had a soft spot for Dean. This hits that perfect Gilmore Girls tone, warm and funny and overall happy-making.

“My father was a monster. You are a monster. And I am a monster.”

Wolfgang empties the gun and tastes blood in his mouth. He’s sure he’s dead well before he stops shooting and throws the gun against the wall.

He turns and he knows that she’s there. He could feel her with him, the feeling of her…

Teen, post-season 1. This is a gorgeous Kala POV, with perfect appearances by the cluster. *hearteyes*

Rediscoveries, by Salmon_Pink

She presses one hand over his chest, firm against his heart. It beats faster now, a steady thrum even when he’s still, but the pulse reminds her of the way it would beat before the experiments when he was excited, when he was happy or scared or full of love for her. 

 “Still the same,” she promises, and Pietro stares at her, stares into her, and Wanda knows the very moment she has his acceptance.

Adult, pre-AoU, incest, established relationship. Wanda and Pietro rediscover one another after the experiments. Love their connection here, and the way the changes in them affect their love-making.
