Summary
Reunion. Marriage. Travel + the year of honeymoons. Excessive fluff. Physical separation + sadness. Divorce. Abject misery. The Pit of Despair. An (eco)-pirate? Reunion (again). Reconciliation. A sunset. Reacquaintance. Romance. Fluff. Emotional journey as fluff. Even more excessive fluff. Really just enormously excessive amounts of fluff. (Re)marriage. Another sunset. Happily ever after.
True love has never been smooth sailing.
This story takes our two lovely science nerds from Costa Rica to Paris, with several stops along the way; to the Pit of Despair; to Las Vegas and to San Diego; and to quite an extended reunion. There are two marriages and definitely one very happily-ever-after ending. And did I mention the fluff-to-angst ratio is about 14 to 1? (I did the math.)

Summary
What if the San Francisco lecture where Sara Sidle and Gil Grissom first met (“Toe Tags,” 07x03) did not take place at the 1998 AAFS Conference in San Francisco where Sara had a ponytail and too many questions about anthropology (“A La Cart,” 08x02)? What if they had an (intimate) encounter five years earlier? And what if . . . what if it involved a hot-dog cart?
This story was written for @ficwip’s #5k 2023 AU challenge.

Your Love Is Better Than Chocolate by hollygl125

Summary
A discussion of tastes, set during a February 2016 celebration. (The choice of which celebration I leave to you.)
This is a short bit of amorous fluff written for the @ficwip “Hey, Sweetheart” 2024 challenge.
The fact that our leading man has canonically called his beloved “sweetheart” seems almost like cheating, so I set myself the additional challenge of making our two lovely science nerds repeat all the terms of endearment they’ve used in canon—as well as some they’ve only used in fic.

Summary
February 12, 1998. The 50th Annual AAFS Conference. The Hilton San Francisco and Towers Hotel.
Sara Sidle had never been to a forensic academy conference before.
Sara Sidle had never invited herself up to a man’s hotel room before.
Sara Sidle had never spent the night with a man 15 years her senior before.
But there’s a first time for everything.

Summary
Some say fantasies are “best kept private.”
I think fantasies are best when shared.
Our two lovely science nerds share some fantasies past (2006-2013) and look toward the future (2015-2016). There’s a bit of a retrospective—and a bit of an ode to GSR AUs of years gone by. And there’s a New Year’s kiss, of course.

Summary
A fall 1998 ride on the Santa Cruz boardwalk’s Giant Dipper roller coaster leads to some seaside intimacy for our two lovely science nerds. (Maybe there’s a reason they’re so drawn to the water.)

Summary
What if CSI Sara Sidle had another identity? What if Special Agent Gina Toscano didn’t just up and move to Mandyville? What if the thread of her fate had already tied her to someplace—and, more importantly, someone—else?
This story imagines what if Gina Toscano and Sara Sidle were really one and the same. It depicts extracts of phone conversations between Sara/Gina and her sometimes lover, Gil Grissom—taking place in the period between when she first joins First Daughter Zoey Bartlet’s Secret Service detail in February 2000; through the shooting, by a white supremacist terror organization, at Rosslyn, Virginia in May 2000; and up until her eventual reunion with Grissom in Las Vegas in October 2000—as well as one very intimate in-person encounter.
