Summary
Dexter gets to Trinity before he can kill Rita, and he meets her that night in the keys. He knows how close he came to losing her---after all the shit he'd put her through, all the lies, all the times he hadn't been there---and he knows now that he'll tell her everything, that he'll willingly turn himself in, before he ever lets her go. He's going to be better. For her, for the kids.
It all starts with a getaway. Dexter's going to change, he's going to do what he has to for the sake of his family---but first, he's going to spend a long weekend in bed with his wife. And in the shower. And, uh.... on the kitchen table?
His first step towards becoming a better person: learn how to be honest with Rita, even when it's terrifying. He might even learn she can more than handle it.

Summary
Walt Disney World. Crowded, full of families and screaming children and the occasional alcoholic. The last place you'd expect to find a serial killer. But the best serial killers, the smartest ones, might very well be sitting right next to you on your sweaty monorail ride back to your hotel. It should've been obvious, then, to me, that---in the entirety of such a large property---there could even be two of us.
---
Dexter Morgan, being the family man that he is, takes his family to Disney World. He isn't planning on killing anyone, of course. Actually, he's looking forward to a week of peace, strangely enough. But his plans for a normal family vacation fall apart when he breaks one of his father's most important rules: don't get emotionally involved. But he's starting to doubt a lot of those rules, and now, torn between the risk of getting caught and the risk of losing the people he cares about, he'll have to make a choice---to keep living the life his father built for him, or to get what he wants for a change.

Summary
This idea of goodness that is imposed upon him, the imaginary rules, boxes and glass ceilings created by people who despise his very existence, that is what he panders to. The people who would rather hang him for living than loving him for holding back, Dexter doesn’t see it as well as I did when I was his age. The world does not love their saints, they do not worship their saviours, they get bored of them, get rid of them and ask for another more mouldable hero. Dexter is not a hero, he is a damaged boy, this is something I know more than he does.
OR
Retelling of the scenes during Brian’s death. But he’s also a transmasc he/she butch lesbian who goes by Brian and is very gender fuckery.
Her queerness isn’t really a major focus but it’s there
I can reclaim any slurs I use in my work, this isn’t me being hateful, I’m just trying to be realistic.

C.P.C.A: The Criminal Population Containment Agency by THATmerlinguy

Summary
Dexter Morgan is a blood splatter analyst for Miami Metro Police Department, the best one at that. Dexter Morgan is also the dark defender of Miami, a serial killer that hunts killers. The best one at that, too.
Alexei L. Novikov is a secret agent for a morally questionable agency, used to doing most of the job alone. And yet, is one of the best workers in the Agency.
Until they get forced to find a new agent for the Squad.Dexter pictured himself working alone until the end of his days, feeding his Moondancer. His dark passenger.
Alexei just wants to have a decent partner, and if stalking and begging for the blood guy to join them is enough to get that, then that’s what they’ll do.
NOTES: CPCA is for an original work, along with the original characters. But i wanted to make a Dexter/CPCA fic first because... well, i want to. Also, if the title of the chapter starts with a song reference it's going to focus a little bit more on the OC's, if it's a Dexter reference (series or novel) then it's focused on the Dexter characters.
Every chapter will have a song at the beginning or the end for you to listen to :)Series
