Summary
“You conned everyone into believing you had this perfect life and now your sitting here trying to fool me too, but guess what?” He leaned forward further so that his breath tickled the tip of Daniels nose and the magician leaned forward too, attempting to keep up the front a little while longer while the memories he had always worked to keep at bay tried to force themselves into the forefront of his mind, “I’m on to you and no matter how long it takes I will crack you, because your childhood may have been fucked up, but no one’s above the law.”

Summary
Sometimes when Shawn got too deep into that train of thought, the one that crept up at the corners when they arrived on the scene of a new case and Gus seemed less and less fazed, he was grateful. That was the really sick thing, was that he was grateful. He wanted Gus to be using him in some way, even if it was as small as believing in his stupidity, his inability to sit still, to focus. If he was, maybe Shawn was justified in having this. In hoarding Gus close to him and exposing him to horror after horror because he was too selfish to let go.
Or: Three different one-shot episode codas where I create a lot of angst for no apparent reason. (summery from second one shot)

Summary
From the moment he saw the two of them he knew what their fate would be. It made his heart ache to watch them, so carefree and content when he knew what pain their future held. He took them in, taught them, protected them from Thetis, of course he did, he wanted to grant them as much joy as he could for as long as he could. The burden of their fate was one he carried alone, and it was better that way, for he was Chiron, used to the heavy load of prophecy. He could shoulder it, he had learned to long ago.

Summary
He stops doing it, as soon as he doesn't need to. Instead, he stays rooted in one place, to take whatever jobs he can—whatever can hold his attention long enough for his mind to turn off. Of course, it’s never long before he starts picking up patterns, solving cases made up of co-worker drama and whatever else that doesn’t matter. The perfect mind for the perfect detective that he’ll never be.

Summary
Shawn Spencer and Carlton Lassiter have been quietly navigating the early days of their new relationship—so discreet, in fact, that even their closest friends and family haven’t caught wind. But their low-key romance hits a serious snag when Shawn’s charming (and suspiciously well-timed) ex breezes back into town, determined to reclaim his place in Shawn’s life.
Lassiter suddenly finds himself walking an emotional tightrope. Yet, it’s not just jealousy in the air—there’s something darker lurking beneath the surface. Shawn’s ex isn’t just trouble... he might be dangerous. And this time, it’s not just their relationship on the line—it’s their lives.

Summary
“What’s going on?”
Scott made a strange, whiny noise at the back of his throat that made him sound a little like a kicked puppy. “Your scent.” He pulled on Stiles’s hoodie until their noses were practically touching.
“Scott, buddy, you’re going to have to be more specific.” Stiles rubbed a circle on the back of Scott’s hand with his thumb. “You know I don’t have werewolf senses.”
“You smell like… like…” Scott fumbled for words, his brow furrowed deeply. His eyes started to look a little wet, and that was something Stiles could not deal with.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay. I’m okay. Just tell me what’s wrong and we’ll fix it. I’ll—I dunno—shower really good, I promise.”
“You smell like something claimed you,” Scott finally said in a horrified whisper.

Summary
At sixteen, Prince Merlin saw his kingdom destroyed and was forced into an engagement with King Cenred just because of his magic. Now, two years later and on the eve of his wedding, Merlin's crew takes him out on a final voyage before he's forced to give up his beloved ship and way of life forever in exchange for a life of darkness with Cenred. But it isn't long before the trip takes a turn for the worst and Merlin finds himself kidnapped yet again, this time by the unfairly hot and unbearably arrogant Prince Arthur Pendragon of Camelot, the very same kingdom with a reputation for making sorcerers’ heads roll. This should be fun...
