Title: Slow ripening fruit
Fandom: Good Omens

Content notes: Contains reference to previous canonical character death, minor sword injury (self-inflicted), vague descriptions of blood. But largely schmoop :)

( Burning star (takes all night) )

Characters: Darcy Lewis/Clint Barton, Jane Foster, Tony Stark, Jarvis
Rating: Teen
Length: 1,426 words
Content notes: Contains swearwords, character trapped in a distressing situation
Author notes: Set post Avengers Assemble but largely ignores any canon after that. Moderately ambiguous on the nature of the relationship between Darcy and Clint, so tagged for authorial intent :)

( Slipstream )

Fandom: Panic! at the Disco
Characters: Brendon Urie/Jon Walker, Spencer Smith, Ryan Ross
Rating: Mature
Length: 1,912 words
Content notes: Contains swearwords, sexually suggestive situations, mild power dynamics, mild restraint.
Author notes: Panic v2 fic (after the departure of the original bassist, but before the band fractured into many constituent pieces, and long before it was just Brendon Urie). Purely self-indulgent ridiculousness :)
Summary: Spencer's stress is directly proportional to Brendon's boredom. Fortunately, Jon has a solution...

( Play it now, shout it loud )

Summary: Grace makes a choice. It doesn't play out the way she expected.

( Second chance emotion )

Rating: Teen
Length: 2,239 words (sigh)
Content notes: Contains swearwords, some maipulation (of off-screen characters), discussion of sex, ridiculous implausibility, excessive use of italics
