On This Episode of Naked and Embarrassed
Fandom: Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Characters/Pairings: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, mentioned (and recently ended) Lynn Downey/Steve McGarrett
Rating: NC-17 (Explicit smut)
Length: 2422 words
Content notes: Smut with the thinnest veneer of plot, including some mild angst, mutual pining, fluff, and humor. This isn't set during a particular time, but the earliest it can take place is after 6.07 when Lynn is first introduced. For the purposes of this story, just pretend that Danny is single.
Author notes: Written for Challenge 193 "Fast or Slow" at
fan_flashworks. (The prompt comes more into play when the actual smut happens later in the fic and near the end). Also written for this prompt on fic-promptly. The title is inspired by the reality show Naked and Afraid on the Discovery Channel.
Summary: "I, uh, I'm at my house." Danny frowned in confusion. Why would he need me to get him if he's at his house? Actually, outside my house. Locked outside in my backyard. And, uh... naked."

Title: The Next Step
Fandom: Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Characters/Pairings: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams
Rating: PG-13/T (Fade to black)
Length: 1579 words
Content notes: Fluff, with some mild angst and mutual pining before the happy ending. Spoilers for the recent season finale, and the fic is a sequel to the initial episode coda that I wrote entitled Going in the Right Direction on AO3. I've written this fic to quickly summarize what happened plot-wise in that piece, but it may add something to your experience to read that as well since it's from a different POV.
Author notes: Written for Challenge 191 "Abandon" at
fan_flashworks.
Summary: Steve was sure Danny only loved him as a friend and was trying to avoid getting his hopes up for what couldn't be, but Danny wasn't making it easy on him.

Poolside Problems
Fandom: Angel the series
Characters/Pairings: Angel/Cordelia Chase, mentions of other people in the cast.
Rating: R (references to some smut things, but I don't think it's explicit enough to be NC-17)
Length: 1693 words
Content notes: Somewhat AU since the team it's set in early season 3 (Wes is still part of the group). Angel POV with his mildly smutty thoughts about Cordelia in a bikini. Mild angst, some fluff, and ridiculous pining.
Author notes: Written for Challenge #190 "Pool" at
fan_flashworks. I'm back and hope to be participating more regularly in this community.
Summary: Angel had been looking forward to the new pool, but right now he was currently researching Cordelia's latest vision while everyone else on the team was splashing around. He had claimed that he was doing it for the mission, but that wasn't the full truth. The vision wasn't due to come true for another three days, and Angel could have joined his friends.

Title: Steve's Weird Version of Hitting on Danny
Fandom: Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Characters/Pairings: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, Chin and Kono show up near the end.
Rating: PG-13/T
Length: 2022 words
Content notes: Some discussion of hypothermia and claustrophobia, with Danny having a panic attack near the beginning due to his claustrophobia. Mostly humor and fluff.
Author notes: Written for Challenge #183 Amnesty at
fan_flashworks and using the "comfort" and "cliché" challenges (since they're huddling for warmth, which is a total fanfic cliché). Also a fill for this prompt on fic_promptly (Dreamwidth). I was also inspired by this story written in a totally different fandom.
Summary: If Steve asked, Danny would blame the blush that rose on his face from the cold (which would be a bald-faced lie, but better that than the truth). But Steve didn't question anything. He just nudged Danny's shoulder, and Danny lay down on the floor of the freezer. Steve lay next to him, pressing himself as close to Danny as he could and slipping an arm over the middle of his back.

Title: Be My Friend, Hold Me
Fandom: Angel (the series)
Characters/Pairings: Angel/Cordelia Chase
Rating: PG
Length: 432 words
Content notes: Set in early season 3, before 3.11 (Birthday). Centered on Cordelia's violent vision episodes. Somewhat subtexty since it's from Cordy's POV in early season 3 (and she was fairly oblivious on the show). Slight codependency.
Author notes: Written Challenge #183 Amnesty at
fan_flashworks and using the "comfort" challenge. Also a fill for this prompt on
comment_fic. The title is from lyrics in Sia's song "Breathe Me." I was also inspired by this Cordelia-centric video set to that song.

Characters/Pairings: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams
Rating: PG-13/T (possibly edging into M territory)
Length: 1157 words
Content notes: Set in an alternate timeline that ignores the events of 6.25; episode 7.10 happened in the same way. Some drunkenness, and Steve gets handsy without asking first. He isn't being intentionally predatory, however, and he does stop touching Danny when he thinks Danny is upset with him.

Characters/Pairings: Angel/Cordelia Chase
Rating: NC-17 (explicit smut)
Length: 1464 words
Content notes: Handwaved away the "happiness clause" to Angel's curse for smut purposes. Established relationship, but first time they get to do certain things together. Inspired by the phrase "salty goodness" and that scene when Cordelia first sees Angel in the Bronze back on Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1.07 Never Kill a Boy on the First Date).

Title: Take Me to Church
Fandom: Hawaii Five-0
Characters/Pairings: Danny Williams centric, with Danny Williams/Steve McGarrett as the main pairing. References to past Danny Williams/Rachel Edwards, past one-sided Danny Williams/Billy Selway, and past one-sided Danny Williams/unnamed male characters.
Rating: PG-13/T
Length: 2098 words
Content notes: Set after 6.25. The main warning for this fic is religiously-based homophobia that is somewhat internalized by the main character (resolved by the end of the story). There is discussion of canon events that would require warnings (near main character death, marital infidelity, murder, and the mutilation of Matty Williams's body in 5.04). There is also some referenced/implied sexual content. For the purposes of this fic, Danny is single. Danny's religious views and background in this story is based on headcanons about Danny developed from scenes in 1.02 and 2.07. I did a little bit of research, but some artistic liberties were taken with the confession ritual.
Author notes: Written for the 30th amnesty round at
fan_flashworks and the challenge "confession." The title is taken from the song "Take Me To Church" by Hozier. (As far as I understand, it can't qualify for the borrowed title challenge because the title is from a song, not a book or movie.) The flashback and the text messages are set off by italics.
Summary: Danny's first instinct, whenever he had something to confess, was to go to a priest.

Author notes: Written for the

Summary: They had been together for everything else, so it made sense that now they would be together for this.
