    Summary

    “Can I hold your hand?” Barry interrupts, and abruptly scatters whatever ideas Len had started pulling together. “Just, just for a second. I’m not. No tricks, I promise.” The jazz hands he offers as a demonstration of innocent intent do no favours for the edge of mania he’s giving off.

    “I’m not exactly the hand holding type, in cas-”

    “Please.” Barry interrupts again, and Len blames the bizzarity of the situation for the hand he raises in offer. It’s not holding so much as it’s Barry grasping Len’s between both of his own suddenly bare ones and doubling over them in a strange imitation of veneration. He watches a shudder ripple through Barry, head to toe, and the energy he’s been practically buzzing with seems to leave all at once, siphoned off into the ether. They stand like that for several long moments—moments that Len absolutely does not spend gaping like an idiot—before Barry straightens, tips his head back, and groans like he’s relieved.

    tl;dr: Barry gets cursed. And, somehow, this is Len's problem. Set some amorphous time post-singularity, ignores any cannon past that point.

    Summary

    The blades of the helicopter hadn’t stopped spinning once they had crashed. The earth was cut up, bits of sheared rock and fresh dirt tossed up around it. The tail took the worst of the hit, crumpling into a mangled heap of metal. The body of the machine was on its side, dented and crushed like a tin can. It was a wonder Ravi had made it out as well as he had. He must’ve been on the side that was pointed towards the sky, still hooked into his seat. Which meant that the side Buck had been sitting on, next to Eddie…

    Before he knew it he was walking. If Ravi had pulled Buck and the pilot out, where were they now? The cleared area this side of the wreckage was empty save for a few stray pieces of metal and broken tree limbs.

    Ravi came alive suddenly, reaching for him. “Wait, don’t, Eddie,” he said, his voice laced with something new, something Eddie felt deeply in his bones.

    “Is he hurt?” Eddie’s words shook with the fear he now felt tenfold.

     

    In which a tragedy on the edge of a firestorm leaves part of the 118 stranded and struggling to survive in the wilderness. Left entirely to their own devices, the survivors fight to come home, alive.

    Summary

    In a galaxy where the Force has crafted soulmates for the people who live in it, there are also sacred guides that appear to guide two lost souls together to seal their soul bond with a fated kiss.

    Unfortunately, the guides are also loud, feathered, and will bite you. The guiding experience is not particularly pleasant.

    Anakin and Padmé's mornings both become much more exciting when they each wake up to pairs of horrible geese hell-bent on leading them to their soulmates. Obi Wan's already been kidnapped for a couple of days, so two geese manifesting in his cell isn't as big a deal.
