That first night that isn't a night, she sleeps heavily.

She isn't afraid of the dark.

"Trying to atone for what none of us can change will wear us all thin."

It'd be a better act if it weren't for the warm contentment radiating from her.

Is twenty-four years as it seems on the surface? Or is it several dozen exploratory trips, three heists and a long holiday? In year one.

The second Winsol, they have time to celebrate.

If they're going to continue dancing the dance they began a year and more ago, she needs to give something of herself for what she took of him.

A true Queen, a proper Queen, would have done better.

There's a mess waiting for them, but it's at least eight hours away, surely. Maybe six. Four, knowing their luck. Follows Iron Man II.

It's the first year, and the last. Spoilers for complete series 1-3.

You taught Henry to replace things he was bored with or frightened of and now he's trying to do it to you. Emma/Regina undertones.

After the curse is broken and a return is made to fairytale land, Emma is having trouble adjusting, though receiving assistance from an unexpected source.

House/Atlantis crossover. "You're interested because she's you. She has the potential to be you. Except she has a soul."

Nothing was simple. Never anymore.

As Elphaba vanishes into the Underground life of the Emerald City, Glinda's years of hell are just beginning.

“I consider you lazy and to be adopting a manner that is most unbecoming of a lady that I suspect has some sense in her mind somewhere.”

Glinda was perched on the edge of her bed in only her undergarments, one of Nessa’s shoes dangling from the toes of her right foot.

The first day she wore the shoes, her feet were bleeding by evening. She made Nanny swear not to tell.

“As for you, my dear, I think we can safely say that university is doing you a world of good.”

Tag to Fetal Position. She whirled, clutching her nightdress to her, to find House in the doorway of her bedroom

Had they been in any other situation, he would have considered twirling her round and round and laughing like an idiot, but…they weren’t in any other situation. Spoilers for Unending.

She hated religion. She really did. Ridiculous feast days. How in the hell did the self reflective nature of such events work on those who didn’t believe?

She looked him right in the eye, vision blurred with her tears, and she lied. Doomsday spoilers.

A howl, a broken scream of fury, guilt and loss, echoed through the palace.

Glinda had no idea just how angry she was until she came face to face with Madam Morrible through the bars of a dank, dark, prison cell.

Well, I can tell you, I don’t relish the idea of staying this way forever.

You promised, and I’d hate to think my reform was based on the ideals and good nature of people who go back on their promises…

Can two teenagers take the steps their parents were denied?

He knew that if he deprived Jackie of seeing her daughter on her twenty first birthday he would never, ever, hear the end of it.

Then the screaming started. You halted, stunned, and actually covered your ears, shocked that one person could make so much noise.

PGSM. They dance as spirits in the ruins of their long abandoned kingdom and are free.

No jokes, Rose Tyler, or I might have to bring up the time you backed a Ford Fiesta into a brick wall…

Whether he cares for her or not, she can’t stop herself caring. The man might despise her and she would still be there. Tag to No Reason.

House rested his head on his cane and stared through the glass, eyes narrowed, wondering if he could make her turn round and look by the power of thought. Tag to Need to Know.

He seems strangely quiet and restrained. She’s running like a little girl, shrieking with laughter, and he’s behaving like a guardian.

Today she looked Sarah Jane in the eye and saw everything that could happen to her, all the possibilities, in an instant.

John was clearly a master at the game. Who came up with questions like that right off the top of their head? Really?

She was an outcast, an enigma, outspoken, she wasn’t supposed to be capable of breaking down like a child and sobbing her heart out.

Her selfish nature, Nessa’s wretched soul and Glinda’s false hope. The shoes shone.

Good was a figment. Just something to say when everything turned out right and supposedly nobody got hurt. She had worked and worked and for what?

He could have asked her to end worlds at that moment and she would have done it.

They abandoned Atlantis, yet left her behind, in the hope she could help any who returned.

He had to turn her into a leading member of the USAF in less than an hour, if only one who looked the part.

She’s barely standing really, but she’s smiling and she’s happy, even relieved.

We’re at war, Elizabeth. You and I both know we don’t want to do this and we don’t want to cause harm, but we have people to protect.

Atlantis AU. It might look great on stage, but it’ll leave you wondering what’s going to happen when the lights go down.

Two of the abilities she had already shown them. The third she demonstrated the next morning when she flooded the Infirmary.

She returned to a time she no longer knew, with people who had become strangers in a matter of moments.

He was about ready to kill himself. That, or run screaming for the hills. If there were hills. If he could find any hills.

He is unconscious for the first four days right alongside her.

Who knew John Sheppard’s mental age plummeted further around Christmas?

She isn’t easy to read at times, he knows that much, but he loves that he can read the expressions that throw others completely.

She reasons she had nobody else to turn to, for no one else knows of what went on.

PGSM. The girl she remembers used to be Mars and now calls herself Hino Rei.

Do you really want to play that game, Colonel?

PGSM. But if her love for them shows, it will make her careless, so she shoves it aside.

It was the only option. They had no choice

We explore for a reason, we fight back for a reason. Sometimes I thought it was curiosity, fear. But its not.

Because no matter how much they might take each other’s challenges personally, they knew, deep down, that they were really pushing each other to be better people.

When anybody stated ‘nothing’ it was always ‘something’ even if they were intent on not sharing. TeylaFord friendship.

He remained impassive. Blank. Devastated. Guilty.

She really should have known better than to go shopping with three men.

I guess people expect less of you if they dont know you can do it.

Habits are there to be made. And broken. But the latter isn’t as fun.

Truth be told, she couldn’t say it was only he who was guilty of such behaviour, but then again, Jack always did anything he could to stand out in a crowd, even if it involved flirting with a mail box.

When they dreamt of a love to last through the ages, they didn't mean it quite so literally.

Don’t you ever get the impression we’re livin’ in here like we were in a two bedroom semidetached down in Cornwall?

Do you believe in the past life?

Longest half hour of my life…and that’s saying something for a Time Lord!

She shook her head, curiosity getting the better of her, wanting to go and see just what had prompted such an impressive curse from Jack. And get him to teach it to her.

Rose had already screamed a brief explanation at him, whilst they had both been shouting and cursing each other, in public, on the streets of London.

The Doctor was staring at the packet of biscuits in the middle of the kitchen table like they were going to march from the packet and eat him.

She still grabs his hand as they run for their lives, still smiles at him, hoping her expression matches the one he remembers. She knows it doesn’t and probably never will, but it will have to do, at least for the time being.

And neither of you think there was anything wrong with your behaviour?

John folded his arms and slouched in his chair, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

The day he didn’t return through the Gate…she changed.

It’s the rule. You know the rule. There are no exceptions to the rule.

The music had practically deafened him before he got there, but he didn’t expect the scene before him to cause him so much pain. DoctorRose

Rose runs into someone all too familiar. DoctorRose

He winced, knowing he’d been caught. However, he refused to show such a guilty expression to her, and so straightened, turning to face her with an innocent smile. DoctorRose

He was the one she hated for making her love him.

Recently, she had been spending most of her days more stressed out than she would admit, even to him, and being forced to be so emotionally highly strung was starting to take its toll on her.

PGSM. They’re the same and they’re different.

Tell me what’s going on here. Just tell me, I’m this close to beyond caring, either way.

He felt a peace within the group that had been absent, now that he thought about it, for many years. Spoilers for Threads.

She refused to answer the questions shot at her by those observing, glaring straight ahead at one man in particular.

She was different on Earth.

PGSM. This feeling had haunted her before…and she could suddenly place it in the past life she had fought so hard to escape.

An obsessive preoccupation and strong attachment to a person. Just be careful you dont get hooked. AU and 'humour' version of Infatuation.

He's about to learn the real meaning of the word... Follow up to Foreign Ammunition.

PGSM. Spoilers for the Special Act. 'I always wanted you to live as Minako, but not just as 'Aino Minako: Superstar'.'

He didn't know she could use language like that...

…You spent the past four hours hacking a tree down…?

Weir smirked uncharacteristically and folded her arms across her chest, staring at John and attempting not to laugh.

It should have been a simple choice.

Chakotay glanced across at her, suddenly all too aware of the silence on the Bridge, deciding to go ahead anyway, “…One day you’re going to be so alone that even you wont be able to take it.”

Seriously, guys, are we just going to stand here cowering under a tree afraid of a little rain?

I'll show you how to, in eight easy steps, I'll show you how leadership looks when taught by the best.

Get out of the car, Sam, or I use the horn and he’ll have to get out here to see what’s going on...

And yet there she was, listening intently, not even looking at him anymore. Completely ignoring him. Looking all 'innocent'...

[Battle Royale fic] Murderess. I am a murderess. But of course, they dont call me that.

Sam chose to remain silent. Suddenly, the most important men in her life were slowly going nuts.

This is a most pointless argument...

SG1 are shot into a world they can't begin to understand. Soon after arriving, Sam starts having 'strange' dreams. Finished.

She grit her teeth and glared down the phone. Like that was going to her any good.

...I guess this is another one of his 'days'.

There are some things parents should never have to do. Finished.

Somebody has to explain you to people.

They were on their feet instantly, standing together, glaring defiance.

Careful what you touch...... you might become addicted.

I remember when she came home, flushed, and collapsed on the sofa beside me. I was six at the time, much in awe of my adult sister, and simply stared as she declared, with a laugh, that she was in love.

The General leant against the back wall, smiling to himself, wondering whether or not she was going to notice she had company. Supposed Season 8 Spoilers

Trinity needs to know the answer from Neo. Except talking isn't going to cut it; she wants to fight him.

Some things you thought you always knew, could depend on.

Jack goes crazy with Post-It notes, Sam takes revenge, then Daniel and Janet have a little fun of their own.

Jack makes a bet with Sam that he's surely going to regret.....
