Set after Kensi's return from Afghanistan. Callen returns to Ops late one night and finds Deeks working through some issues. Can the pair of them work through their demons and come out whole. My first story co-written with Callen37

Henrietta Lange should have had a plan A, B, and C on how to deal with Deeks' reaction to Kensi missing in Afghanistan. If she had, she wouldn't be sitting in the hallway of Director Vance's office, needing to explain how her police officer went rogue and tore up half of Afghanistan looking for her.

It started out with Deeks needing every minute of that sleep - but just as importantly, he needed her there. Sleep isn't nearly as elusive as it used to be- but the need for her to be there hasn't ebbed. Post ep from 5x01 and onward for season 5. Spoilers may occur.

Castle comes over Beckett's apartment and finds her wearing Josh's shirt. Post 4x06 Demons.

What seems like a standard pop and drop murder becomes much more complex for Castle and Beckett, and old friends, new friends and old enemies and new enemies make an appearance. Or do they? The moral of the story is: There are people you just don't mess with. The story is now COMPLETE!

"Are you telling me that your father's bachelor party is being organized by two guys who are desperate to impress, and you have just equipped them with a limitless credit card and every phone number and contact that your father has gained over a lifetime of debauchery?"

More of my AU take on the events following The Third Man and Caskett's dinner at Remy's. What's this? Is UCSBdad, well known hopeless romantic turning to the dark side?

Follows episode 4x11, "Till Death Do Us Part." -COMPLETE-
