Summary
By the time 1989 rolls around, Hob is tired.
The world moves faster now than it did, full of flashing lights and cars and loud music and crowds, and yet, that quickening pace makes every second tick by ever so slowly. He can practically feel the sands of time trickling through him, hour by hour, day by day, decade by decade. It’s been six-hundred years, give or take, and the grains ought to be eroding away at him by now. Instead, they slip through like he’s a sieve.
It’s exhausting, the twentieth century. Between the wars and Modernist poetry and fucking credit scores, he thinks it might be nice to sleep for a century.
In which Hob Gadling waits, hopes, drinks, swears, and, after six-hundred years, finally come face-to-face with Death.

Summary
Shirley Tate: Why are you bringing this issue to court? What exactly are you hoping for? Revenge? Money?
[Bryant flashes the crowd a cheeky grin.]
Park: As your lawyer, I am asking you to think before you speak, Mark.
[Bryant’s face falls; he is serious again.]
Bryant: You’re right. I’m not the only victim of the AM. I’m not the only Atypical who has been hurt by their practices and their policies. I’m not the only person who has been hurt by the US government and their willingness to brush us under the rug. But maybe I can be one of the last.
Shirley Tate: You haven’t answered my question. What is it you want?
Bryant: Justice. For me, and for the future.
—
Mark Bryant brings the US government to court for his mistreatment while held hostage by the Boston Atypical Monitor facility. The world reacts. A story told in texts, tweets, transcripts, and court documents.

Summary
Sophie isn’t sure she’s any closer to knowing who she is, but she’s always known Jane, and despite the changes, it’s still her. Yes, there are more lines on her face, and her clothes fit just a bit better than they had on Nemea, sleeves bunching over new, lean muscle and a broader frame that she tries to hide under an ill-fitting sweatshirt that must have belonged to Moreau in high school. Her hair has been cut — gone is the long, messy braid, now replaced by a sleek, severe bob cut that barely grazes her chin.She almost looks Medean.
Sophie still wants to kiss her.
Fuck, she’s got it bad.
It's been a year since Sophie was whisked away by Omikron to delegate with the Others - a year since Jane was taken to Medea, a year since she's seen her, held her hand, kissed her - and yet, she still hasn't figured out how to say "I love you."

Summary
Martin Blackwood is many things: a poet, a boyfriend, a son, a caretaker… and, though he doesn’t want to admit it, an Archivist. The knowledge sits heavy in him, but he does not ask Jon for confirmation.
As he ascends the steps of the tower at the beginning of the end of the ruined world to kill the Archive, he wonders if ignorance can be bliss even if it's feigned.
Another take on MAG200 told through memories, statements, and the realization that even a monster will burn if doused in love like gasoline.

Summary
You used to pity them. You used to be curious about them, used to be eager to learn how they worked and lived and loved. Your friends — their names do not fit in your mouth now that you’re trapped in this human form — they told you that you were a fool to get so close.
Humans, they said, were dangerous, but you didn’t understand.
One wrong step and humans bleed. One wrong fall and they die. They are fragile and breakable and their lives are so fucking small.
You wanted to protect them.
They want to dissect you.
The doctors are precise when they cut into the entity known as H-57. The entity does not bother fighting back.
A fic about vivisection, death, and what it means to be human.

Summary
Hardison starts a live-stream for Dragon Age to show off his new mods. And he kicks ass. But his viewers are actually a bit more concerned about the angry guy in the background of his videos, and the blond chick who keeps peering through his windows.
"Is this some kind of performance art," asks peskytroll341.

Summary
Hob has been around death. Living in London throughout multiple plague outbreaks and fires, as well as making a living soldiering and dabbling in banditry, will do that to you. What he doesn't know is that Death has been around Hob as well. He has no idea that when his Stranger left him that night in 1389 after their first meeting, the woman who came up to him, laid a hand on his shoulder and said, “Good luck, friend,” was Death incarnate.
Hob doesn’t know that he is one of few things in this world that has been Touched by Death and lived. Had he known this, he might not have been as confused as he is when his body slams into the floor of a dim, candle-lit cellar and he finds himself surrounded by hooded figures and a gold circle on the floor. That is all he manages to perceive before everything goes blurry and consciousness slips away from him again.
Here in the Darkness.
*
Roderick Burgess' spell does not summon Death, but someone who has been touched by Death. Hob Gadling ends up in his cellar instead of Dream.

Summary
“Family can be difficult, but we will always find our way back to the important people in our lives.” Zeus pats the spot next to him and Poseidon sits heavily. “Fate is peculiar like that, but sometimes it needs a little push.”
“I guess so.”
Poseidon seems downcast, his eyes no longer staring deep into his soul, instead down at the concrete, while his fingers fiddle with the loose strands of his backpack.
There’s something off about his brother. Zeus isn’t sure how he didn’t notice before. He’s missing his charisma as well as other important characteristics from his personality. And, well, he could blame it on his brother trying—and utterly, completely failing (because Zeus will never admit that Poseidon is better than him at something)—to cheer him up.
But the most concerning thing of all is the lack of godly aura surrounding him.
