    Summary

    When John gets cast as the lead in the movie adaptation of Buck Cleven's debut novel, he takes it as a sign that his stagnant career is growing. Only the author, who seemed to like him enough to sponsor his casting, all of a sudden despises him.
    And why does Buck look so freaking familiar?

    Summary

    Once upon a time, high in the Alabaster Sierras, the city of Whitestone hosted a very special Renewal Festival, marking the first day of spring and a new year of growth to come.

    And Ambassador Syldor Vessar and Lord Frederick de Rolo came together to join their legacies with a partnership.

    A long, winding fairy tale about a prince, a rogue, and promises broken and kept.

    Summary

    The whales are there for only a few minutes, surfacing once more and then never coming back up as the light fades to an inky black night, nothing but the ship's lights creating a halo of visibility around them. Winter clouds above, there are no stars to differentiate the sky from the sea. It's a cold, unsettling feeling, and John’s hairs are rising on the back of his neck, Alice rolling over waves he can’t even see. A speck of life dropped off the end of the world.

    “Entering the crab grounds now, boys. Everybody on deck to load those pots and drop ‘em down.”

    --
    An au posed by the simple question: What if you took the enduring love of John and Gale and combined it with the hit 2005 show Deadliest Catch.

    Summary

    “If you stay,” John says, almost to himself, “what’d be the difference this time?”

    His thumb caresses Gale’s cheek, the callus on it catches on the stubble Gale hasn't bothered to shave in days. Gale keeps his breathing steady, letting his decision solidify inside him.

    “What you asked for back then,” Gale says, “I’d give you now.”

    /

    After the war, Gale and John build a life together.

    Summary

    When Pete Mitchell is ten years old, he sets his mind, there and then, that he’s going to be the best goddamn pilot the Navy’s ever seen, and nothing and no one is going to keep him out of the air.

    When Tom Kazansky is twenty-seven, their paths collide, and it makes the world shift beneath his feet. Pete "Maverick" Mitchell is not a part of his Twenty Year Plan, but Tom can’t seem to shake him. He stops trying, after a while. It’s the best— and worst— thing that’s ever happened to him.
