Summary
Hayden Pike's mother left when he was seven. She didn't come back. This, really, was not important, because Hayden built a family and a life and was happy - until it was important, when Laura Newfield (formerly Pike) reached out with a letter and an address. For Hayden, the question was whether whatever his mom had to say to him after all this time could tell him something about the parts of himself that he didn't quite understand and had never wanted to understand. How this ended up with him and Ilya Rozanov on the road to find these answers together, he wasn't entirely sure.
or - Hayden goes on an odyssey of exploring his relationship with his mother, with Ilya as his guide.

Summary
In the whirlwind of his addiction, Jesper made awful, terrible, no-good choices. He lied, and stole, and hurt the people around him. But now years into his recovery, he's made amends where he can and with the support of his friends, his support group, his sponsor and his therapist, he's doing far better than he ever thought he could.
Five years ago, Wylan was someone he hurt. Someone he knew deserved to be treated better but never was, and someone who had been on Jesper's list to make amends with since the beginning. So why did Wylan have to make it so damn difficult?
Essentially a past lovers to enemies to enemies with benefits to lovers again fic, if that makes any sense at all.

Summary
After disappearing for months with no word to his family, a grieving Lambert shows up for Christmas at the old man's house. Geralt is wrapped up in his own concerns, absorbed by his precious new child, his on and off again love affair, and reconciling with his best friend who will no longer speak to him. Lambert confides in him about Aiden, but when Geralt refuses to assist him in his vengeance, Lambert is left full of rage and grief with no outlet. Until he makes a secret arrangement with someone else in a similar position.
What do you do when you've lost everything? You take what isn't yours.
oOo
Lambert thinks of screaming drunk Christmases, hiding under the table as the sound of fist on flesh seeped bloody through the carols on the radio. He thinks of Fresno, palm trees and heat and gas station ice cream staining Aiden’s mouth.Jaskier tilts the wine glass invitingly. His lips are red as blood, as grief.
Fuck it. Fuck everything. He has nothing left. Why shouldn't he take this?

Summary
Doctor McCoy sure as hell doesn’t compromise care, confidentiality, or his goddamn conscience for anyone. He has no problem with extracting a mind-controlling slug from Uhura's sinuses, performing a blood transfusion between a human and a sentient puddle, or administering therapy to a crew-wide hallucination of a god.
But catching feelings for Spock?
Now that’s just irresponsible.
And ultimately, it's all Jim’s fault.

Summary
Benji retires, Ethan struggles.
Alternately:
[“Why didn't you tell me?” Ethan asked at last.
A thousand reasons, a thousand reasons that all come back to one. For so many years he hadn’t been able to disappoint Ethan, and now— now he couldn’t seem to stop.
Ethan started to pace. Something uneasy stirred in Benji’s gut. Ethan was never too much, never too agitated or angry or frustrated. It was like he had been ground down by the job into the model of a man: an infinitely patient and charming man whose mask never cracked.
It was cracking now.]
