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.]

Summary
It's really great that Roy and Trent cleaned up whatever bad blood was between them, because Ted is thrilled to have Trent around the Dogtrack. He's so happy to see how well Trent is getting along with Keeley and Rebecca. And the whole team. And even Roy. And Beard, of course. It's great. There ain't a single reason for Ted to not be over the moon about how well everyone's getting along with Trent.
Because it'd be real odd if Ted wasn't over the goddamn moon about it, right?

Summary
When the Enterprise drops Bones off for a medical conference on historic space station Otatha, they don’t expect to be back for him before the end of the week. But instead of the exciting conference adventure Bones was expecting, he finds himself thrown headfirst into a historical mystery centred around a drowned woman whose ghost just won’t leave him alone. Jim and Spock are forced to return early to check on their CMO. Is Bones truly experiencing a deep space haunting, or is it all in his head? Even he isn’t entirely sure.
It was something out of the stories of his childhood. The tales told back home when he had been a little boy. Countless tales of hauntings, of restless spirits, women in white, all of this came flooding back to him now as he stared down a very real apparition. She was dressed in silvery pearl, her white hair cut at a length that blended into the shoulders of her dress. Her skin, illuminated under the glow from her clothes and hair, was a pale blue. An Andorian ghost, slowly making her way toward him from the end of the hall.
