Summary
'Agents Emily Prentiss and Spencer Reid are the latest victims in a long line of what authorities are only now admitting could be serial abductions ranging back over a decade. Dubbing the abductor 'The Ghost', the only thing authorities seem to be able to agree on is this: no victims have yet been recovered.'
For Aaron Hotchner, it was his worst fear come to life. Forced to work alongside Jason Gideon and the human members of the elite BAU, Aaron and what remained of his pack found themselves fighting against everything they'd ever stood for in order to bring their people home.
For the missing agents, it was life shattering. Trapped almost four thousand miles away and forced into betrayal by their captors, a desperate flight into a deadly blizzard made them realize how precarious their grip on survival truly was. But that didn't matter. There was no giving up.
It wasn't only their survival they were fighting for.

Summary
There were no last words. No more pleas, no more screaming. Just the sound of Stiles squeezing the trigger, the explosion of a second shot rocketing out of the revolver, and the hunters bursting through the open doorway just in time to see the bullet slam squarely into the center of Derek’s chest.

with bloody feet across the hallowed ground by owlpostagain
So far beyond excellent it's in a class of its own
Stiles determined to protect those he loves us the most vicious Stiles of all
Superb plotting, pacing, and slow reveal"You asshole,” Stiles whined, tilting his head further to the side as Derek made his way towards Stiles’ neck. “Years of sexual tension, and you decide the best time to kiss me is the night before we both have to pretend to hate each other for the foreseeable future. Who does that?” he groaned, and it’s only partially because of the sharp nip of Derek’s teeth against his throat.
“It barely –”
“Years,” Stiles insisted, “years, Derek. Shut up and come back here, I’m not done kissing you yet.”

Architecture of the Minotaur’s Heart by deathbanjo
Superb
Creepy
RomanticThere’s something alive in Dean’s cabin. He can feel it. Under the floorboards, beneath the stairs that shouldn’t be there, where it’s dark. It beats like a heart. It changes its face in the middle of the night. It feels like it’s reaching out to him, and he has no idea why.

Summary
This is really very much what it says on the tin. Fractured fairy tale, fantasy, AU, curses. Mycroft and Greg. I really don't think you need more, especially if you like animal-companion/spouse fairy tales: you know the sort? The Black Bull of Norway? Rose Red and Rose White and the Bear? Yeah.
One thing, for those who may not know. A she-fox is a vixen. A dog-fox is a male fox. When I use the term dog-fox, I am merely identifying the fox as a boy fox, not a dog/fox hybrid of some sort. So sue me--that's the terminology.

The Fox's Curse by Tammany
“What can you tell me about the curse,” he asked Anthea the next day, calling when he hoped Mycroft would be off to the Diogenes.
“Nothing,” she said, her voice tense and dangerous.
“Come on, Andy-panda…”
“I said, nothing.” There was intense meaning in every growl.
“Ah.” He sighed. “I was afraid of that, but… Look, when he’s…”
“Shut up, shut up, shut up,” she said. “Nothing. Tell me NOTHING. You tell me something and he might end up in Siberia with you having to chase after him to save his arse. Curses work like that, you muggins. Just shut up and do what you think feels right, and I’ll do the same, and we will both hope someone can lift it. All right?”
“All right.”
It wasn’t what he’d hoped for—but he’d at least learned that the curse had enough effect between darks of the moon for Anthea to know and be worried. Upset, even.
He pondered it for several more months—months marked by the tidy rhythm of three weeks waiting, one week suddenly and powerfully alive in a way Lestrade didn’t know how to explain. When the fox was there, his entire life seemed to glow. There were trips around London with Sal driving and quipping and teasing the fox, and the fox somehow contributing with yaps and pants and odd, carefully timed croons and yowls. There were hours working on documents and forms and sorting through paper trails. Sometimes the fox curled and napped in the guest chair. Other times he leapt up onto the desk and peered into Lestrade’s monitor, or cocked his head and tried to read print with such frustrated patience that Lestrade could not bear it, and broke down to read pages aloud. The fox would curl up on the desk for that, eyes pinned to Lestrade’s face and tail tucked over his own feet like an afghan against a draft.

Summary
It was a normal Friday night: Harry had charmed open the locked gates of Hyde Park and was carrying on an enjoyable argument with one of the ancient ashes there, a discussion that had been going on since it was a mere sapling.

Kazvl16all
* (1-6)
Skilled interweaving of Mystrade slow burn romance and casefic (murdered homeless and tampered casefiles)
Superb characterization and banter. Nicely detailed back stories skillfully revealed.
Slow build of Mystrade feels real and delicate, particularly how each man*sees* the other.
High handed Mycroft maneuvers Lestrade into babysitting detoxing Sherlock on cold empty island.
Authentically written Lestrade emotional and financial emptiness post divorce and basement flat renovation and Mycroft difficulty not talking himself out of risking his isolation.
Sherlock 's struggle to resist drug temptation sympathetically portrayed. M+S interactions find room for exchanges other than venomous.
Excellent Anthea (and David, Fatima, Len, Annie)
