  1. Summary

    Jack Harkness is a man with a long, storied past. Only a fraction of it is 'known', but so much more of it has shaped him. These are the stories that have not been told, the impacts seen but kept hidden.

    Mycroft regularly calls a sex hotline and talks to the same guy, and likes to pretend its Greg. Even though the guy sounds like Lestrade, there's no way Lestrade would ever have a side job like this, right? (Spoiler - He totally does)

    Summary

    Their sort of priest, the socially progressive sort, followed the rules because the structure felt right. Because it gave rhythm and melody to a chaotic world.

Serpent Commander Vorsaile Heuloix insisted tol Scaeva was not guilty of any crimes he had been charged with for his arrest, but the public has yet to prove that!

    Summary

    “Oi, boys. No passing that archway till you pay tax!” Jessie exclaimed.

    Both men looked at her confused until the cold knife of terror plunged into Nero’s gut. He knew exactly what she was talking about, watching others all night.

    A sprig of mistletoe hung on the archway.

    Nero and Cid find themselves stuck in a difficult situation.
