Summary
I have a tendency to write bits of fics and obsess over them and never post them. So, I have a new idea. The rules are:
1) Written on my phone and posted immediately
2) Only what fits on one screen. Your mileage may vary.- Words:

Summary
Nonlinear, Jamie thinks. Trent explained that to him once, and it stuck with him, the idea that not everything just keeps on moving forward all the time. Sometimes people fall back into old patterns, sometimes things don't happen in the right order. Sometimes you think a story is going to tell you what happens next, and instead it turns around to look the other way. But the story isn't really moving backwards when it does that, Trent said. It's just using the backwards look to build a stronger foundation for moving ahead.
"That fight was fucked up, yeah?" Jamie leans closer to Roy, smells the beer in his bottle and on his breath, remembers what it felt like to gulp one down in that bar after months of going without. Remembers what Roy's knuckles felt like smashing into his nose after years of going without.

Summary
Whenever he says he's not feeling anything, that's when Dr. Sharon pulls out the fucking cards.
Roy can't fucking stand the fucking cards. They're plain white with plain black text, each displaying the name of a different emotion, and he's supposed to go through them and decide whether he's feeling each thing or not. It's fucking stupid, it makes him feel like a fucking toddler, and worst of all, it fucking works.

Ed Teach is an FTC investigator at the top of his game who has just been benched for going rogue (and playing too much FreeCell). When he meets Stede Bonnet, who's at the center of a Big Pharma deal that seems awfully sketchy, he thinks maybe he's found his (inside) man.

Summary
A character study of Jim on the Revenge between the end of Season One and midway through Impossible Birds (S2E1) because their offscreen arc is fucking fascinating.
So it goes like that. Stories on okay nights, and sometimes also on the nights that are too dark. Sometimes it’s not stories, but reminiscing about when times were better. Archie is fascinated by how things used to be on the Revenge, is constantly asking to hear more about Stede Bonnet and his People-Positive Management Style, to the point that that becomes one of the stories in rotation. Jim half-expects Izzy to skip those nights but he stays, whittles something or fiddles with a hank of rope. He never contributes, but he stays.
Jim looks around the circle and thinks it helps, probably. Helps to escape for a while, to remember. To grieve. To be human together for an hour or so, before they have to go back to being demons. It might help in the way a stone helps divert the flow of a river, but it’s all they have. It's got to be enough.
