Summary
Castle Finster possess its own unique folklore: a range of fairy tales and legends that add to its charm. Too bad no one's particularly interested in them. What is it that everyone wants to talk about? The Monster. Enter Renate to remind the townsfolk of the rich, narrative history they're allowing to disappear. All the audience she gets is Anja and Lukas. For now, that's enough. Songfic to Celtic Thunder's "Midnight Well."

Summary
"We stay here, we'll lose, and I guess...I think it's time we started winning."
Dirk Valentine suggest to Frances Humber that they run away and never look back. She accepts, knowing that if they don't, they'll be stuck in this cycle of fear and emptiness forever. She doesn't know how they'll pull it off or if they'll even manage it; she just knows that she needs to believe things will work because she can't handle that cycle of fear much longer.

Summary
Nancy isn't often uncomfortable, but when she is, it gets her mind going almost as much as a good puzzle.
Sonny, sensing her discomfort, reached over and took her hand as they sat back down, gave it a gentle squeeze, and whispered, “relax, you’re doing just fine.” Nancy didn’t answer, but the thought couldn’t help passing through her mind that she wanted to sneak quietly out the door and wait in the narthex where some volunteers were setting up coffee and snacks for after the service. The problem was she didn’t really understand her own discomfort. She had walked head held high into a card club run by a man who stored stolen goods for two Venetian crime bosses and acted like she belonged there, for goodness sake. Why on Earth was she so uncomfortable in a relatively casual and normal setting?
Perhaps because it's been so long since she's been in a casual setting that she's forgotten how to relax, or perhaps because this particular setting makes her face a few things about herself. As she and Sonny listen to that Sunday's sermon, she thinks of how she's evolved from her earliest cases to her latest ones, of how her mother's death changed her, and of her relationship with Sonny Joon.

Summary
Once upon a time, he dreamed that he'd be a famous actor. Once upon a time, he'd have said that the very idea of his trying to kill a fellow actor and the teenage detective sent to save him would be ludicrous. Once upon a time, he'd thought of something other than revenge.
Now, here he was, years later, looking back on those few weeks at World Wide Broadcasting Studios and planning revenge again. Apparently, old habits did die hard.
He's been stalking her ever since he was released from prison. He knows about every case, every country and city she's visited since he last saw her. And his revenge is taking shape. As he prepares for the events to take place on Dread Isle, he reflects back on those days in New York, the actions that led to them, the months of betrayal, and the girl who ruined it all. And as he does, he can't help but sing.
"Every breath you take, every move you make, every bond you break, every step you take, I'll be watching you..."

Summary
Inspired by a prompt on Tumblr about the poem in the Chinese room. Elizabeth Valdez/Lizzie Applegate makes a tapestry telling Diego how to find his treasure once he's returned to her. Once she's finished, she continues to lead her double life just as he leads his, until they're ready to settle down as a family, even though there's the chance that day won't come. She sits at the window, waits for her beloved to come home, and reflects on the puzzle she's arranged for him.
Decades later, Abby and Louis contemplate the hidden meaning behind the poem, wondering the same thing for entirely different reasons. Meanwhile, Nancy gets closer to the gold, racing against someone who knows of her sleuthing capabilities.
This was originally posted on fanfiction.net under my username on that website and I'm now finally moving all my fics for the HerInteractive games over here.

Summary
“There are things we can do, Egon, to help you sleep better, all right?” Peter said pointedly, trying to catch the physicist's eyes. “We can work on your sleep hygiene, we can work on relaxation techniques, we can talk about the things that are bothering you, and if you're still not sleeping after that, I know of some medications that might help you.” He paused, then added more sternly, “but dude, you've got to tell me when you're having problems.”
In which Egon has bother sleeping. Peter does his psychologist thing.

Summary
As tacked up on the wall beside the large common bedroom door where it could be readily found and equally-readily updated with new additions - a list of rules to keep the guys in line. At least, in theory. When they remember. Sometimes. Kinda.
