Title: Good Advice (AO3)
Rating: G
Characters: Helena "H. G." Wells, Jimmy Palmer, Breena Slater
Prompt: intoabar: Helena Wells walks into a bar and meets... Jimmy Palmer!
Summary: Helena is worried about Artie; she meets a guy who turns out to be a good listener.
Author's Notes: This is set during the first half of season 4 of Warehouse 13 and after season 9 of NCIS. Contains some spoilers. The entire fic is from H. G.'s perspective, so canon knowledge of NCIS is not necessary. Includes Jimmy's relationship with Breena and H. G.'s with Myka, but neither is the focus of the fic.


Helena walked down the street with a sigh. Sometimes artifact hunting was a chore, a drag, a pain. No wonder the Warehouse agents usually did their hunting only when there were sightings; with no clues to go on, no one apparently using the artifact to do strange things, there was nothing to do but search out obscure mentions from minor writings, and comb the world.

It wasn’t as though she was in a hurry at the moment, though. In fact, she rather had a feeling that she shouldn’t hurry, should take as long as she could manage to find this particular dagger. True, Artie had asked her particularly, and she felt a peculiar loyalty to the crotchety, brilliant man who had so recently completely turned around in her opinion of her. But there was something odd about the request, and she wanted to turn it around in her mind some more.( Read more... )

Title: Little Black Jacket
Rating: G
Characters: Olivia Dunham, Walter Bishop, Astrid Farnsworth, Nina Sharp, Alternate Nina Sharp, Peter Bishop
Summary: A fairy tale retelling, Fringe-style.
Author's Notes: I have no idea where this came from, but it insisted on existing. So, er, enjoy? Sort of spoilery for S4 up to 4x14 "The End of All Things."

Once upon a time there lived on a certain campus a little FBI agent, the prettiest creature who was ever seen. Walter was excessively fond of her; and Nina doted on her still more. This good woman had a little black rain jacket made for her. It suited the FBI agent so extremely well that everybody called her Little Black Jacket. But her name was Olivia Dunham.( Read more... )

Title: Traveling to Las Vegas
Rating: PG-13 for guns
Characters: Spencer Reid, OCs
Prompt: aldersprig requested Reid in one of my ‘verses!
Summary: Reid tries to get to his mom after the apocalypse.
Author's Notes: Set in my original world of the Wasteland. Of course, in the Wasteland, his name wouldn't be Spencer Reid, because they don't speak English. But close enough!


Spencer Reid unrolled himself from his sleeping bag and stared up at the sky. It hadn’t changed. Still gray, from horizon to horizon.

But that was a good thing, because if the clouds had moved, that would mean wind, and wind would mean pathogens from the cities he’d left behind. Being able to calculate all the possible trajectories of the genetically engineered viruses didn’t help his anxiety.

But Vegas would be safe. Nothing could take root there. Once he crossed the mountains, there should be nothing windborne following him. It wasn’t his first or even his second reason for aiming for Las Vegas—those would be his mother and the Hoover dam, respectively—but it was still pretty high on the list.( Read more... )
