Public Enemies Fiction Archive
(Slash, Het, & Gen)
This page will be for all my Public Enemies fiction (slash, het, and gen). I’ve only been writing in this fandom since July of 2009 when the movie debuted, and it already needs its own page! :)
Links from 2010 on will lead to this page. Links before that will lead to the
old page (Potpourri) with a note leading people here.
