I wrote too much shit to put in one post II
Here's part two of my story index (updated Apr 1, 2012, new stuff marked with NEW). The ones with the little * are the ones I'm fond of myself. Which... doesn't necessarily mean they're good. *coughs*
Fic Index Part 1
Hewligan crossovers
Naga AU (Brendan/Emmett):
(cross-posted to the AO³)
* Sliding Scales - BvP, Emmett/Betty, first in the Naga!Emmett-verse: What Emmett misses when he's with Betty is kissing. It's one of the few things about humans he actually likes.
Mermaids are Dead Anyway - BvP/Thoughtcrimes, second in the Naga!Emmett-verse: Emmett is something out of a fairy tale himself; he's Naga, which is basically a mermaid with a snake bottom instead of the fish parts. And like the little mermaid, he has left everything behind for someone who'll never understand what a sacrifice it has been.
For Now at Least - BvP/Thoughtcrimes, third in the Naga!Emmett-verse: Emmett doesn't want to be loved because he's some kind of exotic being, no matter how much he wants to just take Brendan and hold him and never let him go, and it has to show on his face.
~~~
* Anniversary to Zoo (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: Emmett would probably never know why Brendan had thought spending their six months anniversary in the Bronx Zoo was a good idea.
Cartoon Crazy - Brendan/Emmett: It had seemed like such a good idea at the time.
* Elkins, West Virginia (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: Brendan doesn't care if the Potomac Highlands offer a lot of nature, or if the Hungary Farm Winery ("Best melomel in the world!") makes an interesting place for a visit. He misses Freya. He misses New York. The snakes at the Reserve lost their novelty value some time around day three, and the guy he's supposed to keep an eye on is an ass.
* Games (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett, kink: The small snake is crawling its way up Brendan's thigh, body wound tightly around his naked flesh.
Mechanics of a Relationship (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: On good days, Freya didn't tap into Emmett's thoughts anymore, because he gleefully projected everything she wanted to know, and then some.
Once Bitten - Brendan/Emmett: "My antivenom is experimental at best, not nearly ready to be administered to a human being." It would be irresponsible, as much as he wanted to help her. He knew how it felt to lose someone to a snakebite. "I'm sorry, Miss McAllister, but I really can't help you there."

Oversized - Brendan/Emmett: "I can't help but notice that for an agency that's supposed to be focussing on encryption methods, your job is positively bizarre."
* Snake Eyes (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: Emmett blinked at him, open-mouthed, then he shook his head. "All right, you know what? This jealousy thing you've got going on? It's not cute."
Something Will Happen to You... - Brendan/Emmett: "Why, Emmett, did you pick up a stalker?"
* Three Ways Brendan And Emmett Didn't Meet & One Way They Did (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: They didn't meet in a flower shop, or the supermarket, or the hospital. But they could have.
Triangle (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett, Betty POV: She didn't know if he had a name. In her mind, she called him Almost Snake. He called her Betty.
Two Sets of Luck (cross-posted to the AO³) - Brendan/Emmett: There were days when he really hated his job, Brendan thought morosely as he half-trudged, half-skidded through the mud.

Merlin (BBC)
Bad Case Of - Merlin/Arthur pre-slash(y): It really was a terrible, terrible affliction that Merlin was suffering from. Very sad.
* Destiny Revisited (cross-posted to the AO³) - SGA/Merlin crossover (John/Rodney, Merlin/Arthur): This time, Merlin is the one saying words like "idiot" and "moron," and Arthur has the stupid ears.
Download Destiny Revisited as podfic
* Four Ways Arthur Fails at Courting Merlin, and One Way He Doesn't (cross-posted to the AO³) - Merlin/Arthur: Thing is, Arthur hasn't the faintest idea how one would go about courting a sorcerer.
Read Four Ways… in Russian
Tangible - Merlin/Arthur pre-slash: These days, the desire to keep the Prince safe was anything but nebulous.
* That Which Binds (cross-posted to the AO³) - Merlin/Arthur pre-slash, character death: The night Morgana bears Arthur a son, an heir he was never supposed to have, Merlin breaks his self-imposed solitude and visits the Dragon for a chat.
* The Prince's Quest (cross-posted to the AO³) - Merlin/Arthur, fairy-tale AU, told as a beautiful work of art by berlinghoff79: Prince Arthur finds his life lacking, so he goes on a Quest to find the greatest prize of all.
* The Sword in the Stone (cross-posted to the AO³) - AU, Merlin/Arthur: Arthur had stolen away from the tournament to see what all the fuss was about, and because if he had to bang the dents out of Kay's helmet one more time, he couldn't be held accountable for his actions.
* Ulfyn's Gift (cross-posted to the AO³) - Merlin/Arthur established relationship, outsider POV: "What did you do?" the boy breathed, but before Ulfyn could even begin to try and stammer out an answer, the boy's eyes had drifted shut again.

Sherlock Holmes (various 'verses)
*A Brief History of Johns (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, gen: Sherlock buries John Six in the bed of Johns at the back of the garden, between the tulips and the daffodils.

* Quite Essential + Bonus Ficlet (cross-posted to the AO³) - Granada 'verse, Holmes/Watson preslash and movie 'verse, Holmes/Watson: Sherlock Holmes needs no one in the world but Sherlock Holmes. Watson's presence in his life is welcome, an asset even, but it isn't needed.
Share & Share Alike - BBC 'verse, Watson/Mary, Holmes/Watson: Mary Watson loves her husband. So does Sherlock Holmes. John loves them both. The solution seems obvious.
*Some of Your Time (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, AU, Holmes/Watson: Somewhere between the Tesco Metro and Baker Street, John has lost an entire hour.

*The Issue of Cuddling (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, asexual!Holmes/Watson: The inherent problem is, of course, that Sherlock is the world's only consulting detective. He doesn't ask for information; he deduces it. That John keeps behaving in unexpected ways is irksome. That Sherlock still hasn't been able to determine whether or not John wants a physical relationship beyond cuddling on the sofa is… annoying. Vastly so.

The ProPosition (cross-posted to the AO³) - movie 'verse, Holmes/Watson: Holmes helps Watson relax.
* The Queen's Guard (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse fusion with Neil Gaiman's Study in Emerald, Gen: In the caves of Afghanistan, John died once already. But in a world ruled by creatures more terrible than divine, death isn't always permanent, and when a half-human stranger stumbles into his life, John has to decide what he hates more: the Royal bloodline, or that peculiar heart which won't let him die...
* The Sky for the Reaching (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, asexual!Holmes/sexual!Watson, sequel to Traffic Lights: In which John isn't quite living in a war zone, Sherlock experiments, and Bill Murray (not the actor) wants to get laid. Features also: pins, sponges, the question of whether or not Sherlock Holmes likes to cuddle, nightmares, a case, and seventeen steps.
* The Story of How Mycroft Holmes Got Demoted and Was Actually Quite Pleased About It (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, implied Holmes/Watson, but it's really all about Mycroft: Dr. Watson is sick, Sherlock is a nuisance, and Mycroft intervenes.
* The World in My Pocket, the Sky in My Handkerchief (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, Holmes/Watson: The third time Sherlock gets himself kidnapped, John doesn't call the police.
* Traffic Lights for the Colour Blind (cross-posted to the AO³) - BBC 'verse, asexual!Holmes/sexual!Watson: In which it's not the war John is missing, Sherlock needs to find new ways to hang on to his flatmate, and Moriarty tries to get himself a pet of his own.
