Summary
Inspired by the wonderful film "An Education", where Athelstan is the innocent young thing studying hard at school and Ragnar is the man nearly twice his age who comes through his life like a hurricane.
Except my version will be decidedly less angsty and more smutty, I do believe.
*A note on the warning: Athelstan is 17, but I thought I'd mark it to be safe. -

Summary
The one where Erik is a belligerent southern Jewish moonshine-runner with a fast truck and scarred knuckles from barroom brawling and Charles is a hippie and a college drop out who is drifting across the country looking for other Mutants. They met when Charles's car breaks down on a back road.
The pickup truck was painted a deep shade of purple, and a cloud of red dust ran out behind it like a cape. Sitting on the bumper of his broken-down Rambler Cross Country, Charles saw it coming from a long way off.
He stood up and waved his arms, and the truck pulled over to the side of the road opposite of him. Charles tried to get a look at the person behind the wheel, but he was blinded temporarily by a flash of sunlight reflecting off the shining chrome of the truck’s forked hood ornament.

Summary
It is spring of 1968. Enjolras is a leader of an activist organization against the Vietnam War, in New York. Bahorel leaves Liverpool to seek for a more interesting life. Musichetta leaves Greece which is under a juda to study in a free country. Courfeyrac, Prouvaire and Feuilly take part in the events of May in Paris, and then go to New York to make their rock band known.
It is the time of love, the time of music, the time of revolution, of racing hearts and rugged breathing, of summers and blue eyes, of damp sheets and tangled legs. It is the time of peace and the time of freedom.It will give its turn to the time of numbness, of pain and of war. The universe will continue spinning around them, no matter how fuckin' still they feel, the sun will still shine, no matter how dark their lives are. They'll think that nothing's gonna change their world.
But in the end, they'll follow the sun.
Across the Universe/Beatles AU.

Summary
Endeavour Morse closed his eyes and massaged his temples – the clock was ticking round to midnight, and he was still in the office trying to finish up the paperwork that Sergeant Jakes had dumped on his office literally an hour before clocking out time and told him to have it finished by tomorrow morning.
Endeavour is annoyed when Jakes leaves him to sort through paperwork when everybody else goes out for drinks, but does Jakes have another motive other than to spite him.

Summary
He starts playing with a thread of his t-shirt. “Hey Jude,” he hears himself muttering, without really understanding why, “don’t make it bad.” He pulls the thread and rips it apart, unconsciously biting his lower lip. “Take a sad song, and make it better…”
One moment Grantaire is afraid.
And on the next moment Grantaire isn’t.
“La barricade ferme la rue mais ouvre la voie!”
Enjolras-Grantaire one-shot set during the May 68 riots.
