Summary
John and Sherlock are the elite of the elite KGB undercover units in 1980's Washington DC. Their cover: gay British couple. Their reality:highly skilled Soviet spies sworn to topple capitalism from within. Of course, their cover is completely separate from their professional life. They have to live with each other...for the Cause. They're definitely, absolutely, positively nothing more than colleagues. But the FBI agent moving in across the street and the increasingly impossible missions assigned to them by Moscow make alliances murkier than ever before. Who's side is everyone on and for goodness sake how does Ronald Reagan have a 52% approval rating right after a major international crisis? Enter: Feminism.Cold War Politics.Gay and Civil Rights Movements.

Summary
"NEVER GROW UP AND NEVER GROW OLD AND NEVER GIVE IN, JUST THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS AND FLY, DAMMIT," was our credo. We lived free and we partied hard under Peter's reign, we ran through the forests and never looked back and never, never, NEVER saw Peter grow up. He was forever young, he could fly, he could still grin like a child as a seventeen-year old. We lived with him in Neverland, but we also lived with our parents in Kings Landing, Oregon. I was just trying to find the space in between. My name is Wendy Darling, and this isn't Peter's story. This is mine.

Summary
Louis has been his best friend since they were in diapers, having grown up on the same block, and Niall reckons that there will always be a piece of him that loves the older boy. And then there's Harry. Harry, who is the youngest of their group and the newest addition to it. He’s newly sixteen, and more than a bit gifted, and they met when Harry was put in their class in year six. Harry belongs to Louis, and Louis, to Harry, and they’re sort of sickening to be around, at times, but the blond knows that he wouldn’t have them any other way. Harry and Louis are one another’s, but they’re also his.
A Niam fic, based on Teenage Dirtbag, but with a strong emphasis on Nourry friendship. I don't know if this has already been done or not, but if it has, here's hoping I've got a different enough premise!

Summary
They had both been golden, Louis knows. They’d been stalked in awe; the prettiest post-punks London had to offer. Coils of smoke that nobody could catch. Nobody’s property to cage and label. Whenever Louis spirals down, he wonders what Bowie had desired from Zayn that he couldn’t give, too; he would of given anything. His signature for his soul and fifteen minutes of fame. His signature for his soul and his rightful place tucked close to Zayn’s side. He feels like half a boy without him and no matter what makeup has framed them, his blue eyes have been dulled since their last kiss good bye.

Summary
James and Juliet take a road trip in the 80’s, which results in some unplanned babytimes. AU that’s a decidingly different version of the Sideways world in that there are obvious throwbacks for Reasons (the intention being that even without an awakening in ~that way~ they would still have a connection and exist to find each other.)

Summary
Although Michael was the one who went to clubs and had been known to march in parades, Jack was the one who initiated the actual flirting, delighted at the opportunity to try something new. He was also the one who roped Peter into it. Quite possibly Peter would have lived out his entire life in middle-of-the-road, no-experiments heterosexuality, had not Jack been there to convince him otherwise.
