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
He had wanted to protect his students from the world, but there was no way to protect them from each other, or themselves. With a soft sigh, he tossed her a cigarette. "Just this once," he said. Asuma himself was no saint, but then he had never pretended to be. Oneshot. Mild lime. [Asuma/Ino]

Summary
When Tom is thirteen years and six months old, his mom moves them from Margate, New Jersey to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
A story in which Tom Hansen grows up, screws up, falls in love (or so he thinks), falls out of love, falls down, and picks himself back up - not necessarily in that order, and not all at once. But he has Tommy Conlon with him throughout it all.

Summary
"You are an unusually eloquent twelve-year-old, Mr. Stilinski," Dr. Hayes informed him. It was their second meeting; the first had been with Stiles' dad, after a round-robin of meetings while they searched for the right psychiatrist. All the other ones had been men. Stiles hadn't wanted his psychiatrist to be a man. Stiles thought about it and reasoned that this was probably on account of his Mom recently dying of cancer.
Stiles shrugged. He looked at the picture of some idyllic beach that was hung in a frame on the wall behind Dr. Hayes' head. "I read a lot in the hospital. No electronics allowed."
Or, Stiles meets Laura and Derek Hale in a psychiatrist's office, striking up an unusual friendship.

Summary
It’s a long story about life on the tyrannical planet known as Alternia: how it can, at times, be full of puns on the physics of space and tasteless jokes told at another’s expense, and how it can, at other times, be full of broken limbs and ships rocketing away into the dark of space. They aren’t exactly optimists, but over the sweeps, they've found that being together has a tendency to fill it up with the former.
But the other thing about Alternia is that it doesn’t matter if you’re a peasant or a prince, it always has a tendency to screw you over. Or maybe that’s a love thing.

Meanwhile Dave is trying to be a better person than he used to be.

Too bad his developing friendship with the girl who frequents the hospital might be damaging his relationship with his girlfriend.
