Summary
Warnings: Lengthiness. Possible spoilers for Feet of Clay and The Truth.
Summary: If Vetinari has "no vice that anyone could discover" (Guards! Guards!), at least it could be deduced from the nature of the "cerebral" pleasures (Making Money) he likes to indulge in (not to mention from the nature of his 24/8 preoccupations) that he has a decided interest in control and power relationships. Canon leaves it at that (apart from his fondness for little dogs), but there are distinct ... possibilities in his relationship with his faithful clerk and secretary Rufus Drumknott. Even though they never so much as touch. (While I am all in favour of smut, I like to take a very old-fashioned view of these characters...;-) ) -

Summary
Kristoph Gavin's prison psychiatrist has seen everything, spending years working with the toughest of the tough, the irredeemably unhelpable behind the bars of one of America's worst prisons. Hardened and on the verge of apathy, he appreciates the change of pace when he is assigned the intelligent, well-spoken and cooperative former lawyer. But then things start to shift and Kristoph starts working his subtle charisma, and the prison, its staff and inmates, and the narrating doctor's lives are all about to be thrown into some serious upheaval.

Caring makes people weak.
As a writing exercise for me, Atlinmerrick and I came up with the ‘365 days of 221Bs’ challenge: I am going to write a 221B each day for a year (meaning 365 in total). Every 221B will be based on a prompt given by Atlin on the same day.

Summary
Summary: As though Dean Winchester’s life weren’t stressful, insane, and just downright weird enough (seeing as how, by being a Righteous Man who’s shed blood in Hell, he’s inadvertently kick-started a process by which enough of the Seals keeping Lucifer locked inside Hell might be broken to free the Devil, permitting the fallen angel to start the Apocalypse), the angelic Hosts of Heaven have proven to be so morally deficient that they apparently have no problem whatsoever with threatening to either throw him back into Hell or else harm his brother, Sam, so they can gain Dean’s cooperation with their plans. Having outwitted both angels and demons by the skin of his teeth, in defense of a girl named Anna Milton (who turned out to be an angel who’d deliberately stripped herself of her Grace in order to experience free will and life as a human, and is now an angel again, having successfully regained her Grace), he’s not exactly in the mood to deal with any of the angelic dicks. Unfortunately, Castiel, the angel who hauled him up out of Hell, didn’t get that particular memo, and seems determined to have a heart-to-heart . . .
