In Practice by greywash for songlin

Summary
Sherlock's time is limited, so he tends to focus on acquiring the knowledge he finds most necessary in the quickest and most convenient way possible—which, yes, frequently means that he tends towards the theoretical over the practical, especially when the theory is widely explored, frequently elaborated, and easily accessible.
"So you mean," John says, a little thickly, "you've watched a lot of porn," and Irene drops down onto her stomach on the floor with her hair falling around her face and laughs and laughs and laughs.
Unbeta'ed and un-Britpicked; briefly audienced by Roane to ensure that it was actually written in English but that's it. To be honest, this is a writing exercise gone massively out of control. Read at your own risk and OMG, no, really, I'm so sorry. /o\

Summary
Dwarves do not marry or love outside their race. It would have been nice, if they could. It would have saved Bilbo Baggins' life, if they could. They cannot though, and will not. He will die of his broken heart, but he is mortal so it would have happened anyway. It's painful, it's disheartening, but it is reality. So Bilbo leaves Erebor for Mirkwood, to keep the secrets of his people safe and to spare the family of his heart the sight of his Fading.
Then the true nature of his Ring is found out.
Bilbo will destroy this evil before the Fading takes him. He can live until then, complete this task to protect the people he loves.

Summary
Pru wakes up and the world's gone cockeyed. She's in the wrong country, her old team is still alive, she's missing scars she had when she fell asleep—everything's wrong. That's okay, though. She knows how to fix it—she just has to find Red.
Unfortunately, when she does, he's not quite the Red Robin she remembers. But that's okay, too.
She can still fix it.
(Pru trolls reboot!Tim for all he's worth.)

Bookmarker's Notes
The Tempest of Team RedBird
1/ out of her sphere
Something is seriously wrong with the world. Pru woke up this morning in a strange bed with a dead man. She still has a full head of hair and she's apparently in Prague on a job she remembers completing years ago. Still, when she checks her phone, it claims the year's 2011 and the date's what it should be. So at least she knows it's not time travel.
Probably.
(I.e., the fic where Pru wakes up in the new 52 and can’t find her bird.)
2/ a spirit of persuasion, only
Again with Oracle's vague references to things being different from what she's used to. Not exactly the omniscient mouthpiece of a god that the name implies, then (but hey, he's not a bird or a restaurant chain, so it's not like Tim can judge). "The intel you keep offering me isn't very useful if it's all out of date."
"It's not out of date! Probably. I mean—it's complicated. Look, are you going after Wonder Girl or not? Because word on the street is you're on a deadline if you want her in one piece."
3/ "Traditionally," Pru says slowly, "Oracle does run her own team."
4/ "I don't know," Lonnie says, nervously fingering the Bat pinned to his chest. "Batman really doesn't like anyone horning in on his territory."
"Trust me, Batman has way bigger things to worry about right now," Pru tells him. "Besides, you're Oracle's people, and that makes you pretty much the Care Bear Cousins of the Batfamily. Different shape, but totally able to join in on major team-ups and ass-kickings when necessary."
(The further adventures of Pru, assassin-turned-Oracle, and her merry band of misfits as they spy on spies, save the day, get genre-savvy on villains, and troll Robins II and III.)
5/ "Hey, wait a sec. Does this have anything to do with that subnet surveillance network you had me set up for you a couple of months back?" Lonnie wants to know. "O, I swear she said that was just a suburbs thing."
"No worries," Oracle reassures him. "Spoiler, is this actually going anywhere?"
Stephanie gulps, forces herself to answer as she writes the final name on the list. "Yeah."
There's an outcry from Flying Fox when Stephanie steps back so everyone can see. "Bruce Wayne?! He's not in on this, trust me."
"That's who I saw," Stephanie grits out.
(Pru-as-Oracle and her band of merry men friends tackle the events of Batman Eternal. Team-ups and snark abound!)
Basically, the whole New 52 rewrite of reality somehow completely missed Pru on the inside, and she decides to do something about it, doesn't matter that she doesn't really get what "it" is.

The Roads Never Lead Where They're Supposed to Go by eleveninches
OH. MY. GOD. Read it again. Rodney's like a peon in the labs. SHEPPARD IS A BOTANIST.
*********
"Can I ask you a personal question?" he asked Zelenka later that night, when they were the only two left in the lab. Everyone else had already gone to bed, because they were quitters. Only Rodney and Zelenka had the stamina to stay up for days at a time, never leaving the labs.
Zelenka's face twitched. "Yes, I suppose. What is it?"
He let out a deep breath through his nose. "Hypothetically speaking, how do you know if a gay guy hits on you?"
"Who else here is gay besides you and Dr Sheppard?" Zelenka asked.
Rodney scowled and crossed his arms over his chest. "I'm not gay."
Zelenka's forehead wrinkled. "I do not understand."
"You know what, forget I said anything," Rodney said.
***********
Sumner took one look at his bloody head doctor, his bruised civilians, and his city's obviously secret laboratory, and he bellowed, "Someone needs to tell me what's going on here. Now."
Ford started, "Sir, Dr Beckett pulled a gun--" as Sheppard began, "Godzilla--" and Rodney said, "Somehow Carson had the great idea of turning everyone into prehistoric lizard killing machines," and Stackhouse finished off with, "Sir, have you ever seen Jurassic Park?"
Dr Weir held up a hand. "One at a time, please."
"Beckett created a retrovirus to turn everyone in the city into dinosaurs," Sheppard said. He sounded apologetic. "His plan was to set it off today and flee in a jumper."
Weir looked like this explanation physically hurt her. "I see."
"Dinosaurs?" Sumner asked flatly. He glowered at Carson. "You were going to turn the entire human race into dinosaurs, but you can't figure out how to give everyone the ATA gene?"
"I'm not a miracle worker, Colonel," Carson said.
*************
"I can't believe McKay went gay for you," Grodin said.
"I should be getting my free toaster in the mail any day now," Sheppard said.

Carmilla looks down at her shoes. She prepared herself for either answer but she still feels like someone sucker punched her, the air leaving her lungs. “Are you happy?” She asks, looking up again.
Laura looks at her for a long second before answering. “I am.”
Carmilla nods. “Good. I’m glad.”
“Are you?” Laura asks tentatively.
“As much as I can be.”

“Saturday. Yeah, that’s good,” Steve says, and actually scuffs his shoe at the ground. Like a ridiculous shy superhero damsel. “Say eight? I live-“
“Yeah, big building with the A on it,” Bucky says, and can’t help a big stupid grin. Steve stares at him, looking a little dazed, and after their whole conversation it’s only now that Bucky’s brain catches up and realises Steve finds him quite attractive. So. Win for Bucky.
“Let me get your number,” Steve says finally, after they’ve stared stupidly at each other for about three hours, taking out his phone.
So they exchange numbers, and then Steve says he should go, and Bucky agrees, and they kind of stare at each other for a bit more, then Steve actually does go, but not before taking Bucky’s hand and squeezing it warmly in a way that makes Bucky want to shiver all over. Then Steve is gone, and Bucky is standing alone in the alley, grinning to himself.
Right up until the moment he remembers that Steve thinks Bucky is an escort he’s just hired.
Well fuck.

Summary
Her godfather is dead. So is Tom Riddle, which appears to be the only thing anyone else cares about. Oh, and getting ahold of her, her money, and her titles. Fuck that noise. Ianthe learned how to Maraud from the best, and she doesn't intend to take this lying down.
She intends to change a single moment in time - and change the life of her godfather, herself, and the whole of Magical Britain. That the price for that change is all that she is, including her life? There's always a price.
Merlin showing up and telling her that the price of her actions isn't her death? Not part of her calculations. Changing the past is surprisingly easy. Living it might just be harder. Especially when the lives she changed to save the future collide with the one she now lives, thirty years in the past.

Bookmarker's Notes
"I don't know what to do with you,” Stiles says, “You're both, you know, the guy who tried to kill Lydia and the guy who put me on his Costco membership."
Derek breathes, tries not to think too hard about anything. “It was a spell,” he says, "It wasn't real."
"You think I don't know that?" Stiles says, "Fuck, I still have to finish high school."She says, "You know him. You know he'll wait forever."
"He's waiting for someone that doesn't exist."
Erica says, "No, dumbass, he's waiting for you."
Same thing.It almost doesn't matter if Derek thinks something's wrong too. He knows that once Stiles gets an idea in his head, he's going to run with it until he runs out of road. Derek can tell already that Stiles' mind is made up, so either Derek goes with him or Stiles goes it alone and Derek can't let that happen.
"You lectured me all the time about putting my shit away, but I was always the one who hung up your jacket so you'd find it in the morning. I bet you can never remember where you left it anymore." Stiles chucks the bottle into the bin and throws his hands up. Derek can see his leather jacket where he threw it over a chair last night. He'd spent 10 minutes looking for it yesterday before finding it in the backseat of the Camaro.
"Yeah, oh," Stiles says, mocking, but he's smiling. "You are such a fucking dumbass, but I have a wealth of compelling evidence that you and me could be really good together. Wanna give it a shot?"
Derek is getting really sick of looking for his keys, his jacket. He's getting really sick of not finding Stiles where he's supposed to be, either.
Derek says, “Sure.” -
