Summary
Fills to Valar-morekinks LJ prompts (rounds 1 through 4, two prompts in round 7 and four prompts from round 8). Different genres. Different pairings. Just fun!
Note: there are four chapters I deleted from LJ because I realized that they did not truly fill their respective prompt. Also, I added a new story to fill my own prompts from closed rounds (felt like it is no no to repost prompts from older rounds and fill your own prompts) - see http://archiveofourown.org/works/7112899/chapters/16157158
Complete.
Note: while this is a kink meme, non-smutty prompts and fills are also welcome.

“You want to run it.”
“No,” she says. “I’ll grift for you. You’ll run it for me — manage the civilians. We’ll see how well we suit one another before going in together in Nice. If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. No hard feelings, and you still have time to find someone else.”
Steve rereads the card, memorizing the name, number, date, and address on it.
“Okay. Los Angeles,” he says. “I’ll see you two weeks.”

Summary
Serena is a siren who has never left her sheltered life in the ocean among her people- then she is lured out of the water by a quick-talking half-elf with an interest in her powers. She falls in with the half-elf, Anthea, and her criminal crew, and they begin an adventure of mayhem, long cons, and grifts.
But when the country's most feared criminal mastermind, the Hunger, takes notice of them, things become more complicated. Threats of death and torture nip at their heels as they struggle to stay out of his hands, and to stick by their own- rather twisted- code.
As Serena and Anthea grow closer, they need to find a way to keep the Hunger at bay, away from them, their friends, and the potentially devastating power of a leashed siren.
