Summary
In the spring of 1944, the 104th Medical Battalion of the United States Army is disbanded, and its men reassigned to various infantry companies in preparation for their invasion of occupied France. For First Lieutenant Novak, this is less than helpful, as he has so far met his platoon’s designated medic a grand total of twice, and has both times found Sergeant Winchester to be the optimum combination of reckless, arrogant, and downright insufferable so as to make cohesive platoon function near impossible. When the time comes to move out, however, Castiel has to reconcile himself to the fact that men are going to go down and trust that Dean Winchester may well be the only person who can put them back together again. WW2 ETO infantry AU.

Summary
"Don't worry, Batman. I won't let him get you." Her fingers slid into his hair, what little there still is of it- scratching to his ears, familiar, and he still doesn't know if he's dreaming, if this is some kind of cosmic joke, concocted by his sleep-addled mind.
"But you're dead," he whispered, and she laughed at that and was gone, the miniature universe shrivelling away with her.
A Spaceship ghost story.

Summary
Above her the Sphinx snarls, then throws back its head and roars again, but she can barely hear it through the pounding in her head, the sound muffled beneath the beating of her heart, loud, so loud, in her ears, frantic like a drum and she times each beat to the pulse of blood that drips between her fingers. Her vision clouds, dances, grows hazy as she hits the ground, her head dizzy, the air shifting about her, time tastes heavy in her mouth, the temporal flux that surrounds them once again making itself known, and fuck, she's going to age again and die as an old woman, this is not at all how she wanted to go--
Vex'ahlia drifts into the darkness, and without an anchor she never lands.
Or, the one where the battle with the Sphinx goes poorly, and Vex is thrown, injured and bleeding out, into the past. After being saved by someone unexpected and brought to Whitestone, she must make the choice to either let fate take its course as she knows it, or to try and change the events of the past despite not knowing how it may affect the future; a choice that's complicated more than is fair by a young human lordling who is far too familiar and yet a complete stranger all at once.

He’d spent his whole life on the streets, scavenging in trash for leftovers, stealing what few possessions he owned, but out here there were no dumps to sift through, no merchants to steal from, no alleys to hide in, only an endless sea of sand and scorching midday sun… However it is in this strange, hostile environment that he might find a home.

Summary
The first thing that came to Zayn’s mind when he read Liam Payne’s file was that he was certainly, definitely going to die before he was thirty. The word they used in The Office for such a case was reckless; reckless meant that, perhaps, the person wasn’t at fault, but the universe and said person’s energy didn’t happen to match. That made terrible things happen to that person.
Liam Payne was a classic case of recklessness.
[or: A modern times AU where Zayn is a guardian angel and he's been sent down to protect the most reckless human he's ever met.]
