    Summary

    Everybody dreams. That is one of the constants of the universe. One of the base programs of the human brain. Pleasant dreams or nightmares, they are all a way for the mind to process and try to understand the events of the day. But what if someone only ever had nightmares?

    Morpheus, the Lord of Dreams, rules the land of dreams, monitoring sleepers and occasionally making adjustments to their dreams and nightmares, but avoids becoming too involved with the human world. That is until one day…

    [Note: this is canon compliant with Harry Potter, but not The Sandman.]

    Eventual Snape / Morpheus, but mostly implied.

    Summary

    Written for the Kinkmeme prompt (and then followed in the loosest possible way!)

    Sherlock Holmes had his first experience of sex when he was sixteen years old, with a girl who was the daughter of his father's buisiness partner, helped along with a stolen bottle of scotch and a rather ancient looking condom stolen from the wallet of an obnoxious party guest.

    Somehow, eleven years and three months later, he's faced with ten year old John Watson.

    Picture at the end - didn't know where else to put it!

    Summary

    A Prime is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to… give or take that one small paracausal nudge.

    Or, that time the Matrix got impatient and stole a truck...

    It's only going to get more and more hazardous to binge all of this:
    ✔️ Optimus Prime being iconically wholesome
    ✔️ Cybertron being an exotic mechanical wonderland
    ✔️ Mystery, adventure, and intrigue
    ✔️ Not so much a slow burn as a long fuse
    ❌ Civil war

    Summary

    When Severus Snape banked on being dead at the end of a war, it was as much of a shock as a burden to find out he was very much alive. He'd rather welcome oblivion and be known as a hero, than watch himself become a listless ghost of his former self. He never expected his Life After Death would contain much but living an isolated, quiet, life. Instead he somehow ended up returning to Hogwarts to teach, becoming involved in student affairs he'd rather stay far removed from, and most importantly, having copious amounts of sex with his old childhood enemy- Remus Lupin.

    Recovery is a fickle and long road, and he certainly didn't expect his would involve accepting Remus as part of it.
