Since you're gone my empty arms have nothing left to hold

Last for now. I may have some more tonight. I will def. have more tomorrow.

Title: you'll whisper sweet lies to me (and one of them will be true)
Rating: PG13
Warnings: second person pov in the first part, wacky concept I guess.
Pairing: mild Jacob/MIB (->Samuel), both regular and alt.
Words: 950 ca
Summary: You have always known that Jacob lies. You know it like you know the back of your hand, but you’re brothers; as much as Jacob tries not to show it, he knows that he can’t really fool you. The problem is that Jacob’s lies are usually such sweet ones.
Spoilers: up until the S6 finale. Heavy.
Disclaimer: Lost isn't mine. Really.
A/N: for former queen weatheredlaw at lostsquee who asked for music inspired fic and had angsty Jacob/MIB among the options for pairings. I used The Aspidistra Files by Stars (from where the title comes from, too), even if.. er. Idek if it qualifies as angsty enough or even where it came from. Features second person/third person POV switches even if it's always the same POV, more or less. I really, really hope that you like it, and sorry if it's... weird? Also, implies that the MIB getting out of the cave wasn't the same that went in.

( “Well, good to know. So you’re finally coming with me now this time, or what?” )

Augh. I was sure I had LESS stuff to re-post. Anyway. These are all either for the Five Acts meme or from the lostsquee fic battle back in January. Not using my usual header format, but if I did this would clog up half of your f-lists and really, not. These is all Lost and all slash. Het is coming tomorrow along with the fandoms that are NOT Supernatural. Which is coming on Sunday.

Desmond/Sayid:

The Flesh Is Weak
Desmond/Sayid; S4 spoilers. 613 words, NC17; not mine.
Sayid probably doesn’t even know, but the way his hands are sure and practiced as he picks the broken engine part up and breaks it in pieces and observes it, the way they’re dirty with grease but still functional is making things to Desmond’s stomach.
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle, for the prompt gear; using for lostpicksix #36, quickie.
Because the flesh is weak, the old saying recites, and it’s generally true.

I Gazed A Gazeless Stare
Desmond/Sayid; 6x12 spoilers. 1372 words, NC17, warning for light bondage and breath-play; not mine.
“Brother, I just was tryin’ to get a reaction out of you. Seems like I did it, aye?”
A/N: originally written for wandersfound for the Five Acts meme (prompts: breathplay, hurt/comfort/kissing); using for lostpicksix #3, kink. Title from Nirvana/David Bowie.
Desmond’s eyes open up and stare right back into Sayid’s and if he’s surprised at having been tied against the tree, he doesn’t show it.

We'll Meet On Edges, Soon
alt!Desmond/alt!Sayid; 6x13 spoilers. 814 words, light R; not mine.
“Aren’t you afraid that someone will catch you, eventually?”; “I reckon that one day they will, but by then my job will be done.” Desmond shrugs, and Sayid doesn’t ask what the job is. He’s sure he won’t get an answer anyway.
A/N: originally written for aboutbunnies for the Five Acts meme (prompts: fugitives, kissing); using for lostpicksix #12, motel.
At times, Desmond disappears and Sayid stays at the motel.

---

Jack/Boone:

You Look At Me Now And Don't Think I Don't Know
Jack/Boone; S3 finale spoilers. 295 words, PG13, warning for drug use and Nirvana!Jack; not mine.
“You can’t do this to yourself,” Boone keeps on, a hand on Jack’s wrist squeezing it lightly and it’d feel just so good, so warm, so alive if only Jack’s fingers weren’t brushing against Boone’s own wrist. There’s no pulse. He can’t even have a proper delusion, these days.
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle for the with the prompt pills; using for lostpicksix #15, intoxicated. Title from Steve Earle.
“You should quit them,” Boone says softly, sitting on the edge of Jack’s battered mattress.

Outside Looking In
Jack/Boone, Sawyer; spoiler-free, set in S1. 701 words, NC17, warning for rimming and voyeurism; not mine.
Where Sawyer is innocently taking a walk and stumbles over something he really wasn't expecting to see. Ever.
A/N: originally written for haldoor for the Five Acts meme (prompts: rimming, voyeurism). Using for 2x5obsessions #5, entwined.
Well, he figures, next time he needs a free peep show, he can keep an eye on those two.

Other pairings:

When You're Down And Out
Miles/Daniel; spoilers up to 5x08. 589 words, PG13; not mine.
If you had asked him on the freighter, he’d have laughed in your face. Because really. Sharing a bed with Daniel Faraday in the seventies in the worst tropical heat ever existed?
A/N: originally written for ozmissage for the Five Acts meme (prompts: kissing, hot nights, sharing a bed, domesticity). Using for chem15try #12, transition state. Title from Simon & Garfunkel.
Miles is actually fine with it, all things considered.

At Dusk The Stars All Appear
Jack/Sawyer; set early-ish in the series so spoiler-free. 670 words, light r; not mine.
Jack never asked him what was in his letter, and Sawyer won’t ask him why he inks stars on his biceps.
A/N: originally written for gemjam for the Five Acts meme (prompts: tattoos, stars). Title from Bruce Springsteen.
Sometimes Sawyer thinks he should ask Jack why the hell would he get stars tattooed on his arm.

It's A Long Way Down To Nothing At All
Jack/Sayid; early S6 spoilers (set before 6x05). 639 words, light NC17; not mine.
“I don’t care what they said,” Jack whispers low as he pushes Sayid back against the wall of the Temple’s room with the pool, feeling like he needs closeness to say this, “you’re not dead or going dark side or whatever he means. You’re not. Hear me? Not under my watch.”
A/N: originally written for mollivanders for the Five Acts meme (prompts: worrying for someone, wall sex). Title from U2.
Jack needs to make his point.

Black Becomes Me Well
Jacob/Man in black; spoilers up to the S5 finale. 432 words, PG13; not mine.
The chessboard rests on the sand, undisturbed by the waves; they just don’t reach it, nor the two men sitting on the opposite sides of it.
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle, with the prompt chess. Title from a quote from The Seventh Seal.
The one dressed in white has the black side, the one dressed in black has the white.

It'll Wash Away
dead!Boone/dead!Charlie; spoilers up to the S3 finale. 1058 words, PG; not mine.
“I’m the only one who remembers, but you all… arrive like this. Anyway, your name is Charlie Pace and you were with me in a plane crash.”
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle, with the prompt amnesia. Title from Steve Earle, sort of.
He had sort of hoped that with Charlie it would be different.

Sacrifices Suck (but it could be worse)
Boone/Charlie/the smoke monster; spoilers up to the S5 finale, warning for tentacle sex, utter and unrepentant crack, wackiness and possible mental scarring. 1431 words, NC17; not mine, in this case luckily.
The only sensible answer they agreed upon was trying to stop the smoke monster from interfering; without such an ally out of the field (for not-John, of course), things would have been at least evened out; and then the problem became, how the fuck were they going to distract the smoke monster?
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle, with the prompt tentacle sex. This is all toestastegood's fault, by the way. And I warned you up there. Don't say I scarred you for life.
Sometimes Boone thinks that if there were prizes for people who didn’t learn their lesson even after death, he and Charlie would have won them all already with honors.

Duuuh. Will probably crosspost tomorrow so that I don't clog all fic comms at the same time. :/

Title: Only A Pawn In His Game
Characters/Pairings: Esau, Jacob/Richard, implied past Esau/Jacob
Word Count: 1764
Rating: PG13
Warnings: Esau being a bastard maybe?
Original Fic: Yours To Take by bittersweet325
A/N: I hadn't read the fic prior to receiving my assignment, but I absolutely loved it and since Jacob/Richard interests me a lot I had to go for this one. ;) I was tempted to go for Richard's POV but then Esau proved himself surprisingly fun to write and it worked better from his POV anyway, so I went for him. (Also, I hope you don't mind the small bit I added in the end which wasn't in the original. I couldn't resist.) No spoilers for S5 apart from what was in the original. Title from Bob Dylan.
Summary: Esau is a lot of things, among which manipulative and as evil as Jacob himself can get, but he’s definitely not stupid and he knows Jacob like the back of his hand if not better. He would never think that Jacob would give him a free gift, and so he doesn’t assume that Jacob accepts his small offer consisting in his human pet’s immortality as a random act of kindness, either.

( He never thinks for a second that Jacob will buy it. )

Title: Black Becomes Me Well
Rating: PG
Pairing: Jacob/Man in black
Words: 432
Summary: The chessboard rests on the sand, undisturbed by the waves; they just don’t reach it, nor the two men sitting on the opposite sides of it.
Spoilers: I guess you're safe with the S5 finale since I wrote it before S5 started.
Disclaimer: Lost isn't mine, as stated.
A/N: originally written for the lostsquee fic battle, using chess for a prompt. Title from a quote from The Seventh Seal.

( The one dressed in white has the black side, the one dressed in black has the white. )

Alright, I'm claiming two of the three fics I wrote for challenges this last month. Both links bring to the comms because I'm lazy like that and I like comments in the same place. ;) Sorry for the spamming, I also have another thing to post and I'll probably have another couple in the next two/three days.

Title: A Touch Of Infinity [Lost/Heroes crossover]
Fandoms: Heroes/Lost
Pairings: Adam/Jacob/Richard, Adam/Richard, Richard/Jacob, Adam/Jacob and all combinations thereof.
Rating: R to stay on the very safe side
Wordcount: 10,100
Spoilers: through all of S5 for Lost (especially 5x16/17), general S2 spoilers for Heroes (well, just really Adam’s backstory)
Summary: Adam is on the Black Rock when it crashes on the island in 1867. Richard is, too.
Warnings: er, is threeway between immortal people a warning? Apart from that, I don’t really think there’s anything triggering.
Disclaimer: Heroes and Lost belong to their respective creators. The title is not too subtly stolen from a short stories collection of Harlan Ellison’s so that’s not mine either.
A/N: written for aurilly at xover_exchange; beta-ed by the awesome siluria and catoasapun who were just the best ever. And, uh, I have to say that I had the time of my life writing this thing. Even if it's sort of seriously not my usual thing. My prompts were immortality and Adam/Jacob, Adam/Richard with an angsty triangle being acceptable. Which I totally couldn't not do.

Title: And The Highway Is My Home
Pairing or Characters: Kevin/Sawyer; Kate, Edward Mars and Jacob also appear.
Rating: NC17
Word Count: 5145
Warnings: completely and utterly non-linear narration; spoilers up until The Incident.
Summary: Sawyer nods and swallows, trying to block out the fact that being stuck on the run from the Marshal he killed one time that didn’t happen, with Freckles’ former husband, who’s there because he tried to bail her out and then he bailed Sawyer out, isn’t funny at all. It actually sounds like a bad soap opera, but he won’t go dwelling on that.
A/N: written for toestastegood for Lost Hohoho at lostsquee; my prompts were Sawyer/Kevin on the run plus bonus hand-holding. Much thanks to siluria for the great (and fast) beta-ing and suggestions. <33 and now that I don't have to keep my identity secret and risk giving myself out because I steal titles from songs, I can say that the title is stolen from Merle Haggard. ;)

This is me trying to catch up at least with the writing for the luau. Sorry for the spamming, I have at least two fics to post now and maybe I'll have more later tonight. Actually, I'm sure I'll have more, but bear with me.

Title: Temptation
Rating: PG
Pairing: Jacob/Boone
Words: 1753
Spoilers: up until the S5 finale, even if it's light stuff.
Summary: It's just that sometime shortly after he starts having his sleeping trance-like trips in an heavenly version of Myst (even if he couldn’t find any kind of quiz to solve except for merely asking himself why does he dream about this at all), someone shows up on the beach in the distance. He never moves. Each night, Boone comes a bit nearer.
Disclaimer: er, no, Lost is sooo not mine.
A/N: for Queen aurilly at lostsquee, whose first request for Sayid I actually loved, but then she went and said Jacob/Boone and... er. I had to try it. Never mention Boone with someone I haven't paired him with... *cough* anyway, I really hope you like it and sorry for the lateness! ♥ using for 2x5obsessions #4, elusive dreams. Title kinda stolen from what I'm listening right now because I was stomped for one day and I was seriously becoming desperate for one.

( The dreams start the day after Boone’s twenty-second birthday. )

Title: Let Time Stand Still
Rating: PG13
Pairing: Jacob/Richard
Words: 1138
Spoilers: heavy for the season five finale. Probably also in the summary.
Summary: After all, it's all about the island; it's about who gets to stay and who has to leave because it's too big for the two of them. For Richard, well, for Richard it's all about who stands in the end. In one case, things go on, in the other, not so much. After all, his destiny became Jacob's the day he woke on a beach after a shipwreck; there's no backing out now, and he doesn't even want to.
Disclaimer: nope, Lost isn't mine. NEWS!
A/N: for the most lovely Queen emiliglia at lostsquee who wanted S6 speculation. Er. I really wish I could have given you some nice reset scenario which I hadn't already written, but it didn't want to happen and, er, considering that what interested me most about Lost S5 were those two and it happened. I hope you like it! ♥ Using for 10_shakespeare, 'I like this place and could willingly waste my time in it.' Title stolen from a random Jeff Buckley song which doesn't have a thing to do with this otherwise.

( Richard tries not to hurry; that wouldn't really do. Not now. )

Yes, I'm definitely nuts. But that was the porn battle prompt I couldn't get out of my head.

Title: Fire Of Unknown Origin
Rating: R
Pairing: Jacob/Castiel
Words: 1565
Summary: Castiel had told him to pay attention, it was, as humans sometimes said, like playing with fire; and Jacob had smiled his bright, angelic smile and said that if he got burned, it'd have just been fate.
Spoilers: er, general S4 for SPN (if you know who Castiel is then you're safe) and The Incident (5x16/5x17) for Lost.
Disclaimer: sure as hell they aren't mine, otherwise I wouldn't have lost half an hour between Lostpedia theories and angel lore. And I'm not rich enough, anyway.
A/N: written for the Porn battle for the prompt fate. Aaand, using for sacred_20 #15, fate, au_abc, x-over, and entering for lostfichallenge #95, crossover. Title stolen from Patti Smith, and by the way, Lost canon is a whole new level of complicate.

( Once, Jacob wasn't his name. That was before he fell, but after the Fall. )
