Summary
"They have infected the Machine to turn it into a weapon," Finch says, staring at the board with a strange look of detachment, "So that they can use it to track down any individual of their choosing. It just happens that I am their first target, Mr. Reese... There is quite literally nowhere left to run."

Contingency Plans Gone Wrong by CookieMonstersRUs for My friend Laurell

Summary
Friday at Captain Knots was cowboyz and cowgirlz day. Club music played in the shop and Miranda took to scandalously grinding up against Ryan as Felicity knocked their hips together. Jon entered the store and dropped his book immediately at the sight, flushing. Ryan grinned at him and untangled himself from the girls before strutting over him. “Jon! Jonny Boy! What can I get you?”
Ryan was hanging all over Jon, the high of music and dancing still hazing his mind. Jon cleared his throat, suddenly dry. “A water.”
“Perfect,” Ryan grinned and pulled away, tearing heat with him. He jumped over the counter. “Do you want anything to eat?” Ryan called. His hips were swaying, butt wiggling for everyone to see. (Those jeans though. Jon was helpless to the jeans. And Ryan’s butt.) “A cinnamon bun?”
Ryan actually (I-shit-you-not) moaned at the idea. “Cinnamon buns! My favorite!” Jon looked up just in time to see Ryan look back and lick his lips. And god his lips…Jon stumbled to a chair and studiously placed his bag on top of his crotch.
Or the one where Ryan Ross loses his memory, cries, and opens up a coffee shop in the middle of nowhere but his *true loves* find him anyway. -

Summary
It started because the President's wife was crazy. Or rather, the whole plot was enabled by the utterly bizarre direction the president's wife's paranoia had gone in. Obviously, any woman who was willing to marry that gluttonous pig of a man had to be at least a little crazy, but no, this woman was crazy for other reasons, such as her utter obsession with the phrase 'what do we do if...'

Cloud is a bit fed up with this time loop business. Fortunately, this round, he has a plan. And it's going to be fun for everyone except for Shinra.

Bookmarker's Notes
Chapter one is the best kind of ridiculous crack time loop!
This story should probably be titled "Fucking With Shinra 101."
*
She wasn't sure why, but Shinra seemed to have a 'back away very slowly and don't make it angry' policy when it came to zombies.
Well, okay. Maybe it was kind of funny to pull one over all of Shinra.
*
"…and in light of this new evidence, I feel it is obvious that the current plague is a direct result of the misuse of misunderstood resources that Professor Hojo was given leeway with."
*
King smiled beatifically at her. "Why, your daughter of course. She'd be the perfect person to create a miracle cure."
*
"Are we in a cult? The Vincent guy asked me if I need help getting out."
*
Thankfully, all Elmyra had had to do to shoot down that plan was give the ridiculous blonde a severely disappointed look for a solid thirty seconds.
*
At this point, Cloud was not ashamed to admit that he was actually gaping. "How the fuck did we manage that?"

Summary
“The Marshal,” Ignis says in a careful tone, his eyes turned down to where he’s cleaning his glasses, “was correct when he said that we are in an undesirable position. We are in the midst of a war, our nation has been decimated, and there is only one surviving member of the royal family. Noct, the Empire knows that you are alive, and they will everything in their power to find and kill you.”
“So this,” Noctis says, and Ignis says,
“Lucis needs an heir, Noct. Take it as hedging our bets, if you will. Noct,” Ignis says, and when Noctis meets his eyes, Ignis’s eyes are crinkled and he is smiling awkwardly. “The child will be well-cared for, and in the event of the worst, it would maintain the royal line.”
---
The Marshal's contingency plans after the collapse of the Crown City include making an (illegitimate) heir. In short, it's Noctis being awkward and uncertain about the whole plan, then showing up ten years later, still awkward and uncertain. Also, a lot of hurt and little comfort, some parenthood feelings, a heavy side of Ignis-feels, and Noctis trying to cope with all the trauma and uncertainty of his life. (Hint: He doesn't, but he sure tries hard.)

Summary
Bruce is poisoned at yet another gala and he calls for the only person he can trust enough to get him to safety, secret identities be damned. So why is he being taken away by some stranger and where is Superman?
--
Bruce frowns and tries to focus his swimming vision. Something isn’t right. This isn’t the bright blue and red he’s been mentally preparing for. The material is all wrong and it feels scratchy brushing against his skin. Superman’s suit isn’t scratchy. It’s smooth and comforting to touch; whatever he’s touching isn’t. This isn’t Superman, this is that stranger and his weird suit. It’s- it is-
“So ugly,” Bruce mumbles at the offending greyish brown fabric he’s got his cheek pressed against. -
