Summary
This fic totally ignores Series Four, as is only right and just. Mary, eight months pregnant, disappeared and hasn't been heard from since. John was sad and grieving, more over the loss of his child than his marriage, but has had a year to reconcile himself. Now he's back in 221B and things are just the way they used to be.
Well, except for the horrible crush Sherlock is hiding. And the minor mystery of who is hanging all this mistletoe everywhere.

Summary
Unacceptable - this is what foster parents, social workers, and countless group homes have labeled Emma Swan.
For years, the monsters under her bed are in her head. They bring nightmares so intense she’s there, living a different era, loving a stranger, awakening to a freshly broken heart.
She’s used to people walking on eggshells around her, scared she’ll be triggered into another hallucination on the road. Until Mary Margaret takes up the role of overbearing mother and drags her to dream interpretation.
But who can interpret nightmares that feel like memories, feel like home?
And worse. How can she admit she’s falling for the guy with the calloused hands, ocean blue eyes, and raven hair that meets her every time she closes her eyes?
She can’t. Except for when August Booth claims he’s coming.
The man from her nightmares is coming and he’s going to tell her why her entire existence is wrong.
Of course her only response to that is What. The. Fuck.

Summary
Instead of an arrow, Cupid shot Levi with an illegal groin kick during his last fight and sent his Valentine’s plans with Eren into a tailspin of pain and hilarity. To make matters worse, our boys are being dogged by ducks...rubber ducks. Can Eren and Levi have at least one holiday that doesn’t go awry? Is Monsters, Inc. a sexy movie? Do we find out what the function of a rubber duck is?
This might not quite be a crack fic, but it’s most definitely a quack fic. I’m going to hell for these puns, but I’m taking you with me.

Summary
“When I asked you to relieve me of my boredom, this was not what I had in mind.”
It was clear to Giorno that the stranger was angry. The way he had grumbled out the words through his gritted teeth, all signs pointed to a very negative view on this situation. Unsure if his own sudden appearance was to blame, Giorno bowed his head in apology.
“I’m very sorry for intruding sir. I can leave if you would—”
“—No. Stay.”
That wasn’t an offer.
It was a command.
Another part in my Jojo/Dungeons and Dragons crossover. Can be read on its own. More information inside. <3

Summary
At age 25, Katie Holt had her doctorate astrophysics, worked on so many things, patented even more. Friends and family urged her to expand her horizons, and what better way than to read.
She fell in love with murder mysteries, and as such, tried to write her own. However, so far so bad.
"Your Killer is dumb." A voice said. Pidge's eyes snapped open and she rose to look at the source."And you are...?"
The raven-haired man shrugged. "Just a man who read your draft. Anyway, your killer is a fool. You can't kidnap someone like that. Chloroform takes five minutes to work." He leaned back and smirked. "I'm a serial killer." He folded his arms, looking smug.
Pidge laughed. It resounded throughout the café. The raven-haired man didn't seem fazed.
"You're a serial killer?! What a joke!”
"You don't believe me? Fine. Wait until I show up in your house with a cutlass.”
"I dare you, bitch.”
And that was how the unlikely couple of the aspiring Writer and the Serial Killer met.

Summary
“And you think an animal companion will fill whatever void I lack? I have people I speak to. Take Uraume for example—”
“Assistants who you only see at work or contact for work don’t count.”
“We exchange texts about non-work related topics.”
“Uh, huh. Anyway, get yourself an animal, test out opening your heart to another living being and if you don’t like it in two weeks, I’ll give up seeing you as human.” Satoru sauntered towards the door, throwing it open with reckless abandon before leaning on the handle to finish his thought. “Then we can put this whole thing behind us, ok? Good talk.”
♦ Sukuna is solitary by choice. His career always came first and his current position within the company proves how his mindset has been the key to his success. He has no time for another person, even less for a pet that require daily interaction when he would rather be in the office. Getting a fish was supposed to be the easy way out of Satoru's intrusive nonsense.
Oh, how wrong Sukuna had been.

Summary
If this boy really was a figment of his dream, then he would surely answer regardless of how Sukuna spoke. If by some chance he wasn’t… What use were provocations when a meeting such as this could very well be fleeting?
Those sparks of gold finally turned Sukuna’s away, glaring down at the curse before giving way to something far more dull and solemn.
“I can’t blame a warrior for seeking death in battle. Their reason for being craves an honorable conclusion. It is simply their nature. But those who get caught in the crossfire…” The little spirit tucked his hands in his sleeves and sighed. “Innocent lives shouldn’t have to pay the price of someone else’s decision to gamble their life against a cataclysmic foe. And that very foe shouldn’t drag in those same innocents to suffer when they’ve done nothing to draw his ire.”
Ah.
There was little confusion regarding whom the boy was referring to.
❤ One vivid dream was enough for Sukuna to yearn after a face he'd never seen before. A couple more may win over his butterfly's affection.

Summary
This isn't really a summary, more just me talking about shit before you actually read it, hi nice to meet you, Just letting you know in advance I am a first time writer and this is my first ever work on AO3 (Hooray) And the update schedule is going to be completely fucking random considering I'm still in high school and still trying to figure out how to fuck to survive that so do not expect a consistent upload schedule If this shit picks up traction then I might create a Discord server Probably not though, but this is just mostly because I wanted to do it, This started off as just a pet project and it fucking spiraled from there, Seriously I'm at like 11 pages at the moment and I don't know how to stop, but I am very much so open to criticism, as long as it's not too rude, Also my writing style is really big and clunky, Just apologizing in advance
