Hello boys and girls I thought I'd drop off some recently written fics before I head off to Maine for a mini-vaca over the weekend. Both these link to rounds_of_kink, hence the unusual posting-format I'm using, haha!

Title: Yes, the River Knows
Author: Tooks
Fandom: Criminal Minds
Pairing/character: Emily/Ethan
Rating: FRT
Summary: Emily focused on his hand, pressed down in the center of his palm so his fingers twitched. She liked the reaction, that she could cause it, but relaxed her force nevertheless.
Notes: This was written for rounds_of_kink Halloween Mini-Round using the prompt "Charcoal"...Title is from a 1968 song of The Doors. Ethan is Reid's friend from Season 2's "Jones".

"Art does not reproduce the visible; it makes things visible." ~ Paul Klee

Title: Tempt the Devil
Author: Tooks
Fandom: Pirates of the Caribbean
Pairing: Mercer/Lil Foyet
Rating: FRM
Summary: Mercer could smell her under the flowers and expensive perfume. Even her scent was primal and it recalled his first hunts as a boy.
Notes: This was written for the rounds_of_kink Halloween Mini-Round based on the prompt "Lace". Title is from a book set in the 1700s.

"Devils soonest tempt, resembling spirits of light." ~ William Shakespeare, Love's Labour's Lost

Title: Where I Lived, and What I Lived For
Author: Tooks
Pairing: Hotch/OFC
Rating: FRM
Summary: So often people ask me about him because they want a good story to tell their friends or put in their paper or because they think talking to me is some…link to the legacy of The Boston Reaper.
Notes: This is the fourth piece in The Eye of Providence. Takes place during & just after Season 5's "Outfoxed" and "100"...the title is Chapter 2 of Thoreau's Walden. This chapter's style is more experimental, but I think it pays off and I know I loved doing it, haha! (Thanks pink_siamese for all the help & encouragement...and some beta-ing, haha! ^_^) Lemme know what ya'll think :D

Title: Brute Neighbors

Pairing: Hotch/OFC
Rating: FRT
Summary: So often people ask me about him because they want a good story to tell their friends or put in their paper or because they think talking to me is some…link to the legacy of The Boston Reaper.
Notes: This is a follow-up to Visitors. Takes place during Season 5's "The Performer"...the title is Chapter 12 of Thoreau's Walden and I kept the same summary cause it works overall. I think this is essentially a multi-chapter fic now and so I've named the whole thing The Eye of Providence, haha! (Thanks pink_siamese for all the help & encouragement! ^_^)

Notes: This is a follow-up to Reading. Takes place during Season 5's "Reckoner"...the title is Chapter 6 of Thoreau's Walden and I kept the same summary cause it works overall.

Pairing: Prentiss/Emma Frost (w/ Gideon, Reid, and Garcia), Hotch/Magneto, Foyet/Mystique, Strauss/Rossi & Wolverine
Rating: FRT
Summary: "Mutation: it is the key to our evolution. It has enabled us to evolve from a single-celled organism into the dominant species on the planet. This process is slow, and normally taking thousands and thousands of years. But every few hundred millennia, evolution leaps forward." ~ Charles "Professor X" Xavier, X-Men (film)
Notes: Four short Criminal Minds/X-Men crossovers...X-Men = general fandom, not a specific version. First was written for a prompt from a comment fic I did, the others just popped in my head...had a TON of fun with this though, haha! I hope you enjoy them, haha! :D

Rating: FRT
Summary: So often people ask me about him because they want a good story to tell their friends or put in their paper or because they think talking to me is some…link to the legacy of The Boston Reaper.
Notes: Right so I was going along working on a bunch of different things when this suddenly jumped up and tackled me...then it sat in my brain until I wrote it down. Takes place shortly after Season 5's "Nameless, Faceless"...the title is Chapter 3 of Thoreau's Walden because it kind of fits and I couldn't find anything better for a summary that didn't give away the whole story. Not sure what to make of it all myself, but I'd be interested it hear what ya'll think, haha! ^_^

Title: This is Fate

Rating: FRT
Summary: "But it doesn't matter what I do, what I choose...This is fate." ~ Dexter Morgan, Dexter
Notes: Four short Criminal Minds/Dexter crossovers. The Lila in these are Lila Tournay from Season 2 of Dexter. No better summary than that quote, really, haha! Two were written for prompts from a comment fic I did, two others just popped in my head...be kind, my first attempts at crossing over these two shows, but I hope you enjoy them, haha! :D

Rating: FRAO

Beta'd by: Always helpful and incredibly awesome pink_siamese
Fanmix & Art by: Incredibly cool queenmidalah...art post here!
Additional Notes: This is "The Blonds Case" for the au_bigbang. Set in the Noir, "Living For the Night" (thanks to let_it_linger21). Rather than give warnings per-section let's just say there's going to be violence and sex abound, sometimes combined and some involving a teen, mild incest, and a character death. This section is in Hotch's POV.
