Word Count: 1630
Spoilers: None
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: Luke Skywalker Presumed Dead (see author’s notes)
Summary: Luke never returned after the Second Death Star was destroyed, and Leia, Han and all of the New Republic believe their hero is dead. Time moves forward and on the first anniversary of the fall of the Empire, Leia tells Han the truth about her relationship with Luke.

Author’s Note: This short fic was the start of something that was supposed to be so much longer, involving Mandalore, Din Djarin, Grogu, badly hurt Luke, and the usual cast of character. It's been sitting in my WIP folder for almost two years. I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to finish it, but I think the beginning can stand alone as something angsty and kinky. I've chosen not to tag for Major Character Death because, well, in my head, Luke isn't dead (see AO3 tags).

It's also why I haven't put my usual fic-ending "FIN" at the end of it.

Title: See Me Once, See the Way I Feel

Pairings: Harry Hart | Galahad/Gary “Eggsy” Unwin
Word Count: ~35,905
Spoilers: None
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: Expressions of Anti-Semitism
Summary: Harry Hart, Director of Acquisitions for the Lepidopteral Catalog at the London Natural History Museum, is on his way home one Sunday afternoon, and encounters a lovely young man selling a rare collection of butterfly books in an antique fair. Of course he has to stop and take a look, and it doesn't take a scientist to see that this young man is as rare and special as the books he's selling.

Eggsy's a young man working hard to support his mum and baby sister, but the three jobs he's working at barely help make ends meet. A lucky encounter with a posh gent who just happens to want to buy an old set of books he's got might just give him a way out of a live of endless poverty.

__________________

Author’s Notes: Written for binary_sunset for the 2019 Age Gap Exchange. They had asked for gentle lepidopterist Harry in an academic setting - this is close to that and I hope you like it. I'm also a trifle embarrassed at the length of the story - 36k in one go is a lot of words, but every time I tried to make it shorter, I only ended up writing more.

I didn't tag this as a crossover, but Victoria and Ivan are characters from RED/RED 2, and my head canon is that whether the story is canon-adjacent or AU, Victoria is the only woman Harry's had sex with (and if canon-adjacent, other than on a honeypot or within mission parameters).

Title: What's Past is Present
Author: elrhiarhodan / elrhiarhodan / elrhiarhodan
Fandom: White Collar, Kingsman (Movies)
Rating: Mature
Characters: Neal Caffrey, Peter Burke, June Ellington, Mozzie, Elizabeth Burke, Sachmo, Bugsy; Harry Hart, Eggsy Unwin, Merlin
Pairings: Neal Caffrey/Peter Burke, Peter Burke/Elizabeth Burke, Harry Hart/Eggsy Unwin, Harry Hart/Neal Caffrey (past)
Word Count: ~18,500
Spoilers: None
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: Canon Levels of Violence
Summary: Set in a universe where Season 6 of White Collar didn't happen, Peter asks Neal - now a year or so off of the anklet - for some help with a art theft case. Ironically, it's antiquities from the Mosul Museum, which had been sacked by ISIL in 2015, that are being sold by a gallery on Park Avenue. Neal's eager to assist, at least until he sees the buyer's name. It's one he's unfortunately familiar with - Henry DeVere.

Harry Hart and his new husband, Eggsy, had their honeymoon in Italy rather rudely disrupted when an old target resurfaces in New York City.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, or, don't blackmail spies. They really don't like that sort of thing.

Author’s Note: I started writing this in 2018, as a Chocolate Box treat, but set it aside when I got stuck (when my characters started behaving badly). I found it last week and realized that they were behaving badly and going all out of character because I wasn't being very nice to them. They just needed a little kindness to get them back on track.

Like many of my White Collar stories, it's based upon something I read in the New York Times. In this case, it's about the New York District Attorney's aggressive prosecution of the sale and possession of looted and stolen art. You can read the article here.

Title: Where the Old Ghosts Play
Author: elrhiarhodan
Fandom: The Flash (2014)
Rating: PG
Characters: Barry Allen, Earth-19 Harrison Wells (HR Wells)
Pairings: Implied Barry Allen/Iris West (canon relationship), Implied (more than) Barry Allen/Harrison Wells | Eobard Thawne, Implied Unreciprocated Barry Allen/Earth-2 Harrison Wells
Word Count: ~3600
Spoilers: Episode Tag for S3.16 - Into the Speed Force
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: Non-Canon Death of Non-Canon Character
Summary: Set immediately after the events of Into The Speed Force, Barry doesn't go to Cisco's, but decides to bunk down at S.T.A.R. Labs, where he has a strange and painful late-night conversation with the Labs' permanent resident, HR Wells.


Author’s Notes: I've had a very hard time getting a handle on HR Wells. He's annoying, but at the same time, intriguing. We have no real clue as to his motivations - unlike Harry or EoWells, and despite the massive amount of words that come out of his mouth, we still don't know why he's here. The scenes with Jesse have given me a hint, and this story explores certain ideas. Please pay attention to the tags for this one. If you need more detail, please see the end notes.

There is also the tiniest hint of a crossover. If you know about my other fandom interests, you'll pick up on it.

Title: Whatever May Come, Whatever May Go (Don't Give Up)
Author: elrhiarhodan
Fandom: The Flash (TV 2014)
Rating: NC-17
Characters/Pairings: Barry Allen, Harrison Wells | Eobard Thawne, Cisco Ramon; Eobard/Barry Allen
Spoilers: Minor references to S3.01 - Flashpoint, but more in relation to the comics version of that event.
Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: None
Word Count: ~7000
Beta Credit: None
Summary: A direct sequel to It's Thin Line (between love and hate). At the end of that story, Barry and Eobard had negotiated a cease-fire to the centuries of hostility, but it doesn't last - not for an hour, or even a minute. At least not until a pair of happily married doppelgangers decides that enough is enough.

A/N: Written for Day 03 of Fic-Can-Ukah, for @Timeforalongstory (Kyele). They asked for the prompt: "What it Means to be Remembered" and EoBarry. This might not conventionally fit the prompt, but it is a story I know that they have been waiting for. Tangentially fits into the EoBarry Revealed 'verse.

There is a special joy in writing in a fandom that has time travel and the multiverse. You don't like the canon versions? Just invent new ones. Both sets of Eobards and Barrys are non-canon, although one pair is closer to canon than the other.

Title (and much of the mood of this story) was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song, Don't Give Up.

Feel free to follow me at my tumblr Obscene Circus Ponies, or on my old school (and much beloved) LiveJournal account.

Summary: Set about five years after The Silence Between the Birdsong, Joe West and Harry Wells are in a relationship that is much more than casual. Harry, however, is having some difficulty accepting that his brilliant daughter is going to be building her own life with the man she loves. Joe, who has never been shy about expressing his feelings for this difficult man, is the voice of common sense.

A/N: Written for Ladyofpride's Harrison Wells Appreciation Month. I was lucky enough to get a chance to write Harry interacting with both Jesse and with Wally West, but this is first and foremost, a Jarrison fic with all the Jarrison feels I could manage, and then some.

Summary: Time is not a looped ball of string. Time is not a straight line. Time might be a tangled knot, unless time is simply an illusion.

Or, what happens when Harrison Wells finds a copy his biography at the annual Stuckeyville Library Book Sale.

I'm really kind of shocked that no one has done this yet, fused Ed with The Flash, but there's always a first time for craziness. And a quick primer if you don't know anything about that show. Ed was a New York lawyer on track for the big leagues, when he screwed up a contract he drafted, misplacing a single comma. He was fired and went home to find his wife in bed with a mailman, so he took a trip back to his hometown of Stuckeyville, Ohio. And bought the local bowling alley. That's all you need to know.

Many thanks to theatregirl7299 for her cheerleading and encouragement and advice, in addition to her fabulous beta work. Also, thanks to SuperSnowstorm Jonas for keeping me inside for two days straight.

Title from the Peter Gabriel song, Blood of Eden.

See end for additional (and spoilery) notes.

Warnings/Enticements/Triggers: Expressions of homophobia, transphobia, past reference to a physically and emotionally abusive relationship. Please see more extensive notes in the Master Post on my Journal.
Summary: An alternate universe partially based on the characters and location in "Upper West Side Story", but with a twist - of the "Victor/Victoria" kind. Neal Caffrey teaches European History, but has an interesting and potentially career-damaging gig at his godmother's nightclub. Enter Peter Burke, talent agent and an old friend of June's, who plays the fairy godmother role to the hilt.
