    Summary

    Parker knows what time Arthur tended to show up at the bar, he knows that it wasn't Arthur's first drink of the night and won't be his last. He knows that Arthur has to be drunk with how much he'd seen him drink in the little time he'd been there. Yet when Arthur draws himself to his full height, easily towering over the snarling man who was puffing his chest as if he wasn't intimidated in the slightest, he stands steady.

    "What the fuck did you just say?"

    Parker's eyes widened at the icy tone, not the first hint of anger he'd heard out of Arthur, but by far the most chilling. It spurs him off his own chair, but not fast enough.

    Summary

    Arthur was a far better person than he.

    John wanted. He leaned over Arthur in the bed, watching his nose crinkle adorably as a stray hair brushed over it, and he wanted.

    He wanted to touch, to feel, to be with Arthur again. It burned, being so close yet never close enough. He wanted to be inside of Arthur, to burrow into his bones and exist warm and safe in his flesh and blood. He wanted to consume him, to wrap the many limbs he used to have around his arms and legs, fold him up in his golden cloak and hold him there forever. He wanted to protect him from the horrors of the world and the horrors in his mind and hide him from everything that could cause him pain.

     

    John thinks about his many misgivings with the new situation of being apart from Arthur, and battles his own sleep demons. Set sometime after the events of canon? I don’t know, but John has his own body now.

    Summary

    John and Arthur get married on a whim. This AU proceeds.

    Read "Can't Be By Myself" for all the base information.

    All these fics may not be in the same universe. The only thing that matters is that John and Arthur are husbands, and have matching wedding rings.

    Other writers are open to write under this AU if you would like. :)

    Summary

    John’s body settled eventually into a human shape. His usual human body, John says, has a square jaw, long dark hair, and golden eyes. He also says, with no small annoyance, that he is a few inches shorter than Arthur.

    Sometimes, he has other bodies too. Now, they no longer rip out of him like nails piercing him from the inside out; instead, he can slide into them, like a comfortable blanket.
    -
    On a sleepless night, Arthur and John enjoy tomato soup and many-limbed hugs.

    Summary

    "There are people who need your help there. They don’t know it yet, and will likely try their very best to get rid of you. But they need you. If you don’t help, their world will end, and then countless others will be affected when they attempt to fix it. If you intervene now, this can all be prevented. And hey, if you fix it, you can go back to Arkham! The apocalypse is due for them in just a few years. If you stop it in time, you can return to the home you want so badly in no time at all!” The Manager begins to laugh slightly, quickly suppressing it into a quiet chuckle.

    Arthur sighed in resignation. “Okay. What do we have to do?”

    “What? Oh, I have no idea. Figure it out! That’s what you’re good at, right?”

    ***

    AU where Arthur and John are sent to help out at the Magnus Institute in season one instead of back to Arkham. Nobody is impressed by this situation, except maybe Tim.

    Summary

    It's not jealousy. Adrian is adamant about that. They are actually insisting that it’s not any emotion at all. Not even dislike. They are simply completely uninterested in anything that concerns “the human”. 

    Rocky believes them. Adrian has always been the level-headed one out of the two of them. They are too logical to be jealous. They acknowledge that Grace and Rocky have a special bond after everything they went through together and also understand that none of that will ever pose a threat to their relationship. 

    Neither are they heartless or ungrateful. They know that Grace is the only reason that Rocky is back at all, the only reason their star has stopped dying. Adrian has told Rocky again and again that they are grateful and happy and wish the alien no ill will. They even helped with the construction of the biodome.

    And yet they have no desire to get to know Grace. 

    **************

    You know those videos where the dad is like "You may keep the cat but I will have nothing to do with it" and a few days later they are smothering the kitty with cuddles and love?

    Adrian never stood a chance.

    Summary

    Arthur had met his gaze, eyes glinting an inhuman hue. He had smiled as he rushed him and Parker could only call out his name as he was thrown to the floor.

    "But he didn't kill me," Parker mumbles aloud, running a thoughtful hand against his jaw. "Whatever had Arthur tried, but it failed."

    A "Parker Lives" AU, he's going to get answers even if it kills him (and it already tried).

    Summary

    Reunited in the Dark World, but finding themselves with two separate bodies, John and Arthur realize that neither of them are enjoying the distance.

    And, well. John’s body is physical, but it’s malleable enough that they can still make it work. It’s not going to be an elegant rejoining, per se—but anything’s worth it if they can be together again.

    Summary

    “A dinner out, with drinks, music, and dancing,” John continued almost bashfully. “You said, someday, when we returned to Arkham…” His sentence trailed away.

    Suddenly, everything slotted into place, as did the meaning in that now-so-distant promise. It hadn’t just been about returning to Arkham, but when they were no longer running for their lives. When they were no longer threatened by insane, all-powerful gods from other planes of reality. When they weren’t bleeding, and broken, and feeling more and more inhuman as the days went on.

    When they had finally scrounged up a scrap of peace.

    And they had. Somehow, miraculously, they had that, now. Peace. Calm. A life of their own—lives of their own—separated and comfortable and, dare he even think it, stable. By comparison, of course.

    How had he allowed that promise to slip by the wayside?

    Arthur and John find themselves with a gramophone and a night off.

    Summary

    He watches light float in through the windows from cars and streetlights. He ignores the slurred rambling of bar-hoppers and conversation of late-night workers that cross under their apartment. He smells the soap Arthur used to wash up and the odor of smoke and gasoline from the lifted window.

    John inhales all of it, holds it, and lets it out.

    The body that was once his lays four inches from him.

    And he wishes he could return to it.

    -

    John gets a body.

    He now has to deal with not being in Arthur's.

    Summary

    "You can see the color," Arthur says sharply, cutting off John's uncertain descriptions.

    "I have always been able to see colors Arthur, is this not something humans are capable of?"

    Arthur lets out a huffed breath, something John can't decide is frustration, exhaustion, or humor at his expense. "No John, most humans are not able to see color until they meet their soulmate. Some never get to."

    Summary

    The shitty motel room was bathed in shadows, the sole light trickling from the partially ajar bathroom door, dabbing a stripe of maize over the sheets and stained wallpaper.

    But the glaring light in the otherwise dark room was not what had drawn John's fading attention.

    No.

    Arthur had done that.

    Arthur, who had scrubbed his face in what was likely cold water from a too-old tap, who ran his fingers through his mussed hair, who slowly discarded layer after layer of clothing, bundling coat, tie, and shirt neatly on the counter.

    Arthur, thin as a rail, weariness clinging to every jutting bone, battered and bruised and separate and…

    Freckled.

    John finds something else about Arthur to be completely enamored by.

    Summary

    Arthur wakes up. So many of his memories lately start with this. He wakes up, and everything hurts, and John is saying something—but John’s not saying anything this time, and there’s someone in this room with Arthur that sounds a lot like his friend.
    --
    John’s voice always rose and fell, low into a deep growling bass and high into a rough yell. But one constant, one word that never sounded different no matter the tone was how he said Arthur’s name. Emphasis on the ‘ar’ and ‘ur’, the ‘th’ in the middle always smooth like wind. Other people tended to hiss that sound, the ‘th’. With John, it seemed he knew exactly how to say it to make it glide.

    Based on all that, he deduced it was in fact John saying, “Arthur!”
