Summary
While on medical leave after his miraculous recovery, Jim is plagued with dreams -- dreams of another James T. Kirk, the one from the same alternate reality that the other Spock hails from. At first, Jim's dreams are dismissed as a psychological symptom of his latest trauma, but when he starts talking about a place called the Nexus, the answer no longer seems so cut-and-dried. But disturbing dreams aren't the only thing Jim's struggling with -- there's Starfleet's concern over his mental stability, the repairs of his beloved ship and the little matter of the fact that his First Officer seems to be intent on ignoring him.

Summary
Asa’s last conscious thought, before he was lulled to sleep by the cool softness of the night and the rustle of the trees and the clammy weight of his husband’s hand in his own, was again of his wish on the star: let me know him, in every way there is, and let me keep him, please.
Squinting at the morning light, he clutched at his head, at the buzz in his ears and the ache in the bridge of his nose. It felt like something was growing, or rather, settling into his mind. And all at once, it fell into place.
It came like a montage, like an old photo album of a life that was slowly coming back to him, piece by piece. He remembers.
“Crowley!” The cry was torn out of him, desperate and guttural in a way he hadn’t ever heard his voice. At least, not in this lifetime.
Or: Asa Fell makes a wish on a shooting star. The next morning, he finds that it comes true.

Summary
Asa found the book when he was retiring. Bleak House, Dickens, a lovely old edition, tucked into a corner next to Asa’s desk. How curious, it must have been here even before Derek sold the shop to him fifteen years ago. He picked it up, admiring the lovely cloth-bound cover and faded gilt lettering. Why wasn’t this out with the stock – had he taken it in to price and forgotten about it?
Asa couldn’t look up from the pages. All blank, so very curious, because the paper seemed as genuinely old as the book. Maybe much older, somehow, than it ought to be. Except, someone had written on the first page.

Summary
Finally getting a physical body is great and all, but if it means Rimmer has to analyse his less-than-platonic feelings for his shipmate, maybe being able to touch is overrated.
(aka; rimmer tries to navigate the daily struggles of being a hard-light hologram while hopelessly pining for lister)

Summary
"I know what you mean about the sprites. They’re feistier than one of your Friday night curries.”
“Well, if you’re that bothered about it, Rimmer, there’s always something we could do,” Lister says with a shrug. He’s just biding his time, waiting for Rimmer to remove his fist from his mouth and-
“What something?” he asks, like he doesn’t want to know the answer.
Ah. There it is.
The AR discs have eroded after 3 million years, and the crew need some way to get their rocks off, right? Enter some crafty html coding and a heap of misunderstandings and you'll have a general idea what this fic is about.

Rimmer knew better than to ask. He had learnt his lesson from the psi-moon ordeal, found out the hard way why he ought not to question whether someone meant what they said.
But Rimmer was also a victim of his own ill-advised curiosity, and with memories of Lister’s recent moonlight speech still fresh in his mind, he knows he’s about to make the same smegging mistake again.Written for the Smegtober prompt: Argument

Summary
A modern magical comedy very loosely based on Ugly Betty. Publishing king Uther Pendragon has had enough of his playboy son seducing every female assistant he has ever had so he hires Merlin, a man he is sure Arthur will never sleep with. Merlin would be more insulted by this fact if he wasn’t so busy trying to juggle his duties, save Arthur's skin from ruthless fashionistas and keep his magic a secret at the same time. Expect appearances by oil-lathered knights, the occasional mad druid, a perverted Will and a mental caretaker who lives in the basement and keeps harping on about coins and destiny.
