Decode by SilverLining2k6 reviews
Two-shot. Early S2. Plays nice with canon up through around Ahoy Mateys. Expect canon V/D and self-denial at first. "Logan presses the box into my palm and curls my fingers around it. I run my thumb over the nap of the velvet. "What's this?" "Birthday present. I had it custom-made, so it can't be returned." He shrugs, ducks his head. "Toss it if you want. Or keep it. Whatever."

Irreversible by Sandfire Kat reviews
They were cardinal rules. Don't lose control. Don't slip up. Don't make a mistake, and if you did, you'd better fix it, and fast. Jonathan and Cameron had been taught this; both of them had had it ingrained in their memory. Etched, and permanent, and ever-present. But Jonathan couldn't fix this mistake in time. It was too late. Cameron suffocated. He was gone. He'd lost his brother

Life Goes On by JackiLeigh reviews
Season 5 has me very miffed at the Burkes. In the latest ep (5X10) I really didn't like Peter's comment to Jones that they didn't know that Neal had heard. This is just an idea I had running around in my head based on that incident. It is AU, I excluded some events that occurred to emphasize others.
