Drabble - prompt: "sick day". "I'm not sick, Castle."

A Dash Universe mini-epic. Set four/five months after the events of Mad Dash.

Kind of a follow-up to Significant Others. Two chapters. Kate gets sick.

Five glimpses in moonlight. Written for Julie.

A short piece on observation - Castle's observation of Beckett, and hers of him. No real spoilers but perhaps oblique reference to Significant Others. Happy Castle-less Monday (sigh).

The night life at Kate Beckett's apartment. Written for the tumblr anon who asked for a bedtime story.

post-ep for Reality Star Struck; Castle's second attempt at gift-giving.

How is it that he can make fun of her for Valentine's Day and then make her watch this. It's a good thing she has a plan... Episode insert for 5x11, "Under the Influence". Goes between the first day, and the second morning when Beckett wears that blue sweater and the scarf so strategically wrapped around her neck…

A little Thanksgiving dinner featuring our favorite crime fighting duo.

post-ep for Meet the Parents.

"We're gonna make it through this, Katie," he chokes out, his hand pressing against her head. And because this is the first time she's felt a glimmer of truth in his words, she slips the little guy into his pocket, pressing it into her father's body, a reminder that even on the worst days, there's a possibility for joy. Inspired by Kate's story in 5x03. COMPLETE.

Her feet slide off the raft and into the chilled pool and she breathes, listening to him inside the house; the clattering of dishes as they slide into place in the dishwasher; the music he puts on - Petty or Springsteen - she can't entirely tell with the roar of the ocean in her ears. *Season 5, but no actual spoilers*

AU: Beckett is a uniform on the Vice squad at the 12th. It's five years before the season one meeting. Cartographical sent me and Sandiane Carter a list of AUs she wanted to see. We were both so excited about Vice Beckett that we each wrote our own. This is mine. Thanks to garnetgivealittlelove for the cover art.

Oh, she really hopes these aren't more grocery lists of all the ingredients Castle needs for his odd culinary creations. One shot. Complete.

Castle and Beckett get stuck on a roof.

It all starts one Saturday afternoon when Castle casually suggests that Beckett has a little trouble controlling her volume during certain...private moments.
