Intimacy can take many forms. (A series of connected one-shots and short arcs focused on the developing friendship/relationship between Olivia Benson and Rafael Barba. No longer canon-compliant due to dialogue in 20x12.)

It's been five long years since the day he left. In a beautiful beach house on the cliffside of Montauk Olivia and Rafael finally confront the past.

*REHAUL AND REPOST* What happens when Elliot and Olivia run into each other after 7 years? On the night of his Bachelor party to another woman? Chaos ensues. EO

A tragic event leaves a lasting impact on the lives of Rafael and Olivia...

Olivia has moved on since Elliot left, partnering with Nick Amaro. She hasn't forgotten about Elliot, despite how hard she's tried. And for Elliot, it's the same. They haven't been in touch, but someone from their past may drive them together.

Post Ep The Undiscovered Country and forward. The aftermath of Barba leaving.

With his mother's impending nuptials, Rafael Barba needs help from Liv in the form of a wedding "date." He comes to the realization that what he's been wanting and needing all of his life, has been right in front of him for the past six years of his life.

Set post "Gone Baby Gone", it's all Barson need I say more? It's probably going to turn into a multi chapter.

Post-ep for 19x09: Gone Baby Gone. How do Olivia and Rafael deal with the events of the episode and how will their evolving relationship be affected?

"He hated to see her cry; each agonising sob was like a dagger to his heart." Barson missing scenes/post-eps for each episode of S19.

Entries for the Barson Daily's weekly drabble prompts plus maybe a few more if the mood strikes.

Barba has been looking for the right moment to tell Olivia how he truly feels. Maybe you find the right moment when you stop planning it.

Picks up right after the Season 18 finale. When SVU catches a case that falls into a legal gray area, Olivia fights to make sure that the victim gets justice. All the while, she and Barba fight to come to terms with their evolving relationship. Rated M just to be safe. Probably some language and maybe a little smut in the future.

Post Sanctuary/Season 18. I didn't want it to end. So it's not. Rating bumped up because at some point I will need it. No clue where this is going. Stay tuned. Barson centric but others will float in and out.

What happens when Olivia runs into Kathy and finds out Elliot used her as a cover all these years. Everything is new to them. Set in the present day.

Noah and Barba's first real interaction. How I think it would go.

Is it truly better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all? In the aftermath of their breakup, Olivia has a fleeting thought. What if she'd never accepted Ed's invitation to try the bourbon? She'll find out in an unexpected way. AlwaysTuckson

Amanda Rollins is done with their crap. #Barson

Post-S18. With the trial of an exceptionally heart-breaking SVU case fast approaching, Benson and Barba are determined as ever to seek justice. Olivia has been harboring information that she's willing to keep secret at all costs. But what happens when it compromises her relationship with the ADA and threatens to destroy the man himself? Starts at present then backward time jump.

Just a little PS to the end of Know It All. Cause Benson at the end, with her hand over her heart... come on! 4/9: So it's no longer a one shot. No good comes from googling Raul Esparza. None. Now I'm writing my first chapter story in MANY year. 4/16: Rating bumped up to T for now. Probably gets upped one more time before I'm done.

What does the ending of Olivia and Tucker's relationship mean for Barson going forward? Can a single mom of a young child with a demanding job have a successful relationship?

"What are you trying to say, Barba?" "I'm saying I can't do this anymore." My take on Barba and Olivia finally confronting the changes in their relationship. Two-shot.

Olivia Benson and Rafael Barba must go undercover in Miami. Things get heated. / Story title: My Greatest Desire. Benson/Barba, heed the rating!

The title pretty much explains it. Olivia is reaching for maternity. Eventual EO. I guess you'll have to read it if you want to find out more! Updated 11/25/16

My version of how season 18 should go. What happens when a tragedy brings Elliot back into Olivia's life? So much has changed for both of them. Can they ever get back what they once had?

She never had a family growing up and it took her along time but piece by piece she is getting that family she always wanted. Eventual Tuckson

Nick tells Olivia that he is leaving and she is shocked. Unspoken feelings come to the surface. Do they just love each other as friends or could there be something more? My thoughts on what happened that night after "Surrendering Noah." Switched to M rating for chapter 6 and more to come. COMPLETED.

Olivia has moved swiftly up the ranks, and is now a Captain. She runs a tight ship, and with her team, has transformed the 1-6 into one of the top precincts. But, when a new batch of Rookies is assigned to her crew, Olivia comes face to face with a blast from her past. Will this young officer be the key to reconnecting with her long lost partner, Elliot Stabler.

Inspired by Padre Sandunguero. After his final confrontation with his father, Nick wants to make things right with Olivia. Bensaro

Season 11. An attack on the precinct leaves the detectives unarmed and trapped in a volatile situation - Olivia and Elliot are thrust into danger. EO as always, because they are awesome :-) "They remained motionless, the room silent and still except for their breath. Olivia felt as though the air was almost thick around them - filled with unspoken feelings, words never voiced..."

Elliot and Olivia have always been good about hiding their feelings from each other; but will they reveal their true feelings before it's too late and one of them makes a choice to leave the other behind?

Elliot/Olivia. Set New Year's Day of 2009, shortly after the events of "Wildlife". Following an undercover mission in which they came close to sharing a kiss, Olivia confronts Elliot about his guilt and Elliot confronts Olivia about her anger.

They both knew the icy empty feeling the bed radiated, yearning that bright warmth. It was common for them to feel a little hollow. Even for Olivia who had Noah. Yet, soon enough Olivia and Nick find Love in one another. First Fanfiction! A Bensaro Drama :) The idea for this was born from the episode Padre Sandunguero. I use dialogue from the episode (sorry Dick Wolf).

More Bensaro sweetness. Nick and Olivia and what could happen now that she's no longer his boss. Will the two of them finally find their way to each other? Bensaro

Olivia & Nick share a passion filled night. Olivia ends up pregnant. This is a story about their bumps in the road through those 9 months. BENSARO pairing.

When a man begins stalking and murdering couples that all live in the same gated community, Nick and Olivia go undercover. How will Nick Amaro handle playing house with the woman he'd fallen for? M for future sexual content. (Formerly titled Husband & Wife.)
