After Ross has done the unthinkable, how can he possibly find a way to give Demelza what she deserves? Post S2 Epi 8 (Spoilers for U.S. viewers).

After spending 9 years in the Army, willingly isolated from home Damon Salvatore returns to Mystic Falls to see Elena Gilbert, his brother's girlfriend and his first love. What he finds is a battered and broken Elena and he'll do everything in his power to make it right. Can he help her and overcome his own demons or are they both too damaged to take a chance on each other? AH/AU

Picking up where my short fic "Leaving Neverland" ended (around 3x10), we see how that one night affects both Emma & Killian in Storybrooke. When Pan's Curse is imminent, Killian offers to escape the curse with Emma & Henry, but he isn't prepared for the result. Canon divergence but still will follow show's events. Rated *M*, but most content will be rated *T*.

Klaus lost her once. He's not about to lose her again. No matter what it might take to get Caroline to remember who she is and who they once were to each other. A Hades/Persephone Klaroline AU (though mostly canon until 2x08)

Damon and Elena navigate the joys and sorrows of a new relationship while fending off unpredictable attacks from terrifying supernatural enemies. But when they're confronted with the shadows of Damon's past and messy moral dilemmas, will they be able to build a life together that they can be proud of? A whole new version of Season 5 without the heartbreaking events of the finale.

A whole different version of Season 4, without sire bonds or dead brothers. A meditation on the nature of love, free will and morality in an imperfect world, through: suspense, romance, steam, angst, and friendship. Tons of Delena as well as Stefan/Caroline/Klaus, Jeremy and Ric, too. Lemons!

AU/ What happens when the unthinkable happens? When death invades life, a body is buried and all that's left is grief and the knowledge that nothing will ever be the same? And how do you hold to a love that you never had enough of to begin with, now separated by a supernatural veil? Is there any peace to be found, for the living or the dead? / Alt Ssn 3 End, Delena, Character Death

She's different now, and struggling to understand who she sees when she looks in the mirror. He's trying to re-find his place in her life, but his reflection is alone. What will it take to bring them together? / A walk through of episode 4x02 Memorial, through my eyes and theirs. Canon for the scenes in the episode, non canon for what happened when the camera stopped. Delena.

You fall in love, get married, fall in love again, get your heart broken. What if it got broken by a heart surgeon that never came back to fix it? Damon/ Elena - AU/AH

AU, plotty ensemble fic with slow burn Damon/Elena. On the night that Elena meets Damon, her cell phone dies before she can call home for a ride. Their conversation is never interrupted by her parents' arrival, Elena and her parents are never in a car that goes off Wickery Bridge, and Stefan never has to save Elena from drowning. Enjoy and review! (And then go read Part II.)

By 9:00 a.m., she had broken a heel, lost her cell phone, and been the victim of a coffee catastrophe. By 9:30 a.m. she had "borrowed" the NSA mainframe. By 10:00 a.m., she was engaged to Oliver Queen. Really, it was all in a day's work. Plotty, fluffy fun with a side dish of heart. Part 18: "Putting on a Show for Justin Timberlake"

Post-6x22. It's been five years of living in dreams, but when even dreams are in danger of disappearing forever, it's time to start fighting for reality to come back. Damon/Elena and the Ensemble.

Damon teaches Elena to feed but makes a mistake and does the one thing he'd promised himself he'd never do.

The Underworld is just like Storybrooke. Same clocktower, same library, same Granny's. Except - Killian. Killian, who wears his pirate leathers here, who swaggers down the street threatening townspeople and flirting with every woman he passes, who brandishes his hook around like the weapon it hasn't been in months. Killian, who doesn't recognize Emma at all. Post 5x11.

An alternate ending to 2x01. When Elena finds Damon fresh from Katherine's rejection will she push him away or let him in?

It was a deal to save her friend. It was never supposed to change her entire life. Nor was it supposed to change his, but that's the thing with plans, they don't always go quite how they're supposed to. [Set during 3x21 and then goes AU] Klaroline

It's been too long since they've been allowed to hold each other, since they've been in the same room together and not thrown words of hate at one another, since they've simply been Emma and Killian, no labels, no titles; just the two of them holding on and never letting go. Captain Swan - Post Underworld

She calls it the summer of her life. It's the one that changed his.

Cami knows nothing is going to change if she keeps beating her head against the unbreakable brick walls Klaus stacks between them.

The night Damon Salvatore met Elena Gilbert changed the course of their destinies forever. But just as the future made itself known, the past caught up with them to destroy it all. Together on the run, Damon finds himself falling for this girl. Hard. But, Damon Salvatore doesn't love and he won't let her change that. No matter how much his soul...his body begs him to give in.

This is set mid-Season 3 with an original plot that departs from canon. Damon has a new plan to kill Klaus. Elena's trying to win Elijah over to their side, get Stefan back on animal blood and figure out her growing feelings for Damon. Romance, action, angst, steam, something for everyone!

Post-Sacrifice. Missing D/E car scene on the way home. "Damn it, Elena!" Damon swore loudly, reaching for her and cupping her chin, giving her every opportunity to pull away before his lips descended on hers in a scorching, passionate kiss.

Damon is a NASCAR driver with a troubled past and present. Elena is the former love of his life. Both find themselves back in Mystic Falls and employed by Salvatore Racing. With a mountain of baggage between them, including a carefully guarded secret, it's only a matter of time before they have the "Big One." AU/AH; Damon; Elena

In the distant future/AU. "Sometimes they send one another postcards. Glossy tourist attractions on one side not withstanding, this is how they know where the other is. Of course, you can only say so much on a postcard. There is protection against saying too much." They were together & happy. Now they are apart. Is it possible to find one another again?

Elena wakes up in the woods not knowing where she was and how she got there. She goes home to find everything different from what she remembers. She had traveled not through time but through universes. And Worlds of Damons await her. Warning: Evil Klaus. Will have a twist in the end. Rated M for later.

After Elena's death, she's forced to make a choice she never wanted. That's when she learned she needed to die before her life could really begin. (AU from the season 3 finale.)

"He was with me." The words rushed out of Felicity's mouth in that out of control way they always did. She kicked herself mentally right after she said it... When Oliver's secret is about to be discovered, Felicity is forced to tell a lie to cover for him. Only problem is neither of them thought about the consequences of living a lie that could be turning into the truth. Olicity

Takes place in Stefan's Ripper absence in the summer before Elena's birthday and then an AU look at what could have happened had they chased after Stefan earlier and gotten caught despite warnings from Klaus not to do so. Dark in some ways, dirty in others. (D/E centric though there's a large undercurrent of their relationship(s) with Alaric) A/N inside.

What if Caroline wasn't asleep on the couch during Elena and Damon's conversation in Episode 2-05? What if Elena goes back to Stefan and sees Caroline already comforting him? DELENA.

A little bit of canon divergence where Emma and Deckhand Hook had one night together in Isaac's version of the EF. He doesn't remember her, but he's the only one in this world who wants to.

It was supposed to be a one-time thing, a mistake. But, when you're a vampire, life is blood and blood binds. Complete.

Damon and Elena have forever, but does that come at a cost Damon's not willing to pay?

As Emma's twenty-eighth birthday approaches and Henry becomes more and more distant, Regina decides trusting in her wicked abilities will no longer do – Emma Swan must be stopped from ever reaching Storybrooke. Lucky for her, a certain pirate would do just about anything for revenge. AU, Captain Swan.

"I don't even know your name." It's a weak protest at best, because she doesn't know his name, but she's come to know a piece of his soul, one mug of hot chocolate at a time. She knows what he looks like when he's struggling to hold on, because 2 a.m. isn't a time for secrets, and neither is the creeping dawn. Captain Swan, modern AU.

He knows there are witches and demons and dragons still tobe slain, but at this precise moment in time, he can't say he cares. Coda for "Poor Unfortunate Souls", contains vague spoilers for Shady Snowing. (For my BFF scribblecat27 for her birthday)

Damon and Bonnie's friendship through Elena's eyes.

A journey between Elena and Damon set in the spaces among and between seasons 4 and 5 and continues on from there. No sire bond, no hunt for the cure. Touches on many issues that I feel have been skimmed over in the show and I personally needed to work through. COMPLETE

Inconsolable over her mother's death, Caroline turns her back on Mystic Falls… and on her humanity. At their wits' end, her friends decide to seek help from the most unlikely of allies. An ally with a very personal interest in Caroline's humanity. Really just a little five-shot. Because it's Valentine's Day. ;)

Things have been calm in Mystic Falls for years. Damon and Elena have been peacefully raising their family in the town where they both grew up. But this is Mystic Falls. Things can change quickly…and never for the better. Sequel to "Bittersweet." (Not canon compliant)

Post-6x02. Elena moves on with her life and forgets everything about Damon and her... or does she? Will they find their way back to each other this time? Repost from my Tumblr.

1864 :: The Honeymoon - Damon introduces the art of lovemaking to his bride. D/E. Shameless smutty sequel to 'I Hate The Way You Love'. - COMPLETE -

All the air is punched violently from her lungs when his first three words are a question, one eyebrow arched high on his forehead in curiosity, "Who are you?" When the Snow Queen lodges a shard of glass deep in Killian's heart, how can Emma remind him of who he is when she cannot even remind him who she is?

Post-6x07. You can forget your past... but not your future. One-Shot. Damon/Elena

Last night, he almost lost his life to the Dark One. Dawn's grey light may not have reached the window of his lodgings as yet, but it's already a brand new day. SEQUEL to "If I Give it to You (will you keep it safe for me?)" Set post-411 but no spoilers for 4B.

With the race on for the cure, some will fall, some will rise, and some will go insane. Friendships end and new ones spark as secrets are revealed and what some believe to be the truth will turn out to be nothing but lies. While others may discover that they're not as different as they had believed. But will it matter if there is no world left? Set after 4x09. [Klaus/Caroline]

Two years later after their tryst in the woods, it's still astounding to see what the power of one red envelope from Caroline Forbes can do to the Almighty Klaus Mikaelson.

Later, her mother tells her that she literally flew up the spiral staircase of the clock tower, and Emma has to admit she can't actually remember her feet touching the steps. Post-411, missing scenes and expanded canon abound, spoilers for 411 galore.

Damon is killed in the future, and Elena is sent back in time to save him. When she finds herself in a past where Damon does not love her, and she has to fight for him and against an unexpected opponent to try and beat fate, she realizes she may have gotten more than she bargained for.

When this is all over, they are going somewhere hot. (Well, this is an odd one. It started out as an anon prompt (I hope you still approve, my "Killian goes swimming" anon) and then turned into a lot of other things, including angst and fluff and lots of sand. Set vaguely at the end of all things, with no spoilers apart from what we already know.)

When she reached rock-bottom after losing Damon, Elena made a choice. A choice she now regrets…or at least she thinks she does. Now she's faced with a web of memories that aren't her own. Will she be able to fix the damage she's caused? Will Damon let her? (season 6 compliant)

My attempt to make 6x07 promo scenes more solid and whole. Or just a way in which things in 6x07 could go around. Delena

Post 5x22 Damon & Bonnie watch their loved ones struggle with grief, unable to show they're still around, and a creature of darkness itself is determined to destroy the one thing that can save them–Damon and Elena's connection "Elena, I don't know if you can hear me, but I really need for you to" The unexpected can either save you or destroy you, what happens when it does both?

She's not looking at his mouth. She's looking through thirty-year old town records. She's definitely not looking at Killian Jones' mouth and thinking of the last time he'd kissed her. Inspired by the way those two adorable idiots were making eyes at each other in the Sheriff's station at the start of 405.

Post 5x22. Elena, Caroline, Stefan and Jeremy struggle to make sense of the loss of Damon and Bonnie. While some search for answers, others turn to dangerous and surprising new coping methods. As Alaric struggles with re-adjusting to the land of the living, Matt and Tyler struggle with a new reality in Mystic Falls. Delena/Steroline. Rated M.

There's a strange woman in her home, a beautiful blonde wearing a sparkly blue dress and holding a shepherdess' crook. It's not the weirdest situation Snow White has ever encountered, but still, it's right up there. (post-402) CAPTAIN SWAN with a side order of Snowing.

She wants to forget every blissful moment she's shared with Damon. It's her only option if she wants to live again. Now, it's up to Alaric whether or not her request is granted. Post 6x01.

In the Dark Hollow, Emma watched as her two potential loves nearly lost their shadows, and therefore their lives. What if Hook had not escaped unscathed? In a desperate bid to save him, Emma may have inadvertently bound them deeper than true love ever planned. Follows canon up to Season 3 Episode 07, then departs in my own merry way. Captain Swan. Emma POV

Storybrooke might be her home now, but that doesn't mean she wants to be still living with her parents when her baby brother is ready to go off to college. And then, of course, there's the pirate who gave up his ship but refuses to admit he misses having a real home. (The title is a quote from the beautiful (inside and out) Audrey Hepburn.

Post-5x22. Damon and Bonnie are dead and everyone is struggling with the loss. But not everyone is ready to let go. Damon/Elena, Jeremy/Bonnie, Stefan/Caroline, Damon/Bonnie friendship, lots of other friendships and guest appearances from The Originals.

Once again Elena has to choose between the Salvatore brothers and in one of their rare/non-existent peaceful moments Bonnie finds a spell that might just help her out. It's a little unpredictable though. With Caroline, Stefan and Damon there to witness it too, can Elena make the right choice with all their opinions flying around as they take a look at what they future could hold?

Post S5 finale. Yep, this is fairly dark. Elena's alone. Where does she go from here?

She asks him to stay. He tells her to leave. One of these days, one will have to give in...Right? Spoilers up to The Dinner Party 2x15. Now rated M for chapter 4.

Based on this tumblr prompt: The Snow Queen kills Killian and Emma brings him back with true love kiss and beautiful emotional smut after that? I went lighter on the smut, strong on the feels.

You're a grown man, Jones, he told himself. A birthday isn't that big of a deal anymore anyway. Lil sequel to "The Favor."

There's a side of Emma Swan that only Killian Jones is privy to. Warning: disgisting amounts of fluff as per usual.

Emma and Henry say goodbye to their friends and family and escape Storybrooke as Regina's magic defeats Pan's curse and sends everyone back to the Enchanted Forest. Or at least that was what was supposed to happen, but when Emma wakes up the next morning, she discovers that something went very wrong with the plan.

Damon returns for her birthday, but nothing is as it seems./ AU-ish after S3 / Slight angst and deals with slight drug use/

"I'm in the book now." To say that a lot has happened tonight is something of an understatement, but Emma is determined to make it all fit together on the same page. (Post-322. The title is stolen from the amazing Elvis Costello.) This is a Captain Swan story. There is mention of Outlaw Queen. (Constructive criticism is ALWAYS welcomed.) COMPLETE.

Blackbeard arrives in Storybrooke wielding a wicked curse that sends Hook back to his formerly villainous ways, taking Emma along for the ride. Can she still find the Hook she's come to care about under that dark exterior? Can he reclaim his inner hero and win Emma's heart, despite the havoc his actions have wrought? Rated M. WARNING: Dark themes and possible triggers.

Emma is still not adjusting too well to life in the Enchanted Forest. Killian adopts a new strategy and decides instead of trying to bring back what she misses to show her what she has now. In the same universe as 'I Miss Chinese'.

When he first started noticing it he thought it was an Emma thing. It was a Killian thing.

Post 4x22: A two-part, one-shot regarding how our favorite couple spent the summer before Elena left for college. Warning - Delena lemons!

Killian Jones, Emma Swan, and the rocky road to a relationship. Post 3x22, speculation for Season 4. CSSS present for Geekalogian

Caroline and Klaus wake up human in another reality due to a spell. Oh, and they're married, which is absolutely the worst, until it isn't.

Her parents may have fallen madly into true love in a day, but in the real world, these things take time. And it's a long way from feelings for someone to true love. Even when he's already fallen.

He was wrong. This isn't a last love, it is an old love, one deep rooted in centuries, an unshakeable bond that entwines them in each others' lives whether they want to or not, her only mistake was not realizing this decades earlier. Caroline/Klaus Post 4.24.

Over the 4 months it took to save Henry, Emma and Killian had 4 times in Neverland and once in Storybrooke, each accompanied by a different feeling. Desperation. Anger. Jealousy. Passion. And finally - Love. Captain Swan. 5 part series.

AU. Emma Swan doesn't do relationships, but her annoyingly attractive neighbor, Killian Jones, might change her views. Captain Swan.

When Emma can't sleep, she finds herself thinking about all the many sides that make up Killian Jones.

Third part in the Self Inflicted Wounds, Down a Crooked Path saga - It's been twenty five years since the events of DaCP and everything - and everybody - has changed. Spoilers S2 of TVD...and then it diverges. Greatly.

Tumblr Prompt: Captain Swan sort of collapsing into each other's arms after an exhausting ordeal.

Captain Swan: Fluffy fluff about Killian's pet names for Emma.

Captain Swan ficlet: Post season three finale, compilation of fluffy scenes speculating on where their relationship could go from that beautiful kiss outside Grannie's.

After defeating the Wicked Witch and returning to the Enchanted Forest, a prince arrives with the goal of winning Emma's hand in marriage. He attempts to snare her with a love potion, but Hook intervenes and winds up activating the potion himself, causing Emma to fall in love with him. The effect is temporary, but it's going to be a hell of a ride until it wears off. Captain Swan.

AU/AH /Life is wonderfully uncomplicated for Damon Salvatore. Take accident claims as a call center rep by day, charm his way into a new bed each night. Go to work, drink with friends, sex. Simple and straightforward and fun. Until a coworker, Elena Gilbert, makes him question whether some things are worth changing for. But is he the only one who needs to let go of a previous life?

Post-5x17. There is one journey that you can only take up by not leaving. Damon/Elena. One-Shot.

(au) Oliver saves Felicity from the terrifying monkey bars when he's just seven years old and spends the rest of their friendship trying to be the hero she deserves.

Captain Swan Ficlet: They start after Neal dies - horrendous nightmares that taunt Emma's sleeping hours. Tired and upset, she seeks comfort from one of the few constants in her life: Killian.

Post Storybrooke. Emma attends her first ball as princess and sneaks away when it all becomes too overwhelming. What she doesn't anticipate is to find a pirate in her bed.

There's a time and a place for everything, but when you're the Savior, it seems finding both those things at the same time can prove more than a little challenging. But Hook isn't the only one who loves a challenge. Sequel to "There's a First Time (for everything)"

His head is still spinning because it has been barely days since she first gave him any real hope and now, to think that she loves him…it makes him excited -like a young lad about to go on his first expedition out to sea. Epilogue to 'those dark moments before the dawn'.

Post 5x13-ish. Damon & Elena have to deal with pervasive consequences of the damage Katherine's caused, including the tragic turn of events that makes one of them a lethal threat to the other. Enlisting Enzo's help, Elena will stop at nothing to prevent the worst from happening, but is love enough to save all of them? Sometimes it's the right choices that turn out to be deadliest.

They called him crazy, insane even. People feared him and avoided him at any cost, even in the asylum. So what is Dr. Elena Gilbert supposed to do when she not only takes this insane monster as a patient, but falls in love with him, and him with her?

The first time she kisses him, it's in Neverland. The second time she kisses him, it's in New York. The third time she kisses him, it's in Storybrooke. Every single time, it means something. By the fourth time, it means everything. (This story was requested by and written for Scribblecat and her latest piece of art "Good Form")

In which Henry attempts to explain his crazy family to his girlfriend. Oh, and she doesn't know they are fairy tale characters. Captain Swan, Snowing, Tinkerfire, Outlaw Queen, Rumpbelle, Snowing.

"With the threat of their world crumbling, burning, and falling down around them, they don't hold back."- - war!times one-shot, a most likely darker take on season 3b. Rated a *hard* T.

What if Oliver and Felicity developed their personal relationship before their vigilante partnership? How would this not only change their dynamic but also the fate of everyone around them and Starling City itself? After Oliver takes the bullet-riddled laptop to her in 1x03, he never seeks out her technical support again. Instead, The Hood starts to go to her at night.

Post 4x23. After a blissful summer Damon & Elena find themselves surrounded by sad and dark secrets being revealed. While trying to deal with the regularly scheduled Mystic Falls drama of aftermaths and side-effects, they are unexpectedly confronted with Silas' new macabre plan that threatens to tear them apart forever. DAMON/ELENA, Klaus/Caroline, Jeremy/Bonnie.

Sequel To Blinded / After the blindfold comes off, what comes next for Damon and Elena? Should they stay in Mystic Falls and face the judgment of her friends and family, or is there someplace they can go to finally learn what it means to really be together? And more importantly, where they are free to love one another, with hearts and eyes wide open. / DELENA / AU Ssn 3

AU/AH/ 'You're different, not the guy I used to know' -Maybe you never really knew me- 'Yes I did'. She knew the depths of his soul, loved and accepted every part of him. Now he's lost and he doesn't think she can find him and she's not sure she wants to.

Damon learns that Elena almost kissed Stefan. He's angry and hurt, and it's going to take a lot more than an apology to get through to him.

Old family secrets lead Caroline on a journey of self-discovery and into the dark underbelly of New Orleans as Klaus works to reclaim his kingdom and rebuild the family he's slowly destroyed over the centuries. A TVD/The Originals crossover. Caroline/Klaus.

Oliver Queen has returned from an island of purgatory to avenge a city in need of justice. Finding balance in his life is made all the more difficult with a book of names to strike off and a remarkable woman to re-convince he's worth her time. Fighting crime as the Hood keeps him busy, but getting Felicity to fall in love with him? Now that'll take a whole new level of dedication.

After being med school sweethearts, Damon and Elena separate in order to go off and conquer the world of medicine. Years later, their paths cross once more. Oneshot for the A2A Christmas exchange.

What if the sire bond was the real "EPIC" Love story, fate, kismet, all of those things? Will Damon and Elena have an unbreakable bond? Could a true sire bond bring even bigger surprises? And what part will Klaus play as they discover the true meaning of the sire bond? Sometimes canon, but mostly not...Team Delena COVER IMAGE BY FASHIONISTA1988 LIV IS BACK!

When Elenas' life has been consumed by addictions, can anyone save her?- OOC,AU. *WARNING* Story contains strong language, substance abuse, graphic smut/lemons. For mature audiences only. Consider yourself warned.

AU take on 4x23. Damon faces his first obstacle as Elena's boyfriend as he helps her come to terms with the loss of her brother. Rated M for smut. Features angst aplenty, with light dabbles of fluff.

Damon thought he was doing the best thing for Elena by breaking it off before she went to college. He couldn't have been more wrong. Canon-ish.

ONE-SHOT / Post 5x10 / Immediately following his breakup with Elena, harsh reality begins to set in for Damon. Because when you've devoted your life to loving another, how do you continue once you've pushed them away? And in the end, what does it take to right your wrongs once you are truly honest with yourself? Could a Christmas lie be the key to forgiveness? / DELENA

Killian Jones learns to cuddle

While the rest of the gang celebrates leaving Neverland behind for good, Emma and Hook partake in a little celebration of their own below deck. A steamy little one-shot for Captain Swan fans. Hook x Emma. May contain season 3 spoilers.

Caroline and Elena have a fight – it doesn't end as soon as either one of them would like.

It's cold. And late. And starting to snow. And she really hates New Year's Eve. *tumblr prompt holiday one-shot*

Emma's had a horrible day and just wants to drink her night away, but her night only gets worse when she sees Killian drinking and enjoying himself with Ruby. This makes her deal with feelings that she doesn't want to ignore anymore. Post Neverland. One-shot.

He could only imagine how different it would be to kiss her softly, to cup her face and lean in slowly so she understood. He could only picture being about to wrap his arms around her waist as she smiled that elusive open smile. Set after saving Neal, Killian thinks about what could have been since he's under the impression his chances with Emma are shot to hell. [One-shot]

Felicity has a date, and Oliver realizes he knows very little about her personal life. But when he starts asking questions, he gets a little more information than he was expecting.

After saving Henry the group are about to set off to find their way home from Neverland when Neal turns up alive, causing Emma to question her options. Pairings are Emma&Hook and Emma&Neal (but is overall a Captain Swan fic, although will be angsty). Rated M for future chapters.

There was a split-second where Emma sighed in relief before suddenly she felt him shift, one arm shooting up to snake around her waist, pulling her flush against his chest as he spun them around. Her back hit the thin cloth covering his bed and she grunted at the impact as his body pinned hers down. Set during 3x02 Unapologetically Captain Swan

In every house, there's an art studio. And as time goes by, those art studios just might be their favourite places in the world. Snippets of Klaus and Caroline throughout the years. Oneshot.

He is always on her mind and she is just too tired to fight it anymore.

AU: Felicity and Tommy deal with the aftermath of the earthquake in the Glades. (follow-up fic to The Days That Never Came, but since it's so AU, I made it separate. rated for language.) Will be multi-chapter.

The Boarding House is feeling a little full these days, forcing Damon to dip into his endless well of creativity to see that Elena's dreams come true.

It starts as the taste of him hits her tongue and before all is said and done tears and blood have been spilled and lives have been lost... but most importantly none of them will ever be the same. AU from 220 - The Last Day. Stand alone USG prequel.

Damon and Elena have the house to themselves – late night chatting ensues. Post 4x23.

What makes someone feel? Why would they want to? Elena's humanity is off, Damon struggles to help her, but maybe she's not the one they should be worried about. Sacrifices are made, grudges are held, and plots are set in motion that threaten to destroy Mystic Falls completely. Some things just can't be taken back. Post-4x15

Damon decides that Elena can choose for herself - so they team up to find the Cure. AU from the end of 4x17, with a re-write of 4x18. Damon/Elena and Rebekah along for the ride. Mature rating for bad language, vampire violence, and references to switched-off sexy times.

Elena knows now, after all this time, that it was futile to fight against the connection they had, the thin, yet durable, threads that drew them to each other. She no longer has any desire to pull away, and she knows that he doesn't either.

The nights aboard the ship could be cold, and on their way to Neverland, the timeless land, Emma found out that the melody of the sea was too hard to resist. Rated M for a reason.

In the fallout of Katherine's betrayal [Fool Me Once 1.14], Damon is back at his hedonistic best. Stefan goes to Europe to track Katherine down before matters escalate, leaving Damon in Mystic Falls to watch over Elena. As Elena and Damon grow inexorably closer, she struggles to deal with the reality that Stefan might not be the only Salvatore brother with a place in her heart.

Damon finds Elena directly after the events of season 3, and they have a conversation concerning the decision she needs to make, along with all the things that should be said before she decides. Expanded from the original one-shot. Damon/Elena. Spoilers through the end of season 3. Rating bumped up to be safe.

She had just needed a break. She had just needed some air. The castle walls were suffocating, the grounds confining. So she had fled. Letting the kid know she was leaving for a bit, Emma had easily slipped past the recently appointed guards that attempted to keep diligent and careful watch over the newly returned royal family... *PROMPT-RETURN TO ENCHANTED FOREST FROM SB RAIN SMUT*

[3-Parts] Oliver and Felicity make their public debut as a couple. It's both as difficult and as easy as he expected.

A late contribution for one of the Summer of Olicity "Family" prompts. The legal consequences of Oliver and Felicity's nocturnal activities become all too real and they are left with only one option.

Damon drives Elena home after the Miss Mystic Falls Pageant. A missing scene from 4x07. One-Shot.

When Felicity is attacked, Oliver realizes that he knows almost nothing about her; in the course of helping her deal with what's happened, he's determined to prove that they are friends - despite Felicity's insistence that it's too complicated. The problem, he soon discovers, is that he wants to be more than just her friend.

Who says only Elena was affected by the sire bond?

My take on what happens after the S2 finale. Much Delena for your pleasure, slow-burning since I don't think she'd just kick Stefan to the curb w/o a backward glance, and b/c I actually believe she DOES love them both. M for sexiness and violence.

She's a piano-playing graduate student who's writing a historical novel. He's the new professor in the History department who has gone out of his way to avoid music since he was a boy. A story about choice, transformation, and the people who inspire others to do both.

When the crew of the Jolly Roger happen upon Neal in Neverland, Hook wars with his feelings and the urge to 'fight for what he wants ' when he sees a depressed Emma growing closer with the father of her child. Angsty Captain Swan/Swanfire oneshot.

Tragedy strikes at Tommy Merlyn's funeral

Emma likes to sleep with her window open. She never quite realized who she'd be inviting in.

Even though everything has changed, she and Stefan are happy together...or are they? One day Elena can't pretend any more.

Damon/Elena, semi-canon after 3x14: But this kiss is painfully different, but still one of the most beautiful things she's ever experienced.

He needs her, the joke is that everything he's ever wanted is split between two woman with the same face. It's too painful to think about this future he's painted, she'll do anything to make it stop, she needs him. My response to the garbage that was 3x20

Damon and Elena's slow romance as seen through the most unlikely pair of eyes. Teddy's perspective.

Damon has a request. Elena's not sure she's into it. Oneshot, a little silly.

This takes place in and after 'A Few Good Men' *Note* There are parts of this fic that are silly and at times it's a parody of what could've happened. It's AU and if characters are OOC...don't flame me cause that's what fanfic is about. *Smut Warning*

Just a random 'delena' clip about the scene between Katherine and Damon at the end of the finale, but with Elena and Damon instead.

Damon visits Elena of the eve of Founder's Day; Baking, talking, and dancing ensue, secrets revealed. *Just behind the playfulness, she could sense something else, a hollow longing, an ache that throbbed just below the surface of those contemptuous eyes.*

This takes place during the epi "Bloodlines" It is my take on what could have happened on Damon and Elena's road trip. **Smut Warning**

Damon's drunk and she looks like Katherine. Elena's drunk and he smells like Stefan.

She really doesn't want to think about what would happen to Damon if people found out he's the one causing the mayhem. She tells herself it's just because she's a compassionate person, and not because she cares for him at all. Damon/Elena Oneshot.
