A collection of Caskett one shots.

One of the last things true crime writer Richard Castle expected when he took a meeting with convicted murderer Kate Beckett was to be sent on a quest for proof of her innocence, the other was to fall in love with her. A Castle AU. Written 2012. Revised 2016.

One "missed moment" from each and every episode of Castle. Moments that I think could have taken a slightly more M-rated route.

"What's past is prologue." -William Shakespeare, The Tempest, Act II Scene I. An AU season six Castle story.

It's quiet. Just the rustle of fabric, quiet steps on the carpet and the soothing whisper of his voice. It's the small moments.

Just when Kate feels her life is hitting rock bottom, fate throws her right in the middle of Downtown Manhattan, on that fateful September 11, 2001. Underneath the rubble of her life, and her city, will Kate be to find hope, peace and love? AU **HIATUS**

Because technically they've been "dating" since long before they decided to make it official. A series of one-shots of all of Castle and Beckett's non-dates.

Kate drowns her sorrows in alcohol, and ends up calling Castle over. Angsty till around chapter six, then it's just fun. Chapter 5 and on rated M.

Kate Beckett is the new nanny for Richard Castle's young daughter, trying to pay back loans and attending Community College as a way to build up credits for her entrance into the Police Academy. She takes the job as delightful Alexis's nanny thinking that it would just be that; a job. But she finds herself falling for her charge's father and finds his affections returned. AU

When Castle gets recruited to go undercover at a strip club, will Beckett be able to resist him?

She was naïve to believe that their relationship would be easy. She was different, and that was the problem. AU thank you to dtrekker for the lovely cover art.

"There would be no unexpected sound of her key in the lock. No sound of stilettos across the floorboards. No laughing greeting or warm embrace or welcoming kiss. Not any more." -My entry for the 2013 Castle Hiatus Ficathon

Co-authored by cartographical, chezchuckles, and muppet 47. Something of a post-ep for Recoil. 'As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.'

In the quiet room there was no one awake to hear her almost inaudible whisper of 'I love you too.' When Detective Beckett wakes from her surgery with a rather puzzling case of amnesia she is left wondering about many things, especially her last name. Set at the end of season three.

Young Kate Beckett had looked for a night to forget only to find it turned into one she would remember for the rest of her life. AU

AU: Kate is going through a bad divorce. After a big fight one day, she decides to go for a run to sort out her emotions, having no idea who she was about to stumble upon.

To the girl at the table near the back of the library...

A four-year-old, a mall, and finding something you didn't even know you'd lost. Sometimes all it takes is a chance encounter for everything to fall into place. AU with echoes of canon.

Inspired by a fanvid by Half0utLoud and pe4alhar. It was supposed to be easy. A visit to a suspect and asking him some questions. Just a regular job. But this particular visit turns out to be anything but such for Castle and Beckett.

He never thought it could hurt like this. AU for 5x05, "Probable Cause."

A baby, a funeral and a mission. Mindless fluff set February of season six, spoiler free.

They haven't spoken in three days. Not since the night they'd shouted at each other over the phone, the two hundred miles of earth between them fracturing, a chasm spreading wide and threatening to swallow them whole.

One-shots of married and family life between Rick and Kate. Something sweet and fluffy for those who like "aww"-moments. *Chapter 62 up* "Look, I messed up by not telling you and I'm sorry for that." He stepped closer, his face taut. "But I'm not going to apologize for trying to keep my family safe."

What happens when Castle asks Kate "Have you ever kissed another woman?" Caskett story with Slashy elements. Set during season five. The story is mine, but the characters and settings are not. They belong to Andrew Marlowe and company, with whom I am unaffiliated.

It's 1998 when Katherine Beckett and Richard Rodgers meet, and when he's in College and she's still in High school things can get complicated with the folks and him trying to build his career as a successful mystery writer.

Castle and Beckett receive a tip off that leads them to a alley way. But something happens in the alley that changes everything. This story is rated M because it contains subject matter that is for mature readers. it was written to increase awareness and communication about the subject. It does not contain smut.

Two years after Always, Caskett are happily married but what happens when an accident destroys the walls they've gotten past in two years? And what happens when there's more than just Rick and Kate that are affected by this disaster? Disclaimer: I don't own Castle, never have and I never will!

Castle and Beckett in undercover positions of the naughty kind. 6. Let's Just F*** It Out

There were so many things he wanted to say to her but that wasn't a part of their relationship. So he wrote her letters instead, hid them away, never intending for her to read them. Until one day, Kate stumbled upon them by mistake. Complete.

Well, she said it and it was wonderful, but before she said it, the possibilities were seemingly endless; and thus this series of one-shots was born. - - SPOILERS FOR THE WHOLE SHOW.

"I love you." A set of eight semi-interconnected one shots set at the end of season four and into season five.

Castle and Beckett are trapped in a very small space together and both have to fight their sexual attraction while in a dangerous situation. Hotness/smut ensues. (Based on the kink meme prompt: No existing relationship, in a tight/confined space, inadvertent frontage leads to orgasms) Set during season 4 before 47 seconds.

Speak a new language so that the world will be a new world - Rumi

A collection of unrelated ficlets.

'All day long I can hear people talking out loud, but when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd. Old Mr. Webster could never define, what's being said between your heart and mine. The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall, you say it best when you say nothing at all.' A Three-Shot. COMPLETE.

Set 24 years into the future, Rick and Kate's son, RJ, a student and budding journalist wants to interview his mother for a story, the life story of NYPD Captain Katherine Beckett.

A whole year he'd loved her secretly from a distance, no matter how many times she'd pushed him away, he still loved her. She hadn't been ready yet that night to say them back. And he didn't push. Probably just glad she'd finally chosen him over her mother's killer. Traded her past for the present; perhaps even a future with him.

He needs to find better hiding places…She needs to stop accidentally finding things.

Castle and Beckett deliciousness, at one of my favourite locations. Rated M for a very, very good reason. Complete. :)

Those warm, heavy, "I want a baby" feelings didn't scare Kate so much anymore. Shamelessly fluffy pregnancy fic. Set beyond s5. Rating subject to change

Starting in 4x15 'Pandora'. Castle and Beckett find themselves in a sticky situation once again- locked in the trunk of a car. What if Beckett hadn't managed to get the trunk open and the scene were a little... different?

Castle & Beckett enjoying their first trip to his Hamptons home. Murder-free! Inspired by 5x04, "Murder, He Wrote".

"She was ridiculously gorgeous, that much was a fact. But there was something about her, he couldn't quite put his finger on what exactly, that made her stand out even more. He watched as her thumb caressed the cover of the book gently, and was startled to find sadness in her eyes for a moment." AU.

Castle and Beckett play 20 questions. Multi chapter fic.

It's a difficult day and she expects as much, but what she doesn't expect is that in the end the joy will outweigh the sadness.

"Fiction reveals truth that reality obscures"- Ralph Waldo Emerson. A series of unrelated one-shots by prompt. Each (hopefully) written within an hour. More to come! Prompt 7: The couples make a bet on who can go without you-know-what the longest.

"Maybe it's the exhaustion, maybe it's the way her heart is racing once again at his proximity, or maybe it's just that his words have always gotten to her, reached her in ways that no one else's can." Three-shot based off of Pandora/Linchpin. Now complete.

Castle and Beckett defined. (Inspired by the book of the same name).

"He's beautiful," Rick says. "Yes, he is," Kate agrees, softly stroking the tip of her finger along the boy's cheek. "Hey, baby."

She fell in love with his words long before she fell in love with him. A collection of Spiral Bound outtakes.

One minute they were on a break, the next... Had someone told them that their lives would turn out like this they would have laughed. Then again, our lives can change irrevocably in a split second, throwing everything we held secure to the wind.

ii. They had an unspoken agreement to not share details of their sex lives before they got together. But if he wants, she'll share.

"Who was the best you ever had? Before me, of course." Beckett and Castle talk about Royce.

This is my guilty pleasure, a caskett truth or dare story, not for the young ones.

"Castle... thank you for being there." [Tag for 3x17 - "Countdown"]

CASKETT. Beckett wants answers about Castle's women.

sometimes she just needs him to do this. fills for prompts from the 2012 kink meme on livejournal.

Aftermath from Countdown: After Josh finds Kate at the 12th, they probably went to her place. Kate's emotions are running high from what she went through, but will Josh realize that? Pure smut in Ch 1-2, but not C/B smut. Castle comfort later, but builds on first two chapters.
