Inspired by Kary's Addek thought of the day and the general silver-anniversary McMarriage zeitgeist, here's present-day Derek, with help from Addison, putting together the pieces of the past.

"You take other people's men." That one line from Naomi to Addison in the fourth season of Private Practice grew into this alternate, happy Addek universe, in which they started a family in residency, never separated, and all is sweet and ordinary until their children start asking questions. First story in the Missyverse, inspired by PeachFresca & Meadowlark12. Complete!

In late season two, everyone has something to hide. Some lucky people have even more. ADDEK bumpy-road endgame, inspired by ThrawnsGirl's request for a different kind of abortion reveal and an anonymouse's request for a season-two Addek baby. COMING SOON - now's the time for a reread! UP NEXT once I process Addison's episode this week.

When Addison remembers that she made a reservation at an exclusive new restaurant for Derek's birthday, she convinces him to fly back to NY for the weekend. Then the flight gets interesting. And then they land and things get even more interesting. Somewhat silly, usually smutty response to LS's request (Addek celebrating a birthday together). A few chapters left!

Except this time they leave halfway through, bound for Connecticut and a Montgomery family emergency that makes it impossible for them to keep ignoring their problems.

Other canon characters will appear if I continue. Please read author's notes at the beginning of the story for details and warnings. Updated July 2020.

It's mid-Season 2, and Addison and Derek aren't exactly communicating well. Some savvy, wise friends suggest it would help if they put themselves in each other's shoes. Fine. But they didn't realize it meant *literally.* Addison/Derek reconciliation in lighthearted, freaky form. Contains both body-switching and Addek feels. UPDATED July 2020!

Upset with their current assignments, they began to bicker until Scully can no longer handle it. Fighting in the rain... no umbrella...

What if just one thing changed? If nothing changed, everything's the same, but still ... one thing changed? Season 2 Addek based on a flip-the-script prompt, set at the start of "Let it Be," episode 8 of Season 2, when Derek and Addison get a visit at Seattle Grace from their past. ON HIATUS ... for now.

While going out for dinner, Scully runs into an ex and Mulder valliantly pretends to be her husband. However, that little lie traps them into having to play the Newlywed Game in front of a bunch of strangers and they have to navigate admitting feelings they haven't even admitted to themselves.

While on a particularly stressful case, Mulder tries to balance out the bad with some good.

Of Mulder's many obsessions, Scully's freckles was one of them. MSR.

Inspired by the question of when Addison first saw Derek's trailer. Canon-compliant one-shot set in the present day. Addison-focused, past-Addek, other characters featured.

It's divorce mediation day for the Shepherds. Time to sign the papers. It's simple, Addison and Derek are just going to split everything down the middle. "The only thing that gets a little complicated," said the mediator in 3x05, "is the real estate." A flip of "Oh, the Guilt," that grew into its own beast of a story instead. Two parts but I'm posting both at the same time.

The Shepherds are forced to face their troubled marriage head-on - with the island's help, can they save it? *Addek* Savvy & Weiss! COMPLETE

Reeling from her parents' revelations during their visit to California, Addison somehow opens the door to a world that shouldn't exist at all – with no idea how she got there or how to get out.

When an unexpected tragedy happens on the day of their divorce, Addison and Derek's plans to cut ties with each other take a surprising sharp turn.

He met his ex-wife's eyes and gave her a soft smile. "Spend the night with me, Addie?" Addison/Derek one-shot set to Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'."

She was the person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with and that was why he married her. When Derek called out, "where is she?" in 2x17 he had been looking for Meredith, but then holding Addie in his arms reminded him of who she is and how much he still loves her no matter what they're going through. One shot.

Set during the S2 finale, I reinterpret and change the outcome of the episode so that it is geared toward Derek and Addison being together. There's discussion of punch spiking, more dancing than ever necessary at a hospital prom.

Ellie Grey is a new resident at Seattle Grace...but will that fact that she's both Addisons best friend and Merediths sister make things harder for everyone? Chapter 56 is up! Read and Review please! Addek incase you were wondering.

A/U. Set long before the affair Derek and Addison explore the promise of a mostly sunny afternoon spent in the park with close friends. A special trunk monkey makes an appearance and Uncle Mark gives horsey rides. It's just pointless fluff. Derek/Addison.

Finished, at last [Chapters 7 & 8 added]. A sequel to [A Rush of Blood to the Head]: A continuation of a quite chimerical storyline in which Derek and Addison had a child earlier in their marriage. Bailey, Meredith, and Mark are there, too. Enjoy!
