I have a lot of random little ideas that pop into my head - so this will be a collection of all those little stories. Each chapter will be a stand alone story (unless stated otherwise). Some will be from prompts, others will be just random ideas.

Rick finds out about Kate's interview a few days earlier and decides it's time to stop pretending to be less than he is. All standard disclaimers apply. T rating for now, may go to M latter so you've been warned. Caskett ending or at least cliffhanger if I break this up into multiple parts.

Castle & Beckett try to make their way through a very different world. AU.

Authors Note: This is AU; Kate's mom is alive and happily married to Jim. The experiment of Kate and Rick living together is killed when she takes the Fed job 7 months into their coupling, only to return to New York 13 months later, BUT Rick isn't there. I don't own Castle; I only use the characters for amusement purposes, except the ones I create. CASKETT ENDING NOT GUARANTEED

Richard Castle was fearing the day it would come. But he need not worry any longer because it has already arrived. He was drawing a blank! He was blocked big time. His only hope is to get away and try to get his mojo back. So a trip abroad should help. Will it? Only one person can help him, his Muse.

What if Kate Beckett fought back a little harder when Roy suggested that Richard Castle be allowed to follow her around. She didn't want him to Join her team. He was a Jackass and would likely get someone killed,

Kate had never planned to see him again but now, she would have to see him. She had to see Castle, for the first time in weeks, and talk to him. Starting in the summer before S2 and then going AU from there.

Takes place after early S8 breakup and goes AU from there. Rick separates from Kate, and she is enticed to join Jackson's world. The duo is brought back together years later due to a professional encounter between Kate and a very different Alexis. There is a Casket ending though not with the passion most would like. I do not own Castle; I just play with the characters.

rework of Season 4? 'That wall inside.'

Part 4 of the PRIVATE EYES series. Former CIA officer Rick Castle and NYPD Detective Kate Beckett try to enjoy their honeymoon, but unseen forces work to pull them back into the world of spies, assassins, and sinister organizations. AU. Spy Castle. Castle Ficathon 2022.

"Sorry. I didn't know." Something in his tone causes the "now you do" she had prepared in response to die on her lips. It prickles the back of her mind, the cold wash of guilt she hears in just four words, and she hits the emergency stop on the elevator control panel and whirls on her shadow. "What'd you do?" - An alternate look at A Death in the Family. Pre-Caskett

An AU story set in mid to late season five.

AU. Kate opens up a bakery after being shot. She meets a customer named Richard Castle. Sets place around the year of season 4/5. (It's been years since my last fanfic, but for JJ I came back out of "retirement").

It's Castle's birthday, and one of his gifts is that his little girl is moving back home…without Pi in her life. He didn't think he could be happier. (Very AU after the May 3 episode and finale. LOL One of those stories that was intended to stop around chapter 3 or 4 but wandered off on its own.) Involves family, some excitement, and so much fluff I should be ashamed.

A summer ficathon entry: Kate and Rick on their honeymoon after the events of my last story, A Guiding Light. The dragon has been slayed and there is life to be led. But can it ever be that easy for these two? AU after events of 6x22.

Kate is forced to confront a decision from her past. Set in early Season 5, before the Hamptons trip. Beckett and Castle are in the early days of their relationship, will they survive this new revelation? AU.

An AU story during the early stages of Kate and Rick as a couple

An entry for the Castle Ficathon 2022. Castle, its locations, and its characters are the property of ABC Studios Productions and Andrew W. Marlowe. All other characters are from my imagination.

An AU story where Kate is lying in her hospital bed after being shot at Montgomery's funeral. She is dying. But help intervenes in the form of a Celestial Mechanic who takes over her recovery. Not always to Kate's liking.

Ebullition by Castlefan6 Authors Note: This is AU; Kate's mom was never attacked and is still alive! This resulted in Kate's dad never falling into alcoholism and Kate is quite close to both her parents although having her own apartment. ebullition - a sudden outburst of emotion or violence:

An AU story that takes place about 5 years after Kate's undercover assignment at Belmont Women's Prison.

There comes a time in every person's life when they come to a fork in the road, and must choose which path to travel. But they never know where the choice will take them. So what happens when Alexis faces the fork much earlier than expected? Will she choose a path that makes sense? Or one full of all sorts of twists and turns? Only fate will tell.

A season 5 AU story where Kate is recruited to go undercover at a women's prison to get information from the girlfriend of a Russian gang leader.
