I am starting to migrate my stories to AO3 but, for now, here is a story where I imagine Ressler lost his memory and needs to adapt to the last 6 years where his life has significantly changed. A Keenler fic as usual.

Imagine if Ressler did marry Audrey, they did have kids and Liz and Tom had Agnes... Liz and Ressler got to remain partners and close friendson the TF.

"God. It really is muggy, isn't it?" Lizzy fished a piece of ice out of her glass and ran it from the pulse point on her throat down to the hollow of her neck, humming with pleasure at the cooling sensation; Red swallowed his mouthful of tea, his eyes wide as he followed the progress of the melting ice cube. [Lizzington, S6 if the prison arc never happened, 2/3]

one stolen moment, one trauma response, was destined or doomed to change the course of everything

"What changed, Elizabeth? When did it become more important that I die as quickly as possible rather than give up my secrets? You know most of them will die with me. Aren't they much more tempting than ending my life?" [Lizzington, Vague-ish S8 Spoilers, 6/7]

Lizzington. Red returns to Liz's life in 2013. She remembers him; their shared history is quite different from the show. Alt universe. Liz is not Red's daughter (obviously). She's 10 years older than on the show. Her history differs a bit. Hints of E. Edward Grey in Red. Reviews/comments are much appreciated. Thank you!

The events of 8x22 reversed. What if Elizabeth actually listened to Red and actually killed him instead of backing out and being killed herself.

Ein paar Gedanken von Ressler und Keen und ein seltsames Gespräch.

Stories for the Febressuary event and themes for 2022 on tumblr and instagram. Always with a Keenler spin (sometimes friendship, sometimes romance).I am going to start to migrate my stories to AO3 so please look for them there.

My fix-it-fic for the end of Season 8 of The Blacklist, where Liz was killed. What if Liz hadn't died? I initially wrote most of this a few weeks after 822 aired. Then I shelved it for months, two thirds written, unable to finish it. But I finished it today in time for the last day of Febressuary, in which we celebrated Donald Ressler for an entire month.

In this short AU one-shot, Liz's death and everything that happened after it is relegated to Ressler's nightmares. Written for the 24th day of Febressuary on Tumblr (our favorite Ressler AU head canons)

What if Liz met up with Ressler that night at Bentham Park instead of driving away? An alternate ending to episode 8.12 "Rakitin," written for Week Two of Febressuary 2022 - "Heart Week" using the prompt "You're welcome."
