Iolaus surprises Nebula with his return from the dead but she has some surprises of her own.

During a break at the Academy, Hercules and Iolaus visit Thebes and run into some of Iolaus' old friends.

Autolycus has gotten himself in a spot of trouble

A sequal to A Piece of Parchment

What does that piece of parchment say!

Hercules, Iolaus, Xena and Gabrielle are celebrating the new year.

Iolaus is accused of steeling.

Set between the Xena episodes "Staring death in the eye" and "Lydia." It always bothered me that the events from Be Deviled were never really wrapped up. This attempts to bring them to a satisfactory conclusion.

Strife and Deimos train, and Discord observes.

Two times love screwed Discord up and one time it didn't. Discord/Deimos.

The three men in Discord's life all touch her in different ways, and affection from her rival Deimos is the most baffling of all. Discord/Deimos.

Ares angrily asks Aphrodite to remove the love spell she cast on Discord and Deimos. (Discord/Deimos.)

Deimos sure is something, but he's nothing like his brother Phobos. The Olympians all comment on how different the twin Gods of Fear are.

Discord and Deimos fight over who gets to keep a phoenix egg, and an irritated Aphrodite is caught in the middle. Discord/Deimos.

Iolaus sobered. "Remember that fight a few days ago? The bandits? The one that grazed you was using some sort of poison on his blade." "Well...that explains why I feel weak," Hercules admitted. "But you...Iolaus, you look like a bad day in Tartarus." CHARACTERS: Hercules, Iolaus.

"Hesfie, do you know one reason I married you?" Aphrodite's voice was calm...too calm. "Because you love me?" "Because I knew you had no PINK in your forge!" Aphrodite shrieked. "And if you ever EVER plan on touching me again, you'll get this changed and NOW! Otherwise, I'll open the biggest can of whoop-ass you've ever seen and it'll have YOUR name on it!"

Iphicles watched as the hunter nimbly worked his way through the crowd towards his partner. If those two don't recognize what's in front of them soon, I swear I'm getting Jason to help me pound some sense into them. The Corinthian king suddenly smiled. That might actually be fun. CHARACTERS: Iolaus, Hercules, Jason, Iphicles, Hestia

"Jason said a lot of people came," Iolaus recalled. Hercules laughed again. "Yeah, including half the women in Greece," he teased. "All sobbing and weeping. Even Autolycus was impressed." CHARACTERS: Iolaus, Jason, Hercules

"Herc, you remember what you told me about walking down this road? And maybe someday finding a place where you'd want to stop?" Iolaus asked. When the demigod nodded, he wearily smiled. "I haven't found that place either." CHARACTERS: Iolaus, Hercules

"So explain to me why my sweet-natured daughter, Alcmene, married a traveling bard and is never around and I have to contend with Lilith...the feisty one." CHARACTERS: Iolaus

Catching his partner's eyes, Hercules mouthed "mighty one" with a teasing glint in his eyes. He started to say something when he caught the warning look Alcmene shot him. Then she gave a similar look to Hades who had covered his mouth with one dark-gloved hand. CHARACTERS: Iolaus, Alcmene, Hercules, Hades, Apollo.

Hercules watched in confusion as Iolaus scrambled to his feet and disappeared into the kitchen. He returned in a few moments carrying a wineskin. "I need something stronger than water for this," he muttered as he sat back down. CHARACTERS: Hercules, Iolaus

Hades shivered at the sight of the pink and gold energy left from the Goddess of Love's disappearance. He spun around, shaking his head. 'Who knew that 'Dite could gamble that effectively' WARNING: M/M sexual encounter. CHARACTERS: Hercules, Iolaus, Aphrodite, Hades, Ares, Hera, Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, Hermes, Hesphaestus, Apollo.

Hercules looked down at Iolaus' bloody arm. "Iolaus! You were just supposed to cut your arm! Not slash it open almost to the bone!" "Now you tell me," Iolaus groaned. WARNING - Scene with domestic violence against a child. CHARACTERS: Hercules, Iolaus, Alcmene, Skouros, Erythia

"Maybe if we move the wagon under the trees and push the forge over there...we could tie a rope around the forge and loop it over one of the branches...and lift the forge into the wagon." "Iolaus, the nearest tree is over 200 yards away," Dimitrius pointed out. "Move into town!" WARNING: M/M story. Characters: Hercules, Iolaus, Jason, Medea, Alcmene.
