    Summary

    "He's just like-"
    “Like you were, when you first came here?” Xavier’s gaze was far too piercing. It sliced Logan to the bone, and he could feel his skin prickle where phantom blades cut through it.
    “Exactly,” Logan growled, refusing to let Xavier see just how much that bothered him. “That’s why the kid’s dangerous.”
    “That’s why he needs help,” Xavier pressed gently, as if he was chiding Logan for his hostility. “And that is why you are the best equipped to help him.”
    __________________________
    In which Logan accidentally volunteers to help babysit the latest addition to the Xavier Institute, a strange new student that was quite literally left on their doorstep. However, this student isn't quite a "student" at all; it is a weapon left without a handler. Unfortunately, the new mutant now thinks Logan is his handler. Even more unfortunately, Logan knows more about this situation than he would like to.

    AKA an AU that embellishes on the fact that Kurt was being used as a weapon by Stryker at the beginning of X2, turning the situation into a recovery scenario that ends up helping both Kurt and Logan overcome their Weapon X conditioning.

    Summary

    For the DGHDA Big Bang 2017.

    “...Very long story short, until yesterday, it hailed as my greatest case: one of deception, danger, double-crosses, and an all-round perversion of high emotion and - dare I say it - romance…”

    What do horses, robots, time-travel, false identities, alternate universes, flagrant homosexuality and the University of Cambridge have in common? Probably not much, but it's all Todd Brotzman has to work with after he falls through a hole in space and time, arriving at St. Cedd’s College for the first day of Svlad Cjelli (not yet notoriously known as Dirk Gently). There's a case to be solved, but it refuses to start. For both Todd and Svlad, and Dirk and Farah, events unfold in exactly the way you'd expect at Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.

    (This work is canon-compliant as per the end of Season 1. It refers to canon set out in the two Dirk Gently novels, the Dirk Gently 2010 TV Series, the Dirk Gently Comics "The Salmon of Doubt" and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, but none of that is needed to understand the work.)

    Sobbing, falling to my knees, walking straight into the ocean and never returning.

    Summary

    "I am taking your clothes off," Henry tells him, catching Walt's hazy, wide gaze. A ghost of a smile crosses over Walt's face.

    "Been a while since you said that to me," he says, slow and slurred, but it means Walt's coherent–for now–and Henry huffs, hands already working on Walt's jacket. 

    "Yes, well," Henry says, tossing the jacket on the floor in front of the fire. "It would put a damper on that if you died of hypothermia."

     

    Or,
    Henry finds Walt on the mountain, and everything that happens after.
