Summary
An alternate universe of my beloved Out of the Deep that takes place entirely in the world of the Fin-kin. Castiel is still the bright-fin we know and love from OotD. But Dean? He’s a fang-fin; a violent breed of fin-kin who want nothing more than to bring war to Castiel's colony - or so he's been led to believe.

Summary
“Well,” Trent said, and smiled self-deprecatingly. “He accused me of having an affair.”
“Oh come on now. That’s bull shit.” Now Ted was angry; you could tell because he dragged the word bullshit out into two long pulls, like a mouthful of licorice. “Who the hell would you be having an affair with?”
“Ah.” Trent kept the smile in place. “Well, that’s the part you won’t believe.”

Summary
What’s really a problem is this: Ted Lasso has never lied to Trent before.
He’s been evasive and circuitous. He’s been silly and distracting. He’s been tangential and vague. But he has never outright lied—a rare thing, a precious thing. Something Trent has begun to look forward to, to desire as something unique in the sordid little corner of the world he’s chosen to ply his pen.
So standing in the Crown & Anchor and realizing that Ted Lasso is lying is—new, and terrible, and strangely devastating in a personally subjective way he will not examine at this moment.
(Trent Crimm examines the lie and eventually gets the truth.)

subject: Re: what the heck spell checkCoach Lasso,
I can assure you that my transfer has nothing to do with your club's relegation, nor is there anything that Richmond has done in error. Rather, I have spoken with my editors and we’ve agreed that this is the most appropriate course of action.
I wish you all the best in the season.

Summary
“Hello? Yes, this is Trent Crimm, The Independent. I’ve got a bit of an emergency and need Coach Lasso’s mobile.” Trent paused, brow furrowing in irritation. “Well, his son is currently standing in my office, in my newspaper building, which is filled with bloodthirsty journos. Could you make an exception for that?"
