Summary
“Wait,” Steve grabs Eddie's hand before he flies away. “Stay?” His eyes are worn and a hint of fear shimmers underneath.
“This is really scary,” he admits. “I don’t know what’s going on and I don’t know when I’ll suddenly disappear. Maybe I’ll just disappear for good? It’d be nice if there was someone familiar around. Plus,” Steve adds with a weary grin, “you were probably busy before I intruded.”
In 1984, Eddie finds himself in front of a rugged version of the preppy jock he’s only peripherally aware of at school. Compelled by Steve's tale of time travel, Eddie invites him to hide in his trailer until he can return to his proper place and time in 1986.

Summary
Fred isn’t exactly sure when it happened. Maybe it was sometime during their consultations, where she mostly scolded him but occasionally offered advice. Or maybe it was when he gave her flying lessons in fourth year. Or maybe it was on that first day when she had robbed him and demanded he search for a toad.
It didn’t really matter when. All Fred Weasley knew was that, at some point, he had fallen in love with his little brother’s best friend.

Summary
Iceman didn’t put this much work into building his career just so he could spend it putting out Maverick's many fires. Alas, given that half the personal favors owed to Ice stem from him handling another officer’s Maverick Problem of The Day and the other half are kept on reserve for smoothing over whatever nonsense Pete causes next, it’s become something of a reputation for him.
“At least I’m cute, right?”
Tom drops his head back and stares at the ceiling in dismay. Sometimes, he truly wonders why he keeps this impulsive idiot of his. “You do have that going for you.”
Or—
There are few things more universally feared in the Navy than owing Admiral Tom “Iceman” Kazansky a favor.Series

Summary
The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’
Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.
