    Summary

    Family drama and domestic troubles don't really stop, even when Jack's former wife asks for help with her fathers case. Jane needs help with French, and Phryne has some difficult decisions she doesn't want to make.

    Mostly canon adjacent season 2 early with more Jane, and Jack and Phryne having to balance parenting troubles with ongoing murder investigations.

    Summary

    A different take on season two that takes place half-way through My Mother, the Fiend and goes AU from there.

    With Keith away, Veronica stays at the Neptune Grand, but tensions with Duncan spill over, and Logan’s unexpected support takes her by surprise.

    This fic is complete and will be posted regularly.

    It is quite dark in places, and contains multiple scenes of violence. I also wanted to explore some of the issues left after season one with Duncan, without vilifying him or making the fic actually about him.

    Summary

    This felt like the kind of friend that Buffy wanted to make. She considered her next move very carefully. Fishing a pencil out of her bag, she leaned across the top of Brie’s desk, then wrote in careful, precise, upside-down lettering: can I sit with you at lunch? :)

    Brie looked up and beamed. She glanced furtively at their homeroom teacher, then scribbled her response: Yes Absolutely!!!

    (Buffy's got a destiny, and her new friend Brie is destiny-free. Really.)
