WC - The Silent Language of Grief  
Title: The Silent Language of Grief
Author: angelita26
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Gen – Neal, Peter, Elizabeth, Mozzie, Diana, Jones, June, Christie
Spoilers: Up to and including about half of Judgment Day.
Warning: Presumed Dead Canon Character. A metric ton of angst.
Word Count: ~4500
Summary: Neal jumps, Mozzie plots, Peter grieves.

Notes: Fills the "grief" square on my H/C Bingo Card. This story diverges from canon during the events of Judgment Day. You can blame/thank [livejournal.com profile] kanarek13 for this – she sent me an amazing piece of art that I couldn't stop thinking about. The cover art is all hers (click it to enlarge). Also, much thanks to [livejournal.com profile] embroiderama for her help and excellent thoughts and suggestions and [livejournal.com profile] pooh_collector for her brainstorming genius.

ETA: Please check [livejournal.com profile] kanarek13's post with the original artwork that inspired this story. It's hauntingly beautiful.



Peter hadn't slept in three days. Every time he closed his eyes he saw the tram, saw the water, saw Neal fall. Every damn time. )

WC - A Little Hope for Their Future  
Title: A Little Hope for Their Future
Author: angelita26
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Neal/Peter/El, Diana, Jones, June, Mozzie
Spoilers: None.
Warnings: Sexswap, pregnancy, brief discussion of unrealized abortion
Word Count: ~9700
Summary: Strange things have happened to Neal in his illustrious life; none of them stranger than waking up as a woman.

Notes: This was meant to be crackfic - it isn't. There's also some scientific/medical/pregnancy handwaving necessary for the sake of the plot. Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] pooh_collector for beta-ing and hand-holding, [livejournal.com profile] citrinesunset for the encouragement, and chat for all their help.



When Neal woke in the early hours of the morning, sandwiched between Peter and Elizabeth, he shifted uncomfortably and wondered why his body ached and his head felt fuzzy, like it did when he had a fever.

Note: Link redirects to AO3 due to length.

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] kanarek13 made a gorgeous, amazing cover, and I've added it above. It's clickable for a much larger version. Check it out!

Author: angelita26
Rating: PG
Characters: Neal, Peter, Elizabeth, Jones, Diana, and Theo
Spoilers: Through the Season 5 finale.
Word Count: ~1800
Summary: Post-S5. A quiet moment amid chaos is enough to break down walls that Neal's spent seven months building up.

Notes: Written for [livejournal.com profile] whitecollarhc's Abduct-a-Palooza II. Specifically in response to a prompt by anonymous.

Neal padded quietly down the stairs and stood by the kitchen entryway to listen to the commotion in the dining area. It was late – after ten – and Peter's team was gathered around the table with laptops and case files and maps of the city. )

When Peter wakes up, the first thing he notices is that the scratchy hospital sheets have graduated from annoying to itchy. The first thing he sees is Neal sitting in a chair in the corner, tailor style, watching him. )

Characters and/or Pairing: OT3 – Neal/El/Peter and Jones makes an appearance in the van
Spoilers: None.
Word Count: ~1300
Summary: It's been a long undercover op, and Neal's beyond exhausted.

Notes: Since there seems to be a little bit of a lull in posting this week, I'm cleaning up some of the ficlets I did by either asking for prompts or for designated prompt chats over at [livejournal.com profile] wcwu. This is another one for [livejournal.com profile] embroiderama, who asked for “Neal got so exhausted on a case that he fainted”. E - I have almost doubled the fic's size - hope you enjoy the additional scene!

It was a quarter 'til three a.m. when Neal slipped into the surveillance van and dropped heavily into the first chair he saw. )

Peter saw the glint of a gun while he was reaching for his own weapon but had no chance to dive for cover. )

As the one year anniversary of the kidnapping approached, Peter tried to subtly pull Neal and Diana back from active investigations. They both noticed within an hour and protested that they were fine, but the tell-tale signs of sleepless nights were evident in their lines on their faces. Peter held firm and handed over a box of cold cases for them to divvy up. )

Spoilers: None.
Warnings: Unbetaed. Mentions of abuse and captivity.
Word Count: ~1200
Summary: A story told in timestamps – Neal and Diana were kidnapped during a case and held captive for several months. Their rescue is only the beginning.

Notes: Written for a prompt at [livejournal.com profile] collarkink that can be found at the end of this chapter. There are five parts to this fic so far, but there will be between eight and ten parts total.

When Peter and the cavalry finally appeared, pulling open the heavy iron door and letting light flood their small cell, Neal and Diana were curled up on the single cot together, eyes closed and bodies tensed as they waited for the next round of torture. They were filthy, stained with dirt and blood on their skin and what was left of their clothing. )
