GROOVES AS SPIRALS

fiction by Signe

A master list of all my fiction from 2004 onwards - links go to my livejournal entries. Earlier stories (Smallville, plus a few Harry Potter drabbles) can be found in my livejournal memories. Stories prior to 2006 are mostly not worth reading! Disclaimer: none of the characters belong to me and no profit is being made. Please note the ratings on stories before reading. Feedback is always appreciated, however old the story.

Some of my stories are also available on Archive of Our Own - my page is here. These stories can be downloaded as epub, html, pdf or mobi files, and can also be searched by pairing, genre, etc. I'm slowly adding older stories to the archive.

Latest update: 9th December 2011. I've added everything from this year so far, plus my fandom_stocking ficlets from last December. New fandoms are X-Men: First Class (3 stories), Frankenstein - Nick Dear (1 story), Sherlock (BBC) (1 story) and Star Trek: The Next Generation (1 story). There are also several Generation Kill stories, Fringe, Star Trek: Reboot, Merlin, Chuck, Thoughtcrimes, Doctor Who and some assorted crossovers (Good Omens/Star Trek: Reboot, Burn Notice/NCIS/Firefly, Cabin Pressure/Stargate Atlantis and NCIS: LA/NCIS/Burn Notice).

all very pc, of course [Better Off Ted, Ted, Veronica, Lem, Phil, Linda, Rose, PG, 1,011 words, October 2009.]

He always wanted the forbidden.

BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN

all that is left is all that i hide [Brokeback Mountain, Ennis/Jack, 438 words, R, January 2008]

Anything You Can Do [Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike/Buffy, PG-13, 697 words, July 2005]

"We have to find our own paths and follow them wherever they lead. We're adventurers. We always have been, always will. We need to know, need to find new quests and ask new questions whenever we answer old ones. If we stopped, we wouldn't be humans any more."

CHRONICLES OF NARNIA

Knock On All Doors And Enter Nowhere [Chronicles of Narnia, Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy, G, 2,300 words, March 2006]
It isn't that Peter forgets exactly. The memories of Narnia are all still there, layered between memories of England, like the chocolate and vanilla layers in the marble cake mother used to make before the war and rationing. When Peter was very little, he used to like to peel the cake apart so that he could eat all the vanilla parts first, and save the chocolate until last.

And Indeed There Will Be Time [Chronicles of Narnia (books), Lucy/Caspian X, Susan, Peter, Edmund, Pg-13, 2,478 words, December 2005]

CHUCK

Quality Time [Chuck (TV), Chuck, Casey, PG, 519 words, Dec 2010.]

serpentine smile [Doctor Who, Eleven, Amy, Vincent, PG, 3,047 words, Aug 2010.]
Not what she was expecting. He paints sunflowers. And cornfields. And swirling, magical starry nights. Not nude Scottish girls. She'd be naked in the Musée d'Orsay. That'd be—

Like Phyllon When Spring Blossoms [Firefly, Inara/Kaylee, pg-13, 681 words, March 2007]
"You're like the stars, 'Nara," she says, wistfully, looking around and standing carefully, so as not to touch anything. "I'm just some grubby little backwater planet circling you."

Why do I not have your grace? You walk like water flows downhill in the riverbed at Ingolstadt, dancing over stones and laughing at the sweeps and curves of it. Such ease. You are beautiful, like nature is beautiful, like the simplest things in the world, the great and small, the blazing sun or a small golden flower petal. You run like the Arctic wind howls, in bounds and leaps that have no start or end.

THE GATES

Selectively Blind [The Gates, Nick/Dylan, PG-13, 6,167 words, Aug 2010.]

Zombies, Superheroes and Fucking Angels [Generation Kill, Brad/Nate, AU, R, 1,576 words, January 2010]
It's a crayon drawing of him and Nate, holes in the corners as though it's been tacked to a wall. There's no doubt it's them, even though the two stick figures are crudely drawn and appear to have wings. Or possibly capes — Brad can't be sure.

The Fisherman and the Merman, or The Time Brad Learned Mermen Were Real (and Hot!) [Generation Kill, Brad/Nate, Rudy, Doc, Pappy, Sixta, Encino Man, Ray, PG-13, AU, crack, first-time, 8,511 words, December 2009.]
When Brad decided to become a fisherman, he took a two day hike, cut down a tree in the forest, dragged it home (okay, he borrowed a pony to help pull it — he's strong, not superman), and made a boat out of the tree.

"Fuck me," Brad says. "Yeah, wouldn't surprise me if he wanted to," Poke says. Brad looks at him, icy calm. "What? I've got eyes, dog. I'm just saying, the way he used to look at you, well... he didn't look at none of the rest of us quite like that."

A Mouse Tale [Green Wing, Boyce, Caroline, Mac, Guy, Martin, gen, PG-13, 1,144 words, December 2006]
"You're a sick man, Boyce," Mac says. Boyce doesn't deny it.

Baby On Board [Green Wing, Martin, Guy, Mac, Angela, Caroline, PG-13, 427 words, September 2006]
Mac shrugs. Angela manages something through a mouthful of apple that might be 'not me' or might be 'fuck me' - Mac's not sure. Caroline's too engrossed in her Mars bar to pay much attention.

Unstable Vagina [Green Wing, Dr. Statham, Boyce, gen (or at least no slashier than the show), PG-13, silliness, 442 words, August 2007]
"Don't you think that's a bit, well, careless? Not actually checking. What if he's really a woman? And just how unstable is his, or her, vagina? Just think, it could go—" Boyce pauses for emphasis, then waves his hands wildly, "BOOM, any minute."

GREY'S ANATOMY

another kind of comfort [Grey's Anatomy, Meredith/Cristina, strong R, 225 words plus artwork, coda to 3x18, April 2007]
It's just one kind of comfort slipping into another kind of comfort.

Bull's-Eye [Grey's Anatomy, George, PG, 450 words, March 2006]

You know that horrible moment that happens when you're watching something really engaging, and then, just as everything's starting to get interesting, it fades to black?

Please Write Legibly [Grey's Anatomy, George, G, 262 words, February 2006]
But really, this is it. The day.

Fuck the Details [Grey's Anatomy, George, Cristina, Izzie, Meredith, R, 821 words, January 2006]
Celibacy is the new black, she decides. Lots of fringe benefits too: save money on condoms, look okay in the morning without having to resort to plastering herself with the heavy duty foundation, no yawning for at least the first twelve hours of a rotation.

HARRY POTTER

a fucking space opera (or Six Characters Who Didn't Board the USS Enterprise) [Star Trek: reboot, plus guests from Merlin, Stargate Atlantis, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Supernatural, & Harry Potter, James T. Kirk, ensemble, Arthur, Rodney, Cameron, Dean, Sam and a giant squid, PG-13, 3,169 words, May 2009]
His life's a fucking space opera. And not even the erotic type that airs on New HBO. No, it's the animated comic type where the captain goes splat against the wall every episode and the pointy-eared bastard quirks his pointy eyebrow and steps on the captain's flattened remains.

Heart Me Baby [Harry Potter, Fred, George, G, 417 words, silliness, January 2006]
Dumbledore put an arm around each of them and pulled them into a huddle. Not what they were expecting: normally teachers just shouted at them the moment they saw them. McGonagall called it pre-something—pre-emption, that was it.

Dimensionally Challenged [Harry Potter, Harry/Draco, NC-17, 4,752 words, humour, August 2005]
But this was Malfoy for Merlin's sake; surely no one could really expect him to deal with this. Except they did, which was yet more proof that the entire universe had it in for him. He almost longed for the days when half the wizarding world was trying to kill him outright.

Footprints in the Snow [Harry Potter, Harry/Draco, R, humour, 1,681 words, November 2004]
It was a good thing Harry had a Slytherin to look out for him these days; Draco was distinctly proud of the fact that Harry broke more rules with Draco than he ever had with the weasel, yet he only got into trouble a fraction of the time. You just couldn't expect a Weasley to be properly devious—it wasn't in their heritage.

Underneath [Harry Potter, Harry/Draco/Squid, R, 464 words, October 2004]
Harry's torn between showing him a finger or just smiling back, but before he makes his mind up, Draco has started fading, feet first, then his legs and torso, until, Cheshire cat-like, there's just the trace of a wicked grin left.

Ten Thousand Forfeit Heartbeats [Harry Potter, Harry/Draco, NC-17, post-Hogwarts, angst, romance, 3,000 words, September 2004]
There are oaths in the wizarding world, oaths that bind far more tightly than any muggle oath. They've taken them, all the good ones, all the ones that say that they want to be a part of one other, that their lives will be so entwined that nothing, no magical force of good or evil, no muggle or wizard or evil creature, could split them.

Say Hello Before You Say Goodbye [Harry Potter, Harry/hooker!Draco, NC-17, angst, future-fic, 1,712 words and link to collage, July 2004]

Full Circle [Harry Potter, Harry/Draco, R, 857 words, June 2004]
They met in the middle.

Lumos Penilis [Harry Potter, Sirius/Remus, NC-17ish, humour, first-time, 2,311 words, January 2004]

Merlin follows Arthur into the ruins. Naturally. He always follows Arthur-- into battle, into bed, into the twenty-first century. And now into the ruins of a castle that hadn't even been built when he was born. His life is weird.

LIFE

the rain and the sun [Life, Charlie, Ted, R, 385 words, December 2008]
He lies in bed that night, ignores the scratch of cheap cotton and Ted's soft snores, and imagines being an apple.

the inside of out [Life, Charlie, adult, 418 words, January 2008]
His sky, his air. Wide open space, and he tips back his head and looks up at the sky, clear and cloudless, the deep blue of distance. Everything's far away. He can hold his arms out wide and touch nothing.

MERLIN

A Bloody Good Adventure [Merlin (BBC), Merlin, Gwaine, G, 746 words, pre-slash, Dec 2010.]
It must be a knight thing, this glare. Arthur has it off pat, of course, and now Gwaine's got just the same look, though Merlin thinks it looks hotter on Gwaine. Maybe Arthur holds secret knight training sessions where they learn to glare at Merlin.

The Girl in the Goblet [Merlin, Arthur/Merlin, PG-13, 2,712 words, Dec 2010.]

the ebb and the flow [Merlin, Morgana, mention of Merlin/Arthur, PG, 500 words, March 2009.]

even medieval times had a top shelf [Merlin, Merlin/Arthur, PG-13/R, first-time, 1,104 words, December 2008]

Riding the High [Smallville, Lex/Clark, NC-17, 1,471 words, PWP, September 2005]

The Observant Eye [Sports Night, Jeremy/Natalie, PG-13, 342 words, September 2005]

Kirk, ensemble, Arthur, Rodney, Cameron, Dean, Sam and a squid, PG-13, 3,169 words, May 2009]

Rinse, Repeat [Star Trek: The Next Generation, Data/Tasha Yar, PG-13, 734 words, coda for The Naked Now, Dec 2010.]
