Advent 06 - Homecoming, Highlander, none, PG

Title: Homecoming
Author: Beren
Fandom: Highlander
Pairing: none
Rating: PG

It had been nearly twelve years since Richie had seen Mac take his head, well take the head of someone who had looked just like him. Twelve years since he had turned around, changed his name, his hair colour and even taken to wearing coloured contacts to completely become someone else. Of course he knew it had been the demon's fault, he still had nightmares occasionally, but he had needed time to come to terms with the whole thing. Now he was ready; it was time to let Mac know he was still alive. It was time to go home.

Advent 07 - Cats, Weiss Kreuz, none, G

Title: Cats
Author: Beren
Fandom: Weiss Kreuz
Pairing: none
Rating: G

Yoji watched Aya out of the corner of his eye. There was a stray piece of tinsel moving in the draft from where Omi had insisted on decorating the house, and Yoji could see Aya watching it. It was almost as if Aya was becoming a little too close to his codename because Yoji was sure that if Aya had had a tail it would have been twitching. When Aya's hand finally shot out and grabbed the tinsel, as accurate as any paw, Yoji had to hide his snort of laughter behind a discrete cough. Oh yeah, definitely a cat.

Advent 08 - Not Like That, Jrock, Gackt/Hyde, PG

Title: Not Like That
Author: Beren
Fandom: Jrock RPS
Pairing: Gackt/Hyde
Rating: PG

Hiding in plain view, that's how Hyde saw most of his life. The fans talked about him and Gackt, even pretended that they were together, but none of them actually knew it was true. He made it look like he had the perfect marriage when in fact he and Megumi had come together out of convenience not attraction. He did love her, just not like that; they were friends. It was hard, but what made it worth while were times like now, when Gackt opened the front door before he could use his key and greeted him with a kiss.
