Rather a Story

Life in the Valley

2012-10-05T19:15:14Z

Title: Life in the Valley
Summary: Written for brilligspoons for the h50_exchange. The team has some much-needed downtime at one of Chin and Kono's cousins' taro farm.
Pairings/Characters: Chin/Kono/Danny/Steve (The story assumes an OT4 kind of poly relationship, but never goes further than very chaste kissing)
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: ~4,500
Warnings: > Secondary character death, only mentioned in passing.
Disclaimer: Last I checked, CBS is still the only one with any right to make money off these guys.
Neurotic Author's Note #1: I would like to thank the mods first and foremost for being very very patient with me during this challenge, and for running it in the first place, which is a herculean task!
Neurotic Author's Note #2: I also owe a huge debt of gratitude to zolac_no_miko, without whom this fic would not have happened and who provided me with all of the Hawaiian culture portrayed herein. Any factual errors are due to my incomprehension and nothing else.
Neurotic Author's Note #3: And, last but not least, many many thanks to my indefatigable beta, rainylemons, who listened while I whined at her and held my hand and basically made sure the story didn't suck. brilligspoons, I really hope this is close to what you were looking for.

Show Yourself

Title: Show Yourself
Summary: Ferret 'verse. When the Five-0 crew are trapped, Danny is forced to reveal his secret in order to get them out of their predicament.
Characters: Danny, Steve, Chin, Kono
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 2,917
Disclaimer: All of it still belongs to CBS, except for the bit where Danny's a ferret.
Warnings: Mild violence
Neurotic Author's Note #1: This was written as a pinch-hit for a pinch-hit for an unspecified charity thing for zortified, who had the misfortune of never actually getting a completed charity fic in the past. The request was for a fic in which Danny was forced to reveal his true nature to the rest of the team.
Neurotic Author's Note #2: Um, you may notice a distinct lack of plot, here. To which I reply: plot? Who needs a plot? Look, Danny is a ferret! *cough*

But World Enough, and Time (Master Post)

2012-04-06T17:48:21Z

Title: But World Enough, and Time
Summary: Written for tailoredshirt for the h50_exchange. When Steve meets Kono, he is twenty-eight and she is twenty. He has never met her before. Kono has known him since she was six years old. Or, the H50 retelling of The Time Traveler's Wife.
Characters: Steve/Kono, with most of the show characters and a few OCs.
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Violence, swearing, gore. References to off-screen attempted rape. Also Major character death that's not entirely permanent.
Word Count: 41,284
Disclaimer: .
Neurotic Author's Note #1: When I agreed to do a pinch-hit, I didn't quite realise how hard this bunny would bite. tailoredshirt expressed an interest in time travel, and challenged whoever got her prompt to not only write Steve/Kono, but to write them as more than just a hot sex pairing, and thus this story was born. I wish I had another three months to write it, but I fear even then I wouldn't be able to do it justice. Audrey Niffeneger I am not. ;)
Neurotic Author's Note #2: I must take this moment to note that I am an ASS who lacks reading comprehension skills, and apologize to tailoredshirt for writing something that she'll probably never be able to read. >_< I will make it up to you, I swear!
Neurotic Author's Note #3: I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the mods of this exchange who put up with my being extremely late with this pinch-hit and for misreading my prompt a whole lot and not realizing it until it was too late. They have put so much work into this exchange, and I am truly, truly grateful that they didn't smack me with a dead fish for making their work that much harder. Hopefully the end product will make up for my being so high-maintenance. Thank you, guys, for making this whole experience so grand!

Ho'opakele (1/2)

2012-04-06T16:12:48Z

Title: Ho'opakele
Summary: Written for a prompt by sylvanelfqueen for the h50_exchange. When kidnappers take Grace's class hostage, Steve must race against the clock to save his partner's little girl while Danny is away on the mainland.
Characters: All of Five-0, Grace, OCs.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Violence that doesn't exceed show levels
Word Count: 15,607
Disclaimer: Playing in CBS' sandbox. No harm intended.
Neurotic Author's Notes I owe a huge debt of gratitude to thelastcity, who beta'd this creature and beat it into submission with the big Club of Proper Grammar and Syntax. Without her, it would be a much poorer story. Any remaining mistakes are, of course, my own, and should not reflect upon her mad betaing skills, since I poked at it afterward. Also, my apologies if I butchered the Hawaiian in my title. /o\
