Summary
You see the ways the fisherman doth take
To catch the fish; what engines doth he make?
Behold how he engageth all his wits;
Also his snares, lines, angles, hooks, and nets;
Yet fish there be, that neither hook, nor line,
Nor snare, nor net, nor engine can make thine:
They must be groped for, and be tickled too,
Or they will not be catch'd, whate'er you do.John Bunyan, The Pilgrim's Progress from this world to that which is to come

Wayward Souls Put to Rest by kormantic for Snacky

Summary
If you're following this account, then you have probably learned too that both Alexander and I are somewhat famous in these parts; me more than him, since my fame has been so far-flung and international that as a direct result, I met the Queen of England. Also there is a wax figure of me at Madame Tussaud's in London, so that's just plain fact and not a whit of vanity.

Summary
“Shouldn’t we at least tell you what we want to know?” Charles asked.
Avis lifted one finger to quell him, frown deepening.
“You will witness a death. And you will find a family.”
“I don’t suppose you could tell us which order those might occur. Or give us a time frame, maybe?” Oliver asked hopefully.

I'll be Jane by gurlsrool
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
27 Jan 2026

Summary
It’s not going viral because Jane’s true identity was exposed—or even because Ilya was blatantly sexting in public. That part’s as expected as Shane doing yoga or any human being on earth breathing.
No, the texts are going viral because no one can believe how bad this “Jane” is at sexting.
The women of the world are outraged. The men of the world are baffled. No one can understand why Ilya Rozanov, whose abs have their own fan club, is wasting his time on ‘a piece of cardboard that wished to be turned into a real girl’ (this particular joke has 300k likes and counting).
Or: After a social media trend mocks Shane's sexting skills, he tries to improve them. It goes about as poorly as you'd expect.

Summary
“Lexie, who was that guy you were with at the supermarket? You know. The older one?”
I laughed, Lexie’s first instinctual response to anything I needed a second to think about. Shit. Me and Frank had moved our debriefs off of park benches after we nearly got caught by a classmate; turns out pretending to be strangers who happened to be contemplating the same row of crisps at Tesco wasn’t a good choice either. What the fuck had Anna been doing there? Most of Lexie’s friends lived off takeaway and speed, and barely ever set foot in a supermarket if they could help it.
“Well, what do you think?” I asked, nose in the air, my own smile creeping in at the edges, like I was the one with a secret, and actually, I was pleased enough to share. Delighted, even. “He’s my fella, duh.”

Delightful all around. John is literally fumbling around in the dark, but he gets there anyway. Fun Ronon and Rodney being Rodney, with bonus Evil Zelenka. Hee.
