Title: The Price to Run
Author: jlsigman
Rating: R
Warnings: language, violence, some horrific imagery
Word count: 1377
Prompt: Nevan and Maria: an unexpected act of kindness
A/N: Takes place some months after Black Rain. Maria is becoming more unstable, her paranoia and unrequited obsession slowly poisoning her against Dante. Her only comfort comes from playing Nevan's guitar form, which quiets her ever-present connection to the Net. Dante watches with suspicion, but tells himself that he could handle anything that might go wrong. Finally, the day comes that he's been waiting for: Nero is on-planet again and desperately wants to meet his wayward descendant. Dante goes to bring him to the shop, leaving Maria with only a stern, “Stay here!” She immediately envisions a fearful and painful future, and, with Nevan's subtle encouragement, hacks into his computer.

Author's notes: It wouldn't shut up! And I have to get something written in other universes some time this month... so I whacked it off at the knees and here it is. (I'll link in from my indexes later; that takes a long time with 2 sites to hit in parallel and I'm trying to get this fic to leave me alone long enough to work on something else tonight too....)

Title: The Meaning of Grace
Author: myeerah
Rating: worksafe
Prompt: Grace rescues Zander from some kind of trouble
Word Count: ~1,000
Characters: Grace (Gabriel Knight) and Zander (Metanoia, by Jesse Hajicek)
Notes: My first take on this prompt was Jossed by the addition of the latest chapter of Metanoia, so I hope that the revisions still hold true. Canon knowledge of both sources is helpful, but I don't think it's necessary for either.
Summary: In which the lost are given direction.

( About two hundred miles from anywhere in particular, Grace saw him walking alongside the highway. )
