Date: 2012-11-06 07:09 pm (UTC)So, how are these for backgrounds?
When Lucifer got locked back in the cage, everything supernatural disappeared. Dean tried retiring but couldn’t handle it. He got tangled up in Eliot’s crew and taught his son Ben to fight. Ben graduated college (doing martial arts and kickboxing the whole time) and tried to have a normal life for a few months before calling his father and begging for something to do. Dean hooked him up with his Uncle Eliot.
After an attempt to go straight, Josie tracked down Nate’s crew and begged Parker to train her.
After getting kicked out of college for hacking, Trevor had difficulties with the law and was taken in by Chaos as a protégé. After Chaos framed him and left him to take the fall, Hardison swooped in and saved him, taking him on as a padawan learner.
Molly focused on self-defense after the kidnapping; she learned every kind of style of fighting she could, to the detriment of everything else. She took a few low-level jobs before Eliot found her and promised to train her if she’d quit working for thugs.
Kurt went to New York, worked at vogue.com, reauditioned for NYADA, went to NYU instead, reconnected with Blaine during their shared freshman year, and graduated with a BA in drama from Tisch. He ran into Sophie during auditions for parts around New York, watched her run a few low-level cons for fun, and then tried his own. Sophie found him so adorable she decided to adopt him.

Date: 2012-11-06 10:54 pm (UTC)Yeah, I seem to be six hundred words into it. *facepalm*
Would you be willing to PM your email address so I can send you what I have? I have no idea what the plot is.

Date: 2012-12-09 06:06 am (UTC)(One line paraphrased from Skyfall.)
Five days ago, his name was Chris.
Six days before that, he was Tommy.
Seven days before that, he was Elton.
Three months ago, he was Bryce Larkin.
.
Bryce Larkin was not a traitor. Bryce Larkin was a fool.
.
Today, he's Neal. A year ago, he was Neal. Two, three, four years ago - still Neal.
Neal's his favorite. Neal's suave and debonair, so gorgeous and slick. Neal's a charmer, that's for sure. Even the people who hate Neal just can't help but love him.
Look at Peter if you don't believe it.
.
Chris Watson is a sociology student.
Tommy Douglass is an art appraiser.
Elton Smythe is the only son of an oil tycoon.
Bryce Larkin was a government agent in love with computer geek.
And Neal… Neal’s no more real than them. Neal’s a ghost. A figment. A dream.
Neal isn’t chained by anything but loyalty, and loyalty…
Well. Loyalty can be very fleeting.
.
Neal looks into the mirror. Chris and Tommy and Elton and Bryce all look back. Ghosts. Figments. Dreams.
He blinks and he’s Neal.
Bryce Larkin has resurrected once before. He might again. Loyalty is his greatest weakness, after all.
Bryce Larkin wasn’t his first life, but until Neal it was the longest.
Loyalty is a weakness.
He turns away from the mirror and grabs his hat on the way out the door.
.
Justin Contel is a gun-runner for the mafia trying to work his way up. He’s stupid and reckless. Impressive, though, those moves he can pull out of a car. He’s flashy and charming. So charming.
The sting goes south and there’s no way Neal Caffrey could get out alive. It steals Peter’s breath, heart in his throat, the thought that Neal would die inside while Peter’s own team holds him back, shouting orders nobody listens to.
But staring into the barrel of a gun, Neal blinks and changes skins.
Neal Caffrey couldn’t get out alive. Neither could Justin Contel.
But Bryce Larkin… his greatest weakness might be loyalty, but his greatest skill is resurrection.
.
The mafioso turned on his men, that’s what Neal’s report says.
No one sees Bryce Larkin, every few blinks, and no one questions his story. They’re just too happy he survived.
.
Neal Caffrey is a ghost. A figment. A dream.
And like Bryce Larkin before him, one day he’ll vanish like smoke in the night, gone as if it’d never been.
He looks into the mirror, blinking through all the names he’s worn, and it gets harder to choose because it’s time to move on.
… not quite yet.
Neal Caffrey flips on his hat, grins at the mirror, and saunters out.
