It is Not Flesh and Blood (Foggy-Matt | PG13 | 793 words): Foggy runs into Matt's abandonment issues. This is a lovely bit of relationship study for Matt and Foggy's relationship and a bit of healing that the show never gave us.

Excerpt:
"You know about what." Foggy sighs. "You. Me. The daredevilling."

Matt feels the fury and loss rising again like bile. More corrosion. "I thought we had covered that already."

"No... no, we haven't." Foggy shakes his head, and takes a breath, probably to tell Matt that he just did – then he lets it go. "I beat you up for being a lying bastard, that's not talking."

Down to the Bone (Foggy/Matt | G | 4,572 words): A daemon AU for Matt and Foggy. This is a really fun daemon AU, and the emotions are all so heart-warming.

Excerpt:
He gets used to the easy way that Foggy fits into his life, to the smell of cheetos and coconut shampoo and the warm feel of Foggy's arm under his fingers. He hasn't touched anyone but Amala this much since his father died. He gets used to way Darius sings in the night, a low croaking croon that helps Foggy sleep. After awhile, it helps Matt sleep as well. He even gets used to the smell of damp, cool air that seems to cling to Darius, like a forest or the night after a rain.

"He gets sick if he dries out," Foggy explains, misting Darius with a spray bottle he keeps in his bag. A year in, Matt realizes that he keeps one too, just in case.

Amala likes them, will curl up around Darius when Matt and Foggy are studying, or scamper back and forth around Darius while he flicks his tongue out, playfully trying to catch her.

"I like them," Amala whispers to Matt, curled up on his pillow.
