Summary
It begins, and ends, with a Christmas tree.
Max Evans doesn't mind his life. He likes helping his brother out at the tree lot. He likes selling books. He loves his family. He's (trying to) write his first novel.
Most days, he doesn't even think about Liz Ortecho or Kyle Valenti, or what they might be doing out in San Diego.
But now, for the first time in years, they're back.

Summary

Dealing with Knights by beautifulcheat (Katalyst), ladynox

Summary
Once upon a time, a princess disappeared from the kingdom of Valkaria. Rumor had it that she was kidnapped by a dragon, who held her captive in a tower at the heart of the Enchanted Forest. Only her knightly betrothed, the fourth prince of Bexamer, could save her by seeking out the dread beast that kept her from him and slay it so they could live happily ever after.
Or something.
Truth be told, Alex wasn’t particularly interested in slaying any dragons or winning any fair maid’s hand.
For her part, the Lady Maria had decided she'd had quite enough of being royalty. She much preferred her cozy tower home in the forest and the company of the dragon she'd given her heart to. She was not in the mood to deal with any knights, betrothed or not.

The Truth is Right Here by beautifulcheat (Katalyst), ladynox

Summary
Maria Deluca and Alex Manes had been partners, both in the X-Files department and in marriage, for years. They each had their own reasons to search for the truth, and it just made sense to do it together.
Michael Guerin was just a con trying to keep his head down, serve his time, and not attract the wrong type of attention.
He definitely had not bargained on being loaned out to a couple of alien hunters.
[Update 1/8/23: I have marked this fic as complete, even though technically we are simply on hiatus. However we stopped at a very good pause point that could serve as a finale, so if you've been waiting to catch up -- this is an excellent time to do so.]

Summary
The Lockhart House was once a home, although it was never a happy one. Steeped in tragedy, it still stands today, in the heart of Old Town Roswell, attracting ghost hunters and those seeking to catch a peek of something from beyond the veil.
Contrary to popular myth, it wasn’t currently haunted (except by one paranormally talented docent). It was Michael’s favorite job and the best part of his summer home from UNM. Or at least was until Alex Manes was hired to man the gift shop, complicating an otherwise fun and easy job.

Summary
It was pouring when Michael pulled up to the airstream. The wheels of his truck skidded on the mud, a combination of the speed at which he was traveling and the water that hadn’t fully soaked into the parched earth. It was hard to see through the deluge, but this was his home. He didn’t need to be able to see to carry his bundle into the airstream, wrapped up within the folds of his coat.
Just a bit of power and the door swung open, allowing Michael access.
“I don’t think he followed us,” Michael said to the small, shivering form that was curled up in his jacket, locking the door firmly behind him and peeking out. “Can barely see anything in that rain.”

Summary
Isobel Evans and Rosa Ortecho's wedding is going to be an affair to remember. That is, if Alex Manes doesn't ruin it first.
This wasn't his idea. Honestly, he'd rather spend the wedding getting drunk, bribing the DJ to play songs that would drive the brides crazy, and keeping well away from his first, unrequited love. But when one of your best friends asks you to be their worst man, you take that job seriously.
Even if that means ending up a hell of a lot closer to Michael Guerin than he bargained for.

Summary
Once upon a time, in a cold grey castle lived a princess.
She wasn’t a particularly good princess. She abhorred courtly dances and constantly mixed up the dozens of courtiers and cousins, ambassadors and knights she was supposed to know. For sure, she was beautiful, kind and charming, and the court could do nothing but sing her praises out loud. But privately they whispered that she was too headstrong and sharp tongued. What could be expected from the daughter of a witch? Best to marry her off quickly to an obscure fourth or fifth son and forget she ever existed.
Thankfully, Maria never much cared for what fat, old courtiers thought of her. She was the daughter of the most powerful seer in five generations. And she had a destiny. One that wasn’t going to be fulfilled sitting prim and proper by the side of a dull prince whose wits were as soft as his hands.
