Mariko Azrael wrote 'In Time' (Alluded to torture, for the 'amnesia' prompt on hc_bingo. Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger. Ban/Hoji. PG-13, alluded to torture)
Mariko Azrael wrote 'Now Comes the Wait' (Post series, spoilers apply. For the 'panic attacks' prompt on hc_bingo. Denji Sentai Megaranger. Date Kenta/Endou Kouichirou. PG-13, panic attacks)
Mariko Azrael wrote 'Cake and Intrigue' (AU. For the 'runaways' prompt on hc_bingo. Seijuu Sentai Gingaman. Gen. PG, homeless teenagers)
Mariko Azrael wrote 'Head Trauma=True Love (Pre-series. For the 'head trauma' prompt on hc_bingo. Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger. Geki/Goushi. PG)
Mariko Azrael wrote 'The Thrill of the Hunt' (Asexual romance, Marvelous is ace while Don is not. This is not supposed to represent all asexual individuals and relationships ever. That, like so many other things in life, is dependent on the people involved. I tried to keep this from being too anvilly, but this is also the first time I’ve written ace romance, so apologies in advance. Thanks to Meg for the beta. <3 Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Captain Marvelous/Don Dogaier. PG-13, some consensual chasing/roughhousing before sex)
Borrowedphrases wrote 'Unrefined' (She doesn't fight fair. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Luka Millfy/Joe Gibken. PG-13)
Borrowedphrases wrote 'No Hidden Meaning' (It's not love. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Luka Millfy/Joe Gibken. R)
Borrowedphrases wrote 'Dangerous' (A very competitive game of darts. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Basco/Captain Marvelous. PG-13)

Borrowedphrases wrote 'Make Her Worth It' (Luka needs. Marvelous wants. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Luka Millfy/Captain Marvelous. R)
Borrowedphrases wrote 'Black Stain' (Let your hair down. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Captain Marvelous/Joe Gibken. R)
Honou no Izumi wrote 'Of Monster Battles and Bonds' (To the three great monsters, Rei was not just any other master... Ultra Galaxy. Gen. G)
Mi_key wrote 'All the Melting Snow in Spring' (summary Kamen Rider W. Shotaro/Philip. PG)
Cypsiman2 wrote 'Kai's Vexing Day.' (Mahou Sentai Magiranger. Yamazaki Yuka/Ozu Kai. G)
Artikgato wrote 'Family' (vague spoilers for the end, sappy romance, drama and fluff. Basically, the premise in this fic is that Shotaro is pretty obviously straight, Philip is in love with him, and Shotaro has to make the choice between the future he wants (a wife and children) and breaking Philip's heart in the process of getting it, or learning how to be with Philip, at the expense of his ideal future. I wrote a fic that sort of already tackled the "Shotaro is straight and Philip is in love with him" premise (Traps, Cheetahs and Alcohol), but in that one Shotaro was still obviously attracted to Philip from the get-go. Also, this totally started out as random mindless PWP which evolved a pretty serious plot, at which point I realized the PWP scene no longer made any sense in the context of the story, and thus I ditched it. I think this is probably the first time that's ever happened. XD (but don't worry, I'm not going to let a random, context-less PWP scene go to waste!) Kamen Rider W. Shotaro/Philip, Akiko/Terui. PG-13)
Honou no Izumi wrote 'A Place to Call Home' (Post series. As they about to reach Earth, Rei wondered if he would be accepted there. Ultra Galaxy. Gen. G)
Honou no Izumi wrote 'Standstill' (In the end, they were still neither here nor there. Eiji wondered. Kamen Rider OOO. Gen. G)
Skye wrote 'Alien Romance' (Something Sara thought she'd only find on Earth had followed her to Flash Star. Spoilers for end of series. Some expected angst, though it's mostly overly sappy fluffy fluff. Asexual romance or something resembling it. Ace!Lou is canon, right? Choushinsei Flashman. Sara/Lou. Unrated)
