Fic: Against the Day (Watchmen)
Title: Against the Day
Author:anactoria
Characters/pairing: Byron, implied past Bill/Byron.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Alcohol abuse.
Summary: Mothman inspires some poetry.
Notes: Thanks tooudeteron for the beta!
Just in case you were in any doubt, this is the poem in question. I’ve fudged the timeline a little: Streetcar actually premiered in 1947, two years before the HUAC trials. Maybe it came out later in the WM universe, or something.
( Whatever it is you’re looking for, I don’t think you’re gonna find it at the bottom of that glass. )

Beta request (Watchmen)
Would any of you Watchmen types out there be willing to beta-read a short Byron-centric genfic? There's assumed past Bill/Byron but it's not a pairing fic, really.

Fic: Parachute (Watchmen)
Title: Parachute
Author:anactoria
Characters/pairing: Adrian/OMC
Rating: PG-13

Summary: A teenaged Adrian sneaks away from a trip with family friends, and encounters a fellow fugitive.

You can see the parachute ride at Coney Island in action here. ;)
