White Collar - "Places To Go And Secrets To Keep"

Title: Places To Go And Secrets To Keep
Author: TeeJay
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings: Neal, Peter
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] ariadnes_string as a response to the "Running Hot" multi-fandom fever comment fic meme
Prompt: Feverish Neal spills the beans
Would Like: Some time after the events of 3x01, Neal is ill/drugged/poisoned and in his delirious or simply kind of out-of-it state, he lets something slip about what he was really up in the episode. Peter hears (or overhears). What difference does it make that Peter knows?
I'm less interested in what Peter does with the information in the long term (though feel free to explore that) than I am in what difference it makes to Peter in the short term—looking after Neal, trying to get help for him. Does it change the way he treats Neal once he knows the truth? Feel free to make the scenario as mundane or as life-or-death as you wish.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Spoilers for everything leading up to and including 3x01 'On Guard'
Summary: When June asks Peter to keep watch of a fever-ridden Neal, the latter lets some info slip that he rather should have kept to himself and that gets him in a world of trouble.
Author's Note: Oh man, I'm doing it again. Seems like all I'm writing lately is Neal whump. But, well, it seems to be in great demand, so who am I to say no? He's also such an adorably easy whumpage target. Are two excuses enough to make it remotely okay?
This will obviously be AU-ish, with a pinch of added wishful thinking. Also, there's going to be unresolved angst. If you're a fan of happy endings, this probably isn't for you.
Tons of thanks to the trusty [livejournal.com profile] rabidchild67 for the beta.

White Collar - "Downhill From There"

Title: Downhill From There
Author: TeeJay
Summary: A power outage hits the FBI building and traps Neal and Peter in the elevator. As if that wasn't bad enough, it turns out that Neal isn't feeling so great.
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] anniehow as a response to the "Running Hot" multi-fandom fever comment fic meme
Prompt/Request: Jeff Eastin (writer) and Tim DeKay (actor) have expressed a wish to make an entire episode of Neal and Peter stuck in an elevator. I say hell yeah, but add that Neal isn't feeling all too well...
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings: Neal, Peter
Author's Note: I think the only way to see this actually happen on the actual show is if they were really low on money and needed to do a low-budget episode. Because these one-set-only episodes usually happen when there's no money for elaborate on-location shoots. Still, I think it could be interesting to see it on TV, even without the Neal whump. :-P
I imagine this to take place some time in season 2, definitely before the season 2 finale.
I owe the wonderful [livejournal.com profile] rabidchild67 a big thanks for the beta.
Disclaimer: Bla bla Jeff Eastin, bla bla USA Network. Bla bla not mine, not making any money from this. Bla bla characters should be totally mine, especially Neal welcome.

Word Count: 300
Rating: PG-13
Warning: Implied character death
Summary: Neal stares at the assortment of skinny ties draped over his unmade bed. He doesn't know, doesn't want to choose.
Author's Note: I imagine this to play in the same universe as my previous drabble, "The Element Of Surprise", so if you want to know what's going on, that drabble should give you a pretty good idea. And, yes, I'm still sorry.

White Collar - "5 Times Peter Burke Saw Neal Caffrey Cry"

Title: Five Times Peter Burke Saw Neal Caffrey Cry
Author: TeeJay
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings: Peter, Neal (and a little bit of Elizabeth)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Spoilers for 1x14 'Out Of The Box'
Summary: I think the title says it all: Five times Peter saw Neal cry.
Author's Note: This is kinda dark and angsty. Every now and then, I need a McPunisher fic to purge all the dark, angsty thoughts from my mind and project them onto someone else. And Neal is such an easy target. That said, I am not sorry. ;o)
The fourth time was inspired by a particularly haunting scene from Prison Break in season one. You'll know which one if you've seen the show. And, geez, I made myself cry when writing the fifth time. *sniff*
An armful of kudos to the wonderful [livejournal.com profile] rabidchild67 for the beta.

Title: Scapegoat
Author: TeeJay
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings:  Neal, Peter, Diana
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] poorfenny  for [livejournal.com profile] collarcorner  Prompt Fest Round 6
Prompt/Request: I would love a fic about trust issues, because I can't get enough! =)
Would like: Peter to doubt Neal. A crime has been committed, and Peter just knows that Neal is responsible. Except he isn't. When it is discovered that Neal really is innocent, Peter has already crossed lines/said something cruel or hurtful. I would like a happy ending, though.
Don't Want: Character death, permanent injury, or for their friendship to be irreparably damaged
Rating: PG-13
Warning: Minor spoilers for 1x12 'Bottlenecked' & 2x14 'Payback' and major spoilers for 2x16 'Under The Radar'
Summary: In the wake of the aftermath of the U-boat incident, a case of bond forgery points unmistakably at a certain convicted bond forger well known to the FBI.

Summary: Neal gets a little unpredictable when running a high fever. And looking after him turns into a full-time job.
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] rabidchild67 as a response to the "Running Hot" multi-fandom fever comment fic meme
Prompt/Request: White Collar, Peter/Neal/El or gen, any rating
Would Like: This is totally not at all based on something that actually happened to me: Neal is sick, high fever, but completely out of his wits, and runs El ragged as she's trying to keep him from doing stupid or dangerous stuff, i.e. feeding oatmeal to the houseplants, nearly falling off his balcony, etc. Looking for something lighter-hearted, but serious would be good too.
Rating: PG-13

Prompt/Request: White Collar, Gen, Neal & whoever you like
Would Like: Neal gets incredibly sick while undercover, and the target of the undercover op is very, very dangerous. I would like the situation to be serious, lots of Peter worry and lots of nervous, uncertain, even scared Neal. And lots of comfort later on.

Author: TeeJay
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings: Neal, Peter, Elizabeth
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] nefhiriel for [livejournal.com profile] collarcorner Prompt Fest Round 6
Prompt Stuff )
Rating: PG-13
Warning: You might not want to read this if you have a problem with medical squick. And, uhm, yes, there will be Neal!Whump.
Summary: A migraine, a reception, punch that was spiked. A potentially hazardous combination for some, certainly a dangerous combination for Neal Caffrey.
Author's Note: First off, I didn't read [livejournal.com profile] kriadydragon's story before I wrote this one. (I've never even watched SGA, so...) Any similarities beyond the basic premise as given by [livejournal.com profile] nefhiriel above are strictly coincidental.
The title of this story is a snippet from a Panic! At The Disco song that I happen to like very much. There's more Panic! At The Disco lyrics interspersed throughout the story, but they're not essential because this isn't strictly a songfic. (Also, thanks for making me listen to that album again, I had forgotten how much I liked it.)
So, yeah, another Neal!Whump story. I'm starting to feel a little self-conscious about this. The compulsion to put the poor man through physical ailments time and again is slightly disconcerting. But let's face it. I'm a Neal!Whump and h/c junkie, ain't no way denying that. And if I could, I would sincerely apologize to the man. And maybe this is my twisted, yet productive way of voodoo-dolling. (Maybe I'm overanalyzing this, too.)
I know squat about the American justice system, so I hope what I wrote isn't too bogus. I mean, I know, Google is your friend, but there's only so much time I wanna spend on nailbitingly boring law stuff.
Thanks go out to the amazingly fast, encouraging and awesome [livejournal.com profile] rabidchild67 for the beta read.

Title: The Racing Rats
Author: TeeJay
Genre: Gen
Characters/Pairings: Peter, Neal
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Angst. Lots of it. Mild spoilers for 2x09 'Point Blank'
Summary: Peter didn't think Neal could run. Would run. Not while he was still wearing the anklet, and definitely not like this. (Songfic.)
Author's Note: This was written purely as Gen (because I'm simply not into slash at all), but I guess you can also read it with your slash goggles on. This should be a happy occasion for all the Neal/Peter shippers on my Flist, though it wasn't intended to be that.
That said, I should probably explain this: [livejournal.com profile] mistressnoir  posted on the [whitecollarfans] Yahoo mailing list that she was currently into the album "An End Has A Start" by The Editors, and that pretty much all the songs reminded her of White Collar. She challenged us to write a songfic. So I did. I must admit that their music isn't really my thing, but the lyrics of the song "The Racing Rats" struck a chord. Amy, I hope you like this, and I hope this is what you were thinking of.
This is set at an unspecified time after season two.

Characters/Pairings: Neal, Peter, Diana, Jones
Rating: PG
Summary: The cat is out of the bag. Neal Caffrey is really called Hubert Pretzelman. Now you'll get to find out why.
Author's Note: This is a follow-up to my drabble "Best Guarded Secret" (I strongly recommended to read it, otherwise this probably won't make sense). A few people asked me to also write Neal's 'explaining', and I couldn't resist. Most of the dialogue is [livejournal.com profile] afiawri's original reponse to my challenge to write a drabble about Hubert Pretzelman. Of course I'm posting this with her permission. I guess this also kinda explains why Peter couldn't find any information about Neal from before his 18th birthday. And now... enjoy the story of Hubert Pretzelman.

Characters: Peter, Neal (plus some Elizabeth, Mozzie, Diana and Jones)
Written for: [livejournal.com profile] kanarek13  for the [livejournal.com profile] collarcorner  Prompt Fest #3
Prompt/Request: What could possibly go wrong? (during a stakeout)
During a stakeout all hell breaks loose and Peter is forced to leave the van and help other agents. He tells Neal to stay put and not leave the van under any circumstances, but Neal is really worried about his partner and goes after Peter eventually. There's chaos outside, shots are being fired and Peter mistakes Neal for one of the bad guys and accidentally shoots him.
Would Like: Major angst trip, Peter being scared out of his mind, holding bleeding Neal in his arms while waiting for the EMTs to arrive, apologizing, trying to keep him awake. Bonus cookies for Neal eventually losing consciousness.
Don't Want: Neal dying. Peter's guilt trip to be long-lasting, as soon as Neal is awake, they should talk it out and realize that it was just a freak accident and it wasn't just Peter's fault.
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Gen
