It's cold out there, please wear a coat.
by Aproclivity
A few days before Christmas, Ruby calls Richard with information that Coralee rented a strongbox before she went missing and the lease is up. Richard invites Alex to come along and see what's inside after a key shows up by courier. Complicating this is the fact that someone stole his coat at the coffee shop before they left, it's cold and flu season, he's a complete asshole when he's sick and he's too damn stupid to get a new coat. So of course, the inevitable happens.

by Aproclivity
Four times Black Tapes characters were not drunk enough for something. This is a series of silly and fluffy and probably not at all connected stories. Just something light and easy!

Sober Up
by ActonBlack
Richard wakes up with a splitting headache, he's late, and Ruby is not happy.It's got a happy ending, non-traditional self-harm, and alcohol abuse. They don't "overcome" these issues in this fic, but they get through the black tapes drama. Happy ending.It's fluff for sure, I think it's got angst too.
