Title: All the flowers of All the Tomorrows
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17


Summary:
Jared is a very successful goth/metal rock star used to hiding beneath a mask, but two years after the death of his father, he has had enough of hiding, of being something he doesn't recognise, and finds himself journeying home to Scotland. The house, estate and garden that his father left him need some work, as does Jared, but more importantly he discovers that his first, and probably only, love (Jensen) is still there, and is now running a successful market garden and keeping Jared's mother's rose garden in full bloom. Jensen agrees to help Jared renovate and restore Jared's home but he was badly hurt when Jared ran away to become a rock star. Jared, himself, finds it difficult to be back in Scotland - he had his reasons for running, but he begins to understand that the conclusions he came to when he was seventeen might have been based on bad information. In discovering the truth and tending to his mother's garden and helping Jensen out with his, Jared realises the value of home, of Jensen and also finds himself, and its a long way from the tortured, dark soul that was his alter ego.

Summary: When Jared Padalecki was 15, he loved 2 things: the small traveling rodeo he worked at that summer & JR, a cocky 16- year-old also working there. Jared had planned to run away with the rodeo until the night when it all changed, & JR disappeared with only a rushed goodbye and a kiss
Now 15 years later, Jared is fighting to keep his family ranch after the death of his father when a call from an old friend takes him back to that same rodeo and to a familiar face
Jensen Ackles had never known a good moment in his young life. Running away at 14, he planned to keep running to avoid those looking for him. Working a rodeo the summer he was 16 was the only bright spot he’d ever known. That was until his past caught up with him, and he had to run from the rodeo and from Jared.
Fifteen years of misery has Jensen now struggling to find himself and avoid a man who still wants to control him. When old friend offers a solution, he finds himself face to face with Jared.
Together the two men could be the answer to each other’s problems, but as Jensen struggles to heal from years of abuse, Jared not only has to fight to keep his ranch but also help his friend heal and learn to trust again and maybe even love.

Title: The Sound of Silence
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Summary:
Jensen is deaf, and he starts teaching American Sign Language classes at his college after losing his job. Jared is forced to take ASL as an elective class after a dare from his roommate Chad, but he's immediately bothered by his teacher for some unknown reason, and ends up being a jerk to him, also refusing to pay attention to his classes. One night, Jared is walking to a bar and is attacked by three guys who beat him up. Jensen finds him and tries to call for help, using his voice which he never does since he's ashamed of it. Jared ends up with a brain injury that causes aphasia, a temporary loss of speech. He doesn't know who saved him, only remembers a voice.

Chad convinces Jensen to help Jared, since he's feeling very down after the loss of speech, and asks Jensen to teach Jared ASL so he can communicate. After a rough start they are able to bond and become very close, with Jensen teaching Jared much more than just a way to communicate, and realizing he has also a lot to learn from Jared in return.

Title: Light From a Burning Bridge
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Jensen Ackles is no stranger to loss. His parents are gone and today he’s burying his only brother after a rescue gone wrong. Jensen knows the tradition—that the fire department would send someone to help him as a way of honoring their late captain—but the last thing he needs is another firefighter hanging around, reminding him of what he lost. He especially doesn’t want to see this particular firefighter. Jared Padalecki is young, wild, cocky, and always chasing the next rush. After parting ways three years ago, Jensen thought he’d never have to see Jared again. Little did he know that Jared was transferred to his brother’s station just months before his death, catapulting them back into each other’s lives. Now, if Jensen has any chance of climbing out of this darkness, he’s going to have to accept a lifeline from the man he swore he’d never forgive. Featuring action, life or death situations, and hot firemen in uniform!

A set of 5 icons for the themed icons and drabbles special currently running at nekid_spike.  From the 3 offered song titles I chose "Changes".

I decided to go with the changes in appearance Spike has donned over the years....technically, the first one is William the night he became a vampire, but I consider that the first and biggest change  ...and I'm sure we aren't going to quibble over petty technicalities!   :D
