Title: Won't Have the Nerve to Say No
Characters/Pairing: Mark/Roger/Mimi
Word Count: 5592
Rating: NC17
Summary: So take me in from the storm... You won't have the nerve to say no. Total PWP.
Notes: Started for

speed_rent challenge #250 (using the prompt for challenge #32) and

seriouslyrent's Saturday prompt ("Valentine's Day"). Being neurotic or just... special like I am, I decided to try to include as many other of the first

speed_rent prompts as I could. I got 21, 28, 44, and 47. I meant to finish it as a Christmas present for

lionessvalenti, but... I didn't manage that. And then it was supposed to be a Valentine's Day present. And then a "yay, you moved to New York!" present. And then a "sorry you had to leave New York" present. ...Now it's just an "I'm sorry I fail so hard!" present. Enjoy your smut, you.
Disclaimer: I don't own Rent. Or Mark, or Roger, or Mimi. Thank you.

( Valentine's Day... Pan across the empty lot. )

Notes: Written as a New Year's present for

lionessvalenti... because I was a loser and didn't finish her Christmas fic on time.

Title: Somewhere Along the Line

Summary: With Roger, things always go wrong somewhere along the line – and those failures always have consequences.
Notes: Written for

speed_rent challenge #257.
Disclaimer: I don't own Rent or any of its characters. As always lately, Roger and Mark are very much based on Tim Howar and Christopher Hanke's versions of them.

Word Count: 2745

Summary: There are reasons Benny's with Mimi, even if he doesn't want to admit them to himself – most of those reasons have to do with his little sister.
Notes: I started to write this for a

speed_rent challenge, but didn't finish it on time, so I decided to just disregard the rest of the prompts and go on to finish the story. I did fit it into

fanfic100 prompt #24. The plotbunny itself, by the way, I blame on

starletfallen, who encouraged it when it should have been shot on sight. Set in the April Coffin series (Her Name Was...).
Disclaimer: I don't own Rent, Benny or Mimi, and this version of April is borrowed from

soscaredtolove.
