"Get your god-damned head in the game, Parker, instead of losing it." Also posted on AO3.
C'était une nuit noire, sous la lune, lorsque nous avons trouvé le Portail Dimensionnel. Malheureusement, les gens étranges avaient d'autres projets pour moi... Ils m'ont activé.
La tête légèrement penchée et un imperceptible sourire sur les lèvres, elle observait le bâtiment. Elle s'était déjà rendue dans ce lieu mais avait décidé de ne pas faire part de cette information aux deux hommes à ses côtés. Dans sa discrète pochette, elle gardait précieusement l'invitation trouvée une semaine plus tôt dans une élégante boîte en cerisier. [post lightest hours]
Miss Parker and Jarod are safe, hiding out from the Centre in the wilderness of Wyoming. If they don't take the fight to the Centre soon, however, the Centre will bring the fight to them. Assumes you have read The Substitute, The Endowment Effect and Two Birds, Westwards.
On the way westward, the travelling party end up at a small airport in Wisconsin. Now it's Miss Parker's turn to project all her childhood trauma on a rando underdog, à la Jarod. This fic assumes that you've read the two previous stories in the series, The Substitute and The Endowment Effect.
Ten years after Carthis, MP & J live in hiding with their family. The Centre still exists, but Lyle is no longer threatening their freedom. But one day a silent enemy coming from their past suddenly appears. Parker and Jarod are forced to remember what happened ten years before, when everything changed… Last update 8.7.21
When Mr Lyle gets an underhanded head start on chasing a lead, Miss Parker is forced to make a deal with Jarod. A sort-of case fic, with some flexible moving parts. Post-Carthis.
An overheard threat to the Centre, an secret long-hidden within the Centre itself, and a pair of new projects that the Centre has kept carefully hidden from everyone makes for a minefield that not everyone is going to survive. Can Jarod, Miss Parker and her team band together to rescue innocent victims from the evil of not one, but TWO corporations that have no scruples?
Quelques temps après Carthis, Jarod décide de couper les ponts avec le Centre. Il ne peut se résoudre à le faire sans rendre d'abord visite à Parker. Cette décision sera responsable du changement progressif de la nature de leur relation. Comment concilier leur jeu diurne avec celui qui évolue à la nuit tombée ?
Miss Parker needs to trust somebody. She's just not sure Jarod is the best choice. (This is a slight AU that assumes that Miss Parker found out about Jarod's acquaintance with Thomas almost immediately after the end of Wake Up rather than a year later. Other events, up until Wake Up, follow canon.)
Thomas hated being dead but he was still watching over her. Written for the Not Prime Time 2014 challenge.
Post IOTH one shot.
This is a set of one shots that may someday be broadened out into longer stories. For now, they just are what they are. (periodic additions may occur)
Depuis son retour de l'île Mademoiselle Parker n'est plus la même, mais pourquoi?
The vast majority of the family called it the curse. A couple of Aunties, Kono and a few of the other more optimistic ones called it a gift.
This is a sequel to a story written earlier The Last Chapter. This story focuses on the Centre and the path to a better future. Jarod is married to Zoe, and Parker, Lyle and Sydney are running the Centre for good again. But the adventure is just beginning.
It's been five years since Miss Parker left the Centre, but now past mistakes have come back to threaten her present happiness. Can she find a way to work with old friends and foes alike to secure a brighter future... or any future at all? This is the sequel to WHAT PRICE FREEDOM.
John Watson is normal. Ridiculously normal. Average. Boring. In fact, the people who raised him are disappointed at how he turned out. They shouldn't be. After all, Pretenders have the ability to become anything they want to be, and all John's ever wanted to be was normal.
Time has passed, some wounds have scarred, others have festered.
When Sydney asks for help, Jarod answers. Post Island of the Haunted.
Miss Parker has a series of strange fairy tale dreams with a message from her mother. Meanwhile, someone tries to assassinate her, and Jarod and Miss Parker must work together to find the culprit.

Set after the last PRETENDER movie. Jarod finds pieces of the scrolls and uses them against the Center. Jarod can finally have a life with the woman he loves. Lyle escaped the Center before it fell and can't be found. When Jarod finds him, he claims he's changed. Is it possible? Try it and review please! Mike Delfino is Lyle Parker.
What if Jarod was brought back to the Centre, but he was a baby?
After eight years will Jarod and Miss Parker finally be free of the Centre?

Parce que le goût du risque, c'est elle qui le lui avait donné.
