This is incredibly late! I am going to go ahead and rearrange the checkpoints in the schedule to fit this in. But here is the first checkpoint, I am excited to see how everyone is doing!
Its that time! Welcome to the first checkpoint, these aren't mandatory so if you want to skip it that's fine. If you haven't started yet please don't panic, you still have plenty of time :D

Title: New Doors
Author(s):
sarhea
Artist:
Crossover: Naruto, InuYasha
Type: Het
Rating: NC17, MA
Word Count: ~19300
Characters/Pairings: Higurashi Kagome/Uchiha Itachi, Team 7, Uchiha Mikoto, Kyuubi, Sesshoumaru, Tsunade
Warnings: minor violence, off-side deaths, sexual intimacy, biting, knife-play, BDSM
Spoilers: Too many to count since this is an off-branch from canonverse.
Summary: Itachi Uchiha is a respected Konoha ANBU captain being pressured into marriage. Feeling cornered, he uses an unconventional method to thin out the pool of candidates. Enter Kagome, a traveling miko looking for… someone. How else could these two possibly meet?
Author’s Notes: To BT who (despite RL) managed to squeeze the time to provide some feedback to improve cohesiveness; to cut out whole scenes and add many others.

Title: Sleep of Angels
Author(s):
windfallswest
Artist:
sunryder
Crossover: D.C.U. (Batman Beyond)/Veronica Mars/Eastern Promises/The Pretender
Type: manslash
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: almost 70K, what the hell?
Characters/Pairings: Terry McGinnis/Nikolai Luzhin
Warnings: Graphic depictions of violence
Spoilers: Variously skewed ones for the first seasons of Veronica Mars and The Pretender, the first and second seasons of Batman Beyond, and the film Eastern Promises
Summary: On a stakeout, Veronica Mars finds out more than she bargained for about the Russian mob and her classmate Terry McGinnis. Terry McGinnis is Batman, and also sort of secretly banging Nikolai Luzhin, a police mole running the Russian mob. Veronica wants to be more involved, and Terry wants his life to be less complicated. Bruce Wayne might want his old protégé, Dick Grayson, to stay in Blüdhaven; but Dick didn't ask him. The police definitely want to put a lid on Batman, and Nikolai probably wants for people to stop shooting at him.
Author’s Notes: Latest in a series that starts with We Shadows, which you don't need to read first. Sick thanks to my beta,
htebazytook., who beta'd this in less time than it took me to code it. Seriously. Also to
sunryder for making really great art for a superconfusing crossover!

Title: Every Purpose Under Heaven
Author(s):
shirleyann66
Artist:
satavaisa
Crossover: Iron Man (movieverse)/Haven
Type: Gen with a touch of Het
Rating: PG-13 for bad language.
Word Count: 21,109
Characters/Pairings: Tony Stark/Pepper Potts; Nathan Wuornos/Audrey Parker
Warnings: None.
Spoilers: Anything in both Iron Man movies is fair game, as is everything in both seasons of Haven.
Summary: It was just another day in the office for Tony Stark, fighting evildoers and trying to save the world. Then one minute, he's flying through the sky, dodging missiles, and the next he's naked, lying in a forest in Maine, staring at two guys who have never heard of Tony Stark - or Iron Man.
Nathan Wuornos and Duke Crocker are on a mission: to find their friend, Audrey Parker, the only person who can help them against the supernatural Troubles that plague the town of Haven. They stumble upon a naked man with a glowing object embedded in his chest, claiming to be a superhero. Now a man of science and a town that defies science are about to meet, and the search for answers gets even more complicated.
Just another day in the office, actually. For Haven.
Author’s Notes: It's still the 23rd where I am and I've been trying for over an hour to get this story posted to my LJ. I'll add the LJ links tomorrow.

Title: Echos
Author(s):
creepylicious
Artist: /
Crossover: Bandom/American Horror Story/Lost Souls
Type: gen with slash
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 15.252
Characters/Pairings: Gerard Way/Ghost
Warnings: ghosts
Spoilers: for the book a bit, AHS first season
Summary: Roadtrip fic with ghosts.
Ghost was still looking at the man in the window. “I'm sorry,” he said eventually.
“What for?” the man asked, inhaling sharply.
“That you're stuck here with someone who doesn't love you anymore like you want him to,” Ghost said and then bit his lip, because people didn't always want to hear these things. Even dead people didn't want to hear these things. Especially dead people. Maybe. He wasn't sure.
The man exhaled another lungful of smoke. He sighed. “Yeah, I'm sorry too.” He sounded resigned.
Author’s Notes: Thanks to my awesome beta
