Title: Maybe It's Maybelline...
Series: TF2
Character/pairing: Scoutpauling
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Scout gets a little bit confused about women's beauty habits. This leads him to jumping to conclusions about just what Miss Pauling actually is.
Word count: 2,600
Author's note:
Inspired by this and other video trends of guys getting confused by women doing beauty stuff. Like I remember this one about dudes freaking out about false eyelashes. (Found it: here)

Also Scout was thinking of this.

I joked with my partner that this is Scout, and this happened.

Look, I was tired.

Also, this is Sarah's fault so it's hers.

Title: For Sale: Certainly Not Haunted House

rating: PG-13
word count: 4,672
Summary: With a little one on the way, Scout and Pauling go house shopping. One very desperate real estate agent tries to sell a house with a bloody history.
Author's note

This came from a bunch of things like this

content warnings:
canon-typical violence, dark humor, also mentions of era typical sexism/sexual harassment to an OC.

Timeline wise Expiration Date happened at some point and this is after some theoretical world where the story is finished.

For Sarah!

Title: I Fell In Love In The Back Of A Cop Car
Series: TF2
Character/pairing: Scoutpauling
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 4597
Summary: Of all the crimes to get caught for, she got caught for trespassing. Or, Scout, Miss Pauling, and the finer points of falling in love while being hauled in for questioning for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Author's note: I was minding my own business thrifting and "Cop Car" came on, and it was rather inspiring.
What I heard was the Keith Urban version, but here's a non-country cover.

Canon-typical gore mentioned? I don't think this has anything to do with latter comic canon.

And yeah, I will die on the hill of ADHD&Dyslexic!Scout. As someone who has both, a lot of Scout's mannerisms are a real mood. Like the knee bouncing? The inability to sit still? Yeah.

Also, this part wasn't inspired by it, but this video of a Boston guy freaking out about a Sunfish came up just as I was writing that part.

For Sarah.
