Summary
Steve Harrington is normal, everyone thinks so. Captain of the swim team, starter on the varsity basketball team, most popular boy in school, absolute heartthrob, handsome, and rich. He's King Steve, Steve “the Hair” Harrington. He's an all-American boy growing up in the heartland. And he's spent years working very hard to keep it that way, because the truth is the last thing he is, is normal.
No, Steve Harrington has a dark past he's desperate to escape, however that gets much harder when Will Byers goes missing and Steve just can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong in Hawkins, something that's pointing straight to his past. But everything will be fine, right? All he has to do is pretend everything is normal.
Or, another lab experiment Steve story because I can’t get it out of my head, so I’m sharing it with everyone.

Summary
Steve's feet stumbled more than walked, but Hopper didn't care. He half-carried, half-dragged the kid toward the emergency room doors, his jaw clenched so tight it ached. Every step felt like it took too long.
As the two of them started to slowly stumble to the front of the ER, Hopper took a brief moment to think about it. Took a moment to think how despite everything—despite barely knowing the kid, despite all his preconceptions and assumptions, despite the amount of times Steve had purposefully acted like a smart-ass punk just to piss him off—Hopper had realized something tonight:
Steve Harrington was a good kid.

Summary
Oww, Peter thought blandly as he shifted- no, scratch that, tried to shift- onto his back but quickly decided that wasn’t in his best interest. Voices, both his own and not, swam in his head like a wave beating against his forehead.
“They’re coming here because of me, right? Because I’m Peter Parker? So cast a new spell, make everyone forget who Peter Parker is. Make everyone forget me.”
“It wouldn’t be enough. Your very presence would destabilize this universe.”
Peter finally managed to roll himself over onto his back, ignoring the sharp pain that shot through his spine at the movement enough to sit up and look around. He was in an alley which thankfully held no occupants save himself and the trash littering the ground.
“But I can… I can send you away. To a place where there is no Peter Parker. No Spiderman.”

Also known as:
The probably- definitely- overdone 'Peter Parker goes to Gotham' trope, but I write what I want to read, so eh.

Summary
Hood’s fingers twitch, anger-rage-fury shaking the Talon’s large frame. “You’ll really just lay back and let me mutilate you, huh?”
Oh. Finally. It’s not the place Dick would have chosen- but it’s not unusual for an owl to bring live prey back to its nest before killing it.
He folds to his knees again with an affirming warble, even as every line of Hood‘s body draws tight as a bowstring with murderous rage.

No matter. His problem would be dealt with by morning.

Summary
The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.
Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?
Or,
In which Tony does not, in fact, intend to take over the world.
...unfortunately, everyone else missed that particular memo.
[gradual divergence from canon, starting at the end of Iron Man 3. In which it's Tony's self-awareness, rather than his support system, that becomes a cryptid sometime during Phase II.]

Summary
(READ TAGS! there's more info + warnings there!!!)
Stanley trudged up to the open telephone booth, the weight of his eyelids threatening to pull the rest of his body down with them. Rain pounded on the glass covering. He grabbed the nearly-broken red phone with all the strength he could muster and pressed his finger down on the jumble of numbers his mind had somehow maintained. Lifting the speaker to his ear, he closed his eyes and took a sharp breath as the dull ringing began to play. After a few moments, it ceased, and a voice spoke on the other end.
“Hello? This is Stanford Pines.”
—
A fic that's probably been written before- an AU where Stan doesn't wimp out when he calls Ford. The two actually have to sort things out. Also, Fiddleford is there.
AKA
The events of journal 3 but Stan is there. Diverges further from canon later on.
updates weekly on sundays if all goes well, tags will be added later on

Summary
A scene we've all seen with a fun new twist, Stan and Ford fight in the upper parts of the house. Who knows what could happen with all those uncataloged specimens just laying around the place?
Stan rushes to his brother's aid, only to have his hopes raised and shattered in the same breath, an encounter with a sadistic demon, and an anomalous experience that leaves him and his brother both younger and not at all wiser. Not necessarily in that order.

Summary
Burning, searing, white-hot agony spreads from his right shoulder until it’s all-consuming, and a howl is torn from his throat, raw and rough, tearing at his throat like ripping off a scab, and he barely registers the boot is still pinning him, he wouldn’t have been able to move anyway, his muscles locked up, and all he can do is scream-

Summary
"My, My head hurts," he replied dumbly, "And I had a… A really terrible nightmare."
And god, did the last few years feel like a nightmare. A horrible, never-ending nightmare that twisted into shapes Jon never thought possible and took more from him than he knew he had to take.
"Must have been some nightmare," Tim hummed.
"It was," Jon laughed humorlessly.----------------
After the conclusion of the Watcher's Crown, Jon finds himself waking up in a much younger version of his own body, one that's still working with Tim and Sasha in research. Jon refuses to let this opportunity pass him by, refuses to let this world fall to the same fate as his. He'll do it better this time. He'll save everyone, no matter the cost.

Summary
When amnesiac Dick Grayson ran away to Blüdhaven, he had hoped that his family would leave him alone and he's done a pretty good job of rejecting them, even changing his name. That is until Jason Todd shows up, the brother he hasn't met yet, who stubbornly refuses to go away. He offers Dick protection from the enemies he can't remember, nothing more, nothing less. And when his memories start to trickle back, Dick is thrown out by the emotions and glimpses of his past, made worse when one of those enemies gets too close and his family get closer.

Summary
Six months ago, Renegade broke free from his master. He’d had no home. No family. Had learned nothing beyond what he'd needed to be a predator.
Now free, he has vowed to use those skills to help instead of hurt.Only Nightwing really shouldn't have picked Blüdhaven for his debut. The neighbors in Gotham are kinda... a lot.
Like, A LOT a lot.
OR
Dick joins the batfam fashionably late. -
Tags
Summary
The Bats were dead and Dick was the only one left alive. He had nothing left for him so why shouldn’t he join them?
Waking up back in time was not the plan but Dick wasn’t complaining. He finally has his family back and he will not lose them again.
Robin has always been able to do what Batman couldn’t. It was okay that Bruce won’t kill. Dick wouldn’t ask him to compromise his morals.
But he had no such restrictions. He doesn’t mind killing, getting his hands dirty, and being a monster if it means his family is alive.
.
Or a Dark Dick Grayson who is just a tad overprotective of his family. Just a tad.
