Summary
Shouta’s plan had been ill-defined and desperate from the start, but he figures the important shit boiled down to, “Change as little as possible, make sure Midoriya doesn’t get himself killed, and stock up on lychee jelly pouches because that flavor got discontinued three years from now.” Keeping it simple’s always better, and he’s normally good at improvising.
Somewhere along the way, he must’ve fucked up since now he has:
A quirkless problem child hanging off of his every word
His best friend going through a sexuality crisis thanks to said problem child’s mom
His other best friend clinging to him like a security blanket
Some two-bit mob boss threatening him with bouquets of daffodils
To wring the number one hero’s fucking neck for not telling him anything useful before sending him decades into the past
All he did was walk Izuku Midoriya home. It wasn’t meant to turn into whatever mess this is.

"I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."
"Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"
"Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.
"Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."
"Let's not joke."

Summary
The generation that came of age during the occupation of Earth by the Combine, colloquially known as ‘The Last Generation’, was a unique assembly of soldiers, survivors, and fighters. Their childhood nursery rhymes sang the legend of their liberator Gordon Freeman; their early education was in survival instead of literacy. To a human who had not spent their childhood in warfare, they were borderline incomprehensible.
To Gordon Freeman, their college professor, they were a headache.
In which Gordon Freeman teaches community college, Alyx Vance has her great coming of age story, and Barney Calhoun pines like extinct vegetation. And in which everybody grows older, but nobody grows up.

Summary
So, it didn’t start out like this.
Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-
So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.
It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:
“ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”
--
A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

Summary
The result of their monthly visits to Jim's Nana was a generous stock of fruit, more than enough to share even if Stede hadn’t been inclined towards good manners. That was natural for the Gentleman Pirate, yes? So it was nothing at all to offer Izzy the last of his orange, wrapped in an embroidered silk handkerchief to keep his fingers clean.
The inconsequential nature of the gesture made it all the more shocking when Izzy flinched, staring at the orange as if Stede had just offered him salvation, not a bit of fruit.

Written for the High Seas event! Each chapter will include one of the prompts. Updated daily until the event is over.

Summary
It was a truth universally acknowledged that an angel in possession of no memory must be in want of a wife.
No, that was the wrong book. The wrong line. Aziraphale frowned.
“What,” the gentleman before him asked, “and I mean what, are you doing here?”
-----------------
Or, two years after things fall apart, Aziraphale shows up at Crowley's doorstep without his memories. The easy part is getting it back, the hard part is getting them back together.
(Update: now featuring a cover by the wonderful @ineffableclassics!)

Summary
The last thing Peter sees is Tony's horrified, heartbroken expression leaning over him. The guilt in his eyes is almost worse than the burning pain that's taking Peter apart piece by piece. The world starts to go dark.
There's a flash of gold and green. For one moment, he finds himself standing amongst the Guardians and others. And then darkness again. It feels like blinking; an extended period of nothingness that ends as abruptly as it begins. One moment there’s nothing, the next there’s light.
“Easy,” a woman says. Her words are gentle, and carry a slight accent that he can’t place. "I'm called Wonder Woman. What's your name?"

Summary
**BIG SPOILERS (if, like me, you got to this game over a decade late)**
A final scene for Dragon Age II, picking up from the moment the party walk out of the Gallows, because when the credits rolled it was like a spear going into my heart and I had to just... they had to SAY THINGS to each other.
In the aftermath of Meredith's defeat, Hawke's party make their way out of the city calling them its enemy. They are exhausted and fractured, unsure what there is for them and what they can still mean to each other and Thedas. They stop at the remains of The Hanged Man and finally break the silence.
[CW: Grief, displacement, personal conflict, loss of temper, emotional pain, negative self-talk, Fenris' fantasy version of chronic pain, fantasy oppression that isn't that fantasy, gallows humour, some descriptions of animal remains in the first part.
Please read the start notes before you yell at me about Anders discourse. Also please don't yell at me about Anders discourse. And yes I know I've made them walk a totally illogical route through Kirkwall, they needed to for art.]

Bookmarker's Notes
I have read a lot of fics but this is probably the best ever breakdown of every little thing in da2 that doesn't make characters hate each other, or doom them all, or not talk about their problems. It is love and desperation and friendship and humour. beautiful work.
