Summary
Before Solo Leveling, if Sung Jin Woo and Lee Joo-hee had been better teammates and friends, sometimes more than friends.
AKA Sung Jin Woo doesn’t seem like he has a lot of friends, or even people outside his family, on whom he can rely at the beginning of Solo Leveling, and he has even less towards the end. This is my way of correcting that.
Season 1 of the anime only.

Summary
Steve Harrington blames himself for the death of Eddie Munson. Within the weeks and months that follow, he finds himself in more grief than he thought possible - because maybe Steve Harrington missed Eddie Munson more than a regular person would. Maybe Steve Harrington figures out he liked Eddie Munson more than another boy should.
How does he cope with grief and love when they’re suddenly given a second chance?

Isla Zola, or Aria Davis?
At times, the girl standing in the mirror doesn't reflect the vision she sees. Most of the time, she doesn't understand what she sees - or, really, anything she feels.
One thing's for sure - HYDRA placing her deep undercover within the 107th might be their greatest mistake yet.

Summary
Dick had started to grow used to the hazy figure in his room. It always hung close to the edges of his vision, slightly see-through and fuzzy in a way that, at first glance, one could imagine it was really there. The kind of sight you’d easily shrug off as seeing things, looking back and finding the space empty.
The only difference? It was still there.

Jason dies, Dick starts having hallucinations, and Tim is trying his best.

Ultimate Life: A Life Series Fanfiction by ComsicJellyfish (AJMICKEY56)

Summary
After the events of Wild Life, Joel arrives in the Winner’s Lounge, where the previous winners reveal what—rather, who—the Life games are really for: the Watchers. Outraged and unwilling to just deal with this cruel fate, Joel refuses to associate with any of the others and keeps to himself while they await the next game. That is, until Scott (the only Winner who still makes an effort to befriend Joel after so long, despite Joel’s immense detestation), brings Joel back to the group just in time for the Watchers to stop by for a visit.
Disappointed by the Winners’ indifference (and, in turn, the staleness of their emotions), the Watchers strike a deal with them; the Winners will have three chances to get the Canary to join their ranks. If they succeed, the Watchers will let everyone go—forever.
But winning Ultimate Life is far from easy; the Winners will have to play dirty, betray their allies, and compromise everything they hold dear all while fighting their own emotional vices and playing by the Watchers’ twisted rules. Relationships were made to be tested, tears were formed to be shed, and sacrifices were born to be slaughtered, but just how much are the Winners willing to give up for a chance to succeed?

Summary
Regulus Black has always lived in the shadow of others—his parents, his brother, his House. All he’s ever wanted was to belong. But when the war tears at his loyalties and a devastating secret comes to light, Regulus is forced to confront the truth: belonging comes with a cost. To protect what little he still loves, he must fight a battle he never asked for—one that may demand everything.

Summary
Roy feels his soulmate die… on the same day as Jason Todd. He’s pretty sure it’s not a coincidence.
Now Jason is back, and Roy isn’t sure what to do about it. Does he even want a relationship with a newly-resurrected vigilante bent on revenge, especially now that he’s finally found some semblance of stability in his life? And if he does, how the hell is he supposed to go about it?

Summary
“I thought we were here to talk, Hood,” he says conversationally.
The man behind him hums. He’s taller than Roy had imagined, the sound coming from right by his ear.
“We’ll talk,” comes the equally casual reply. “Just had to make sure we’re on the same page, here.”
Roy snorts.
“Not sure we are, mine didn’t have ‘threaten with bodily harm’ written on it, for one,”
“My, my, Speedy, I’m impressed,” Hood drawls, one gloved finger tapping against his blade. “I wasn’t sure you could read.”Or: Roy and Jason over the years, in an amalgamation of Canon interactions Pre-New52.

Summary
In a world underwater, Wei Wuxian has never known anything but living in Lotus Cove with the Jiangs. They were his clan, his family, no matter how dysfunctional.
Enter Lan Wangji, the Second Serpent of the Lan Clan, who makes Wei Wuxian's heart flutter in ways he didn't know possible.
Through mischievous antics, bogus competitions, trials and tribulations, war and tragedy, the two can never seem to catch a break from the other.
Even death cannot put a permanent barrier between them, it seems.

Or, an MDZS merpeople AU. Aside from the mermaid traits, most of this story follows canon with a little extra sprinkled in, such as graphic gore and violence, original characters and backstories (including ones for existing characters), and a whole bunch of lore (and wherein the title may be a spoiler but oh well).

Summary
Edelgard von Hresvelg, ninth in line for the Adrestian Imperial throne, is not an especially important person.
Kindhearted and clever, certainly, and a touch awkward for all her charisma, but not important.
Not if you asked her, at any rate.Naturally, she has no idea how wrong she is.
Nor the influence she'll have on the lives of a shaggy, white-haired prince and their almost-equally-shaggy blue-haired professor.She knows nothing of the darkness rooted in Fódlan. No secrets, no hidden truths.
She only knows that the world can always be a kinder, better place.Inspired, of course, by An Eagle Among Lions.

Summary
The scrape of metal shrieks like an echo of the future (has he started screaming yet?) as it cracks against bone. It’s just him and a looming figure, caught in wavering time, the tremble of the last note slowly being dragged out at a recital. And he’s trembling under the fire of pain as his ribs snap–please, please stop–coughing, choking, begging like a broken record that screeches and rewinds, screeches and rewinds.
Time slips out from under him.
Or: George R.R. Martin's quote "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies" except Jason dies first.
