Summary
In his many years of taking on jobs for too-little pay, there’s one assignment he’s never worked. The other workers call it the “preschool brigade,” the FEDRA-school kids sent out into the field for what they call “work experience” to get them used to the real world. Really, it’s a behavioral tool, he knows, an example of “better act right or you’ll end up like these poor fuckers when you’re grown.”
He's deliberately never worked on one, uninterested in being put in charge of a kid doing a dangerous job they shouldn’t be. The kids that get sent on the preschool brigade are the ones FEDRA doesn’t necessarily care about getting back, after all, and there are things even adults shouldn’t be doing, not as untrained as most of them are.
And then comes the day one of the FEDRA guards assigned to his work detail that leads over a sullen-looking girl, who kicks rocks the entire way.

Summary
She tries to shake the thought of all of them out of her head. She wants to enjoy this. They fucking made it. No more taking turns sleeping. No more ignoring the rumbling of their stomachs and parched throats. They get to relax and bask in the glory of it all. So why does the thought of actually doing that make her sick to her stomach?
OR
Ellie and Joel make it back to Jackson. Ellie has a hard time forgetting the past and Joel shows her that she doesn't have to.

Summary
Tess is methodical, thorough, efficient. She does everything in two’s — bullets between eyes, boot pairs in rotation so they last longer, shivs tucked into her back pocket, curse words behind her teeth, orgasms ripping through her thanks to him. Even if she didn't demand them, Joel would deliver.

“I… understand what you’re going through-“ he started cautiously, and Ellie couldn’t help the bitter little laugh that escaped her.
“Oh, you understand?” she bit out like a cornered dog, pulling his jacket tighter around her as her skin crawled, remembering David’s touch, his sickening grin, “Some fucking freak tried to rape you too?”
Joel didn’t answer, meeting her eyes steadily, and Ellie’s throat closed up.
“No…”

Summary
If he didn’t keep holding on, he would once again be stuck in that moment when he saw the light fade from her eyes, taking his heart with it.
Tears threatened to spill. He blinked them away.
“Hey, look at me.”
He couldn’t look. He knew what he would see. He knew what Tommy would see. He knew what he would say. That he let her die.

Summary
She can feel the needle pierce her skin but it feels like it’s going straight through her rib and, before she can stop herself, she winces. Damnit.
In an attempt to pull herself back together, she breathes in through her nose before slowly exhaling again.
“Good girl,” Lena whispers almost absentmindedly, gently running a piece of tissue across the area she just tattooed, and Kara’s entire body freezes.

Summary
“It’s not enough. I need more sound,” Kara says, shaking her head. She sharply turns to look at Lena with a determined face, and Lena visibly startles.
Lena lightly clears her throat. “What now?”
“We’re going to have fake sex, Lena,” Kara says with a straight face. “I need you to moan for me.”
Or:
Sam and her girlfriend have obnoxiously loud sex in their dorm room. Kara comes up with a plan with Lena to make Sam realize how loud they are. Things don't go as planned.
Not that Kara’s complaining, of course. Fake/pretend sex

Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Iron Man (Movies), Marvel Cinematic Universe
17 Apr 2019
Summary
An aerie is a recessed ledge on the side of a cliff. It is commonly chosen by birds to build their nests upon, due to the inherent protection they provide. Many migratory birds will return to the same cliffside so long as it has adequate aeries for the colony.
Humans also need a safe place to grow and build a family. They just go about it differently.
In the case of Tony Stark, sometimes "differently" is an understatement.

Summary
It's a story about college-aged Kara and Lena. Kara is trying to handle her senior year at NCU while doubling as Supergirl. She's also trying to juggle being an intern/working at CatCo. Lena is trying to finish her graduate research while living life as a Luthor; she just needs a hug. They're both just living their lives when aliens start disappearing. Kara/Supergirl is tasked with figuring it all out but how is Lena connected to all this? An easy senior year is all Kara wanted and it winds up being anything but that.
Or
The one where Kara is a college student while being Supergirl. The Luthors could potentially be up to something and she'll have to get to the bottom of it one way or another. A (loose) reimagining of the current story if Kara and Lena were a little younger and in college. Plenty of angst and eventual fluff. Slow burn but of the bearable variety. Even sprinkled in a bit of suspense to keep things interesting.
