Summary
Snape rolled his eyes. "You're not scared of blood, Potter. For one, you're a Gryffindor. For another, you seem to face down the Dark Lord with alarming regularity. If you were afraid of blood, you wouldn't have made it past your first year in this castle."
"What do you want me to say?" Harry shouted, suddenly filled with the same irrational anger that'd been so hard to shake since Cedric's death. He jumped to his feet, unable to sit any longer. "What would you have me do? I couldn't make myself break skin, okay? Is that so hard to believe?"
--
Or: a potion requires blood as an ingredient. Harry's afraid of a relapse. Snape just wants to know why Harry Vanished a perfectly decent brew. They come to an understanding.

Summary
After the War against Gaea, Percy finds himself struggling in the life he worked so hard to get back to. The more he tries to fit back in, pushing down his powers and emotions after the war, the more things seem to fall apart. As Olympus prepares to officially reopen at the Winter Solstice, Hermes takes notice that something is off with the Savior of Olympus. But when he asked for help from Hades, none of them could imagine what Percy’s trip to the Pit led to and what it will mean for the hero.
Or Percy finally reckons with the consequences of challenging Akhlys with a little help from his immortal family, who he might be around for a lot longer than he thought.

Summary
I grieved for my future self. Now that I felt this kind of relief flooding my body, my resolve cracked on the floor like glass, the pieces skidding under my own feet. I didn’t know how I would ever put it back together. But even more distressing, I didn’t know how I would be able to deny him. Our bond. That instinct within him and that had been growing in me infinitesimally each day I saw him, touched him, thought about him…
Because even though Emily had said theirs was triggered by a single moment, I had had a growing suspicion, no matter how much I tried to deny it, that ours was different. Gradual.
That, without even realizing it, I had stumbled into something I hadn’t meant to and was now caught in it. Like a web that fused to my own skin, indistinguishable.
And, finally, that any more than one more weekend with him would kill me, if I ever became a vampire. Would kill us. Swifter and harder and more agonizing than death at the hands of the Volturi could ever be.

OR an Eclipse re-write with everything we love: slow burn, angst, fluff, smut, and a new take on imprinting that isn’t gross. The first few chapters pull heavily from Eclipse, but the writing after those is primarily all my own!

Fucking Captain America by Angelworks
Fandoms: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Iron Man (Comics), Captain America - All Media Types, Marvel
31 May 2024
Tags
Summary
After the fall of the twin towers a resurgence of patriotism (plus a glut of money from new defense contracts) result in Howard Stark’s expedition finding Captain America in the ice. He throws a party to celebrate. Anyone who is anyone in the industry is there.
Teenager Tony Stark couldn’t care less. He has other, bigger problems on his mind. Like his impending mating/sale to family friend Obadiah Stane “for the good of the company”. For starters, the man is at least 40 years older than him and is seriously old school- he insists on a purity clause in the marriage contract and everything. As an omega, Tony theoretically has rights, but laws are just fees for doing what you want when you’re rich enough, a fact his father loves to point out.
He has maybe 10 minutes of freedom before people realize that he’s missing and desperate times call for desperate measures- like fucking the Captain America impersonator he just met on the balcony.

Summary
(I am Peter Benjamin Parker, and I exist.)
- - -
Three months after his existence was erased, Peter Parker was not doing so well. His solace came from knowing that at the very least he had managed to save his city in the end.
Apparently, though, Peter realized as Doctor Strange explained to him that he had to give up even more, losing everything-and-then-some just wasn't enough.
OR
The multiverse continues to collapse in on itself. Doctor Strange discovers the source of the problem as Peter Parker. The only viable solution is to remove Peter from his original universe so that no more entities will be drawn to his presence there.
Peter is sent to a world that lost its Peter Parker, and finds himself lost in a sea of people he'd grieved who had all grieved him in kind.

Summary
An unknown spider-mutate helps a murder-convict escape from prison. The Avengers assemble.

Before he knows it, he is far, far more involved in this case than he ever expected to be.The convict’s name: May Parker.

Summary
“That was a disaster. The press is having a field day.”
“It wasn’t my fault,” Tony defends. “That Spider-Guy never knows when to shut up. He distracted me.”
“Your reputation took a blow,” Pepper tells him. “Which will be fixed, of course. I’ve already set it up.”
“Set what up? What, am I going to make flower arrangements with the elderly?”
Pepper slides a piece of paper towards him. “Try an orphan. His name is Peter Parker. His biggest dream is to meet you. But…” She hesitates.
“But?”
“Apparently he doesn’t talk much. Sometimes not at all. Trauma-related.”
“A smart kid who doesn’t talk? Perfect combination. If only all my employees were like that.”

Tony Did Not Anticipate This by Spidergirl1809

Summary
Tony Stark had fought aliens. He’d saved the world. Why was one teenager so stressful?
Peter snuck abord the Quinjet on a dangerous mission. In retrospect, Tony probably should have anticipated that. Then again, he'd never been very good at anticipating things when it came to Peter Parker. Like how much he actually cared about the damn kid. Or how this mission would go so wrong.
...Or that he'd ever be so thankful for Steve Rogers.

Summary
Every evening when May stumbles in after a twelve-hour shift, she looks more tired than the day before, and their overdue bills are piling up. When Peter became Spider-Man, he had promised himself to be responsible. No stupid teenager stuff. He was going to be mature, damn it. And rule number two, after ‘being mature’ was ‘make things easier for aunt May’.
And then Mr. Stark gives him a gift that just makes everything more complicated.Bookmarked by Background_emi

Summary
Peter Parker. 16 years old. Recently emancipated from the foster system and moved into the dingy villa his deceased parents left him. Which apparently means he has to deal with various stray animals and human beings who keep choosing his house as their refuge. He is so unprepared for this shit.
And then stupid Tony Stark randomly decides to insert himself into Peter’s life, with his dad-sweaters and his boo-boo fixing and his casseroles.
He thinks Peter’s parents are just out of town on a business trip. Peter is in no mood to correct him.- Language:
