    Summary

    Nicolò looks sheepish. "I killed you yesterday, and you awoke at the same time, the same place. But when I die, I wake at different times, different places. This bolt," he tosses it to Yusuf and it lands in the dirt by his knee, "it killed me yesterday, but I woke up many years from now. I lived several lifetimes in those places before returning here and pulling it from my neck."

     

     

    Nicky's lives and deaths are different. He is unstuck from time - at every death he revives into a different point in his life. Each time he is struck down he wonders, will he awaken to deserts and swords? Will it be gunshots in cities? Joe and Nicky build a fractured life together, falling in love across two different sets of centuries, then patiently waiting for the other to fall in love too. He meets the rest of their little family out of order, but they still build a family around Nicky's involuntary time-traveling.

    Summary

    Before Erik has a chance to join the Marines, become a killer, and become a villain, Wakanda calls him home. But his delight quickly turns to dismay when he realizes he's been brought back not as an honored prince, but as a political pawn for the king to offer in marriage to one of his most fractious vassals: Lord M'Baku of the Jabari.

    Summary

    It’s a pity that Sirius thinks him most beautiful like this, when his eyes are hard and burning, and his lips are drawn into a thin line to hold the curses on his tongue. Severus' chest rises and falls in shallow breaths underneath the shimmering nightgown. Perhaps, someday, someone will see him when he is whole, and think him beautiful; but for now, while Severus is still falling apart, there is at least Sirius to bathe in the glory of it.

    Summary

    This five-part series is a Kakashi-centric time travel fix-it. It starts out pretty dark, but the real heart of the story is one of healing, and there are happy endings on the horizon. Specific warnings are included with each chapter.

    Each story has its own arc and is complete in itself, but I recommend starting from the first story and reading through chronologically; the series is meant to be taken as a whole. Hope you enjoy!

    Series and story titles are from History Has Its Eyes on You, from the Hamilton Soundtrack by Lin-Manuel Miranda.

    Summary

    His feet grow blistered beneath the swath of fabric he’s wrapped around them, his hands too, callouses grown from years of swordwork flayed and eroding in the frigid air. There are nicks all along his scalp, the aftermath of escaping the clutch of a gang of pale-eyed prisoners that are relentless in disallowing him his slumber. Hans doesn’t speak, hasn’t in days, just grunts and whimpers pathetically enough to convince the foremen of their superiority. He’s never felt less a prince, throwing elbows to manage his own nourishment, pulling hair and biting to manage what safety he can after the shifts. He rarely finds victory unharmed, his lip constantly split, bruises that swell and make him wonder the point of even rising from his rest.
