Summary
He’s clever, they always said, which really meant don’t trust him. But when Claude pieced apart his walls to let someone inside they were always surprised to find that he wasn’t the snake they’d been expecting. He was ambitious, of course, but ambition in the hands of good men is a blessing, not a curse. And when he described the tenets of his vision for the future it was easy to believe that clever was simply a synonym for kind.
He’ll betray you, they said, already sitting in his palms, but when he drew his hands into fists to crush them they still bothered to cry out, why?

Summary
“He doesn’t waste time, he tackles the man out of the way, he goes down hard, weighs more than Ryker would have thought, and he barely dodges out of the way of his arms before the man can get a hold on him. He rolls off and starts sprinting across the parking lot.
“Ryker!”
A name.
His name.
He doesn’t have a name at the Farm, just a number.
He spins around to look at the man.
And it’s Ortega.”
-
What if Step actually called Ortega when he escaped the Farm a second time?

Summary
Dying is the best thing Emery ever did for theirs and Ortega’s relationship.
Falling in love with Herald is, ironically, second place.
---------------------------------------------------------------
I'm the author of several orphaned works in the Fallen Hero fandom including the vindictively deleted 'Let Me Run This Bi You'. Yeah, I don't have a copy. Sorry to the two people who crawled for it on the Wayback machine. If anyone has a copy (doubtful at this point, but I can hope someone forgot to clear their cache) I'm willing to repost it and orphan instead of delete so people can read it again, if they want. Sorry to everyone who kudo'd and commented on it, but mostly to those two desperate people on the Wayback machine. Me, too, you guys.

Summary
Jean knew, distantly, that California was prone to earthquakes. But knowing and experiencing are two different things, and while he’s become accustomed to the sensation of the rug being pulled out from under him, he is very much unaccustomed to the literal Earth shaking beneath his feet.
Or, Jean gets a lot of magnets; California gets a lot of earthquakes.

Summary
When they laid Riko’s body to rest, the only thing Jean could think about was Kevin Day. Kevin Day, Castle Evermore, and the fragile blades of grass near his feet. He thought he must’ve been imagining their brightness, the absolute intensity of the iridescent neon bright fucking green of them.
Riko was dead.

Summary
And then something strikes you in the gut, hard enough that you can’t breathe and your head spins with stars. You throw yourself backward and draw up your fists. You may be drunk, but if he wants a fight, you will fight until he kills you. But he hasn’t moved. His hands remain unmoved at his side.
The feeling comes again. But you’re prepared this time. It’s fear. Your own, and it’s so strong that your heart feels like it will tear open. You don’t realize why your hands are shaking, why the panic attack comes so strongly, so brutally, until you notice that his thoughts have stopped rambling.
He is staring at you like he’s seen a ghost.
He recognizes you.
“Sidestep?”

or
Ortega and Sidestep get reunited mere days after Sidestep's second escape.

Summary
Essek tore his gaze away from those red eyes, seeking desperately something safer, softer. He was among friends. Cognouza was seconds ago and a timeline away. It hadn't happened — it wouldn't happen.
He settled on Jester, who beamed.
"Hi," she said, kindly, "I'm Jester. I like your weasel."
**
In another timeline, the Mighty Nein fall to Lucien. Essek, with Artagan-the-weasel's help, travels back in time to save them.

“You and me, a million bowls of ramen.” Naruto smiles, eyes closing in happiness at the thought (like spending time with Gaara is something to be happy about, which is certainly new for Gaara himself to witness), reaching for Gaara’s hand, “Like another real date! Finally!”
Maybe, just maybe, Gaara doesn't want to be a monster anymore.

Summary
Zagreus stops in front of him, head tilted up to look at him. There’s a cut on his face, and without thinking Thanatos reaches out, runs his thumb over it to soothe it shut so at the least he does not bleed.
Zagreus is still looking at him, quiet.
“Zagreus?”
“You came,” Zagreus finally says. He smiles; it makes all the flames that curl around his laurels spark. There is such a soft and tender pleasure in his words. “After all this time.”

Summary
It wasn’t consecution.
How could it be? Essek wasn’t consecuted. Even if he had been, consecution didn’t work like this. He’d know if it did; he’d spent years searching for any scrap of information about what was happening to him.
He found nothing.
-*-
Every time Essek dies, he wakes up on the day he meets the Mighty Nein. He's tried everything to avoid, subvert or kill them, but so far nothing has worked. He's already died fifteen times. He refuses to die a sixteenth.

Summary
“You sound like a mortal.” She said, with the faint glimmer of amusement in her eyes. Zagreus chortled too, but then fell silent. Nyx gave him a knowing look. “What is it, my child?”
“You said the curse is tied into my godhood, right? What if…” The words tasted unnatural in his mouth, a blasphemy before they could even take shape in the air. Zagreus coughed them out regardless. “What if I could shed my divinity? What if I became a mortal?”

Or, despite being a god, Zagreus keeps running out of time. A "Zagreus Becomes Mortal" AU. -

Summary
He saw the duffel.
It was battered all to hell and the strap was nearly torn from the bag, but it still glowed almost neon in the darkening night and streetlamp glare. Neil would never…
He dropped to his knees beside it and rifled through it, looking for any sign, any clue as to where Neil might have run. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Until his fingers found the keyring. Until he found the phone.Andrew's perspective on the Binghamton riot and the walking tragedy that is Neil Josten.

“I didn’t want to become a hero.”
Hawks doesn’t know what unholy force possessed him to rip that truth out from the deepest hollows of his soul, and by the look of surprise lighting Dabi’s face, he sure as hell wasn’t expecting it either.
