    Summary

    At 21, Jamie writes his first book, a romance novel about an up and coming footballer who embodies everything Jamie isn’t: kind, caring, soft. Published under a pseudonym, it unexpectedly takes off, followed by a sequel in the same vein.

    But his third book is different. This time, Jamie pours onto the page what he can’t say aloud: his father’s abuse, his sexuality, the suffocating weight of expectation. Only when he begins to find his place back at Richmond does he start to feel hope again, both for his book and his future.

    Meanwhile, Roy, thanks to his yoga mums, becomes hooked on a series of novels by an anonymous author. He never expects one of them to put words to feelings he’s buried for years.

    Or: An AU where Jamie Tartt is a successful author alongside his football career.

    Summary

    Okay, sure—Kon messed up. He accidentally de-aged Superman with the kryptonite tech Supes explicitly told him not to touch. But hey, at least he’s trying to fix it! Yeah, it means roping in his other “evil dad,” but should Kon really be the one to blame?

    Like, seriously—why the hell does a de-aged, amnesiac, geeky farmboy Clark know exactly where Lex’s secret Scottish castle lair is? A place so off-the-radar even the JLA couldn’t find it? And what the heck is a Scottish Castle doing in Smallville, of all places? And why does Clark have his own retinal and bio-scan clearance to this secret lair that not even Kon knew about?

    And why is Mr. Sweet-Naive-Boy-Scout flirting with the devil himself? And why isn’t Lex just trying to kill him on sight?

    Finding out both your dads used to date—and, argh, have sex—is pretty messed up. But the real kicker? The hypocrisy.

    Mr. Goody-Two-Shoes has been lecturing me for months about being too young to date the dangerously sexy bad boy Richie Wayne who’ll “steal my virtue,” all while he’s been secretly banging his arch-nemesis Lex Luthor this whole time.

    Yeah. Family drama, much?

    Summary

    Eddie and Buck lie about their relationship and the reveal is a big part of the plot, however, before the reveal happens there were so many moments where everyone could have found out. So, these are AUAUs on the main verse where people find out. (I've been calling them AUAUs, because it sounds like a siren when you say it out loud).

    Summary

    Diverges from chapter 13, where Bobby goes to the fire academy to look for a recruit to become a partner for Buck once he finishes his probationary year. There he runs into Eddie, who is still under the assumption that Buck mentioned being married to him and raising Chris together to his colleagues. The resulting tensions lead to a confession and a very awkward moment at work.

    Summary

    It really, truly, genuinely has been a long-ass day. Tony’s good at board meetings and show ponying like his life depends on it, but—as everyone but especially Pepper knows—he would literally rather be doing anything else with his time.

    Unfortunately, some things are serious and pressing enough to need his attention, namely because they have to do with the company’s image. Seeing as Tony is the company’s image, involvement simply makes sense.

    Eight hours of meetings, hour one being the resolution that they absolutely need a good lawyer to take point on their ADA compliance and unfortunate lack thereof in many spaces, and yet no lawyers had shown up, nor had anyone even given Tony a name so he could run one of his own private background checks.

    He had called for everyone to break for ten, that way he can drink coffee and contemplate his life choices before he’s dragged back into the thick of everything else, too.

    The Avengers meet Matthew Murdock. And have some light gossip on Daredevil, too.

    Summary

    The lobby of Avengers Tower hadn’t changed much—sleek glass, muted colors, the quiet hum of cutting-edge tech—but Steve Rogers felt completely out of place.
    He clenched and unclenched his fists, heart thudding beneath his ribs.
    He’d spent what felt like a lifetime trying to get back. Returning the stones was supposed to be a quick round trip—back in a blink. Instead, he was stranded in the past, with no way home. Everyone must’ve thought he chose it: a peaceful life, Peggy, a white-picket fence.
    But they were wrong.
    He only wanted Bucky.
    It had taken years of working with the fledgling SHIELD and piecing together experimental tech until a window finally opened, and he was able to make it back—back to Bucky.
    But by then, the world had moved on.

    Summary

    “You know, kids,” Steve heard from the backyard, “one of the most common threats a superhero has to face is inside an active volcano! We’re going to have to work on your evasion skills, so for the next five minutes, the floor is lava!” This was met by a sudden spike in both volume and pitch from the small children as they scrambled onto every raised surface they could find and immediately launched themselves right back off.

    “I’ve never seen actual lava in my entire life,” Steve said, vaguely offended.

    “You got a superhero impersonator for The Falcon’s niece’s birthday party,” Sam said, incredulous. “The Falcon, who is an actual superhero.”

    Summary

    Gale was a beta. He only needed Astarion’s pillows and blankets because his body ached from sleeping on the ground. Surely it wouldn’t kill the vampire to part with a few comforts?

    Alternatively: Gale has an uncharacteristic bout of thievery and Astarion, like a hypocrite, confronts him for it.

    Summary

    Formerly "Astarion's Alleged Devil Fetish"

    Raphael promised to translate Astarion's scars in exchange for his services. There seems to be a bit of a miscommunication as to what those services were meant to be.

    Or: Astarion lays it on thick, thinking he's been hired to entertain the cambion for the evening, and Raphael, oblivious and flattered, comes to the conclusion that the vampire spawn simply has a devil fetish, perhaps even a crush.

    Summary

    Harry Potter had a plan...it wasn't a very good plan, but at least it was simple.

    Step 1: Don't die from the insanely difficult ritual
    Step 2: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible before getting killed and/or arrested

    As it goes, it was really simple...until it became clear he wasn't traveling back in time alone. Now the whole plan has to change.

    Step 1: Don't die from the ritual
    Step 2: Kill off current Dark Lord
    Step 3: Establish following to become new Dark Lord
    Step 4: Overthrow Ministry
    Step 5: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible
    Step 6: Keep boyfriend alive and not mad at him

    It was a work in progress, but plans hadn't worked out well for Harry in the past regardless. Oh well, it's not like he could make things worse...

    Summary

    On October 31, 1981, a piece of the Dark Lord Voldemort's soul was ripped away from the whole and found a new home within his mortal enemy, the infant named Harry James Potter. What he never expected was that the child, raised so tenderly until then by his parents and their closest friends, would be brimming with the one thing he had always scorned - love. Unable to resist its siren call, that tiny sliver of soul found itself slowly healing, and nearly ten years later experienced a very strange rebirth.

    Now a child once more, Tom Riddle sets out to make a new life for himself - one that includes ensuring Harry is healthy, happy, and by his side. Unfortunately, his older self, the broken remains of Lord Voldemort, still lurks in the shadows.

    Edit 19/2/25: Some minor changes to formatting and title setup. No major plot changes or anything, just tweaks.
