might never be normal again (but who cares) by napricot
Fandoms: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain America (Movies)
28 Apr 2019

Summary
The beginnings of a plan took shape in Steve’s mind, as clear and simple as a tactical frontal assault. He’d prove to Bucky that this was it, he was staying: Steve was retired from the fighting game, Steve wasn’t going to let anything keep pulling them apart. Maybe then when Steve finally told him he loved him, Bucky would believe him.
All things considered, Steve thought he’d handled the whole Thanos killing half the universe thing and the ensuing bitter, desperate quest to defeat him pretty well. Sacrificing his super soldier serum to use one of the Infinity Stones wasn't a problem either, not when it meant getting back the half of the universe they'd lost, and especially not when it meant getting Bucky back. But retirement and finally confessing his feelings for Bucky? Those were proving to be more challenging.

Summary
“Oh, we’re on this again, are we? In the middle of my plight?”
“Just telling the truth,” Phil shrugged. “I can hear you stressing in your mind, you know?”
Dan shook his head, his eyes gleaming.
“Right,” he said. “Except our fucking neighbours can probably hear it too, with how loud I’m projecting my misery.”
Phil can read thoughts. Dan doesn't believe him.

Summary
“Which one is yours?”
Shane scans the ice for his daughter’s jersey number. Ilya had been really smug about it when they brought it home. She has your last name, Hollander, he’d said, let her have my number if she wants. Is better, anyway.
“That one,” he says, pointing at the clump of white jerseys. “Number 81. Mila.”
“Oh you’re Mila’s dad!” The woman looks delighted. “I’m Maddie’s mom. Jane.”
She holds her hand out, and Shane has to bite back a grin. He takes her hand.
“Shane,” he says, shaking it. “Nice to meet you.”

The Very Last Place One Expects to Run into One’s History Professor by RileyWilliamsJr
Fandoms: Merlin (TV), Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
26 Oct 2020

Summary
Group projects are the worst: everyone knows that. Harry had been focusing on keeping his friendship with Ron and Hermione intact during their History of Magic project, but in actual fact, that didn’t turn out to be the problem. No—because something always has to go wrong in Harry’s life, they have instead encountered a mishap with the Time-Turner Hermione was apparently using to take even more classes than usual, so instead of squabbling in a nice little Welsh bookshop, they are now squabbling in a remote forest, surrounded by medieval knights who keep brandishing swords and shouting in a foreign language. But that somehow isn’t the weirdest part: because standing amongst the knights, unarmed and wearing ragged clothing, is (for some godforsaken reason) Hogwarts’ new history teacher.

Summary
Nile watches as Joe gets to his feet and heads towards Nicky, calling out something to him in Italian. Nile is torn between learning Italian, so that she can know what they’re saying, and feeling like it’s an intrusion on something that she’s not meant to hear. "He's very protective of Nicky, isn't he?"
"You're only noticing that now?" Andy asks wryly.
“It all seems a little bit one-sided, that’s all,” Nile muses. “I've never seen Nicky be as...violently protective over Joe.” Andy just hums, and Nile glances over at her. “You think I’m wrong? I know I haven’t been around long, but I’ve seen Joe get killed in a bunch of messy ways and Nicky has never done…that.”
Andy just hums again. “Look again,” she says when Nile throws her hands up in frustration. “Watch more closely. You’ll know when you see it.”

Summary
Merlin has returned to Hogwarts for his second year as the History of Magic professor, and this time he is determined to find a way to destroy the horcrux within Harry before it's too late. It's not exactly a simple task, however, especially with an escaped convict on the loose and dementors lurking around Hogwarts' grounds. So when Merlin finally gets a chance to change Harry's fate, he takes it.
A bit of time travel is surely worth the risk if it will save Harry's life—isn't it?

Summary
Merlin generally does his best to stay out of magical affairs, or at least, he likes to think he does. But after one chance encounter in Diagon Alley, a seemly incompetent new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, and a fight in a bookstore, Merlin finds himself starting a new position as the History of Magic professor at Hogwarts. Unfortunately, he also finds himself under heavy suspicion from both Harry and his friends and members of Hogwarts's staff when the Chamber of Secrets is mysteriously opened once again.

Summary
King Arthur sets out to keep his promise to the spirit of the Druid boy by repealing his father's ban on magic. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done, for reasons including but not limited to the following:
(1) He can't change the law until he understands magic better, but no sorcerer is willing to explain magic to him until he changes the law;
(2) The sorcerers all have some strange obsession with Merlin, which is awakening all sorts of feelings in Arthur that he really doesn't fancy examining too closely;
(3) He is starting to feel like the butt of some Druid-population-wide inside joke involving the mysterious phenomenon called Emrys; and
(4) Oh yeah, Morgana is still trying to kill him.
Thus he embarks on a journey of discovery, diplomacy, accountability, and self-improvement, and maybe even falls in love along the way.

Summary
“I don’t want him as my soulmate,” Arthur complains. “He was rude, and he’s magic, and he’s old and quite frankly, I think he’s insane and—”
“And he’s not Merlin?” Morgana asks, crossing her arms.
“Shut up, Morgana,” Arthur says heatedly, feeling the flush settle awkwardly in his cheeks. “Merlin isn’t my soulmate, so there’s clearly something severely wrong with him, and I just haven’t figured out what it is yet.”
Or: It turns out that Arthur's soulmate Emrys is a dodgery old sorcerer. No one is happy about this, least of all Arthur, who has to come to terms with the facts that he's bound to someone with magic and that his inconvenient attraction to Merlin won't lead to anything at all.
So he thinks, anyway.

Here's the deal: Buffy's got no idea how to beat Glory, or how they're gonna book it across the country in a moldy RV without anyone killing each other, especially now that someone broke one of the beds—and the thought of going home again kinda makes her wanna cry.
The one thing she knows is that Spike would follow her anywhere, even like this.
