Summary
Will has spent years pretending that the shadows don't stir whenever Henry slips back into his life. For years, he has resolved to deny the growing urges he has developed for Henry, but he's tired. Tired of fighting, tired of yearning, tired of resisting--tired of all of it. When Henry appears again, Will finds himself standing on a precipice of a choice he has spent years running from. Either he will surrender or Henry will--or maybe they can both get what they want.

Summary
“Dustin?” he manages, when he finally catches his breath. It’s all he can think to say. Not what are you doing here? Not how did you know where to find me? Not why did you just crash your own car into a lamppost?
It’s not like Dustin was ever the answerable kind of question.
Dustin spits some blood to his left and breaks out into an uneasy smile. He limps forward, leaning on Will’s shoulder. His breath comes out in hasty wheezes. “Been driving three days straight,” he says, like that explains it. “Can I sleep in your bed?”
Then he faints into Will’s arms.
It’s the fall of 1994. Will starts a new life in San Francisco under a pseudonym, seeking refuge from his past. Dustin works for the feds, clearing up the last ghostly traces of the Upside Down.
Until the details of a strange new case force him to bring Will in under investigation.

Summary
When Henry opens his eyes, his first thought is, this is impossible.
A hazy, grey expanse of clouds awaits his blinking eyes, a far cry from the frigid, arid desert of the abyss he called home. His vision swims, black dots speckling like pepper. Impossible, he echoes as his fingers curl in the dry grass around him (grass - not sand, not vines, grass) -
The air is clear, the wind a gentle lullaby as it whispers through the strands.
None of this is possible.
And yet, here he lies.
----
Revived and cast back to Hawkins, Henry searches for familiarity.

One of my favourite fics because it got me thinking about it long after I've finished it. Got me craving badly for more S3 rewrite too. Love how much more involved Will was in this one, his interactions with the Scoops Troop and Max were awesome, and he has power too *squeals*

Summary
When the Potters moved next door, Cedric hadn’t realised his life was about to change forever.
He didn't think he was going to be friends with a boy who had the wildest hair he'd ever seen. Harry’s fierce green eyes reminded him of a Manticore from the Magical Creatures book he once read. The intensity in his stares scared Cedric at first, but after the whole spring passed, they became inseparable. This must be what it felt like to have a little brother who was eternally curious and incredibly stubborn.
(AU where there's no Voldemort, no Wormtail, no one calls Harry The Boy Who Lives. Harry's been raised by James and Lily.)

Summary
Magic. The ancient, complicated, and incomprehensible thing.
Even after living in the wizarding world for two decades, Harry still hadn’t fully wrapped his head around it. He didn’t understand how it worked, nor why, after all these years, a ghostly, pale figure of seventeen-year-old Cedric Diggory, who had died in that graveyard long ago, suddenly appeared before him.
And if magic wasn’t going to give him answers, it only made things worse since Harry soon realised he was the only one who could see the ghost of Cedric Diggory.

Summary
"“I was hoping I wouldn’t see you back so soon,” Strange said just as Loki had crossed the threshold. He was standing in the middle of the entrance and Loki could feel power in him, but it was different from that which he was used to. More… raw, perhaps.
“I do live to disappoint,” Loki said with a smile."
Or: After deciding to stay on Earth, Loki is forced to come to terms with his actions while trying to deal with the people in his life, old and new.

Very good IronStrange one shots series. Started from The Avengers movie up till Endgame and beyond. The slow burn and development of their relationship, and their delightful interactions with each other are well-written. Highly recommended and a must-read IronStrange fics series for beginners.

Summary
[Written for Marvellous Aces Holiday Bingo 2020 | prompt: There Was Only One Bed... And All They Did Was Sleep]
“Boss, as well as Mr Banner, Laufeyson, and Strange, are currently sleeping together in Boss’s bedroom,” FRIDAY informs Steve nonchalantly.
“Sleeping together… in Tony’s bed?" Steve repeats hesitantly, unsure if he heard it correctly. "All... four of them?”
“Yes and yes, Mr Rogers.”
“Does... Pepper... know this, FRIDAY?”
“Yes, Ms Potts-Stark is well aware that the four of them were experimenting until well into the night."
“...Experimenting?”
“Yes, Mr Rogers,” the AI confirms calmly. “Extensively experimenting with magic, the Iron Man armour, several varieties of knives, and one Hulk.”
It is at this point that Steve Rogers decides that he does not want to know any further.
Or: how an asexual god of chaos, a bisexual genius billionaire, a pansexual Sorcerer Supreme, and a graysexual scientist who occasionally turns into a green rage monster, may have accidentally scarred Steve Rogers forever via science shenanigans, flirting, terrible double entendres, and cuddles, courtesy of a superintelligent AI who is a little shit.

Summary
When Thor returns from Asgard to rejoin the Avengers, he brings Loki in tow--stripped of his magic and bound with a geas that allows him to speak only in response to direct questions.
AKA, yet another "Loki lives with the Avengers; chaos ensues" story.
