Summary
Everything is 'okay', and yet, I'm still stuck in this loop, this desperate attempt from my mind to force myself into a panic because it doesn't— can't— trust that everything is okay anymore.
I'm still hyperventilating and my hand is still clutching my heart and I still see your lifeless body, Katsuki. Even though it's not there and you're here and okay. Suddenly, theres this urge deep within me to see you. To make sure you actually are. It's irrational, I've been by your side at the hospital and during your physical therapy, I hugged you when you woke up and held your hand when you were writhing in agony.
OR
Denki wakes up after a nightmare and goes to the person his subconscious tells him to.

Summary
The hand in Thanos’ hair stings. His cheeks burn, his jaw is sore, his wrist is tired, and his knees, so willfully bent at the start, wear terribly into the harsh, cold floor beneath him.
All at once, he’s smaller and stupider and more pathetic than he’s ever been. A big dumb sign taped to his forehead: cocksucker, and a shitty one at that. Jesus Christ. What a fucking loser.
Or: the two times Thanos totally sucks at sucking dick, and the one time he sort of doesn’t.

Summary
There’s this moment just before. When your chair tips, or you miss the last step of the stairs. Your stomach twisting, pupils dilating, hands coming out to catch yourself. A moment in which time seems to slow down, when you look down at the ground and you realize you’re helpless to stop it. No matter what you do, no matter how hard you’ll fight it, gravity will win. And you want to fight it, oh, yes, you do, but even the most stubborn people in the world have to admit at some point that they’ve lost this time. There’s nothing to do but accept it. To stop the fight and brace yourself instead.
Slowly, and then all at once, time rushes back.
And you fall.
Alternatively titled: Regulus Black and the mortifying ordeal of falling in love.

Wings of Gold from Tales of Old by whatafunnythinglifeis
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
23 Apr 2022
Tags
Summary
[Written before the release of the 2.7 update.]
The goddess of dust heard a story of a golden-winged adeptus child one day during the Archon war, and sets off to see if there is any truth to it.
A few decades later, the god of contracts sets eyes on a bloodhound scrabbling at the earth and, while looking at the spindly bones protruding from his back, thinks that the bloodhound seems fit for the sky, not the ground.
After the thrones of Celestia have found their owners, a group of divine beings find themselves branded as "The Yakshas" and find themselves faltering when it comes to the bird of their group, who appears to meet all attempts at friendship with the edge of a jade spear.
When the archon of snow and ice sends her youngest to the land of contracts, a creature touched by the abyss finds that the curiously wise man he fell for has an interesting history with a loner who lives on an inn's rooftop.
The author takes many liberties, as canon was looked at, loved, and thrown out the window during many points in time.

Summary
Asking to see him on Christmas, the most romantic day of the year, should be forward enough. Then again, his invitation to spend time alone in Satomi’s apartment should have been forward enough, too.
Satomi ended up texting Kyouji. His quick response agreeing to meet up sealed Satomi’s fate.
He set his phone down with a shaky sigh and wondered how much more of this he could take.

Rudo’s Inner Tirade: To Deprive the Soul Love by Anonymous

Summary
Rudo forced himself to sink his teeth in his flesh over and over again until skin broke and blood pooled, trickling down his forearms just so he could rip his skin back to reach atrophied muscles and brittle bones because his parents did not provide him with anything.
Not even the proper tools—a knife, scissors, anything really, would have helped—to mutilate himself and this vicious, life-sucking, love hungry plague that they cursed him with.
He would not stop, not for himself, not even for Regto.
“Please, Rudo—why are you doing this? You need to stop—”
Rudo had to do it.
Regto’s begging would not dissuade him.
He had to.
It was the only way he knew that would lull the pain to sleep.

Strays Shelter Strays by SLEEPYreader123
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Marvel Cinematic Universe
26 Jul 2025

Summary
Peter Parker didn't mean to wake up in Gotham, with no one, no way back, and powers that barely function. He's hurt, he's hungry, and he's all alone. But most of all, he's desperate to survive on his own. The last thing he expects is to catch the eye of a notorious thief, or a boy his age with a sharp tongue as sharp as his knives, and lonely eyes.
Damian Wayne doesn't need saving. Not from rogues. Not from bullies. And certainly not from jumpy street kids with shady pasts and no respect for privacy or personal space. He doesn't need help, he doesn't need family, and he doesn't need friends. He's a highly trained assassin. He's Batman's fearsome partner. He doesn't need anyone. At least, that's what he tells himself.
---
In a city of strife and survival, Peter and Damian find in each other what they learned to never expect, let alone hope for: understanding, loyalty, and a place to belong. And for the first time, Gotham starts to feel like home. But secrets don’t stay secret in Gotham, and when masked identities collide, and a shadowy enemy looms closer, the bond they've formed threatens to shatter.
Because the only thing more dangerous than a city full of crime, is letting someone in.

Peter sits slouched on a courtyard bench like he’s trying to melt into it, chin propped in one hand, a crumpled hall pass hanging from the pocket of his hoodie like a badge of dishonor.
Damian spots him instantly.
He doesn’t seem bothered by the fact he got detention on his first day. Or the fact it’s the only thing anyone at Gothap Prepatory is talking about.
Because apparently, standing up to a teacher on your first day is enough to land you in trouble. And apparently, it’s more disruptive to call out negligence than it is to let bullies run unchecked.
Tt. Typical.
From a distance, Damian watches the boy flick a small pebble toward a nearby pigeon rooting through a candy wrapper. It lands wide, deliberately, Damian notes. A warning shot, not an attack.
Strange– most people wouldn’t think twice before chasing a bird off for fun. But then again, Damian thinks, Peter doesn’t move like most people. Everything he does seems deliberately casual, like he’s constantly pretending not to care.
Damian’s eyes narrow.
He shouldn’t care. He doesn’t. But something about that infuriating slouch, about the fact that someone actually stood up for him in class today and then immediately acted like it didn’t matter, grates against him.
So he walks over.
Fast. Purposeful. Tight with annoyance he hasn’t bothered to untangle yet.
Peter doesn’t even look up.
“I didn’t need saving.”
Peter doesn’t flinch. He doesn’t roll his eyes, or challenge him, or smirk like he’s about to get the last word in.
He just looks up from where he’s seated on the bench, the late afternoon sun haloing him in warm light, and shrugs like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.
“Yeah. I know.”
Damian freezes.
Peter says it so casually, like it’s a fact, not up for debate. No sarcasm. No pity. Just quiet honesty.
“I saw the way you kept your cool,” Peter adds, slouching back against the bench. “You could’ve dropped that kid without blinking. Honestly? That’s probably why he was pushing you. Guys like that don’t know what to do when they can’t scare someone.”
Damian doesn’t respond right away. His mouth opens, then closes. He was expecting a lecture. Or a boast. Or some smug defense of his actions. Not… this.
“But you didn’t hit him,” Peter continues, tapping his fingers against his knee. “Even though he deserved it. Even though the teacher didn’t care. You kept your cool anyways. It was actually pretty cool.”
The words sit heavy between them.
Damian crosses his arms, unsure what to do with the sudden warmth blooming in his chest; cautious, quiet, and unfamiliar.
“…Why step in, then,” he asks, voice lower. “If you knew I had it handled?”
Peter considers that. “Because no one else was going to. And just because you can handle something, doesn’t mean you should have to.”
That lands harder than Damian expects. He doesn't say anything. He doesn’t have the words.
Peter’s gaze drifts off as he digs into his bag and pulls out a crumpled notebook. “Anyway. Project stuff. I had an idea.”
Damian's grateful for the switch of topics. “Go on.”
Peter flips to a scrawled page. “We do a piece on Gotham’s forgotten zones. The stuff between the cracks: runoff shelters, underground tunnels, lost transit stations. Real Gotham. The parts no one wants to look at.”
Damian frowns, intrigued despite himself. “You’ve been to those places?”
Peter glances up with a lopsided smile that doesn’t reach his eyes. “You could say that.”
He hands over the notebook. “You can veto if it’s too grim. But I figured if we’re stuck working together, might as well do something that matters.”
Damian doesn’t respond right away, still off balance. Still quietly turning Peter’s words over in his head.
He hadn’t needed saving. But Peter had helped anyway. And not out of pity. Not out of showmanship. Just… because.
For a moment, Damian doesn’t feel judged or tested. He just feels seen.
And he hates how much that matters.

"Let me help.” A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over “I love you."

Summary
When good luck hit Eddie, first by Billy Hargrove waking him up in the Upside Down, then by figuring out a plan to actually get back, executing that plan to success and crawling out of Lover's Lake only to find Steve Harrington eating a bag of chips whilst he sat on the front of his car. He didn't know quite what to do with it. He simply sat at the water's edge as the sun went down, breathed in a way he'd almost forgotten how to and watched Billy Hargrove shake Steve mercilessly by the shoulders before Steve dropped his chips and slapped him across the face in shock.
---
In September 1986, Eddie Munson and Billy Hargrove find themselves on the shore of Lover's Lake, only to be found by Steve Harrington.

Summary
Character study: in which Jiang Cheng’s greatest tragedy is, perhaps, the fact that Wei Wuxian always loved him like a brother.
Jiang Cheng had never wanted Wei Wuxian to be his brother.
“Your father thinks that he can just bring his by-blows here, into my house, and expect me to look the other way,” muttered Yu Ziyuan, glaring out across the water to where Wei Ying was laughing in a boat with Jiang Yanli. “He thinks that I have such a thick face that I will just brazen it out, no matter what people say behind my back.”
“Mother,” protested Jiang Cheng, unhappily. “Mother, he isn’t. You know he isn’t. They were just friends, Father and that lady. He said so, on his honour.”

Summary
Caitlyn scoffs as Vi tightens the cuffs around her wrists, keeping them held firmly behind her back. “What could I have possibly done to deserve this?”
“Teasing me all day. Trying to get to me with that dirty mouth.” Vi flicks Caitlyn lightly on the nose before she takes a step back and admires Caitlyn’s bound form. “Being a brat.”
“Well, if you’re going to punish me, I’d say get on with it, then,” Caitlyn says with that edge of irreverence, smirking like the brat she is.

The panic rose him. All worries seeming justified in this fretful moment; I am not enough. He has tired of me. He has found a new boy, younger, prettier, better. He will throw me out onto the streets.
"No, you silly child. I mean it is time, Amadeo," Marius remarked, as if it were no significant thing. "Come, give me your neck."

Amadeo's turning, as with much of his life so far, is a sad affair.
