Summary
“Yeah, I did. I heard a fifty-eight-year-old man who still wants his daddy to come fix everything. Well, you can count me out,” and Luther turns towards the stairs to leave. His family breaks into another bout of arguments.
Five stares at his back, his mind stumbling over his brother’s words, uncomprehending. He’s held his heart out in his hands for them to see, and all they’ve done is step on it, dismissing him, like his efforts are for nothing.
He can’t help the laughter that spills out of his mouth.
It has been for nothing. Stop the apocalypse, save the world, keep his family alive—those are his goals, but what has he accomplished? Nothing! He’s stood in the wreckage of his hubris at thirteen, burying the only people in the world who mattered, and he’s about to do it again, in the same body as the first time no less.
Isn’t that ironic? Isn’t that hilarious?
Five laughs harder. He laughs so hard it hurts.
In which Five has a well-deserved breakdown, then gets a hug.

Summary
What if Five didn't, or was unable to, jump when thrown off the stairs by Luther in episode 5 (Valhalla) of season 2?
After two weeks of not sleeping, Five is tired. Tired of trying to protect his siblings when none of them make it easy, tired of trying to stop yet another apocalypse. So when he's falling after being thrown by Luther, he is unable - and maybe even slightly unwilling - to use his powers to save himself. -

Summary
Klaus made an offended noise. “All of you knew? Why am I always the last one to find out about the end of the world?”
“Maybe because you pay attention to jackshit but yourself,” Diego muttered.
Klaus pressed a hand to his chest, his tone growing snarky. “I don’t pay attention? I don’t pay attention? I’m sorry, no. Who else here has noticed that thing that Five’s been doing since we all arrived?”

Summary
“What the hell was that?” Five tried to demand, but his breathlessness ruined the effect.
The Handler grinned. “What? This little thing?” she asked, pulling a long, thin device from within the folds of her coat. “This is just a little something I had cooked up back at Headquarters just for you.”
She twisted the end of the device.
In response, the fabric of space released an unearthly howl of agony, making Five’s legs collapse beneath him.
Then it stopped, and a shadow fell over him.
“Now about that assignment,” The Handler said, gazing down at him with a predatory grin.

Summary
It’s a familiar feeling, being lifted up by Luther and tossed around like he weighs nothing (to Luther he certainly does), it was a favorite move of Luther’s as a child. Nostalgia is not what Five feels, he’s too busy flailing as Luther throws him over the railing.
or, Five fails a jump
