Summary
Nearly a year has passed since she turned her back on Crèche D’riluth, her name dragged through both blood and ruin. Exile was supposed to be freedom from blood-wrought zealotry. Instead, Cy’ra find herself wandering the streets of Baldur’s Gate, loneliness stalking her like a cruel shadow, haunted by the silver glow of a goddess she was never meant to reach for. Noise is all she seeks—something to drown the hollow aching in her chest where greatness once lived.
She finds Shadowheart instead: striking emerald eyes, a hand seared with Shar’s cruelty, and a hatred with an edge sharp enough to execute. She hadn’t expected her salvation to come dressed as violence, nor hatred to feel so close to home.
Brutality binds them first, and mercy keeps them near. Make them hunted. And as bounties rise and the gods snap their jaws, exile and acolyte alike will learn what it means to be pursued together—what it costs to bare their scars beneath Selûne’s unwavering gaze. They’ll be forced to choose: devotion, betrayal, or something far more dangerous, each other.
They’ll both be nobody’s soldier.

Summary
This is my take on W.I.T.C.H. It’s a more mature and realistic retelling of it. There are loads of original concepts in here and has completely reworked worldbuilding, lore, and story. It also uses concepts from both the comics and series, although tends to lean more towards the series.
You don’t need to watch/read W.I.T.C.H. in order to read this, it is its own canon separate from both the comics and series. Although you might need to look up pictures of certain things, as I only give visual descriptions of original ideas or things that have been altered from their appearance in the official canon (or if I feel like it).
I always thought the name “W.I.T.C.H” was very confusing so to speak. It makes trying to find anything relating to it difficult, and I think this lack of a distinctive name is part of why it’s not very popular. So I’ve come up with a better name for my version:

Summary
Running from a past that haunts you and a future that is unsure, the last thing you wanted was to take up with a stranger. Strangers, you'd learned, are almost always more trouble than they're worth. But when dangers from the life you're trying to leave behind get too close for comfort, drastic times call for drastic measures, and the stranger you'd once feared becomes the only person you can trust -- and perhaps the only person you'd call your friend.
Now you both just have make it out alive...
Or: the western AU that nobody asked for

The Gritty Wisdom of Jason Todd (Also known as: Jason Todd's Post-Wisdom Teeth Anesthetic Revelations) by Mia_Da_Cat
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)
10 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Fresh from wisdom teeth extraction, a heavily medicated Jason Todd has achieved peak existential clarity: He is the true Batman. Bruce? Just his well-meaning 'PR rep' for the superficial stuff. The Batfamily is trying (and failing) to keep a straight face, recording every side-splitting philosophical deep dive into what really makes a grim vigilante. Poor Duke is going to be so disappointed he missed this.

Summary
Following the retrieval of Susan Storm from Atlantis, Spider-Man must face another disaster befalling him once more
Magneto, or Erik Lehnsherr, played his ultimate checkmate in a plan to elevate Mutants in the public eyes
A forgotten force veiled behind a shadow of time resurfaces in an attempt to break free
🐴
CONTEXT for this universe>>>
1. Wanda Vision never happened.
2. Dr. Strange: Multiverse of Madness never happened.
3. The stories derived directly from the moment Strange cast the Oblivion Curse and branched into this continuity, and anything MCU released after NWH was considered non-related to this series.
4. I love the movie LOGAN, but sadly won't be using the iteration of the characters from that movie.
5. Mystique is more like the comics, in which she can only shift her skin and body, not the clothes.Series

Summary
Ryuko Matoi, a rebellious drifter searching for her father’s killer, arrives in Honno City—only to clash violently with Satsuki Kiryuin, the ruthless student council president of Honnouji Academy. Their battle rages until an unexpected figure strolls between them: (First Name), a carefree young man who casually greets Ryuko, ignoring Satsuki's lethal presence.
Enraged by his audacity, Satsuki swings her blade at his throat—but he dodges with eerie precision, the steel barely grazing his skin.
"I've faced death twice already," He muses, unfazed. "Third time is not the charm."
Now, caught between a vengeful drifter and a tyrant, (First Name) becomes the wild card in a war where survival means defying fate itself.

Summary
Wolffe would later recall this was the moment that he lost it.
Curling his fingers under folded cloth, Wolffe tore the layers of bandages from around his head. He peeled the strips back to reveal maimed flesh, raw and hideous where the sabers had blazed a scorching path from his cheekbone all the way up to his hairline.
“Don’t you get it?” Wolffe demanded, nearly shouting. “What do you think they’ll do to me when they see this?”

1939 - Year Of The Bat-Man by gothambatman1939
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Batman (Comics)
13 Jan 2023
Tags
Summary
Complete. Resetting Batman's origin story back to 1939, this is a very literary first-person perspective novel that is heavily inspired by the comics, and places emphasis upon the science and technology of the Batman mythos. It is firmly cemented in the real world history using historical figures to do so, and utilizes detailed forensic knowledge of the time period to create a believable detective mystery.
1939 - Year of the Bat-Man is told from the perspectives of Bruce Wayne, James Gordon, and Selena Kyle. The tale imagines young Bruce being kidnapped by Gotham's "Streetnapper" on the night that his parents were murdered. It is here where his psyche shatters and the bat persona slowly begins to take on a life of its own. Little does he know, this event will eventually prove to become his greatest clue in solving the identity of the illusive criminal, allowing the Bat-Man to take his vengeance and cement his legacy in Gotham forever.

The Errant Souls Archive by paraparadigm, polymorphic
Fandom: Elder Scrolls, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
30 Nov 2023
Summary
The land of Skyrim founders in the wake of a shattered empire, and there are those who would split it more—patriots, profiteers, and warmongers fresh out of jobs. With competing ambitions growing more costly to bear, some say the land is ripe for a hero. But who should it be? Not this particular Dragonborn.
An exploration of power vacuums and some of the more underbaked elements of TES lore.
