    Summary

    Penelope Parker (AKA Queens' Friendly Neighborhood Arachnid!) is perfectly fine. She's been alone for just over three years, and she's fine, really! She has no friends or family to speak of, mind you, save for Deadpool, if he counts. Her apartment is shit, she's balancing waitressing with selling photos to the Bugle and saving lives nightly as Arachnid, she doesn't talk to any of the other Masks or Capes out there, but she's - really! At least, that's what she says. Then, it all comes crashing down around her ears (Alongside an apartment building...) After a serious injury in a fight with Rhino and Juggernaut, Arachnid discovers that a certain wannabe-Vampire doctor is getting out of DODC jail early, leaving her scrambling to find a solution. With less than two weeks to find a way to contain Doctor Morbius' bloodlust, Penny is forced to start relying on those around her. But can she open up to others after more than three years of hiding away?

    The clock is ticking, Fate is knocking, and Penny's past is catching up. Can our little spider climb fast enough to avoid the rising waters?

    (And what the *hell* is up with the rumors of famously dead Tony Stark sightings at various Mutant and Mask gathering places?!)

    Summary

    Penny Parker feels the Avengers and the Accords closing in on her even when she’s not wearing the Spider-Man suit, so she lawyers up in advance.

    It’s just her luck that the Avengers are convinced they can lure in the notoriously evasive Spider-Man by using his photographer girlfriend as bait.

    Nelson & Murdock (and, from afar, Deadpool) object to that.

    Summary

    Having a crush on Peter Parker is, objectively, a good experience.

    But dating Peter Parker? Entirely too good.

    (alternatively: peter runs out of good date ideas so mj makes him promise to never take her on a 'good' date ever again)

    Summary

    As far back as Harry could remember, a part of him had always frightened him. A part that was too cruelly free, too corrosive. He had learned to lock it away, to deny that side of who he was. To please a single person. The only one who still mattered. Peter. His walls had held, year after year… But it’s never healthy to deny an entire part of yourself. Sooner or later, even the strongest walls begin to crumble.
    Harry was never the heir Norman wanted. Too unstable, too sensitive, too... human. A dreamer like his mother, nothing like his scientist father. So Norman did what any good father would do: he tested the serum on his own son, to prove to the military that it was viable on human subjects. After all, his son had to be good for something, someday. But there are things science should never dare to create.

    Summary

    [

    “Send me away,” Peter informed Dr Strange, slipping on a mask of courage he knew all too well, shoulders back, head high, keep your breath even. He heard the voice of one of the soldiers who previously trained him in his head, cold, sharp.

    “Are you sure about this, Peter?” Dr Strange asked, concern evident on his face.

    “Yeah,” He looked Dr Strange dead in the eye, “I am.”

    ]

    After the events of NWH, Peter found himself in a new universe, stuck in a city filled with bats and birds, horrible naming skills, and lots of crime and stray animals. Fortunately, He was more than used to being dumped at random places with little to no knowledge of where he was. Unfortunately, this city kept reminding him of a past he’d rather forget. He got de-aged, and he had somehow managed to catch the attention of a few local vigilantes, but everything was fine.

    WDYM HE LOOKED LIKE ONE OF A CERTAIN HIMBO BILLIONAIRE'S CHILDREN?

    Summary

    Spider-man wasn't there when the Sokovia Accords were signed, when pen was put to paper by the hands of those who were supposed to be their saviours. He wasn't there when the implications of what they had just agreed to hit the Avengers like a freight train.
    _____

    OR

    AU where Spider-Man never did sign the accords but all the Avengers did. Welcome to my little fucked up corner of the time line where Peter never befriends Tony, goes to Germany or avoids the dynamic duo of Deadpool and Daredevil.

    Bring your popcorn, silence your phones, and prepare for the fic of my dreams!! I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I loved writing it <3

    Summary

    The world is run by a Hive Mind. No feelings, no names, no choices.
    Catra was born free, deep in the rebellion—surrounded by found family, missions, and people who actually feel things. She doesn’t trust anyone who came from the Hive.
    Then a tall, glitching, dumb blonde Enforcer stumbles in—asking questions like what soup is, why dreams are scary, and if holding hands helps with morale.
    Catra is annoyed. And flustered.
    And, somehow, the one stuck teaching her how to human.
    Bow and Glimmer are making a "Flustered Catra" meter.
    And the dumb blonde is starting to smile.

    AKA The Hive AU

    In short, Catra is a flustered lesbian. Adora is a dumb, oblivious lesbian. And, the entire rebellion ships them.

    Summary

    The truth is that crazy people come in all shapes and sizes, isn't that right? While one might hide behind a smile, others might allow anger to flourish through. The truth is that you never know what is truly festering inside someone until you take a closer look, and sometimes, you might regret even looking.

    If control is what truly matters in hell, then keeping the appearance of control is obviously the thing that showcases the strongest. On one hand, Vox gives the appearance of having everything under control, it is his specialty and no one can deny him this except for one person. The one person that no matter what, he cannot manage to control.

    Alastor just thinks Vox is pathetic.

    Or a dive into Alastor's character and Vox trying to figure out what makes him tick and how he can exploit it.

    Summary

    Written for the I'm Siriusly Reading Hozier Fest!
    Hozier Prompt:  “If I'm a pagan of the good times, my lover’s the sunlight”

    Non-wizard, magical AU featuring angels, demons, and fae creatures. The old, traditional families in London's high-society are members of a secret, exclusive cult. In order to retain their good standing with the cult, each family must offer one young adult from each generation to serve as priest/priestess, take vows of self-sacrifice, and provide a bodily host for The Spirit. As heir, Sirius is expected to take this role, but he has chosen his own way out, selling his soul to The Devil...aka James Potter.

    The role falls to Regulus, but James Potter is determined to have the full set of Black Brothers, especially when he discovers that Regulus Black isn't the meek, defenseless younger brother that Sirius portrayed him to be. As Heaven and Hell battle for Regulus's soul, his true nature is revealed by Hellhound!Remus and James can now unseal the Four Horseman of the Apocolypse. Bring on the Rapture!

    Translations on AO3 are okay, as long as I am linked as author. Do not repost to any other sites.

    Summary

    Lily leans close to Regulus and whispers. “I’ll tell you about my crush if you tell me about yours.”

    Oh that would not be good. No, that absolutely cannot happen. Regulus does what he does best and deflects. “Oh, I think I can guess yours,” he says in a tease. “He’s funny, can cook a great Vindaloo, and sleeps in the same bed as you.”

    Lily laughs, delighted. “Got it in one!” she says.

    OR

    Regulus needs a place to stay for his next semester at Hogwarts University, and a couple, James and Lily, have an extra room in their on-campus apartment. Regulus quickly finds himself falling for the couple, but there's no way they feel the same, right?

    Also, James wants him to meet his best friend Padfoot. What kind of name is Padfoot anyway? No, Regulus has not spoken to his brother since he ran away years ago, why do you ask?

    Summary

    Regulus is supposed to join Sirius' band when he starts Hogwarts. Regulus is also supposed to be a pureblood Slytherin. He's only able to fulfill one of those things.

    Sirius thinks he betrayed him, his mother thinks he's a gluttonous disappointment, and James Potter is in love with Lily Evans.

    The only time he feels like he can breathe is when he's with his friends. When they play his songs together and his lyrics come alive, he feels alive. So, they start a band. It's not like anyone will find out.

    Summary

    In the summer between his fifth and his sixth year, Regulus Black is given a simple order: hide a diary in a safe, secret spot at Hogwarts, and he’ll be rewarded with the dark mark. The alternative is death. Regulus is not one for dualism; when he can’t find a pre-made way to do something, he creates one.

    While trying to discover what kind of magic has been used for Voldemort’s diary, he gets deep into dark magic and history of the wizarding community. What ties a murder happened thirty years prior, a diary and dark magic? Regulus is one step away from the answer when the diary gets stolen.

    The Chamber of Secrets is open, classmates and friends are in danger, and rumour has it someone will die again before Yule. Will Regulus manage to close the Chamber before the worst happens? And what will that mean for his future?

    Summary

    Harry Potter is not a kind boy.

    Maybe he was once, when he was younger, but not anymore. He can't be kind, if he wants to survive the Dursleys. If he were kind, he'd still be locked in the cupboard under the stairs.

    Intelligence, cunning, and shrewdness; these are what give a boy power.

    Not such trivial things as kindness.

    *

    What if being a Parselmouth isn’t the only trait Harry inherited from Voldemort? How would things have been different, if Harry was just a little bit more like Voldemort?

    Regulus isn't a stranger to choices and fate. His entire life others have been making choices for him, until fate brought him to the Inferi infested Lake that almost killed him.

    But now, free from Azkaban, the Dark Lord gone - at least for the moment -, his brother imprisoned, and Grimmauld Place a stifling prison of his own, he thinks it's time to make his own fate.

    And what better way to start doing that than by kidnapping the Boy Who Lived when it's clear his guardians aren't fit for the task?

    Summary

    What I wanted to write was a quick one-shot that explored the idea of Harry being the biological son of Voldemort, only Voldemort doesn't know he has a son and is also as evil as ever. Meanwhile, Harry is just a charismatic kid with a snake and ridiculously powerful magic.

    It turned into a series rewrite.

    Here's book four.

    Features: a Harry Potter that has a bad feeling about this one, an Oliver Wood who's just heard of this new show called Friends and he's about to make that everyone else's problem, a Tom Riddle that has a REALLY bad feeling about this one, a Draco Malfoy that has done really pretty admirably not being dragged into the narrative for the last couple books if you really think about it, and both Sirius and Remus who are just. They're doing their best, they really are.

    Summary

    At the end of first year, Harry pocketed the Philosopher's Stone- in a secret pocket that everyone else missed.

    Now, two years later, Harry is in his third year, his friends are having the time of their lives in Hogsmeade, there's an escaped mass murderer running around, and Harry is going stir-crazy. Fortunately, the twins have a solution! Although- they're going to need something in return, and it needs to be good.

    Good thing Harry kept that Stone, huh?

    And then things go completely bat-shit crazy.

    (featuring the Marauders vs 1993, an exhausted Professor Lupin, a bewildered Harry Potter, and an opportunistic Hermione Granger)
