    Summary

    Five years ago, Lucas Portstrong tried to be a savior.

    He offered a starving street kid a bath, a meal, and a moment of dignity. In return, he got a lesson in just how cruel the world could be.
    When a stowaway tumbles out of a barrel on his ship, he recognizes the boy immediately.

    This time, Lucas has the power. He could take his justice.

    He should.

    But the boy standing before him is nothing like the thief he remembers.
    And for all his power, Lucas is proving remarkably bad at knowing what to do with it.

    Summary

    He couldn’t speak — hadn’t, anyway, in… months, years, he wasn’t sure. He knew how to make the words, what they meant, but instinct entirely overruled him every time he tried to reach for them. Other people close enough to talk to meant danger, a kind of danger his body, high-strung and restless from living on the road, couldn’t bear. He had been alone too long to suppress the urge, to try and sneak or hide or pass himself off as somebody’s pup. Unbidden, he heard himself growling all the time now: the low, discontent rumble of hunger or discomfort, the hackles-raised rising warning of leave me alone, fuck off, and the all-out teeth-bared snarl of don’t touch me, get off, let me go!


    Felix is a feral pup, used to living wild. But when he's caught stealing and given away to a strange pack, he has to try and learn to accept comfort, to trust that not all alphas are a threat.

    Summary

    Peter got a Stark phone when he was ten. Adrian took him to a big store with lots of TV screens that all played the same video of Tony Stark declaring to the world that he was Iron Man. They ducked behind the microwaves, both of them giggling as Adrian stuffed the phone under Peter’s sweater.
    They walked right out the door without tripping the alarm, and Adrian bought him ice cream to celebrate.

    After his parents die, Peter is taken in by the Toomes family. Things slowly, then quickly spiral out of control. All Adrian wants is to take revenge on Tony Stark. All Peter wants is to do the right thing. Why is that so much harder than expected?

    Summary

    "When I get to Paris, I’m going to stack books eight deep everywhere, I’ll borrow them off friends, I’ll have one with me always.”

    “Friends?” Azelma repeated, curious.

    Enjolras faltered. “Yes,” he said, but quietly now. “I mean, I hope so.”

    --

    Or, what if Enjolras was the one raised by the Thénardiers, and no mysterious benefactor came to rescue him.

    Summary

    The precinct is wildly disorienting at first: the high exposure of the fluorescent lights, frantic cops milling about without apparent rhyme or reason, phones and pagers filling the air with their high-pitched screams. Stone-faced detectives with blood-spattered shoes.

    It’s a frazzled secretary that gets to them first, but whatever she says is lost to May’s ears—because at that moment, all she sees is Peter.

    (Or, 5 times May was there for Peter, +1 time he was there for her.)
