Summary
"When Ignis’ fingers fail him as they trace, haltingly, across the raised bumps and dots, turning letters into other letters or losing the thread of a sentence, when he wants to quit, Gladio takes up the slack. He finds the passage in his own book, and his rich voice fills the room, weaving stories and characters and life and death.
Slowly, Ignis’ fingers fail him less and less – but Gladio reads aloud more and more."
After a car accident takes Ignis' eyesight, Gladio moves into his apartment and helps him learn to adjust.

Summary
Hanzo Shimada regrets ever joining Overwatch after he is paired with Jesse McCree, known cowboy enthusiast, and dropped off in the middle of American suburbia. Forced to blend in with the environment, endure neighborhood cookouts, and share his new living space with his so-called 'Husband', the two prepare to preform the ultimate sting operation: taking down the Vishkar corporation once and for all. He can't help but think this will all go horribly wrong.
Or, alternatively titled: the undercover fake-marriage fic that every fandom deserves.

Summary
Jesse came to a full stop. This wasn't a whale or some unfortunate dolphin. The top half of the creature exposed itself as a man.
“Shit.”
Jesse felt his hand go to the revolver at his side, brushing the handle and approached the seemingly unconscious creature. Mers were not something he had experience with. They were a menace to sailors. Jesse had never seen one - much less one washed up on a lonely stretch of beach looking like it had been run through a shredder.

Summary
“Do you know what you are here for?”
Jesse scratched behind his ear, a little thrown. This, right here, was why Jesse fucking hated going undercover. Talk, talk, talk. Usually, Jesse got bored very quickly, and when Jesse got bored, his trigger finger tended to get itchy. Besides, they’d confiscated his goddamned gun. That was a downright depressing thing to do to a man, that was.
“I’m here as hired muscle, yeah?”
“Yes,” Hanzo said disdainfully. “‘Hired muscle’. What do you know about me?”

Summary
Cullen is a construction worker newly diagnosed with cancer. He befriends Dorian at a meditation group shortly after, and the two hit it off. Mostly a quiet, steady romance with a lot of hurt/comfort mixed in.
“Ah, yes, I complained bitterly of the cold to you. No wonder you remember me.”
It was rainy that night, and icy. The wet got into your bones, a hard sensation to recall in the midst of a hot summer. “You were also wearing a comically large scarf,” Cullen says.

Summary
What followed was the most bizarre courtship Q had ever—well, heard of, certainly. He didn’t have much to compare it to, but Moneypenny confirmed that normal people didn’t flirt like this. Not that he was normal. Not that any of them were.
Or: Q has a past, a cat, and a dangerous new boyfriend. Two of these things keep him up nights, the other pees in a box.

Summary
It's common knowledge that angels make good weapons and terrible soldiers. They're hard to kill, hard to catch, and leave a swathe of destruction wherever they go. That's why MI6 likes them.
James Bond, Agent 007, is one of the most devastating weapons MI6 will admit to having. Explosions follow his every whim and he's nearly impossible to kill, despite the best efforts of terrorists worldwide. He's second only to the weapons MI6 pretends don't exist- archangels are only a theory, after all.
Aren't they?
