Summary
Luffy goes back again, and again, and again.
There's little changes, little things that happen, little things that don't, but the important part is that he has his crew alongside him the entire time, right?
It would be, if his crew were beside him.

Summary
The path towards the sun, towards freedom, is not an easy path. Ace, Sabo and Luffy, three brothers with dreams of seeking such freedom, know this better than anyone. Five years on, and it almost seems hopeless. But perhaps a few helping hands, and an old pirate's offer, can give them everything the world had tried so hard to take away.
Or:
How Ace, Sabo and Luffy were slaves once, and how a family of pirates help them break their chains.

Summary
“Your grief wasn’t in vain because the Sabo you knew died.” Sabo says frankly, and it feels like getting punched in the gut. “From the fire that killed him, I was born.”
“...What are you trying to say?”
“They say memories make us who we are.” Sabo starts. “But I don’t remember anything from before I was ten.”
In which: Ace punches Sabo, Sabo punches back and sometimes you have to start from the beginning.

Summary
“Wade! Where the hell is he? I literally went dumpster diving for him and that bastard had the audacity to not show his face all night!”
Peter is sprawled all over Wade’s grimy apartment floor, eyes closed and mask off. He’s tracing the patterns in the tile with his gloved fingers. He’s on his fifteenth minute of ranting about his conspicuous lack of Daredevil and he can feel Wade’s veil of patience fracturing with every word that leaves his mouth.
(All Peter wants is to befriend his local devil. Just making his acquaintance would be nice. A friendly handshake would suffice. Even just an autograph. Wade's not exactly interested in facilitating these goals.)

Summary
“Pay attention,” Miles said. “This guy is trying to steal my identity, my home, and my life.”
“Yeah, I heard you, bro,” Bitsy said. “And this other guy showed up out of nowhere, like, exactly Spidey’s size and talking with a weird old Queens accent. He tried to tell us that he was Spidey, which is nuts, because Spidey talks like Wade and Wade talks like a guy who heard gangsters on TV in the 40s and decided that he was going to stick with that for life.”
“What’s Tats doing about it? Has he told you anything?” Miles asked hurriedly.
“I believe that he’s decided to set the guy on fire,” Bitsy deadpanned.
(Miles wakes up one morning to find that he, Miles Morales, and he, Spiderman, have been replaced. And it's not just him. He and the other Spiderpeople scramble to figure out who these imposters are and what they want before they're all phased out of their own lives.)

Summary
When Rokudaime Hatake Kakashi decides one day that he disagrees with reality, the world quietly trembles in fear.
“I was put on the team because the village considers you a flight risk. I was ordered to keep an eye on you and Naruto both. Naruto because he is the Fourth’s Legacy, and you because of your Sharingan.”
Sasuke nods, figuring as much, though his expression turns grim.
“That was until I decided that I disagreed.” He smiled. In simple words, fuck that.
“You’re not the flight risk. I am.” Kakashi finished with a hidden smile, knife edge sharp.

How to Redeem Your Past Mistakes, Commit Mild Treason, and Accidentally Build a Family by themidnightguardian

Summary
If Kakashi hadn’t seen Naruto living in squalor and Sasuke’s personal trauma shrine and whatever civilian fuckery was happening at Sakura’s house, he’d have at least tried to fail them even if logic told him the Elder Council would never let it fly. Screw the Hokage for that.
* * * * * * * * * *
When the Sandaime showed him Naruto’s apartment, he didn’t think that was going to be the tip of the iceberg that was the shitshow of his soon-to-be team. But as it turned out, Naruto wasn't the only one with a less-than-optimal home life. And as it turned out, Kakashi was apparently the only person in Konoha who cared.

Summary
“Is that what this is?” Peter gestured between them, "Spider solidarity?"
"Is that a thing?" Hawkeye grinned, "Please tell me it's a thing. Spidey squad has such a great ring to it."
"It's not." Peter shot back.
"It could be." Natasha edged closer. “The Avengers could really use someone with your skillset.”
“It won’t be.” Peter hopped onto the roof edge, fingers itching towards his web shooters. Peter was starting to seriously consider carrying around a no soliciting sign. "I’m not interested."Or:
With the recent formation of “Team Red”, increased public scrutiny, applying for an internship and the uptick of classwork in college; the last thing Peter wanted was to get sucked into the Avenger’s initiative. It doesn’t matter what Peter wants apparently, because he gets sucked into Avenger drama anyways.

Summary
The last thing Peter sees is Tony's horrified, heartbroken expression leaning over him. The guilt in his eyes is almost worse than the burning pain that's taking Peter apart piece by piece. The world starts to go dark.
There's a flash of gold and green. For one moment, he finds himself standing amongst the Guardians and others. And then darkness again. It feels like blinking; an extended period of nothingness that ends as abruptly as it begins. One moment there’s nothing, the next there’s light.
“Easy,” a woman says. Her words are gentle, and carry a slight accent that he can’t place. "I'm called Wonder Woman. What's your name?"

Summary
After his aunt and uncle were murdered Peter was put into foster care. Too many neglecting and abusive homes later he runs to live on the street. He knows he is smart and will make it work.
And he did. Successfully for over a year now.
In all this time he did the thing he never wanted to do again, he let people in. Even though he loves his friends he doesn’t tell them who he is under the mask. They know Spider-Man and that is more than enough.
Because he knows they wouldn’t want a fifteen year old homeless teenager with trauma piled to the moon in their lives. So the mask stays on.
What if that fact changes though?- Language:

Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.
