Ties That Bind by iTony

Summary
In 2006, the Umbrella Academy was a power house of vigilante justice, revered by the masses and ready to protect the world! Until it, like one of its members, faced a tragic and unexpected end.
This is the story of how the Umbrella Academy operated: the shared joys and sorrows experienced by its extraordinary teenage superheroes, who unwittingly lived their lives sheltered within its walls and stunted by its structure.
This is also the story of how the Umbrella Academy dissolved, and with it, the lives of those who survived.
In other words: the novel-length, canon-compliant, zany, sad, and cathartic prequel that you never knew you needed.

Summary
“Who–” he starts to say, high pinched, but his searching glances stop at the desperate pale green eyes and he knows.
The man stares at him without blinking, chest rising and falling quickly before he stops and takes carefully controlled breaths. Viktor stares back, eyes wide and holding his breath, not daring to believe, but doing anyway.
“Viktor,” he rasps, voice almost unrecognizable. But that’s his brother, that’s his brother.
Or: Five returns after two years and eight months missing, for his siblings anyway.

Summary
It’s the middle of the night when Vanya finds her badly injured brother in the courtyard, six weeks after he vanished. Unable to remember anything, Five can’t shake the feeling he’s meant to be doing something important, and he won’t stop until he figures it out. Where did he go? When did he go? Why can’t he remember?
And why does he feel like he’s being watched?

“I warned you of the dangers, of the ill-effects even the attempt could have on your mind and body. It is of no pleasure to me to see I was correct.
“Our own Icarus, your arrogance has led you to your undoing.”

Summary
formerly titled "like lovecraft in brooklyn"
Sometimes Six thought about turning himself inside out. About opening the portal wide and swallowing himself whole. Then what would he see? Where would he be? What would he be?
-
A slice of life/coming of age AU in which Ben survives and Five isn't stranded in the future, focused on character development and sibling dynamics, exploring how the characters are shaped by their upbringing through Ben's perspective. Also, a heavy helping of contemplation on the Horror. In which somehow, coexisting with an alien body double proves less fraught than forming a family.

Summary
“If you never time travelled, you never got caught up with the Handler, what would have happened?”
“I guess I would have grown up to be an emotionally stunted man-child like everybody else around here.”When Five goes to time travel, he’s stopped by an older version of himself who already made that mistake.
