Summary
When Steve nearly runs over Will Byers on that fateful night in 1983, he doesn’t expect offering him a ride home would result in both of them being hunted into another dimension. Surviving there is hard. Adapting to normal life again is even harder. His old self settles like an ill-fitting suit, and there’s no room for nightmares and fear and his new bond with Will in it. As he struggles to find a new normal he can live with, Steve finds himself befriending a bunch of kids and maybe (definitely) falling in love with a local weed dealer.

Summary
[Sokka is five when the first mark appears.
It writes itself in a deep red like a wound, as if someone had carved the word “nonbender” in a messy font across the knuckles of his left hand, as if it was handwritten with a knife.
When he asks his mother, as she applies salve on Sokka’s knuckles, she sighs deeply and says nothing for a few moments.
“Sometimes, spirits don’t make much sense.”
Sokka has yet to turn thirteen when he wakes up screaming in pain, about ten soulmarks all over each other between his left shoulder and his ear, red and vivid like burning flesh. Among the few words that are somehow possible to read out of the disastrous scribbling, “disrespectful” and “coward” and “burned” and “sorry sorry sorry” are the ones that stand out the most to Sokka. He thinks, at the tender age of twelve, whoever did this to his soulmate will be sorry too, one day.
A month after Hakoda leaves him with the job of the protector at the age of thirteen, Sokka realizes, with a bitter taste in his mouth, that he’s got more soulmarks than his entire village combined.]
Or, to have a soulmark is to carry the vilest things that your soulmate believes about themselves on your skin.

Summary
The defeat of the Fire Lord was meant to mark the end of the war. But when the Gaang arrives at the Caldera, they find Fire Lord Zuko waiting for them. That's when they learn that Azula has an older brother and ending a 100-year war may not be as straightforward as they thought.

Summary
The drama starts, as is often the case, in ANBU.
“No—it’s just—” it’s unusual to see an ANBU hesitate, much less stumble over their words. Stag visibly steels themself. “I’m not sure we should address Hokage-sama as male. Uzumaki-sama called Hokage-sama her wife.”
Beaver pauses. “Oh.”
“But then,” Ox says eventually, “what do we call Hokage-sama?”
// AKA Team Minato is alive and together, Konoha is thriving, and no one wants to accidentally misgender their beloved military dictator that everyone loves.

You've Got to Pick Up Every Stitch by Autumn_Rivers_Blaze
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
24 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
Steve has always felt like something is missing. A lack. An absence. Like there's something strange inside of him, just waiting to claw its way out. It’s a feeling that only starts to fade when Steve encounters the Upside Down.
He can’t deny that something strange is happening to him. The trees are calling, the flowers are listening, and his dreams are starting to seem more and more like memories than nightmares.

In other words, it’s a Steve’s-a-witch-AU. Title comes from the lyrics for the song ‘Season of the Witch’ by Donovan.Bookmarked by JuneyB

Summary
The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
It’s time to scheme.Series

Summary
King Steve was just another rung in the social ladder. Billy had climbed it before, swiftly and easily. He knew who to talk to and what to do to make it so that he was on top. Only, Hawkins isn't shaping up to be anything like the previous places he'd lived. Steve Harrington was hiding something and it sounded like the government was involved. Not to mention the weird group of people he'd somehow fallen into cahoots with. He hadn't planned for any of this, least of all wide bambi eyes that seemed to see stright through his walls.
OR: I gave Billy real friends because I can and he's not sure what he's supposed to do with that or the fact that the cute boy he's supposed to be socially usurping is covering up multiple deaths.

Summary
On the 30th of March, 1986, Robin and Steve decide to leave Hawkins behind them.
“I—I know it’s not great, y’know if you were planning on getting with someone.”
He grabs her shoulder, like he needs her to listen to him, like she’s not always listening to him. “I don’t give a shit about that. I don’t—I don’t know. It’s not something I like, need, Rob. I’ve got you, haven’t I? I would be happy living with you for the rest of my life, I guess. I don’t know.” He looks unfairly pretty in his cheap suit and the ugly overhead lights against the grey felt of her cubicle wall. “Probably sounds crazy,” he says, “sorry.”
“You should marry me for real,” she says, four years after they decided they were getting out. She should have known, even then, that they weren’t deciding to get out, they were deciding to choose each other over anything else.

Summary
“Don’t crack on me now, Munson,” Steve says.
“Aww,” Eddie replies, trying to make his tone its usual cloying flirtation, “didn’t think you cared, your highness.”
He twists his mouth up at the side. It doesn’t quite land on a smirk—he can feel the way it wobbles. If Harrington notices, he doesn’t call him on it.
With a roll of his eyes, Harrington responds, “like you said, no people means no help, means you’re all I’ve got.”
Or: Steve & Eddie get pulled into the Upside-Down and become reluctant allies. For survival.

Summary
“Yeah, sensei, do we pass?” Sasuke dangled the bells from the tip of his finger, a smug grin on his face. He was a bastard, Kakashi decided.
Actually, all of them were. Little shit bastards. Feral goblins. Hellspawn. If it wasn’t Sakura literally changing the landscape of the field underneath Kakashi’s feet, it was Sasuke swinging a sword crackling with lightning, both of them subtly herding him towards Naruto’s hundred shadow-clones, all of which were so fast he could barely track them even with the sharingan.
Kakashi was starting to think his team definitely didn’t have the same problems as the others.

Summary
“Um,” Robin says, “okay, so, it’s not anything bad I think? The doctor guy didn’t seem to be worried – or like, he was worried, but like normal worried. Normal hospital worried. Or – like, I don’t think anyone is in danger, basically! Except maybe us, but not like immediately? I think?”
Steve swallows, still tense.
‘Thank fuck,’ she hears Steve think. ‘I really can’t fight anything else, right now.’
She hears Steve think. Holy Shit.
“Holy shit,” Steve agrees. “Wait – Holy shit.”

Summary
Tim got used to it. The organized chaos. The chirping and cooing and occasional feathers in his coffee. The flock of doves following him around and nesting in his drawers. The murder of crows bringing him shiny trinkets and stealing his pens. It became his normal.
For over a year and some change, the Nest felt full. Lively. Predictable, even.
Until the day he came home from patrol, coffee in one hand, data chip in the other…
…and found a raven sitting on his desk.
Just—there. Like he owned the place.
Staring.
Silent.
Still.
Like a ghost.
And Tim—Tim just blinked and said, "Okay. That's new."

Summary
“Where is he?” The General asked, and Steve almost laughed in his face again.
“Ohhhh he’s long gone, you big asshole!” He smiled, and he could tell that the General didn’t like that. Good. “He’s probably calling Hopper and Hopper is calling the U.S. Cavalry, they’re going to come in here commando style, guns a-blazing and kick your sorry asses back to Russia, and you’re gonna be two pieces of toast.”
They laughed, because they knew it. Because there was no other possible future where the Russians won. He imagined the General, blood pooling around his body. Dead. The General would die, and Steve took comfort in that.
The General nodded at Steve, a smug smile spreading on his face, then turned to the Doctor and spoke some Russian. They talked there for a moment, then they both walked out without another word.
“That’s bad right?” Steve asked once they were alone again.
“Uh, yeah. Yeah, that’s pretty bad.”
They leaned their heads on each others’ shoulders, and they stayed silent for a very long time. He focused on nothing but the connection, and hoped everything would sort itself out. He hoped Henderson was on his way.

Summary
Steve Harrington was predictable. He was popular, rich, and people liked him, but that made him boring. He knew, just like everyone else knew, exactly what the rest of his life would look like. He’d graduate, go to some business school, get a job at his Dad’s company (where he would some day take over), settle down with a nice girl, get married, have two and a half kids and a dog, and he’d never amount to anything. This is a tale that has been told over and over again. This is a very old tale.
This is not the correct tale.
Upside Down Detected, Game Mode Unlocked!
Steve's life has suddenly become an RPG. Oh, joy.

Summary
The Guardian Oath was more than a promise to protect children.
It was a marriage oath.
The marriage may have been strained lately, with none the wiser for it, but the past weekend and a new husband were just the thing to bring all the problems to light.
Too bad said 'new husband' has no idea he just got married.
Now, with spiritual politics, threats to the children, and an oblivious husband to woo, the Guardians have their hands full like never before.
"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to be this hard.
(Or, the one where the Guardians are married and everyone forgot to tell Jack.)

Summary
The knot of anxiety in Yuuri’s stomach loosened with the knowledge that his idea to surprise Viktor wasn’t being rejected.
“Oh! I’ve actually always wanted to learn Russian! It’d make things way easier when I’m watching certain ballet videos.” (Minako-sensei, waving her sake glass around so wildly that a majority of it sloshes out directly onto Lutz’s head)
“This will probably require some clandestine family meetings via Skype…you better come up with a good cover story, otouto, or Vik-chan will get suspicious and think you’re cheating on him.” (Mari-neechan, folding her arms against her chest with a wry smirk)
Yuuri began to splutter at that last one, though he could honestly see the scenario his sister voiced playing out in reality; he Skyped his family/friends pretty regularly, but even he had to admit that this scheme would require multiple video calls a week.
—
Given Viktor’s estrangement from his parents, Yuuri can see how much he’s hurting in the course of planning their wedding. In an effort to remind him that he’s already a Katsuki, he enlists his friends and family in a secret, 10-month scheme to learn Russian, culminating with a speech for Viktor at their receptionBookmarked by JuneyB
