Summary
“Conserve your energy. We don’t want you dying just yet.” The man chuckled. “That wouldn’t help either of us, would it? No, a measly wound won't kill you. You're too stubborn for that.” That voice. It sounded so, so familiar…
The man turned his face, giving Lance a clear view of his side profile. Lance's heart dropped, and he sucked in a large breath.
His hair was dark, there was a white streak at the front, in the exact spot. The exact same spot. A thousand thoughts raced through his head, each more insane than the last. All competence left him, not that he had much to begin with. He uttered a single word, a single name, so powerful it left Lance's knees shaking.
“Shiro?”

Summary
When their mission to Zygerria goes sideways, Anakin accepts the Queen's deal.
It's been two years since his death.
Padmé is heartbroken, but she continues to be strong for the Republic. Obi-wan is broken, but he needs to put up a front for his new padawan. Ahsoka struggles to fit back into her old life without Skyguy. She just knows he's still out there even if the Jedi won't believe her.
And Anakin, well he doesn't quite know who he is supposed to be anymore. A brave hero, or a submissive slave? Whispers of freedom and a life he once had haunt him as he drowns everything out. He wants that life back, but he doesn't dare run from the one he has now.

Summary
“Lance, you need to stop. You’re barely focusing in your classes. You’re going to fail the upcoming test.”
“That doesn’t matter,” Lance answered. “Not anymore. This is a conspiracy, Allura. It goes beyond you, or me.”
“Does it go beyond us?” She asked, voice barely above a whisper. “Does Keith Kogane matter to you more than I do?”
“I need to find him, Allura. I need to.”
"No," her voice cracked. "You want to."(Or, the one where there are spells to remind you of things you've forgotten, and Lance wakes up one day to find he's forgotten an entire person. Keith Kogane's name burns on his wrist, and he will find him. Even if it kills him.)

Lance never asked to be chosen as the Blue Paladin, but he's not complaining.
Much.
What he is complaining about, is that he has to deal with murderous, psychotic magical drug addicts. But hey, just another day in the life of Lance.
But, really, is it too hard to wait twenty minutes?Series

Summary
It was a stupid mistake. A silly, stupid mistake. It was never supposed to escalate this much. It was never supposed to cause this much trouble.
He grabbed the wrong briefcase. That was it. That was all.
He didn't know it would be this dangerous.
And now, one by one, his entire team is going to fall. All because of one stupid, silly, little mistake.
(Or the one where Havoc goes straight up Rambo, Hawkeye gets a taste for human flesh, Fuery uses his Fuery-ness to get himself out of this situation, Falman stabs a man or two, Mustang learns a new use for flame alchemy, Ed learns about the wonderful world of torture and espionage, and Breda just wants a nap)

Summary
Allura had told them once that Voltron was their destiny.
If anything, Keith thinks, Lance had proven that while finding the lions might have been on the dime of some greater plan, compliance to their supposed fate was not strictly required in any remote sense of the word.
In fact, by Lance's standard of doing things it was all rather bullshit.
(Or: The story of the destruction of Earth and its aftermath, feat. questionable science in regards to weapons of mass destruction, gratuitous Star Wars references, theoretical chess games with the emperor of most of the known universe, explosions, the greatest bromance of all time, the worst romance of all time, far too many guns, concussions, extreme misuse of the French language, awkward flirting, and Lance in an overly-dramatic trench coat.)

the justifications of star-crossed lovers by rweoutofthewoods

Summary
Star-crossed (adjective)
not favored by the stars : ILL-FATED
a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life
— William ShakespeareKeith never believed in fate, it seemed stupid to him, a way to blame the universe, to avoid taking accountability. So an Altean prophecy? No way, Keith couldn't believe that. No prophecy was going to tell him what to do or how to live his life. All that nonsense about traitors, destruction, and sacrifices, was bullshit... none of his friends would ever betray each other, right? But no matter what you believe, the end always comes.

Miles Edgeworth: The Ace Attorney by charybdiaa

Summary
Miles Edgeworth: The Ace Attorney follows Miles Edgeworth, a young, rookie defense attorney with a heart of gold and a passion for law. After concluding his first trial, where he ruthlessly defends his childhood friend Larry Butz, his life is led down a series of sharp turns as he loses the only authority figure that kept him grounded. Over this series of events he learns about family, love, and the true meaning of legacy, as well as the unknown history of his own family. And maybe, along the way, he reconnects with an old friend?
(This is a novelization of the first Phoenix Wright game with the roles reversed. It includes heavy dialogue and full illustrations, as well as a lot of original character art! It isn't perfect, but it's one of my favorite projects.)
