Summary
The Hargreeves siblings run away from home at thirteen.
The world doesn’t end when they do, even though it feels like it will. Maybe that’s because it’s hard to fully let go; it’s going to take them years to fully leave that place, if they ever do. It’s kind of like the apocalypse in that way. The more you run, the more it wants to chase you.
But, when they have each other — turns out, it’s a lot easier to deal with. The hard part is navigating through their new, messy relationships that comes with finally be free of the man who wanted them to despise each other. But if there’s one thing they all have in common, it’s resilience.
And that’ll get them through it.
(Five, instead of proving his father wrong by time travelling, makes a different choice at the dinner table. and what ends up coming from it.)

Summary
As Harry Potter slays the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, blood and venom get in his eyes, mostly blinding him. While Harry learns to adapt, he makes some new friends. But this is more than a story of adaptation and friendship as there are threats... and Harry isn't the only one with a past that haunts him.

Hank Anderson never expected to have anything pinned to his fridge again- not pictures or crayon drawings or homework assignments. But now, there's a list- an important one, a reminder.
It reads: STUFF CONNOR LIKES, and they need to figure out what to put on it.

Summary
"Connor became ‘woke’, as the kids say, on a biting December morning. Upon careful consideration, he determined it was best not to tell anybody."
List of things Connor has ruined since he deviated: the police force. Hunts for deviants. The printer. Lieutenant Anderson’s patience. Gavin Reed’s kneecap. The sense of safety and security that came when you were not acting as a double agent for the month old yet still unsuccessful terrorist organization and spilling confidential government secrets. The coffee machine. His life.
Mostly his life.

Summary
Post-season 1 of Moon Knight, it's a new age of the world, where the cosmic power balances are shifting. Steven, Marc, and Jake start meeting Avengers, making tentative connections and allies with the wider MCU, all while working on internal team-building efforts with each other.
Roughly follows the canon timeline in Phase Four, with some events rearranged so our guys can meet the characters before their movies happen. Gets more canon-divergent in Phase Five, as the little changes add up.

Summary
When Luke Skywalker—operating under the name of Luke Lars—accepts a job offer from none other than Darth Vader to become the next Head Engineer aboard his flagship, The Executor, a.k.a. The Lady, he hardly expected his life to take as much of a turn as it did.
Learning how to navigate his way through the microcosm of culture that is the Lady, Luke finds that life is far from quiet in his new home. Friendships and rivalries are made, inventions and politics throw everything into disarray, and throughout it all, Luke and Vader slowly find themselves drawn closer to each other, much to the relief and awe of many of the Lady's crewmembers.
Follow our favorite engineer from the twin suns as he goes from strangers, to friends, to adoptive family with his mysterious new mentor, and changes the face of the galaxy forever in the process. There are mysteries about the past to be unraveled, inventions to be made, wars to be fought, and family bonds to be forged in the fires of revolution and rebellion.
They say that Darth Vader has no heart, that the Empire and its Emperor are eternal, that the Jedi are dead and gone, and that nothing will ever change.
"They" have obviously never met Luke Skywalker before.

Summary
PET Mail, made up of Pearl, Etho, and Tango, are asymptomatic carriers of the zombie virus that has wrecked their world ever since the bombs fell. While this bars them from interacting with the uninfected outside of special circumstances, it allows them to use their powers to deliver mail across distances and locations that would be too dangerous for the uninfected to travel. Traveling, meanwhile, allows them to never stay in one place long enough for the feelings to catch up.
Unless, of course, the mail is personal.

Summary
Kaz Brekker had no daemon, people in the Barrel whispered.
He'd sold his soul to the devil in exchange for eternal life.
He kept his daemon locked in a safe so nobody could use her against him.
He was a demon, a ghost, a malevolent spirit, something out of a children’s story. Something other and soulless, to be avoided and feared from a distance.
Inej didn’t believe those stories.

“Tim,” she says, hesitant in a way that she never is, not when it’s just the two of them, “About settling.”
Thirteen is hardly unreasonable to be unsettled, but rare given their night activities, and Tim’s been thinking hard about what Hestia will choose.
“I don’t think I want to settle,” she says quietly, interrupting his train of thought, “Maybe not ever.”
“Okay,” replies Tim, stroking a careful finger over her soft brown snout, “Not if you don’t want to.”
