Summary
"He's just like-"
“Like you were, when you first came here?” Xavier’s gaze was far too piercing. It sliced Logan to the bone, and he could feel his skin prickle where phantom blades cut through it.
“Exactly,” Logan growled, refusing to let Xavier see just how much that bothered him. “That’s why the kid’s dangerous.”
“That’s why he needs help,” Xavier pressed gently, as if he was chiding Logan for his hostility. “And that is why you are the best equipped to help him.”
__________________________
In which Logan accidentally volunteers to help babysit the latest addition to the Xavier Institute, a strange new student that was quite literally left on their doorstep. However, this student isn't quite a "student" at all; it is a weapon left without a handler. Unfortunately, the new mutant now thinks Logan is his handler. Even more unfortunately, Logan knows more about this situation than he would like to.AKA an AU that embellishes on the fact that Kurt was being used as a weapon by Stryker at the beginning of X2, turning the situation into a recovery scenario that ends up helping both Kurt and Logan overcome their Weapon X conditioning.

Summary
Only in limitation does the master show himself, and only the law can give us freedom.
His name was Corvo Attano, a man of the empire, come to clean up.
For far too long, eternal city had poisoned the organism from the shadows of the empire. Like swollen, infested ticks, the outlaws of the fetid city spoiled the healthy flesh of the system.
If you asked Garrett, the flesh of the system was a rotten fish at best. But after all, he was one of those ticks that the man had come to pull._____________
This may be slow burn and a long story, but if there's something I really pay attention to it's keeping Corvo and Garrett (and all of the others too) in character.
This is a mix between the old thief games and the reboot, but you don't have to know the old games to understand what's going on. :)

Summary
A reformed vampire posing as a Doctor hides his hunger and identity, but when an old enemy resurfaces and temptation strikes, his carefully constructed life begins to unravel in blood and secrets.
Or
the one where Vlad is Dennis Whitaker and Jonathan Van Helsing runs into him at the hospital.
He might also be losing control over his hunger, just maybe.

Summary
In the Kodak Theatre of Hollywood, an award-winning director vanishes from stage following a temporary power outage. Hours later, he is found in a closet, strangled to death. In Manaus, Brazil, a prison riot ends in disaster after the gang executes the hostages in response to the unforeseen deaths of the gang leader and his two best assassins. It's speculated that someone within their ranks killed the three, but the case for who runs cold. In Copenhagen, Denmark, a day at the amusement park becomes catastrophic as the company CEO, the park manager, and a foreign tourist turn up dead. The truth behind the park unearths in the aftermath, and several conspiracy theories form around the deaths; but nothing is concrete.
Agent 47 takes on a multitude of contracts that will solidify his status as an urban legend. From a coal mine in China to the hunting grounds of a red room livestream; from the top 1% to human sex traffickers, each chapter focuses on a singular contract and different targets. At the same time, a global conspiracy grows larger and larger.
Not every chapter will feature the warning content. Ones that do will have the appropriate warnings in the top notes.

Summary
"Were you working with Ray back then?"
"No."
"Who'd you run it with?"
The names had caught in his throat for a moment, heart ticking up a couple of beats.
"Albert Stroller, Stacie Monroe, Three Socks Morgan, and Mickey Bricks."

Or: At the end of season 1, a few things go differently and Danny decides to take up Scottish Ray on his offer of a new crew. Things have a way of coming together even after they fall apart.
