    Summary

    Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.

    It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.

    Fantastic.

    Summary

    When Keith Kogane’s older brother gets a job transfer to Oʻahu, Hawaii, Keith makes the biggest decision of his life: leave behind everything familiar in Texas to finish college in a place that feels more like a postcard than reality.

    The move comes with its perks. He’s reunited with his childhood friend Katie "Pidge" Holt, now deep in their studies and tangled up in a tight-knit group of friends that Keith somehow manages to fit into.

    But nothing could have prepared him for Lance.

    One of Pidge’s closest friends, Lance is effortlessly charming, infuriatingly loud, absurdly talented, and, unfortunately, the prettiest boy Keith has ever seen.

    Now juggling school, new friendships, motorcycle rides along the coast, and a rivalry he absolutely refuses to call flirting, Keith is discovering that maybe change isn’t such a bad thing, and maybe, the most unexpected people can get under your skin in the most unexpected ways.

    Summary

    Only a fool, a complete and utter idiot would let themselves fall for the Untouchable Keith Kogane. Lance is— to all who know him— the fool-iest fool to ever fool.

    Or

    Keith and Lance are teachers at Garrison University and (to no one’s surprise) they can’t stand each other. It’s unfortunate that the universe —and everyone else— is dead set on making sure they spend the most time together possible.

    Summary

    “Bucky—“ Joaquin starts. “Er— I mean… Sargent Barnes? Senator? Whatever, just listen. He isn’t conscious yet, and—“

    “I just want to check on him,” Bucky says, “He doesn’t have to be awake for me to see if he’s okay.”

    “Well— yeah,” Joaquin says. “But listen, he’s— he’s different.”

    And this, finally, has Bucky stop in his tracks, in the middle of a sterile corridor with painfully bright fluorescents humming overhead.

    “Different?” Bucky repeats. “Different how?”

    “They did things to him,” Joaquin says. He’ll hardly meet his eyes. “He- He was awake, sort of, when we found him. And he wasn’t— I mean, he wasn’t not Sam, but he was… wrong. In shock, maybe, but they did things to him, experiments, and—“

    And maybe Joaquin thought this would make Bucky hesitate. Maybe he thought Bucky would listen more once he heard the gravity of the situation.

    Instead, Bucky sets off in a run.

    ***

    Or rather, that fic where Sam Wilson gets actual wings after being captured and experimented on, and Bucky Barnes is there to help him learn how to live again.

    Summary

    "What if everyone forgot who I was?"

    It's been three days after Peter Parker was erased from everyone's memories. He found a small, cheap apartment on the far east side of Queens. He's living off what Aunt May had saved up and his own earnings from his past part time jobs. It's the middle of winter and his apartment's heater is broken and everything in his life is a mess. He's afraid to find MJ and Ned again, and second guessing himself entirely, wondering if they are better off without him. And yet, the New York still needs Spiderman, no matter what Peter Parker's personal issues are. Peter uses crime fighting as a way to avoid the harsh reality that nobody on Earth knows he exists. One night, while handling an illegal arms deal in Brooklyn, Peter's helped by a man with a metal arm. Extremely strong, fast, and clearly experienced, his appearance and fighting technique seems vaguely familiar to Peter. An old memory jogs Peter's mind: "You have a metal arm? That is awesome, dude!"
