Summary
The cafe au where they're... still assassins?
Yep that's right. Rei is a top assassin with a caffeine addiction, Kazuki is a barista by day, and a strategist--working reconnaissance for the organization--by night. Everyday Rei stumbles into the cafe in need of a fix, Kazuki serves him the usual, and they go about their lives, but some big changes are on the horizon. Somewhere along the way a child makes her way into their lives, and strangers become roommates, work partners, then... more?
OR
an alternate beginning to their little family

Summary
Harry comes skidding around the corner, James trailing behind, holding the newspaper up as if he was still reading it. James’s face is arranged in an animated expression of shock, golden brown eyes wide in a way that would be comical in any other situation. Remus meets his gaze, his heart hammering and brain buffering, but both him and James must be on the same page because at the same time they breathe out the name, his name, “Sirius.”
or
"The Prisoner of Azkaban" if things had turned out a little different.
Sirius has escaped prison, but Harry, James, and Remus don't know why. All they know is they will have to stick together as a family, even as two of them head off for Hogwarts. Will James be reunited with his best friend? Will Remus get to see his love after all this time? Will Harry finally get to meet his infamous godfather? And will Sirius Black ever walk as a free man again?or
a loving family who has lost a lot, but is healing slowly with the help of each other

Summary
How is one supposed to act when your friends are picked off one by one? They’re locked up, they leave, they die. Remus can never, will never blame James for that, but it’s difficult when all he wants to do is blame somebody, anybody. And so Remus does what he does best: bottle it up until the bottle breaks.
Or
Remus and James get into a fight, sending Remus on a collision course... literally. But a dicey apparition, a bar fight, and a near-drowning (in a puddle) later, he finds himself in the care of Madam Pomfrey, who is probably the only person who could fix this situation. After a cup of tea, a good cry, and a much needed talk, Remus might be on the way to healing himself, and his friendship with James--some of the only family he has left.

Summary
Ice poured down his back, a feeling he hadn’t felt since the time Miri had caught a fever on his watch. The all consuming fear wiped his brain clean of anything logical. The dog, according to Miri, was very nice and liked to be scratched behind the ears, but all Rei saw was glinting, snarling teeth and wide, crazed eyes, ready to take a bite. In reality the dog had not even noticed him, but it didn’t matter. She would kill him, and he had to run.
OR
Ever since that night, Rei has been afraid of dogs, and when the neighbor's dog gets out, the memories come flooding back. His family is there to help him through the fear, and some new feelings come to light (or rather old feelings get confirmed) between Rei and Kazuki.

Summary
Cardan accidently scares Jude awake, and things go badly. Knives are drawn, flashbacks are had, but with a little patience and the chance to try again, sometimes the night can still end well.
OR
Cardan has trauma, Jude has trust issues, and when the two combine it doesn't go well, but don't worry, they're lovers so obviously the night ends with cuddles and a cozy bed.

Summary
It’s not fair. It’s all Neil can think, childish and foolish and true. It’s not fair. It’s not fair. It never has been. The tickets weigh as much as a coffin lid, as the lie that is Neil Josten. Kevin’s hand is still on top of his and his fingers tremble. Neil stares. It’s his left hand, a solid reminder of the bastion of cruelty these tickets are going to lead him to.
“I’m sorry.” Kevin whispers.
Neil barks a bitter laugh that ravages his throat and tucks the tickets into his pocket. “Yeah, me too.”Or:
Nathaniel Wesninski dies in a basement in Baltimore. Neil Josten wakes up on the bleachers in Millport. One of them still has to get Jean out of the Nest.SEQUEL TO YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN KID (YOU ALWAYS HAVE BEEN)

Summary
Sometimes, when Jean shows up, the soft rev of his motorcycle announcing his arrival, James joins him and they work in comfortable silence together. Other times, James steps into his backyard after a day out of the house, and the only signs Jean has been there are the neatly trimmed bushes, weedless soil, and a basket full of fresh vegetables sitting on the back steps.
5 AM for a student-athlete who had played a tough game the night before is just too early for James to let slide. He sighs and flicks on the coffee machine before making his way outside.
Or, a collection of moments where Jean gardens and Rhemann helps his kid heal.

Summary
Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.
Frigging fantastic.
(Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)
