Summary
The wolf pulls back like the tide. Harry is left changed, shivering, bloodied. Another month, another Moon—the wave has taken him. It has borne him up and dashed him against the rocks.
The potion had worked, this month. Mostly.
. . .
Harry hadn't been able to make it to the Hound and Hare's Thursday Trivia Night, which was a shame because Draco had specifically invited him—but unfortunately the moon waits for no man.
Or, well. No wolf.
He expects to spend the grey dim light of his Friday morning licking his wounds, both literal and metaphorical.
He doesn't expect the barn owl, or the little care package clutched in her talons.

Summary
Hank remembers going through the intersection, the light green green green. He remembers Connor starting to sing along to a new song on a new station. He remembers seeing the flash of chrome through the passenger window, the laying on the horn, and Connor’s LED in the mirror flashing a brief, blood-red.
And then—

Summary
Markus hums again, leaning against the counter and watching Connor work. Summer’s a good look on him - the top few buttons of his shirt undone, sleeves rolled up to his elbows. A little bit of dirt from their garden under his nails, in the crease of his palm.

This Side of the Rain by Erinye

Summary
When Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell disappear, others are left to deal with the consequences of the return of magic to England: this side of the rain, Childermass and Segundus must work together for the greater good, but their paths have crossed many times over the years and feelings have been crushed in the process.
A tale of the man who asked The Question and set the revival of English magic in motion, and of the man who has always seemed to know where to look for answers - except to his own heart’s desires.

Summary
There’s a moment of tense silence in which Peter starts picking at his bandage, Barnes’ easy smile goes from relaxed to threatening, and Jason comes to the conclusion that he’s just come face to face with an abusive asshole, and a kid who’s probably being trafficked, and is in absolutely no position to do anything about it.
_____Peter and Bucky crash the DCU, Jason makes some assumptions, and between the three of them things go about as well as expected.

Summary
Bruce circles him. He’s barely broken a sweat, highly conscious of the lack of ache in his own muscles. “You need to improve your stamina,” he growls. “This isn’t good enough.”
His tone is cruel, biting.
Tim should lash out at it. He should snap back that he’s trying, that he’s doing his best, that he is improving.
Instead, he just nods, adjusting his stance. He swallows, throat audibly clicking with dehydration. “Again,” he croaks out. “Let’s do it again. I’ll get it this time.”
And Bruce should refuse. He should insist he take a break, should send him to go get something to drink, should tell him they’re done for the night so he won’t be too sore to train again tomorrow.
Instead, he matches his stance.

Summary
"Is there a reason you're calling this late at night?" Tony asks, worried in spite of himself. "Tell me what's going on, kid."
“Everything is one-hundred-percent fine,” Peter says. “Seriously, I've never been better. But I should let you know I have about thirty bricks of cocaine in my bedroom. Also, Karen won't let me turn off Instant Kill Mode. Also, Walmart discontinued my special razzleberry pink squeezy lemonade. Which isn't related to tonight's patrol, I'm just bummed about it.”
