Summary
It wasn’t supposed to matter. He was just another new reporter. Quiet, competent, weirdly polite.
Lois Lane clocked him in five seconds and dismissed him in ten.Until she didn’t.
Because Clark Kent always seems to know when she’s about to spiral. He remembers her coffee, her schedule, the fact that she forgets to eat lunch. He’s clumsy and soft-spoken and too damn sincere.
And when he’s not there, she notices.
And when someone else makes him laugh, she notices that too.Lois isn’t sure what to do with that.
But it’s becoming harder to ignore.- Language:

Summary
Joel sounds a thousand miles away. “Ellie? Are you listening? I said, don’t you *ever* do that again.”
Well, she thinks deliriously, that won’t be a problem after all.
“Ellie, what—?”
It feels like she has no control over her body anymore, like it’s someone else who is extending her arm, pulling back her sleeve, and exposing a ring of broken skin. She hears Joel stop breathing when he sees it too.
She's been bitten.
________AU where Ellie is already traveling across the country with Joel when she gets bitten.

Summary
He knows from the moment he sees Joel helping the girl down from the horse she’s on that something’s up. There’s an ease to the movement that says he almost certainly helped her up on the horse as well, and the way she moves with absolute trust that he won’t let her fall says there’s a bond there that’s had time to develop.
The girl sticks close to Joel’s side, eyes wary, as he guides her back over.
“This is Ellie,” Joel says before turning to her. “This is my brother, T-”
“Tommy, yeah. I heard. Not all of us have shit ears, grandpa.”
He blinks at the comment, but Joel doesn’t seem offended, even as he rolls his eyes.
This is his second hint.
(Ellie and Joel from Tommy's POV, ft. some jelly Ellie, Ellie whump, and family bonding)

Summary
Peter is caught, half way in his spider-suit when Mr. Harrington walks through the door.
Peter stares at him, eyes wide. Mr. Harrington stares back.
“I, uh, there’s an attack downtown and I..?”
“Go,” Mr. Harrington says with all the exasperation of teaching a high school vigilante and, in turn, breaking just about every single school rule there ever is. “I’ll cover for you.”
“Please tell Ms. Warren I’m sorry about missing her test next period and that I promise I’ll—”
“Peter,” Mr. Harrington says. “I’ll handle the academics. You go save the world.”
also known as: sometimes a family is eight high school decathlon team members, their teacher, and Spider-Man.

After everything is over with Vecna, Eddie Munson notices the experience left him with an unexpected mark. A soulmate tattoo. Something about the experience had changed him enough that he now has a perfect match. And well, whoever the universe decided was best represented by a baseball bat filled with nails was probably a good guy to have around in a world where the things that go bump in the night turn out to be real.

Summary
Aithusa might have been no bigger than a house cat but she was still a dragon. That meant wings, claws, and her own personal hoard, which in Aithusa’s case included soft pillows, fluffy socks, and much to Merlin’s chagrin, stolen pants. When Merlin found out that his winged ward had stolen a rather considerable pile of clothing for her hoard, he thought that it would be the end of any kind of friendship with his neighbor. But when Merlin met the victim of Aithusa’s burglary, he was pleasantly surprised to find Arthur, a man who had never in his life seen a dragon let alone a burglarizing one, and Cavall, a curious German Shepherd puppy who was quick to befriend the little white dragon. From there, it was only the beginning.

Summary
All these years he’d wondered, that little childish part of him that loved his mother’s stories, what his soulmate was going to be like. Even as his father made sure he knew there were more important things he had to accomplish, told him over and over that he’d be better off without a soulmate at all – to the point where Tony had wondered if maybe he’d be one of those people whose soulmate had died young - he’d secretly hoped and wondered if he’d be one of the lucky ones.
And now he knew.
His father had been right all along.
Tony had two soulmates, who already knew each other.
He decided then and there that he was never, ever going to tell them he existed.
And then he woke up in a cave in Afghanistan.

Summary
Peter wasn’t going to let May pay the rent all on her own. Not when there was two of them, not when being Spider-Man made everything that much harder.
And if that meant washing scratched up dishes and scrubbing old blood from the tile grout at Sister Margaret’s School for Wayward Girls, then so be it.
But then one night, his skin turned blue.
(If only his problems didn’t multiply from there.)

She was meant to be the price for peace; her life in exchange for the mysterious Dragon Master's mercy.
Her captor wasn't supposed to be a ghost from her past, and she wasn't supposed to become his ally...or his lover. And when news spreads of a blonde-haired girl at the Dragon Master's side, there will be repercussions for dragons and Vikings alike.

Hiccup didn't see the point in stopping Astrid as she ran off towards his village—towards his father—with his most desperately protected secret. He was leaving anyway. A coming-of-age tale. Deviates from movie. Borderline bromantic-comedy.

Abandon Hope Who Enters Here (everyone who enters here) by JaggedEmeraldsOfGold

Summary
Eret had spoken about the mindless cruelty of Drago’s base and soldiers, but there’s nothing like seeing it in front of her to make it really, really sink in. She’d wanted to empathize, but she doesn’t think she really understood.
She does now.
Astrid leans her head back until it hits the wall behind her, and blinks up at the ceiling.
It’s going to be a long three days.
Or: Instead of facing the Monstrous Nightmare in the Kill Ring, Hiccup packs up and leaves Berk on Toothless, defeating the Red Death on his own as he goes. Six years later, Hiccup has royally fucked up– Hiccup has severely underestimated Drago, and now Hiccup is cramped, tired, hungry, without his prosthetic, and he really, really, really misses Toothless.
Imagine his surprise (read: complete and utter dread) when he wakes up one day to see absolutely none other than Astrid Hofferson, Snotlout Jorgenson, Fishlegs Ingerman, and Ruffnut and Tuffnut Thorston sitting in the cell across from him.

Summary
"Where was she from?" Luke asked. "To have soft hands."
Beru frowned, "you know." She considered it, "she never said for sure, but she talked about Coruscant once. So she must have been from some rich, core world."
"What was her name?" Luke asked like it was the first time he had heard the story of when Mother and Father came home and Grandma died.
"Padme."

Summary
The reaction in the dressing room is about what he was expecting. A few back-slaps and congratulations. A side-eye from Isaac, which he'll need to deal with later. Most of them are avoiding eye contact, probably just because they're scared of saying the wrong thing, but there's no telling for sure. All in all, it's not the most fun Colin's ever had in his life, but it's not that bad. Could have been worse.
Then Roy Kent kicks in the door and announces, "I've had sex with men and I fucking liked it, no regrets, and if anyone's got shit to say they can say it to me and not to anyone else. Is that fucking clear?"
