Summary
“Okay. If you don't like your wish and you don't like mine, if you had a do-over, what would you ask for?” Ray asks, unimpressed, like this is a dare that he doesn't expect Pete to be able to complete.
Pete had spent a lot of time thinking about this after the Walk. It’s near impossible not to, really; you’re given the hardest choice you’ll ever make after the most horrific few days of your life, and you have forever to stew in the consequences of it. Pete has been stewing in it, indeed. “Do you really think you can wish for anything?” he asks. “It shouldn’t have been possible to get that kid an elephant so soon, but—”
“You want a magical wish, then? Like a fucking genie? It’s all hypothetical anyway. Go for it.”
Their feet move in tandem, like soldiers. The horrible ache in Pete’s stomach has gone away. This is the only time it ever goes away: here, in a dream, with Ray. “Well, I’d ask if I could just go on walking with you forever.”
---
If Pete McVries had another chance, he'd choose a different wish. Post-Canon Garraty/McVries Fix-It.

On the record, Johnny would like it to be known that he was not a lightweight, no matter what Ben said.
Off the record, he was feeling a little weird. But he was sure that was nothing. Right?

Summary
Everything happened at the speed of light. One second, she was answering her Biology professors questions on synthetic genome therapy in front of a crowded lecture, and now she was standing in a hospital hallway. The bleach white walls and floors made her stomach flip, everything seemed far too bright and her knees wouldn't stop shaking.
The crash report stated that it was an "instantaneous impact” meaning their parents didn’t have much time to swerve out of the way. Some old truck that was far too old to keep up with the modern roads. Their mother and father were on their way back from a work trip. They were most likely eager to see their children again. Sometimes they’d get home after a two day trip and act like they haven’t seen their kids in years.
However, they had no time to prepare. No final words. No will. No goodbyes. Just, gone.
And now, somehow Sue's life had shifted. Her focus wasn’t school. It wasn't research. Instead, it was Johnny. Her ever so lively thirteen year old brother. A brilliant young boy who was now in her clutches..-.-.-.-.
Basically the beloved Susan Storm stepping into motherhood way earlier than she had planned.

In 1945, Paddy Mayne is involved in the Allied liberation of Bergen-Belsen.

Summary
A creature designed to cut him down at knee: this boy with his burnt-umber eyes and the freckles that cannot possibly be real, down here in the dark; with his sun-peach skin and the rabbit-down flicker of his eyelashes and the way he tilts himself towards Paddy like it is instinct, head down, mouth a long uneven trenchline.
Paddy knows only two things: he is in Death’s domain, and this beautiful, human-hearted ghost is a trick.
Paddy manages to get himself lost in Hell. A spirit with huge spun-silk eyes and strangely familiar hands is there to guide him back out.

Summary
He’d feel it all when he was safe, he’d always assured himself. Yet, Mat had a sneaking suspicion that the day where he was safe enough to exist as more than a hair-trigger soldier was never going to arrive.
OR: The warriors of old have been protecting Mat since before he could talk. He may not have blown the Horn of Valere yet, but they know their own, and they will not leave him to fall before he has the chance to fly. This changes some things and leaves others entirely untouched.
OR, OR: The Heroes of the Horn behave akin to dissociative identity states, because Season 3 is doing things to me.

Summary
"Like I said — public speaking is not my forte." Viktor smiled up at Jayce. "Nor is private speaking. I’ll let you handle the salesmanship. Go…" He flapped his last three fingers again to shoo Jayce away, still not tipping over his champagne. "Use your pretty face to get us some seed funding."
Jayce nearly spilled his drink. "You…you think I’m pretty?"
Viktor rolled his eyes. "Everyone does."
Then he turned and walked away, beelining for a snack-laden waiter like he hadn’t just upended Jayce’s world.
Jayce was still trying to reorient himself when Mrs. Kiramman sidled up to him.
"Jayce." She smiled, polished and practiced. "I'd like you to meet an old business partner of mine. She is deeply interested in you and stands to gain quite a bit by investing in your work."
This was absolutely not what Viktor had meant.
But Jayce wouldn't let his…squeamishness…get in the way of his and Viktor's pursuit of progress. Their aspirations were worth a few bad nights on Jayce's part.
And Viktor never needed to know it wasn't just Jayce's sales pitch making their dreams come true. Jayce would keep the nightmares to himself.

Summary
“You remember my name, but little else.” It’s spoken as a statement for Jayce to confirm, not a question. “Nothing of how we met.”
Jayce edges closer to the barrier.
“No, not - Not technically.” He considers for a moment, and only a moment, what he should reveal. But if the parts of him that remember are insisting he put his faith in Victor, there must be good reason for it.
“I didn’t - don’t, remember you, but I know you. I can feel it.”
“How can you-”
“And I trust you, Viktor. Something tells me I’m allowed to do that.”
-
Jayce wakes up in the Undercity beaten, imprisoned, missing his tie…And his memories. His kidnappers are demanding the formula for Hextech - A powerful energy source Jayce has never even heard of. He knows only one thing for certain, and that’s who he can trust. Even if it’s the man that kidnapped him.

Summary
"I think you’re missing what Curator wanted out of you. You managed to walk out of her museum with something you shouldn’t have, and I suspect hiring you was more about giving you motive not to do that again than anything else.”
Stanley considered this, and concluded: “You’re just mad she dragged you back to work, aren’t you?”
Narrator said, “Curator is paying us both very generously,” and that seemed to be addressed to himself as much as it was to Stanley.
-
If you have super powers, why not don a mask and cause some trouble?
Unfortunately, Stanley robbed the wrong museum, and now he's being put to work in the 'Special Acquisitions' department, stealing objects of great importance or power from private collectors and bringing them back to the safety and security of his new employer's museum.Narrator has been trying to quit this type of work for years now, and yet, here he is. He's here to support and train the reckless new agent, and good god he already needs a raise.
(Despite it all, Mariella is still here.)

Summary
Before the worst night of their lives, it was complicated enough. Kaitlyn wanted to sleep with Ryan, Ryan wouldn’t have minded sleeping with Kaitlyn but was also somewhat intrigued by Dylan, and Dylan was falling a little in love with Ryan. For ten minutes, alone around a firepit, they were definitely thinking about a threesome.
But then the worst night of their lives happened.
Now Kaitlyn is angry, dragging her emotional support Dylan down her path toward mental health, Ryan is fine and doesn’t need anyone, as long as he doesn’t talk to Dylan ever again, and it turns out no one ever really knew what Dylan was thinking in the first place, so maybe nothing’s changed there.

Summary
(The end is never the end. There's too much blood on too many hands and too many unhappy endings. Six years is a long wait for a grieving mother and a damning curse. It's time for more desperate measures. Perhaps resourcing one of the counselors - as she had watched so many do before - will prove benign. Looks like it's time to save the sole survivor.)
Dylan wakes up in a blind panic, kicking out and falling backward off of the log bench he's sitting on. Maybe it's a bit dramatic, but in his defense, he was just being pinned down in the kitchen, about to get his throat torn out by a goddamn werewolf. Sue him for startling.
