    Summary

    “No, no, I want an explanation. I’ve seen Scott, y’know. That man is capital F fine. You give me ten minutes alone with him and one of us is coming out pregnant, and lord knows it won’t be me.”

    Wade.”

    “Is it the multiverse thing? The previous Logan? If it is, can we just find a way to swap bodies or something? I’m sorry about the scars, but I’m sure we could rig it to just be temporary, let me have a summer fling or something–”

    “Wade,” Logan snaps, tone low and edged with a snarl, “I said enough.”

    Ohhhhh.” Wade presses a hand to his own mouth, jaw slack with something akin to shock. “Oh, you sly dog, there’s someone else, isn’t there? Come on, you have to tell me now!”

    -OR-

    Surviving the Time Ripper, Logan and Wade don't talk about it. Logan tries to navigate grief while getting to know the X-Men of this universe; Wade's busy trying to win back Vanessa. As per usual, it all goes less than well.

    (Title is from Sugar by Sleep Token!)

    Summary

    “What is it that you see?” Lestat asks him, eyes unsettlingly wide in the mirror. Daniel pretends to consider their forms for a few moments.

    “Two fuck ups who ruined their marriage,” he answers with a straight face. Lestat’s disgusted expression is immensely gratifying.

    Summary

    Daniel is sprawled out across the bed, loose-limbed and lazy, somehow filling all the open space it has to offer and leaving Armand to nestle into the gaps. His cheeks are flushed, blood pooling like it knows what comes next. Maybe it does. Armand was reading about classical conditioning the other day. About dogs who become accustomed to getting food when their handler rings a bell.

    Perhaps Daniel is the dog, Armand’s teeth sharp bells reverberating in his veins. Or perhaps Armand is the dog, Daniel’s blood a song rattling in his ears. He has been a dog before. He runs his tongue along the bow of Daniel’s collarbone, gathers the salt-sweat there and imagines what it tastes like because Daniel does.


    Armand remembers he loved Daniel, once, and that Daniel loved him. Or a version of them did, at least. It isn't his intention to go back to that, but it's not not his intention, either. Such is the prerogative of an immortal: to hold two contradicting desires simultaneously. If nothing else, it passes the time while he waits for this miserable interview to end.

    Summary

    “Ugh.” Jim’s knife withdrew, and their knee lifted from Lucius’ diaphragm. “You’re wet.”

    “Courtesy of everyone’s favourite unhinged pirate captain.”

    “Fucking insane motherfucker’s lost his fucking mind.”

    A dagger slammed into the panneling mere inches from Lucius’ left ear, and he drew a shaky breath. “Oooo-kay, so you’re, like, really upset about how he’s coping with his breakup, and I get that, I do, but would it really make you feel better to kill me?”

    The measured calculation in Jim’s eyes made Lucius regret phrasing it that way.

    “What I’m saying is, wouldn’t you rather save all the murder-y stuff for Blackbeard, hm?”

    ***

    or, Lucius decides to haunt Blackbeard to the point of insanity as revenge, because why kill a guy when you can terrorise his every waking moment?

    Summary

    “Hey. Breathe.”

    Dream does. He inhales through his mouth, and blows the soft air back out. Real air. Living air. It pours down his throat like fresh water, and tastes just like it always has- London air. Human air. The hand on his shoulder loosens.

    “Again,” the voice orders, and he obeys without question.

    His vision is starting to clear now, and he is beginning to adjust to the darkness.

    A face starts to take shape before him. A real face, painfully human.

    “Okay?” Hob asks.

    (The Sandman, but things go a bit differently. A pigeon flies in front of a car several years early. Hob Gadling happens to be in the right place at the right time. The Dreaming doesn't let its master back in, for whatever reason.
    Basically, I rewrite the whole story from the orb escape onwards.

    Wish me luck.)

    Summary

    I would buy back the stars I made in the sky for you, Crowley thinks. I would get a real human job and work however long I'd need to earn enough real human money to bargain with the Almighty for you and your soul. I would give it all to you in pennies and beg you to try to purchase my freedom from hell if it meant I would be enough for you to want me. Name the price and I will find a way to buy your love.

    "Nonsense, angel," Crowley says, grinning. "Consider it my demonic contribution to the ever-increasing crass overcommercialization of this holiday."

    Summary

    Wylan Van Eck is the hunted, runaway son of the most powerful mercher in the city. Jesper Fahey is an addict who's in way over his head. Just when they thought they might have found a new home in each other, a new job, the biggest one the Crows have ever scored, threatens to bring all of their secrets—and their insecurities—to the surface. With the slaughter at King Nikolai’s coronation, the continent is now openly at war, and the Crows find themselves smack in the middle of a world needing saving once again.

    There are a thousand reasons for Jesper and Wylan to walk away, if their damn fool hearts weren’t so stubbornly in love. Can they forge that love into something strong enough to withstand the dangers it faces—or will it be their own choices that cause it to shatter?

    This is a Wesper-centric reimagining of Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, through the lens of the Shadow and Bones TV canon.

    Summary

    First it was her parents. Then Riley, and then Tess. Sam and Henry came next. At fourteen, all Ellie knew was loss. She should be used to it by now- expect it, even. What she didn't expect was to become so fond and attached to the grumpy, emotionally-unavailable smuggler that's spent the last three months protecting her at all cost. Despite her initial doubts, they were in this together now. Or at least they were, until Ellie finds out Joel's plan all along had been to ditch her the very first chance he got.

    Or: Ellie overhears Joel's conversation about leaving her & rather than agreeing to go with Tommy, she takes off to find the Fireflies on her own. But David and his group have other plans for her. Basically episode 6 & Ellie dealing with the aftermath of episode 8 (with some changes & angst).

    Summary

    Steve Harrington could handle many things. He could handle monster-fighting, torture from Russian spies, and traveling to an alternate dimension—time and time again—just because of a group of nerdy teenagers that had somehow managed to wedge their way into Steve's weary heart asked him to. But the one thing he couldn't handle was serving witness to those nerdy teenagers being forced to rebuild themselves every time they inevitably faced trauma far beyond their years.

    And when Dustin Henderson showed up at Hawkins Memorial Hospital with tears in his eyes and words of loss on his tongue, Steve was sure that he could shoulder no more of the heart-wrenching grief on the forefront of everyone's mind.

    But everything changed with a flickering lightbulb and a miracle.

    After a narrow escape from the Upside Down, it's hard to find your footing.

    Or: Steve Harrington deals with his terrible parents, Robin Buckley refuses to leave her best friend to fend for himself, and Eddie Munson simply will not stop lending Steve his clothes for no reason Steve can see.

    (Or: Steve cares too hard and too deeply to not have someone else care the same way about him. Everyone knows this except, apparently, for Steve.)

    Summary

    Eddie finds himself alive, alone, and not quite himself in The Upside Down. After a confusing (and barely communicative) light show in the kitchen, Steve goes back to look for him, only to find that Eddie can’t leave and closing the gates could mean shutting him out of Right Side Up Hawkins forever.

    Or, Eddie has a hivemind problem, and Steve brings snacks and music to The Upside Down until they can figure out a way to save him.

    (Featuring vampire rodents, a rabid Tommy Hagan, and a slow burn romance amidst the battle for Right Side Up Hawkins)

    Summary

    For over six months, after Hawkins and the Upside Down merge, Steve Harrington is plagued by nightmares. Vines choking him, Eddie dying, and a host of other nighttime horrors. It all changes one night in October 1986 when, instead of the Creel House or the trailer park, Steve dreams about a warm spring day at Skull Rock featuring one very familiar metalhead.

    Sure, his subconscious' version of Eddie Munson makes some weird comments about being alive in the Upside Down sometimes, but that's just his brain's way of coping with Eddie's death ... Right?

    Summary

    Eddie is beginning to think that, somewhere in the helter-skelter of surviving the Upside Down, being swarmed by possibly rabid but definitely rancid demobats, and charbroiling Vecna’s slimy ass, he accidentally tripped through the wrong gate and landed in an alternate dimension. Well, a different alternate dimension than the one he was already in.

    Because Steve Harrington is flirting with him.

    Summary

    No one has caught Steve Harrington’s eye in a while, and he’s not going to go looking. And with his tendency to get involved with interdimensional bullshit and the gaggle of teenagers that follows him around, it’s probably for the best. He quickly learns that the universe has other plans for him, and they come in the shape of a goofy, guitar-wielding nerd.

    In which Steve is just trying to live his life but Eddie is essentially hitting him over the head with a very flirtatious hammer.

    Summary

    - DURING AND POST SEASON 4 VOLUME 2 -

    That was when he saw them.
    The two figures were folded over each other on the ground, a ring of dark shapes crumpled and curled around them. Webbed, membranous wings fluttered lifelessly in the wind, lifting at odd angles like plastic bags on the interstate.
    But Steve could barely see them.
    His ears rang, his vision reduced to a greyish tunnel as he recognised the wooly texture of Dustin’s ghillie suit.
    No.
    Steve’s feet tripped beneath him as he staggered down the hill, moving towards them.
    No hero moves, his thoughts washed through his mind in a seasick, rolling fashion. He could already see the dark wash of blood, soaking the ground like ink around them, as he bolted forward.
    I said no hero moves.


    Steve Harrington, ex-lifeguard and babysitter extraordinaire, happens to be blessed with knowledge of first aid. Eddie is the recipient of this aid, and as he recovers he must learn to live with the fact that he owes his life to a prom-king with a 12 step haircare routine. This would be easier if he didn’t find said prom king so uncomfortably attractive.
    And if the world would stop ending for five minutes.
    Geez.

    Summary

    "What’s scarier than saving the world? Figuring out what to do afterwards. I get it,” Eddie turns on his side, one shoulder on the wall, and grips the front of Steve’s shirt. His face is so close Steve can feel the warmth of his breath. “But we’ve got time now. Right, Steve? We bought us all time. Time to figure all our shit out. Isn’t that what matters?”

    OR

    Steve Harrington struggles to find purpose after the Upside Down.

    (But maybe purpose doesn't have to be big. Maybe it's helping Dustin navigate Sophomore year. Maybe it's reminding Robin to send in college admission letters. Maybe it's Eddie Munson. Maybe).
