Summary
“Well,” Karl Heisenberg drawled as he stepped out of the shadows of the cave. “Someone’s finally decided to play, huh?”
Ethan can’t remember the feeling in his limbs as Heisenberg’s eyes flashed gold in the darkness.
“Why don’t we do this again, Papa?”
His breath locked itself in his chest as Heisenberg leaned forward, lips pulled up in a vicious grin. Canines glinted in the dim light.
"You and me, Ethan."
Ethan's got a second chance, things are never what they seem and the rabbit hole's deeper than he realized. To keep Rosie safe, some people have to die and a few debts have to be paid. Heisenberg's along just for this head-first ride into hell.

Summary
It's Halloween, there's a party and Keith's sure that Lance's version of a cocktail drink was probably lethal, and not to mention: the inevitable Spin the Bottle.
(There's only one person Keith is looking forward to kissing - and hopefully, Shiro feels the same.)

Summary
Years after the Terran-Galran War, Keith - now a Senior Blade - reunites with an old ally during a joint operation between the Blade of Marmora and the ATLAS Initiative. It has been a decade since Keith last saw Takashi Shirogane - the man he had loved and lost - who now leads as Admiral of the Fleet. Keith was content to finish the mission as soon as possible and returning to his self-imposed exile but things are never easy.
What had been a simple supply drop mission for refugees on a battle-ravaged fringe planet leads to a plot intent on destabilizing both parties, and reigniting the engines of war.

Summary
Nobody knew what caused Takashi Shirogane, known publicly as 'Shiro', to slaughter six other people in October, 2018. Almost a year to the month of the incident, an interview - who will remain unnamed - decided to get his side of the story. They weren't prepared for what he was about to tell.
Notes from the interviewer: This is not for the faint of heart.

Keith and Shiro, life penned down in ball-point ink on cheap paper. Summer storms, spring rain and sunflower fields under a clear blue sky. Poets from the fifties, petit-fours and just a lot of kisses in between.

I: On the Far Side of Our Doom by NoPlace35

Summary
Eivor was cold. He was falling. Pain wrapped tight around his neck. Something filled his mouth, hot and metallic. Beside him, Basim was choking, a hand pressed against his chest. Blood spilled past his fingers. Eivor tried to reach for him, to hold him, but his body wouldn’t move. He couldn’t move, he couldn’t breathe-
One minute Eivor is in a cold cave in Norway, Basim’s blade at his neck, the next, he’s waking up in Kjotve’s clutches, three years earlier. This time, he knows Basim’s treachery, Sigurd’s hubris. The threads of fate are woven long before his birth, but what happens when one, tiny snag unravels the tapestry? The Nornir send him back, armed with foreknowledge, to fix their mistakes.
He just hopes Basim isn't beyond saving.
On hiatus until I finish my PhD

Summary
It's not entirely unexpected when nobody responds to Red Robin's emergency beacon. He knew he was expendable. He stopped being a real part of the family a long time ago. But he'd still hoped. That's why when Batman showed up and promised him that He'd be okay, he believed him. But it doesn't take long to realize that this Batman isn't his. Now, after traveling back with this new Batman, Tim has to learn how to live in a universe that cares.
TLDR: Tim gets rescued by Bruce from the YJ universe and he isn't used to people caring about his existence.
This is a TimKon fic but I also have no self control so a lot of background relationships.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.
