    Summary

    After locking up, the question bubbles out of Benson’s chest like a belch, bleach flavored. The store key’s still in the lock and for once the exhaustion in his bones has beaten out the shrieking air raid sirens that've been howling in Benson's skull since his childhood. So Benson just does, no forethought or deeper examination involved. Allows himself the mercy of not looking too closely at why he’d ever think getting Bradley liquor loose and pliable would end up well for either of them.

    “You wanna go get a beer?” A pause, the store key halfway turned into the locking position. He flicks it over the rest of the way to avoid having to go back inside and rearm the security system. “You old enough to even fuckin’ drink?”

    Summary

    Victims of Circumstance is the second of three connected series:

    1) Broken Glass
    2) Any Other Night
    3) Victims of Circumstance

    These series represent a Mohinder/Sylar-centric departure into AU beginning with the end of season 1. Victims of Circumstance roughly follows the sequence of events given in season 2, but keeping in line with BG and AON's events.

    Summary

    He might be a child in age but he wasn’t one in the eyes of the Atreides - and even less, in those of the Bene Gesserit. His mother had created him for that purpose and, Paul was starting to think, with bitterness - for that purpose alone.

    Summary

    Chicago. A neon whirl of discos and back alley drug deals. Run by a man no one can seem to get close to. Holden Ford is the junior agent assigned to go undercover in the seedy counterculture that takes place in the back of Chi-town clubs. Holden spends the majority of his days as the get-away car until his team receives intel that perhaps he's more to Bill Tench's taste. Holden's single-minded focus seems to do him a disservice until Tench shows him exactly how interested he really is. Holden can glean information from Chicago's up-and-coming crime boss and gain experience at the same time, win-win. However, Tench has more bark to his bite than Holden could have anticipated.

    Summary

    “I ain’t chasing after you again!” Daryl called from the porch, barely visible now in the fading light.

     

    “Almost doesn’t seem worth it then,” Jesus called back, cheerfully, and performed a little twirl in the mud.

     

    “You catch cold and you can get yourself back to Hilltop!” Daryl yelled after him, and Jesus responded by raising his middle finger in the air, illuminated with the beam of his flashlight, not bothering to slow down or look back.

    --

    A rewrite of the second half of season 6, and seasons 7 and 8 with all the violence of canon, a little less main character death, and a touch more romance.

    Summary

    What if Jesus had ended up at Woodbury instead of the Hilltop? What if he met the group at the prison in season 3?

    __

    Paul rounded the corner to the row of cells leading to the one he’d been locked in, only to find Daryl there, in the middle of the walkway, staring at the spot Paul was supposed to be. Paul stopped and took a bite out of the cookie in his hand. It was sweet and horribly stale. Hard as a rock, it crunched loudly when it broke under the force of his teeth.

    Daryl’s head whipped around and their eyes locked. Paul watched in fascination as Daryl’s expression slipped quickly from surprise to anger, his face flushing red all the way down his neck. Paul took another almost painful bite of the cookie, crunching noisily while he chewed.

    “The hell’re you doin’?”

    “You didn’t leave me any food. I was hungry,” Paul said, raising what remained of the cookie in explanation. “I was coming back like a good prisoner.”

    “Good prisoners don’t go walkin’ around the prison stealin’ shit.”

    Paul hummed in thought. “I suppose it depends on how you define a good prisoner, doesn’t it?”

    Summary

    Once was a mistake. Twice was a pattern. Three times would make him a murderer.

    Peter had made a number of mistakes in his life. Terrible, tragic mistakes, and all of them started and ended with Spider-Man. So he hung up the mantle and for five years, tried to think of anything but the gaping, Spider-Man-shaped hole in his life.

    For five years, alone in the worst of ways, he tried to exist only as Peter Parker.

    For five years, Peter Parker told himself that New York was better off without the Webbed Menace™️.

    And it worked! Peter may have been alone, but he wasn’t lonely. He wasn’t haunted by his failures. He was still helping people - doing Aunt May proud. He’d moved on. He was doing Fine.

    Until a failed kidnapping, a leather-clad mercenary, and a woman on the hunt for her long-lost brother drag Peter back into the familiar world of vigilante justice. And this time, Peter doubted the superhero life would let him go.

    Summary

    (Is being rewritten as Civilians and this fic will be deleted soon)

     

    'ᴄᴀᴜꜱᴇ ɪɴ ᴍʏ ʜᴇᴀᴅ
    ɪɴ ᴍʏ ʜᴇᴀᴅ, ɪ ᴅᴏ ᴇᴠᴇʀʏᴛʜɪɴɢ ʀɪɢʜᴛ

    Daryl lost his daughter two years before the world ended. But the prison fell and he ended up alone, falling in with Joe's tangle of awful men and trying to separate himself from his losses before their path merged with another's.

    His daughter. Alive and alone, stuck facing down cruel men.

    ("Claimed," Daryl spat the word out like it was a foul thing, cutting through the audience to grab her by the wrist.)

    Summary

    “Don’t worry,” Wade tells him. Summer in the city is blissful, but none of that elation is displayed in the dismal gray sky or the frantic traffic below them. “I’m sure that one day, somebody’ll come to punish me for all the things I’ve done in my life. I just don’t recognize anybody who can.”

    Peter reaches forward. Wraps his fingers around his arm. Holds him to hold him. “But I don’t want your punishment.”

    He wants his health. He wants his happiness. He wants him.

    “I want your recovery. And I don’t-” His grip tightens. “I don’t know how to help you.”

    Wade takes his hand and presses it against his heart.

    “This,” He admits, a smile ghosting across his lips. “This is how.”

    After Doctor Strange’s spell and month after month of starved depression, the last thing Peter needs is Deadpool settling down in Queens with a beyond-the-grave mission from Tony Stark to “find and protect the kid”. Hoping to distract him from finding his identity, he develops an alliance with the mercenary. Then a friendship. Then a crush. With lines getting crossed and connections growing deeper, by the time Peter realizes he's fallen in love, it's far too late to back out.

    Summary

    Daryl knocked loudly, barely resisting the urge to shout. His blood was surging uncomfortably through his veins even after hours in the car. Two kids passed behind him, walking towards the communal shower room. They were talking in low voices about the sickness that was spreading on the East coast. It was all over the news by now.

    Daryl clenched his eyes shut, trying to focus. Trying not to see the limping, silver-haired human monsters he and Rick had had to kill that morning.

    He wasn’t abandoning his post. He wasn’t. He’d get back to the station, back to Atlanta, as soon as he knew Paul was safe.

    Summary

    Also available in trans Billy flavour because that’s my personal trans agenda.

    Before, they were only as close as Billy let anyone get, but lately the distance between them has been shrinking. He’s not the kind of guy who likes to talk about himself. Mostly he listens, prods, collects, but never offers. He learned young that when you’ve got a brain like he does you can’t afford to tell people what you’re thinking or how you really feel. Stu isn’t one of those people though, Stu has to keep his thoughts secret too and now this is theirs to keep, between them.
     
    This is mostly only going to be in cannon with the first movie (the movie 3 retcon is not for me), but may also diverge in some places, especially when we get to the events closer to the end of the first movie. More specific tags and warnings will be in the end of chapter notes.

    Summary

    They met in a funeral home.

    "A car crash.

    Wednesday rolled her eyes when her mother had told her, through gratuitous tears, that her father was dead.

    Yeah, right. Wednesday's father was dead, and her favorite color was yellow. The Addams don't get taken out by something as mundane as a car crash."

    Summary

    She had won. So, why did Wednesday feel so empty? Why does it feel like she had lost? She expected the ache of Tyler's betrayal to last longer. She expected the pain of her wounds, physical and mental, to linger. But all she felt was numb and cold. All of it seemingly locked away in a box, somewhere deep inside of herself, that she couldn't access.
