Summary
Peter is fine, anyways. His boss might fire him soon, the Avengers might arrest him soon, the principal might expel him soon, but none of it has happened yet. And his dad—
“You didn’t get my coffee,” his dad says, halfway through his burrito. He has been in a state of low, simmering irritation all evening, and apparently this is how long it took for him to find a reason to blame Peter for it.
“You didn’t tell me to get coffee.”
“Do you have eyes?”
“Yes,” Peter says. “I have eyes.”
“So you could have checked if we needed coffee without me telling you every little thing, Jesus Christ.”

Peter just wants to make it to sixteen so he can escape this life and strike out on his own. He has a plan and nothing will ruin it.
Not even Tony Stark quite literally crashing into his life.Bookmarked by ReadingForDopamine

Summary
When Damian was a child, for a time he had an older omega brother named Jason. Jason was kind, and gentle, but simple. He would never hurt or betray Damian. When Jason died, there was no funeral.
Years later, when Damian moves in with his father, he sees a photo of Jason. Dozens of them, in fact. How could he ever tell his father that his older son came back to life, but died again before he ever knew he was back? Instead, he holds this failure close to his chest, impacting his ability to connect with his father and his brothers.
And then Jason shows back up, alive and well, and Damian is left with questions only his mother can answer.

Summary
The flutter of hope that she had left unscathed died quickly upon hearing them, even more so after cataloguing the state of the girl. In pieces is the only apt way to describe it.
But whatever string of hope that could’ve been left dwindling in his soul was ceremoniously ripped out when the desperation in Ellie's eyes and gasps for air from her mouth left him looking at the bloody, Jagged, fleshy hole in her mouth where her tongue was supposed to be.
Or: When Ellie gets captured by David’s group, they change her in a way Joel can’t fix, no matter how hard he tries.

“I… am not being challenged in the right ways here,” Harley says slowly, carefully. He’s not really lying, this way. He is being fucking challenged, alright, but not by school. Not by the things that should challenge him.
“Then move here,” Tony says, and Harley’s heart drops straight into his feet.

Summary
“Well howdy Ellie, how can we help you?” Tommy drawls with a welcoming smirk.
“I know it's a long shot, and you're busy–busy people but I wanted to ask if I could– I.” God she's bad at this.
Fuck it.
She strides over to the more engaged Miller with her file, “here these - these are my most recent times from the Eastern Massachusetts District Championships, and there's others. I placed in all my events in the Boston Winter Classic, and every YMCA championship in the last year.” she harbours a deep breath
“I'm good, please, Just let me get in the pool and I’ll show you.”

Ellie is an elite swimmer and Joel is her coach; who will do anything to help her get to nationals, and then probably anything she ever asks of him, because my man is father shaped in every universe.(TLOU elite swimming AU nobody but the voices in my brain asked for).

Summary
“I think I - fucked up my ankle.” She points to her left foot. “When I fell.”
Her remorse lies thick and rank between them. Joel imagines he can see it rotting there, in between shafts of honeyed sunlight. Shame, he thinks, fits her so poorly. He’s reminded of Kansas City, of her sitting her with her back to the newspaper lined window, chin on her knees, a single tear on her cheek as she tells him:
It wasn’t my first time.
Little girls, he thinks, have no business carrying that sort of regret. He has no business reading into it this way - thinking about all the tender spots Ellie’s got lying in ruin inside of her, all of the ways this world has failed her. All of the ways he’s failed her, all of the ways he might still. She’s only a job, he tells himself sternly. She’s cargo.
*
Joel patches Ellie up again, and again, and again.

Summary
And she’s always had her moments of quiet. After Sam and Henry especially, it took days for her to tell him a pun or ask him a question, days of only speaking when necessary. Hell, even when she’s her normal self, he can tell she’s tired because she goes quiet.
This is different. More. Terrifying. But he’s not surprised, exactly.
Or: Sometimes Ellie doesn't talk.

Summary
She's whiter than sin and beat to hell, blood crusted up under her nose and around her mouth when he gently lifts the poorly stitched together sack up and away from her face with hands that don't feel like his own.
All of maybe seven or eight, if he had to guess, kids somehow looking both younger and older than they're meant to these days.
She looks like a baby to him, her features all soft despite being so damn thin.
With an odd sense off detachment, he rolls up her sleeves and checks both arms before moving onto her legs in search of any sign that's she's been infected, but the tell-tale climb of Cordyceps is nowhere to be found, no bite mark to mock him. Not on her back that's a swirl of blackened bruising and bumpy spine or on the hollow of her stomach that's just as tender and hard to look at, the cut of her ribs striking.
There ain't a thing on her outside of a list of hurts that's a mile long and etched into her skin.

Summary
Sometimes, Ellie got the strange sensation of being in a hotel, somewhere completely impermanent and impersonal. It was all too easy to picture the others leaving and simply never coming back, Ellie waiting in the empty space like a sad little foster kitten, ridden with fleas and whining at her food bowl. Then some new group would arrive and inform her it was theirs now, and that would be that. This place she called home could be rid of any trace of her in a matter of hours.
(Or: Ellie is a drug dealer. Joel is a dad. Bonding ensues.)

Summary
Ellie was cold.
They’d given her an ugly gray sweater to wear over her hospital gown, the plasticky-fabric dress only going down to her mid thighs.
It didn’t really help.
The walls of the waiting room were all white, plane-framed children’s drawings adorning too-much space.
Cold.
The bare skin of her legs were shivering, shaking against the old, plastic chair she was sitting in.
Cold.
Maybe she just wasn’t able to feel warmth anymore.(Back in Jackson after their captivity in Silver Lake, Joel and Ellie struggle to cope with their trauma)

Summary
When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.
Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.
Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!
