    Summary

    Jack Marston has always seen himself as a liar, but maybe he has been a lover in disguise.

     

    He should’ve known the law would come eventually. You don’t kill the former Chief of the Bureau of Investigation and expect to ride off forever. Sooner or later, the past catches up wearing a badge and holding a gun.

    Clutching his bleeding side, Jack's only wish is to hug his parents one last time.

    Hell, it turns out, looks an awful lot like 1899.

    OR: Jack Marston time travels to the events of RDR2.

    Summary

    "He's just like-"
    “Like you were, when you first came here?” Xavier’s gaze was far too piercing. It sliced Logan to the bone, and he could feel his skin prickle where phantom blades cut through it.
    “Exactly,” Logan growled, refusing to let Xavier see just how much that bothered him. “That’s why the kid’s dangerous.”
    “That’s why he needs help,” Xavier pressed gently, as if he was chiding Logan for his hostility. “And that is why you are the best equipped to help him.”
    __________________________
    In which Logan accidentally volunteers to help babysit the latest addition to the Xavier Institute, a strange new student that was quite literally left on their doorstep. However, this student isn't quite a "student" at all; it is a weapon left without a handler. Unfortunately, the new mutant now thinks Logan is his handler. Even more unfortunately, Logan knows more about this situation than he would like to.

    AKA an AU that embellishes on the fact that Kurt was being used as a weapon by Stryker at the beginning of X2, turning the situation into a recovery scenario that ends up helping both Kurt and Logan overcome their Weapon X conditioning.

    Summary

    “Oh, I can never sleep.” Answered Peter casually with a shrug.

    Erik nodded. “I know the feeling.” He said, his voice much softer, a dark look coming over his face.

    “No, I uh, I literally never sleep.” Peter clarified, and like an idiot, he followed his response up with some nervous laughter.

    OR:

    Peter can't sleep and that sometimes leads to unintended consequences.

    Summary

    “Oh yeah, hmmm, I'll put that on the to-do list once Batman forges all the paperwork for him and stuff,” Billy says, making a mental note to himself. Then he remembers what he should actually be prioritizing at the moment and immediately turns his full attention to Superboy with an encouraging smile. “Um! So, anyway! Hi, I'm Captain Marvel, it's nice to meet you, Superboy. What's your name? Nobody in the League knew when I asked. I mean, if that's not rude, I don't know if you want Kid Flash and his parents to know it or if you're even ready to tell me yet, sorry, maybe I shouldn't actually have asked.”

    “. . . uh,” Superboy says, looking even more bemused. “It’s Superboy.”

    “. . . oh, okay, so we're just starting totally from scratch here, huh,” Billy realizes, repressing a little wince.

    “Very much so, yes,” Mrs. West says, looking resigned.

    Summary

    For Freminet, taking the brunt of what he thought was an acid attack aimed towards Spina di Rosula's boss was nothing more than a split second decision. He wouldn't call himself a hero by any stretch of the imagination, and he wouldn't say he led his life with noble and virtuous intentions either...

    ...but when the urge to help someone comes to him, he ponders little over it. That's just what a good person would do, and Freminet desperately wants to be a good.

    (Still, maybe he should have paid more attention to just what was being splashed.)

    OR

    Freminet dissolves into water. That really should have been the end of it, but it seems like the ocean wasn't keen on letting him go yet.

    (HydroDragonHatchling!Freminet)
