Summary
‘John Winchester knelt before his four-year old son, heart pounding. "Dean, where's your brother? Where's Sammy?" He asked desperately, grasping the scorched blue baby blanket in his hand as his house burned down behind him. "Who's Sammy?" The tearful child replied in confusion. Gabriel watched, invisible to them, the sleeping infant safe in his arms...’
Dean Winchester is a hell of a hunter, but everyone knows he's a little standoffish, a little cold. Until the night a young, shaggy-haired stranger saves him from a demon attack, leaving behind nothing but an alias, a funny looking blade, and a lot of questions.
Sam knows the only way to save the people he loves is to stay far away from them. He knows in the other timeline he ruined everything. This new life that Gabriel created is so much better for everyone. Even if it means he can never be Sam Winchester, can never be Dean's brother.
As events and memories start to echo across to the new timeline, Sam has to face who he really is and Dean has to choose who he becomes.
Exploring dropped plotlines, saving under-utilized characters, and all the chick flick moments.

Summary
When Ichigo coughed, he felt the familiar taste of iron slip from his lips. He inwardly cursed, both at his injuries and at the weak voices he couldn't make out. He shouldn’t have let his guard down, just because Ginjo and Xcution was dealt with. The Dangai was always dangerous. He shouldn’t have forgotten that. A brush of reiatsu and something moved in his vision- gray and purple. Ichigo pried his eyes open, catching a glimpse of a familiar face.
“Jii-san.”
Yamamoto Genryuusai placed a gentle hand on his face and Ichigo leaned into it, allowing the darkness to overtake his vision.

Summary
***
"..and there's a big part of me that wishes I never met you. I preferred the emptiness in me when I didn't know it was there." - Beau Taplin.
It started with Bruce ending up on a roof in the middle of the night.
Which would have been fine, of course, if he wasn't in an impossibly heavy suit, and if a man named Nightwing wasn't coming to possibly end his life.
Growing up was hard enough without having to do it twice.
●Or●
Gotham!Bruce Wayne is de-aged into his twelve year old self and finds that maybe it's not so terrible to love after loss.

Summary
The Bats were dead and Dick was the only one left alive. He had nothing left for him so why shouldn’t he join them?
Waking up back in time was not the plan but Dick wasn’t complaining. He finally has his family back and he will not lose them again.
Robin has always been able to do what Batman couldn’t. It was okay that Bruce won’t kill. Dick wouldn’t ask him to compromise his morals.
But he had no such restrictions. He doesn’t mind killing, getting his hands dirty, and being a monster if it means his family is alive.
.
Or a Dark Dick Grayson who is just a tad overprotective of his family. Just a tad.

Thirty-nine-year-old Buggy wakes up in his teenage body at the worst possible moment - mid-argument with Shanks in Loguetown. Before he can process the time travel, he collapses and wakes to a diagnosis that defies logic. He's eight weeks pregnant.
Now Buggy faces an impossible choice - recreate the future he knows, or let this unexpected pregnancy change everything. Between Shanks' constant care and his own confusing emotions, the path forward isn't nearly as clear as it should be. Maybe some mistakes don't have to repeat themselves.
Or: Buggy's Guide to: (1) Time travel (2) Male pregnancy and (3) Not falling for your best friend (2 out of 3 ain't bad).

Summary
He sips quietly on his vanilla milkshake instead of tutting at the navy haired boy.
Man.
Aomine’s a man now.
Kuroko lies back on his chair to ogle at Aomine freely. He sees the way Aomine’s eyes have matured from their darker shade of navy and clearing into a softer shade, the way the veins twirling around his hands stretch at the slightest movement of his fingers, the way his collarbone seeps out under his collared dress shirt. It all makes Kuroko’s head spin.
Then, to prove the fact that his sole reason for existing is to cause Kuroko’s migraines, he freezes and blows out from his teeth. “Brain freeze!”
He’s a man-child.
AKA that soulmate, reincarnation AU nobody asked for.
