Summary
Bucky felt his muscles untense a little in relief. He continued down the alleyway again, this time at a brisker pace. He was preparing himself to see a kid, maybe hurt after he got mugged, or injured after doing something stupid he didn’t want his parents to know about, or beaten up trying to defend himself.
An image of a scrawny Steve floated to the forefront of his mind, but he quickly shoved it to the back again.
All of that being said, nothing could have prepared himself for what he actually saw.
Tucked into the corner of an alleyway, sitting, was New York’s one and only red-and-blue-costumed vigilante, now with a little too much red, as blood was flowing from a wound that he was futilely pressing down on.
Shit.

Summary
"And... why are you in here?"
Spiderman's head tilted seeming to be studying Bucky closely for a long moment before doing a flip to land on the ground and heading casually over to the kitchen as though he owned the place.
"I live here, I have for like two years, better question would be why are you lot here? This is my house after all," Spiderman continued as he foraged through the freezer, collecting two frozen pizzas before hesitating a moment, "Want one?"

Post No Way Home, Peter realises he still has access to Stark's labs because the spell didn't remove "Miniboss". He has long since moved into Tony's untouchable lab when the Thunderbolts move in- Language:

Summary
When Peter gets an invitation from Yelena to a small party at the Watchtower, he expects to find a small party at the Watchtower.

Summary
Prophet Among Heroes
Oracle of Golden Blood
Hero of a time yet to come,
with a destiny snatched away
A loom split in two
The Titan has awakened
Be careful, son of the sea
Guard your heart
Have no fear
Don’t run
The skies already know who you are
——
Percy Jackson was a perfectly normal boy, almost eleven years old; he was a mortal like any other. Maybe he could see and know more than most, maybe he could see the destinies of heroes, but that didn’t make him one… right?(Percy’s arrival at Camp Half-Blood, much earlier than he should have arrived—the sisters are hurriedly weaving a new tapestry, but why is that? Why has the gift of ignorance been taken from him so soon?)

Summary
Waking up in the middle of nowhere, drenched in blood and staring up at the early blue sky was not something Juan had in mind for his Tuesday morning.
The blinding pain that seemed to circulate his body for hours afterwards made it hard to imagine it was all a dream.
Or
Juan's a Chupacabra already, a little joint pain after transformations won’t hurt, right?…right?

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Nightwing (Comics)
02 Jul 2026
Tags
Summary
Dick fucking Grayson sure has a way of derailing all of Jason’s plans, that’s for sure.
He was expecting to find something different. An exhausted Nightwing leading city repair and rescue efforts, clearly overworked. A stressed and worried older brother, concerned about his little brother’s injuries from the big bad Red Hood. Even something related to Jason being the Red Hood, whether it was pissed or confused or whatever. Not–
Not this. Not a bundled up lump of man with unwashed hair and empty eyes lying on the bed in a messy hotel room, talking about having seen Jason before (despite Jason knowing he hasn’t) and implying that Jason is going to take him to die.
OR:
Red Hood comes looking for Nightwing. Jason Todd doesn't like what he finds.

Summary
On the day Perseus Jackson is born, the sea seems to cry with joy. Atlantis glows bright as a tidal wave of emotion crashes over them. It speaks of raw, unadulterated adoration, devotion of a kind not felt in millenia.
On the day Percy Jackson is born, Poseidon holds him in his arms and cries in joy.
—
OR a rewrite of The Lightning Thief featuring a smitten Poseidon, a far more in-human and possibly prophetic Percy, a very confused Annabeth, and a Grover who’s decided to just accept the craziness that accompanies the terror known as Percy Jackson.

Summary
Percy could see more than other people ever since he could remember. The world of Greek gods, heroes and monsters awaited him every night, bleeding into the waking world. He promised himself that he would never speak of his visions, but can he keep this secret when he barely holds himself together, surrounded by strangers?
Or: Clarisse thinks that in all nine years of her life she never met a stranger kid than Percy. It’s alright though, he’s hers now and she will bite off the ankles of whoever dared to mess with him.
Or: Apollo is going to tear out all of his hair if he doesn't find his baby prophet. Now.

I'm not a Prophet by Ihavenothingbettertodo

Summary
Percy isn't a prophet. He may see things that he isn't supposed to see but that's irrelevant. If he just ignores it, it will go away, eventually, hopefully.
Then he sees Grover at his school and starts to panic a little. Later Chiron becomes his teacher. They were here for another demigod who he hasn't noticed. Surely. Because Percy isn't a Prophet and he would never meet the fate of one.
Or
Percy is a prophet and it could make things easier or a lot more complicated.

Summary
A year after the Winter Soldier failed his mission in DC, Bucky Barnes is doing his best to stay under the radar from both Hydra and Steve Rogers. His hope for a peaceful day-to-day life in limbo goes awry, however, when he meets Queens’ newest hero; a pure-hearted kid with a death wish and a ridiculous pair of red and blue pajamas.
The last thing Steve expects when he finally tracks Bucky down is that, not only has the man been living in Queens all this time, right under his nose, but also that, in the two years since they last saw each other, Bucky somehow acquired a kid.
Alternatively: How Peter Parker effectively fucks over Bucky Barnes, and also totally saves him.

Just when Peter thinks his luck couldn't get any worse life has to prove him wrong.
In all honesty he should have probably paid more attention to what Dr. Strange was telling him but he kinda stopped paying attention after ‘I have to send you to another world or we all kinda die’.Meanwhile in Blüdhaven Dick Grayson finds an empty abandoned laboratory, yet he's pretty sure someone was here, not too long ago.

Summary
Cassandra’s fingers reach and pull at his fringe, dropping stray hairs in a stringy waterfall until she’s got his blue streak. And stops. She holds it gently. Almost reverently. Her face is a thunderous fury, as she twists it back and forth between her knuckles
'You’ve had this since you were born?’
‘Yes.’ He whispers.
‘Ever wondered why?’
OR
Cassandra's interest in Varian goes far beyond his linguistic skills.

Consequences of Worthlessness by Алхимик (Bludswing)
Fandoms: Tangled (2010), Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure (Cartoon)
15 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
After their world was shattered by Cassandra's betrayal Eugene, Rapunzel, and Lance return to Corona only to find the kingdom devoid of its usual life. Finding out the Saporians took over the throne certainly wasn't the welcome home they were expecting. It was up to them to once again save the day— or, rather, the kingdom in this case— and put the criminals back in the deepest pits of the dungeon where they belong. The fact that Eugene could barely even recall who the Saporians even were made him confident it would be easy to put a stop to their takeover. It's just one more mess to clean up before they could finally try to settle down to process all the chaos they suffered through in the Dark Kingdom. Of course, things could never be that easy. He really should have known better. Finding out Varian was working with the Separatists made things infuriatingly complicated but it was finding out how they treated the alchemist that sent everything Eugene thought he knew up in flames. No amount of resentment he harbored for Varian could make Eugene stand by and let Varian suffer like this at Andrew's hands. Actually, he was beginning to question if he still had any anger left.
