Summary
"You'll scare away my customers, skulking about looking like that," said Mrs. Sandwich, head poking out of her shop. It was pouring outside, and fucking freezing at that.
Crowley lay crouched on the front step of the bookshop, head leaned back against the door, arms wrapped around his knees. His hair was greasy and unkempt, and his previously tailored suit hung around his shoulders, soaking wet.
OR
Mrs Sandwich and Crowley have a conversation.

Summary
“Potter, Harry.”
There was a moment of silence before the Hall burst into noise, everyone whispering something or another. Blaise and Ron nudged him forwards, and he stepped up to the hat like he was walking to his death.
He would know. He had experience in that department.
He scooched onto the chair, wincing when it squeaked, and took a deep breath in.
The hat slid over his head.
“Mr. Potter, I’ve been waiting for you for some time-”
A pause.
“You have been here before.”
OR
Harry Potter was looking forward to a world without Voldemort in it; or at least a world with a chance of defeating him, but when he's unceremoniously thrown back in time by forces beyond his understanding, he's sure as hell not going to let this second chance go to waste.

Summary
He remembers watching Hero News broadcasts when he was a kid. He would sit on his bed, sinking into the mattress and pressing a pillow to his chest. His mother didn't understand why he wasn't frightened to see the rubble of fallen buildings, to hear the witness accounts of the scene and watch villains rampage through the city. But the answer was simple; he knew that a hero would be there to save the day. And he knew that when he grew up, he would be there to save others' days; that was what heroes did, after all.
And he is a hero now. He’s Deku.
But he still doesn't know how to save people.
OR
Izuku stays up late to think.
Aizawa joins him.

Summary
The air around him was suffocating.
Tiny particles of dust floated past him, either remnants of the fight they’d just bombed, or the flesh of the fallen - the price of their failure for all to see.
He shifted slightly, and he winced as the blade in his abdomen moved with him. The nanoparticles sealing up his wound weren’t made to last for long periods of time - they were only meant to stave off death until he could get to a hospital, or a half-decent first aid kit. He could only hope that one of the ships had medical supplies on board.
He tried to stand, and tripped, landing on his side which only served to aggravate his wound further. He lay there for a second, panting, then took a deep breath, and went to stand up again.
“He did it.”
OR
Tony Stark would do absolutely anything to get Peter back. (Including, but not limited to time travel.)
(Was that JARVIS?)

Summary
Death moved closer, their footsteps echoing eerily throughout the chamber. They leaned in and reached out, their bony cold hands grasping his chin and tracing over the edges of his features, hardened by years of war.
“I find myself liking you, Harry Potter.”
OR
Harry Potter sits on a bench in King's Cross Station, and he chooses life. It turns out that he chose a lot more life than he was expecting.
His first goal? Defeating Voldemort with no causalities. After that? Well. That's up in the air.

Summary
'You feel nothing! It must not even compute for you! You never loved her!'
He regrets the words the moment they come out of his mouth. But that other, older Spock said that he needed to get command of the ship, and to do so, must get his younger counterpart to acknowledge his emotions. Spock is not the first Vulcan Jim has had dealings with, and he can think of few things that would get T’pri as riled up as quickly as insinuating that she doesn’t love him.
He gambles that Spock is the same about his mother, and it pays off.
(Or, the one where Jim has a Vulcan daughter, and it leads to all sorts of emotions.)
update: now with a chapter two from Spock’s perspective!

[What does hand flex mean, question?] Rocky asks from where we're huddled together on the floor, watching the 2005 adaption of Pride & Prejudice.
"It's uh—" I hit pause, search for the right word. "Have we had yearning in the vocab yet?"

Summary
“Your parents have been grooming you to take over the company, correct? You’ve been working closely alongside them, alongside their best scientists and technicians. I’m sure you’ve learned a fair deal. We could use that expertise at Stark Industries.”
“Essentially,” Parker says, “you want to pay me to reveal my parents’ company secrets.”
“Yes,” Tony says, cheerfully. “Thank you for catching on so quickly.”
—
Tony’s week just turned a lot more promising: Rich kid Peter Parker has apparently dropped out of college and provoked the ire of his parents. A delicious scandal for the tabloids. And an opportunity too good to waste, even if it means putting up with a snooty, preppy college kid as his new intern.- Language:

Summary
Aizawa Shouta has been turned into a cat (wonderful). He still has classes to teach (unfortunate). As he tries to find someone who can help get un-turned into a cat, he runs into a familiar Villain, who decides the stray cat he found in a thunderstorm would make a wonderful pet for the League of Villains (really terrible). He maybe, possibly, becomes attached to the League of Villains (concerning). Now he has to figure out how to help them heal and be happy, and it may involve rescuing a little girl from the yakuza and permanently dealing with the boogieman of the underground (honestly, mostly just exhausting).
