Summary
Bucky enters a local yarn store. His reason: Steve. His mission: crafting. His experience: surprisingly good.
This story is almost entirely composed of the never-ending scene wherein Bucky and a yarn store employee discuss how to choose a yarn project and then select yarn. The author is okay with this, perhaps because the author is a knitter. (And crocheter, and sometimes spinner, and sometimes weaver... you get the point.)
Bucky has trauma, but while it's very present here, it isn't going to blow up in his face, and the spectacular employee he's interacting with does their best to help him get through the experience safely and successfully.
"
Somehow, Bruce had directed Bucky to what had to be the only craft store in all of New York City with employees who could handle an uncomfortable, mostly non-verbal ex-assassin. (The Bruce-voice didn’t point out that Bruce himself probably liked the store for the same reasons Bucky did. Bucky already knew that.)

Summary
Seven years after the Kyuubi attack, the Sandaime Hokage’s sudden assassination threw Konoha into chaos, and at the end of the night, two factions arose in its shinobi forces: those who stayed and those who ran. Of those who ran, many were shinobi that the new administration denounced as traitors, deserters, and murderers.
Two years later, a ragged group of children who vanished the night of the Sandaime's assassination, who would have been raised in relative peace but instead grew up running, were recruited to fight a war for the homes they barely remembered.
In which Kakashi is forced to the forefront of yet another war, Itachi is given to maudlin internal monologues, Shisui alternates between coping and dissociating, and Zabuza wonders why he couldn’t have left the honor to the fucking samurai.

Summary
“What do you mean?” Angel questions, his voice coming out sharper than he intends. If Alastor is cowed, he doesn’t show it, humming and shrugging.
“I mean that what happened is no fault of your own, of course,” Alastor replies. “It’s not as if you asked politely to be hypnotized and unwittingly spy on everyone you call a friend, invading the place you thought was your sanctuary.”
After everything settles down at the hotel, Angel and Alastor have a talk about what they both experienced at Vox's hand.

Summary
Sleep had not come easy that night. It didn’t take long before a strange staticky sound began to infiltrate Vaggie’s dreams and wake her up. The noise was coming from the radio on their table.
“-̸̭̩̏̏̋l̵͚̫͓̽o̷̦͊͝v̵͇̈́́e̵̹̗͐̆̐s̸̭̱̥̾̃ ̸͇́̒̽ y̵̘̦͊̌͗o̷̚u li̴͕̰̝̓kȇ̵̐ I do- do- do yo̴̔u̴̅ he̷e̶e̴̓â̸͋r-”
Beside her, Charlie turned over, half awake. “Hmm?”
“-wii̸͇͊̌l̵̟̉ͅḽ̶̺̅̂ ever lo̴ve ÿ̵́o̴̍u̴ m

Charlie jumped out of the bed. “We need to check on Alastor!”
Healing takes time. Final part of the series.

Summary
Angel reached out, moving towards him.
Alastor jumped back, flinching before he could even process where he was.
Angel froze, dropping his hand.
"Fuck," the pornstar mumbled, staring at Alastor with wide, knowing eyes, "fuck. Someone hurt- hurts you, don't they?"
