Summary
“No blowjob,” Ricky says, impressed by how firm her voice is. “Not in a hundred million years, you asshole. Put your dick away!” She yells, when he stares at her dumbly. “Jesus,” she says, getting a last glance, “I’m not even sure what the point would be. I’d probably bite it in half thinking it’s a toothpick.”
“You are so mean,” Chad says, sounding almost awed.

Summary
“I appreciate your help, Benji,” Ethan said, painfully sincere, “I couldn’t do all this by myself.”
“Sure you could,” Benji replied, more bitterly than he meant to, but he didn’t let go of Ethan’s hand.
“Maybe,” Ethan said, “but I don’t want to.”

“All I ever wanted,” she says finally, “is to go fishing with you.”
THIS is the vision. Yes!! They just like to hang out!!
Note: this author is a Sam/Jack maestro. A few brilliant AUs including a post-Shades of Grey masterclass and…the Road Trip One.

The Nightwing Protocol by PurpleSoot

Summary
In a universe that falls somewhere in between Teen Titans and Young Justice, Robin was fourteen years old on the day he was killed in action, caught in a clever trap laid by the world’s most dangerous mercenary assassin.
Deathstroke’s Apprentice was fifteen on the day he finally surrendered to the Justice League, with blood on his hands and scars that will never heal.
Dick Grayson is seventeen on the day he chooses to face Slade Wilson again.
Some things you lose and can’t ever find again. Some things you drop and leave behind. Some things you just have to learn how to carry with you.
(They’ll call that the Nightwing Protocol, if he survives.)

AHHHHHH!!!!
Probably the best Renegade fic I’ve ever read (and I’ve read a lot). One of the best Dick Grayson fics in general, honestly. A long, rough ride, worth every single minute.
Note: reminds me of A Howling in the Factory Yard by synecdochic, one of the truly great SG-1 AUs

Summary
“Come back this summer,” Casey told him.
“That’s not up to me,” Danny said.
It wasn’t up to Casey, either, but he’d told his boss at the Tribune that the internship had to go to Danny again. Had to. Not because they were friends, but because Danny’s work was that promising. He’d been helping Casey fix up pieces since he left last summer - he would listen to Casey go on for paragraph after paragraph over the phone, or read faxed first drafts and fax them back with scribbled edits and suggestions. He could make anything Casey wrote better in some indefinable way. Casey was putting out his best work with his readership in mind.

So good. This author has a consistent (see: other sports night fics, butchlander trilogy) and nearly unmatched talent for the unspoken. Hard to describe, easy to appreciate.

Summary
Marvel: "So, like, Sokovia is basically Serbia, but also it's definitely not Serbia, but also it is sort of Serbia. It's Serbia-adjacent. Serbia-esque."
Me: "Fine, but I'm going to hold you to that."

Another triumph for the linguistics nerds, and another shining example of a Marvel fic writer doing much more interesting things than Marvel ever could.
