Summary
Hiccup runs away with Toothless, the village believing he is dead.
Then, years later, there are unconfirmed tales and rumours of a dragon tamer, a Dragon Chief, a Dragon Master. In their darkest hour, Berk comes before the Dragon Chief in desperation for help, and Hiccup cannot refuse. But maintaining the Dragon Chief persona is hard, and people are curious about exactly who is behind the mask. -

Summary
The concept of 'being on leave' involves actually resting, or so they say. If you asked Will, he would say that he didn't know the meaning of the word.
In fairness, it was hard to catch a break when one spent every moment of the day trying to stop one's idiotic family from finding out that the normal human colleagues of his were anything but.
And, preferably, he'd like to walk away from it in one piece.Series

Summary
The stuff that happens between missions, movies, and life-or-death chaos, because when you’re playing host to a team of giant aliens living in your shed, there’s never a dull moment.
Besides, with five heavily armed war-machines watching your six, what could go wrong?
Lots, apparently.Mostly fluff and crack for now, will get angsty eventually. Not yet. Eventually.
Updates every Friday.
AU, with characters and events picked out from the Bay Movies and Transformers: Prime.On hiatus until school and motivation allows us to actually do stuff. Apologies.

The Death of the Winter Soldier by wilkwo

Summary
Set between Avengers: Endgame and the very beginning of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (with a skip to Thunderbolts at the very end), this story explores a fascinating what if...
What if there was one more trigger word?
An old one. The first one. Hidden from all but the man who put it there. A man who considers the Winter Soldier to be more than one of the world's most deadly assassins.A man who considers him... a son.
Explore one man's misplaced obsession, the stupidity of reactivating the Winter Soldier, the efforts of Sam to save him, and the power of an incredible friendship, even after death. Bonus peek at 1930s Steve and Bucky and a revelation of what Steve did for his best friend when he went back in time... that perhaps he wasn't *quite* as selfish as he seemed.
(features angsty Bucky, 'no witnesses' Winter Soldier, ass whoopin' Wilson, sedentary senior Steve AND scrawny Steve, indispensable Red Wing*, with much hurt/comfort (of Bucky, not Red Wing), and yes, a major character death. But not the one you're thinking of. Lots of bad guys and not so bad people bite it too, but you can blame the Winter Soldier for that... or just admire his hair, up to you)

Summary
“Look, I’m… I’m not really in the business of exploding little innocent laboratory experiment guinea pigs,” she said, patting Bob on the shoulder. The rodent in her hand squeaked indignantly. “So why don’t you leave here with me, and maybe we find you some clothes, and, like, a clif bar or something, because you still look sort of woozy. And then you can think about killing yourself in a way where I’m not the one pressing a button. Okay?”
She smiled at him in an attempt at comfort, straightening her posture to give herself some authority, or at least an air of confidence. He looked at her, and then the bomb, and then the guinea pig, and then behind him to the shadows on the wall. And then back to her.
“Okay,” he echoed, and she was pretty sure he had a bit less doom-and-gloom nothing-matters dejection in his expression now, so maybe she said something kind of right. Maybe.
“Great. How do you feel about wearing dead people shoes? The options here are slim.”
---
Or, Yelena gets sent to destroy O.X.E. Group evidence in a lab in Malaysia and finds... Bob. Bob, who was for sure a human experiment. Bob, who was definitely supposed to be dead. Bob, who absolutely knows more than he's letting on.

Summary
“So… shawarma?” Yelena asks after everything’s cooled down and the cameras are all gone.
“Really?” Walker sneers, “Are you serious right now, cause— cause that’s not funny—“
“I mean, it’s a little funny.” Yelena chuckles, which obviously means Alexei has to follow with loud boisterous laughter, even if he clearly doesn’t know what’s going on.

5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home by motleyfam for batmoniker

Summary
Tim is good at galas.
No, scratch that—Tim is great at galas. He’s been attending them ever since the age of three, when his parents first stuffed him into his little Gymboree tuxedo and gave him a stern lecture about ‘sitting quietly’ and ‘speaking when spoken to.’ He knows all the rules: what to wear, how to stand, when to smile, what to say, what not to say. He knows how to come across as polite and intelligent and charming, and on absolutely any other day, he would be rocking this.
---
Or, my take on a ‘Tim Joins the Family Early’ AU, told through a series of sleepovers, most of which are unplanned.
Featuring pre-teen Tim, Alive!Jason, and a whole lot of hurt/comfort.
