Summary
The young man stared at him, shocked.
"You... don't you remember me?" he asked, finding it simply inconceivable.
And Lance, in other circumstances, would have been amused by that reaction, but there was a little girl he had to bring back to her mother; he hadn't slept for almost twenty-seven hours and needed a break.
"No, dude, now if you want to excuse me..."
The boy turned Lance to him, their faces a short distance away, purple eyes fixed on his, and Lance's treacherous heart skipped a beat.
"Blue Spirit, I'm Red Warrior. Do you really not remember me?"
At that point, Lance began to break out in a cold sweat. Of course, he couldn't remember him. Lance wasn't the real one.
(In which, due to a stupid stunt, the seventeen-year-old Lance dies and finds himself in the body of a villain of his best friend's favourite graphic novel, trying not to attract too much attention. Too bad for Lance, Keith doesn't make things easy for him at all.)

Summary
"I'm hallucinating now," Damian muttered to himself, as the boy stared at him, uncertainly, "Mhm, pretty sure I'm not a hallucination."
"That's what a hallucination would say, Richard," he said, knowing he sounded petulant. Whatever the Galra had given him to keep him quiet, it was stronger than many of the drugs he had become accustomed to during his training with the League of Assassins.
It was only for this reason that he risked falling forward. Fortunately for him, he was promptly grabbed by the boy. It was a strong, solid grip, and definitely not a hallucination.
Damian looked up, meeting eyes that reminded him of a dead man, and the other said, "You confused me with another person. My name is not Richard. It's Lance."
(During his imprisonment on an alien ship, after sacrificing himself to save Earth, Damian meets a boy who reminds him terribly of his dead brother. He can't be who he believes, but the resemblance is striking, and Damian just wants to believe that something left by Dick Grayson still exists.)

Summary
"Shh. It's dead now. The trap worked." Zenitsu flinched at the sticky warmth on his cheeks, not tears, but Tanjirou's blood.
Somewhere behind Tanjirou, the floorboards creaked. Inosuke leaned against the shattered doorframe, his boar mask askew, revealing one swollen-shut eye and a grin too sharp to be human. "Toldja he'd cry," he snorted, spitting red onto the floor. "Like a damn waterwheel."
Tanjirou shot him a glare, but Zenitsu caught it, the twitch at the corner of his mouth. Amusement. Agreement. Something inside him cracked wider.
Zenitsu's breath hitched wetly. He wanted to shove Tanjirou away, to scream that they didn't get to laugh at him while his knees still shook from the scent of his own piss, but his fingers only tightened in Tanjirou's haori, knuckles white against the bloodstained fabric. The metallic tang filled his nose, thick enough to taste. His throat burned. Of course they'd mock him. He'd sat here sobbing while they fought. While they bled.
(In which a mission leaves Zenitsu with the crippling feeling of being just a burden, and Tanjirou doesn't understand, but wishes he could see him smile again.) -

Summary
"Nezuko! I told you not to leave!"
A boy of eighteen appeared next to the girl, appearing extremely stressed, his forehead bandaged and one eye covered by bandages.
Despite his appearance and injuries, Zenitsu couldn't be wrong.
That was Tanjuro Kamado! The MC! The hero! The best person who ever existed and...
Oh God, now he was looking at him.
Tanjuro tilted his head, "Hi, are you also a disciple?"
"I... ah... I..."
What is a fan supposed to do when they met their absolute favorite character after he died an excruciating death?
Squeaking like a madman and fainting, of course. And he was also promptly grabbed in the arms of the protagonist! Hey, why was his face so red?
Nevermind, soon it will no longer count for anything.
In any case, Zenitsu was already dead. Right?
(After dying, Zenitsu wakes up in the world of his favorite manga, but as a villain! He doesn't want to die again, especially not at the hands of his favorite character! Of course, the most logical solution is to leave! Too bad Tanjuro finds him again, and again, and again...)

Summary
"You're lost in your mind again," the priest said, his warm breath tickling his face, "Worried about that fake king?"
"I..."
He didn't know what to answer. He didn't even know who he was talking about. All his focus was elsewhere; he couldn't think, he felt everything too intensely. He was experiencing violent emotions in their intensity, like he had never felt before when sharing a body with Yuugi.
The priest's hands were large, rough—working hands, but they moved with unexpected delicacy, tracing the contours of Yami's collarbone before sliding down his chest. His skin burned where the man touched him, every nerve alight with something deeper than lust—an ache of recognition, of longing buried so deep he hadn’t realized it existed until now. His breath hitched, and he swallowed hard, fighting the heat pooling low in his stomach.
(Yami is in the past, in his body, and with a stranger in his bed. A stranger he knows very well.)

Summary
Peter’s headache is only growing worse. He has no idea where he is, no recollection of the past 24 hours, and is stuck inside a small, cramped space with Deadpool.
And, apparently, a slumped, unconscious lump of a man. What the heckaroonie.

Summary
“What did you do now Merlin?”
“Got cursed.”
Merlin slumped into the room and fell onto the bench of the table across from Gaius, laying his head dramatically on a book of something or other Arthur didn’t bother to look too closely at.
“Cursed.” Gaius echoed, unimpressed.
“Cursed.” Merlin sighed back, like some kind of weepy maiden.
“He can’t lie,” Arthur supplied, walking further into the room and standing behind Merlin, pushing his head off the book roughly. Merlin squawked and glared at him before shaking his head and turning back to Gaius.
"It gets worse."

Summary
Prompt: Druids start to slowly come out of hiding, living their lives peacefully in the kingdom and even sending a diplomat or two to Camelot. After a close call or two, Merlin has to have a chat with them about not revealing Merlin's identity. While no one ever does reveal Merlin is Emrys, a lot of people start to talk about Emrys in Camelot.
