Summary
"If faith could be made flesh, if it could walk and breathe and laugh, it would be you."
In the vast meadows of Kentucky, you live alone on your small ranch. One day, a lone gunslinger, battered and weary, rides up to your home and collapses at your feet. For some reason, your heart made you bring him inside, tending to his wounds. In your care, he finds a reason to live again, swearing to stay by your side and give his life to you, even if you didn't know it yet.

Loki returned to Asgard clapped in irons after his invasion of Earth. After much discussion and bargaining it was decided the best course of action was to execute him for his crimes. On his way to his death his salvation arrives, but it is not his brother or mother come to plead for his life.

Summary
In 1945 Steve Rogers crashed the Valkyrie into the Arctic Ocean and was never recovered.
In 2019 Bucky Barnes is walking along the beach below the decommissioned lighthouse where he lives with his sixteen month old daughter when he finds the body of a man washed up in the surf, half frozen but miraculously alive.
Bucky manages to revive him, but finds that the stranger has no memory of who he is or how he got here aside from a name: Steve. Snowed in by a blizzard soon after and unable to get Steve a medevac, Bucky discovers that the funny, good-hearted man slips into the fabric of his and Alice’s life faster than he would have thought possible. The two are undeniably drawn to each other, but as their feelings grow so does the looming possibility that the answer to the question “who is Steve?” might be much more complicated than either of them realized.

Summary
In the course of her adventures, Bilbo finds herself pregnant. Without an offer of marriage from Thorin, she returns to the Shire to raise the child with the help of her family.
The King Under the Mountain is heartbroken that Bilbo chooses to leave Erebor, but he cannot blame her. Not after he tried to kill her. There was a time when she would have proposed marriage, but that time is clearly past. If all he can have of her are her letters, then he will be grateful for the missives.
Getting these two to talk just might take divine intervention. Or the intervention of a particularly interested child.

Summary
Draco shifts his head as he turns to look at Scorpius, his cheek touching the pillow. "Did you know that…" He pauses, his throat convulsing, and it sounds audible in the silence, besides Michael's steady, even breathing from the other bedroom.
Scorpius is staring back at him, in wait of something new to learn, a beautiful and intelligent child. He has Draco's mind. He has Draco's eyes and nose and mouth and hair. He is his. All his. All he has of Michael are his wild curls and the green of his eyes, and sometimes he looks into them and imagines that they aren't Michael's, but someone else's.
Draco leans his head closer, biting the quiver out of his lips before he breathes a laden and shuddering exhale, and he whispers, "You are my star in a big black sky."

Summary
You haven't exactly been in the best situation these last few years, with your boyfriend being an abusive asshole, your job being hell, and you only having one friend in the terrifying and claustrophobic city that is New York. One day, you literally fall into the arms of a sweet stranger who doesn't seem to be much of a talker, and for whatever reason, you can't help but feel safe around him. Good thing he happens to live next door.

EDIT 5/28/25: This vintage little fic is picking up again post Thunderbolts* (heyyy fellow Bucky Lovers) and seeing new comments and kudos made me come back to it and want to fix up my 18-year-old creative writing. I've gotten two degrees in English since this fic was originally started, so hopefully I can edit and brush up some of this story to fit my current standards, or at least make it more readable. Editing one chapter at a time and doing it slowly, but I hope new and old readers alike can still get some joy out of it!

Summary
Transmigrating into the stallion novel he hates most is bad enough, but why did it have to be into the body of one of the protagonist's wives? Shen Yuan spends exactly two months dealing with harem intrigues, sullen maids and his husband utterly ignoring him before he decides to go on an extended holiday. Very extended. Surely no one will care if he just forgets about being married and becomes a cultivator, right?
(In which Luo Binghe goes on a quest to bring his errant husband home and Shen Yuan takes him on an adventure instead.)

Summary
You love him.
You love him so much it hurts, you love him so much it scares you. It's wrong, they tell you. It's wrong, you parrot back. But he's so pretty when he hands you the flower, he's so pretty when he cries, he's so pretty when he looks at you like you're the only thing in his world.
But you hide, and he runs. You lose him, you watch him disappear and take your world with him.
You never get over him. You never will, but years later, maybe the teammate who reminds you of that boy that you adored so dearly can be let in over a drink. Maybe the Austrian giant who messes with his fingers and stands to the side just like your teenage love used to can be let into your life, maybe you can find a friend in the similarities they share.
Or maybe you're just too scared of love to see what's been in front of your eyes the whole time.

Summary
Shen Qingqiu had a secret. So, naturally, it was only a matter of time before he was hit by a truth serum wife plot.
//
“How are you?”
“Horny. Kind of want Binghe to rail me, I guess. But it’s manageable.”
Liu Qingge’s hand on his forehead froze, and he was close enough that Shen Qingqiu could hear his breathing stop. He stared back expressionlessly, the mortification distantly crawling up the back of his neck. Honest One-Horned–
The frustrated scream that he usually vented in his head, came out straight from mouth.
“aaAAAAAHHHH GODDAMNIT AIRPLANE–”

Summary
"The tragic reality is," Gojo started, all fake distress as he draped himself over the table, hand to his head in a mock impression of distress. "Is that I'm not dateable, my dear friend. Just fuckable."
Satoru had known this for years now, all his past 'friendships' turning out to be nothing more but ploys to get him into bed with at least a little bit of tact. It shouldn't hurt now, after all he knew what he was like. Selfish. Annoying. Ungrateful. A nuisance. But how could he stop when it was the only way to make people tolerate him, to form some sort of connection no matter how shallow it might be?
Suguru, however, didn't care for all that. All he knew was that suddenly he couldn't go anywhere without a certain individual always one step behind him not matter how he turned down all his flirtatious offers. But as he learns more about the person behind the mask of Gojo Satoru, his feelings grow, but what can he do except stamp them out? After all... he can't turn into just one of yet another faceless individual who only values Satoru for what he can do and what he looks like.
Or, "easy" Gojo has massive self esteem issues and craves connection more than anything while Suguru panics over his feelings

Summary
“That’s… This can’t be real, right?” Yuji’s prior confidence had left him. “And even if it was, it’s never that easy. Knowing my shitty luck, I’ll just end up making it worse. We shouldn’t screw around here unless we have to.”
“While there is wisdom to be had in your caution, don’t paint yourself in such a negative light.” Choso wondered if Sukuna was to blame for the sudden shift in his attitude. The curse had been silent since Yuji had reclaimed his control over his body, but that was only from the perspective of an outside observer. There was no telling what Sukuna was up to while hidden in a place Choso’s ears couldn’t reach.
“Not even if it’s true?”
♦ Yuji and Choso separated from the rest of their makeshift team while on their way to meet Master Tengen, find themselves displaced eleven years in the past. How this came to be is uncertain, but with the opportunity to prevent the disasters of their time from ever transpiring at their fingertips, how can they sit idly by and wait for the world to catch up to the grim reality they left behind?
