Bookshelf for Sleepless Nights
Stories that kept me up an entire Friday and/or Saturday night reading. Some of them kept me up on Sunday night too, even though I had work the next day.
Totally worth it, though.

Summary
vencuyanir [ven-COO-yah-neer]: sustain, keep alive, preserve (Mando'a)
About to be taken away from Arvala-7, Elana only has two objectives: keeping Bean alive and getting away from the Mandalorian
~
The Mandalorian's helmet then snapped around to her, and Elana flinched, still reeling from the strange display in front of her.
"You’re the caretaker?" he asked gruffly. Elana barely managed to nod, scared out of her wits.
The Mandalorian was quiet for a long time, his intimidating presence alone enough to make her hold her breath. Crouching in front of her, a long moment passed where she could almost feel his gaze scrutinising her. Then, he reached out and tugged her upwards with an unexpected gentleness from a bounty hunter.
She looked up at him, shaking in fear. The visor glared down menacingly. A low command came from beneath the helmet, causing shivers to run down her back.
"Pack your things."

Summary
Look, I’ll be the first to admit that I had never much bought into the whole pearly gates or eternal damnation business. I couldn’t tell you what I was expecting of the afterlife - but it sure as hell wasn't this.
Moody glowered. "What is with you today?"
I grinned back at him. Oh, you have no idea.
You died, the first time, on a random thursday afternoon. Waking up in the body of a young - and very much alive - Moaning Myrtle, you couldn't quite believe your luck. But alas, no rest for the newly deceased. There is work to be done. Between stopping Tom Riddle from opening the Chamber of Secrets, evading the Knights of Walpurgis, and figuring out just why Olive Hornby hates you so much, you’ve got a very busy afterlife.

Summary
Peter was alone, mid-way through an existential crisis after the Erasure™ and was dreading the upcoming month of May.
Jason was sick of people telling him how he felt. ‘You don’t need us anymore,’ Artemis had told him, as if saying it would make it true. As if Jason needed someone to justify keeping them around. But three weeks back in Gotham and all Jason felt was fucking bored and lonely.
It was a relief, then, when some random New Yorker was thrown into his living room through a portal straight out of some LSD daydream.
Finally, something interesting to deal with.
Cue some wild family misunderstandings, criminal conspiracies and cults.
Because there’s always a goddamn cult.

Summary
When visiting the campus for Gotham University, Percy and Annabeth couldn't help but feel something...wrong about the whole city. The Greek kind of wrong. Their decision made for them, they decide to investigate as they go to school. But before they can really start their investigation, something goes wrong, and they suddenly have a new objective. One that might put them on the wrong side of the local vigilantes.
Jason Todd's new neighbor has something off about him, something that Jason just cant put a finger on. And as they actually start to become friends, and Jason spends more time around the enigma that seems to be Percy Jackson, he comes to the only logical conclusion.
Percy has to be an assassin.

Summary
Danny would like to say for the record that it was not his fault.
In fact, Danny would say that it was entirely Clockwork's fault. After all, he wouldn't even be in this situation if it wasn't for that cryptic time god.
But what was his fault was the fact that he kept helping.
He kept taking the cash from the assholes messing with the residents who lived in the area (and damn there were a lot of assholes near where he lived). He kept accepting their offers of food. So because of this new routine that kept him able to afford to rent out his shitty (and possibly illegal) apartment and the hunger pangs sufficiently satisfied, rumors grew.
tldr; after Clockwork dropped of Danny in Gotham he tries to make the best out of the situation which includes helping out some people. Except along the way that led to rumors that he was an up-and-coming crime boss. A rumor he was largely unaware of.
Not Abandoned! Slow updates.

Summary
John Constantine beat the system of life and death until it fully refused to touch him anymore, and when it did, it never went well. It was a fact that the League had come to terms with, or those that knew, anyways. None of Constantine’s past could explain the kid in fuzzy pajamas that was curled up on a chair in the Justice League’s control room asking for the elusive brit.
Danny had barely made it to high school graduation only to be thrust into dealing with the millennia of bullshit waiting ever so patiently for the King of the Infinite Realms to look at. The fact that there was a weird amount of paperwork filed regarding some dude named John Constantine that looked like the weirdest form of tax fraud he’d ever seen was puzzling, and his parents committed that regularly. He has no idea what the hell he’s looking at.
Alternately: Danny is the inter-dimensional personification of the IRS for Death and the Unliving, and he just has a couple questions.
