This is the Place to Affix the Stamp by freegiftjones (spiderclown)

Summary
For the sake of bullshit government efficiency, countless American federal workers are let go from their jobs in the summer of 2025. It was only a matter of time before the Department of National Identity was hit, as no one knows what they actually do. Who would have thought this would set off a chain reaction leading to the reveal of... immortal personified country people who walk among us.
This is a story about government corruption, personal liberty, the power of collective strength, caring for your neighbor, and loving one another without giving a damn who sees it. Also, the Stamp Act of 1765.

Summary
“You don’t have to get me a gift, really, it’s fine-”
“Okay, hold up!” Alfred says quickly, “Let me finish! I had this idea, and Matt and Francis said it was a good one. Basically, if you want and are able, I was thinking you and I could go on a little American road trip next summer. If you want. Just us. You’ve never really seen the country that you helped to… sire, or whatever.”
In the summer of 2024, Alfred takes Arthur on a great American road trip in hopes of rebuilding their lost relationship.

Summary
“We’re people, that’s great news,” Alfred reiterates, steering the topic back to neutral waters. “I guess let’s rip the bandage off—are we brothers?”
“We’re brothers no matter what,” Matthew quickly reminds him.
Warmth spreads through his chest, but Alfred rolls his eyes, “Are we related?”
A story told in five parts about DNA testing, chosen families, fake birth certificates, group chats, and the slow mending of a centuries-old hurt.

Summary
America, being America, says something he should've known better than to say in his own airport, whereupon he is taken in for questioning and finds it very difficult to explain why this particular nineteen-year-old seems to be as politically active as the President himself.

Summary
There was a moment between birth and ascending where a newborn god was vulnerable, the touch of pure immortality still grabbing a hold of them. Immortality, after all, was not a thing to be created or destroyed. It was the concept of unchanging permanence, and one could not be born or dying permanently, forever.
And those who are not gods cannot see a god’s true form without irreparable harm.
The only thing Apollo ever saw was his sister’s true form.

Blind!Apollo AU, where this changes everything and nothing at all

Earth's #1 Xenobiologist (Rocky wears the strap) by beakus-freakus (Trixree)

Summary
If this record is a confession, let it be a complete one: the human-thinking-machine Rocky was gifted has everything on it. With the aid of the device Rocky had made back aboard the Mary that translates light on Grace’s human-visual displays to texture on Rocky’s Eridian-sonar display, accessing all of humanity’s combined wisdom is as easy as making a database query.
Rocky consumes approximately 1,600 Earth-hours of human pornography before the ship’s engines cease to function, leaving it dead and stranded in space. Again.

Summary
"Cell," he says. "My crew have problem with cells. Many many cells die. Not infection. Not injury. No reason. But not me. Never me. Why, question? I not know."
*** *** ***
From a planet orbiting the fading Eridani 40, a crew of twenty-three Eridians board a ship, and start the long journey towards the blazing star Tau Ceti, hoping to find the solution to their dying star, thereby saving their world from extinction. They are the best and brightest on their planet, and while they are nervous, hope and camaraderie are high.
And then, one by one, and then all at once, they begin to sicken.
Except for one.

Language Barriers by Kastaborous

Summary
The group made their way over to the two Hylians, where the individual they had rushed to save was conversing with the newcomer. The newcomer was heavily scarred on his left side, and from the bow on his back, he was the archer who had brought down many of the monsters.
“Hello,” Time said, as he nodded to them. “Could you point us toward Castle Town?”
The scarred man blinked. “Nanda?”
…
The Heroes of Courage are spread across ages. Hundreds to thousands of years between them. It should come as no surprise that they are having some trouble communicating. But when they’re dropped in a world of alien technology and a language wholly unfamiliar, they really wish Hylia had thought ahead.
Or, the gang-meets-wild fic in which there is an appropriate amount of linguistic drift between Links, Hylia does not provide Google Translate, and Wild is a linguaphile among other things.

Summary
"Well, Wild? This is your Hyrule. Have you figured out why we're here?" Time asked.
"Yeah." Wild swallowed thickly, forcing bile down his throat.
"Well?" Legend raised an impatient eyebrow, and Wild turned away. How was he going to explain this? He'd told them virtually nothing of his journey. How was he supposed to convey how terrible this situation was? That the Blights had been revived.
"Come on. We're heading towards Zora's Domain."A gang-meets-Wild fic with an actual plot (I think). Featuring a Wild who's a tad more secretive about his journey.
Linked Universe belongs to Jojo, and I'm just a fan. :3

Five times Mikey wasn't Mikey and the one time it was explained by Ghosts_stories for The_Covens_Plural_Works
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)
30 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Growing up in the New York sewers as ninja mutant turtles came with plenty of strange stuff.
Raph frequently spoke in third person and went insane when left alone too long.
Donnie was way too smart for his age, no matter what age, and was incredibly peculiar about just about anything.
Leo knew a seemingly random selection of Spanish sentences and got practically just as obsessed over various topics as Donnie, even if he was far less likely to admit it.
And Mikey sometimes wasn't Mikey._____
Or, in which the turtles don't realize its unusual for one of their siblings to contain more people until it's pointed out to them.

It turns out that being a human with a single alien best friend is very different than being a human immersed in an entire diverse alien culture.
Or: finding your place on a different world is difficult. Thankfully, having spent several years teaching middle schoolers, Dr. Ryland Grace is used to alien cultures.
