Summary
Sebastian has never given two thoughts to the writer who lives on the beach. He probably hasn’t said more than five words to him the entire time the man has lived in Pelican Town.
Elliott needs a muse. He’s sought a simple, impoverished life hoping to spark creativity. Now running out of his novel’s advance and time to get it to the publisher, he doesn’t know if he’s got what it takes to hack it.
On a cold, rainy night in early spring, two lost souls accidentally touch. What happens next is something neither expected.

Summary
Jason's been away from his adopted family for a long time and he's spent that entire time working against them. They're criminals and Jason's time away has taught him that what they do is wrong, plain and simple. Family isn't that easy to cut ties with, however, and Jason finds himself struggling to keep his past emotions separated from the present when a series of events draws his predecessor into his vicinity. Dick Grayson is every bit as sexy, charming, and dangerous as he was when Jason first met him, only this time he has everything to lose and the thing he wants to protect the most is his long lost Little Wing. Turns out that evil might be as cut and dry as it seems, but family defies everything.

Summary
When Diego had decided to turn vigilante, he’d foreseen that he’d likely be shot at, stabbed, punched, and/or assaulted with any number of blunt weapons, often during the same night. He never imagined that’d he’d ever run the possibility of being kidnapped by a skinny priest in order to be sacrificed to some God of Death—
“And Misfortune,” said the priest, “but we don’t advertise that. You’d be surprised how many people are OK with death but Not OK with a teeny bit of bad luck.”

Summary
That’s a fucking kid, is the first thing that Iruka thinks.
That’s the fucking jinchuriki, is the second.
The first thought comes back, even stronger, overwhelming him with outrage, with fury, with a sick sort of disgust, and now it comes out as a shouted,
“That’s a fucking kid.”

Summary
Odin’s vault contains many treasures.
The best of all realms’. Where they can be safely kept when they would otherwise cause great destruction. Some items have been forfeit following cataclysmic wars. A few have been here since Asgard herself, their home worlds lost to time and now are nothing but beautiful wonders. There’s one possession in particular that stands out from the rest: no mere trinket.
A boy rests in a glass display, an image of sleep so close to death it makes Thor shiver.

Summary
A dark wind blows from Derry, all the way past Castle Rock to Dark Score Lake where Camp Moribund sits waiting for the air to clear. The children here are wary; they, unlike the adults, know what lurks below. They know what killed Marcie Harris.
The agents of the FBI's Behavioural Analysis Unit have no memory of this place. When a search for a missing girl and the investigation into the boy covered with her blood leads them to the shores of Dark Score, the last thing they expect to find is a photo of them together, dated some twenty years prior. As far as they know, the picture is impossible. They've never been here.
But they're wrong. They might not remember Dark Score, but It definitely remembers them.

Summary
It’s been nearly three weeks since Thor began wandering through the heart of Western Jotun territory, making his way on foot through the ancient forest blanketing the mountains— a place of heavy mists and changeable weather. Jotnar villages nestle here and there, the massive trees giving way to small but lively settlements.
Thor sets his traps along the paths used by the creatures of the forest, near the rivers and streams and berry thickets that draw them in numbers. He's still several days out from camp when his keen hearing picks up the sounds of an animal in distress.
It isn’t a call familiar to him.

Summary
Despite Steve having a toothbrush that he leaves lying next to Billy’s on the bathroom sink, a few extra pairs of his work clothes hanging in the closet, and a literal fucking key to the place, they aren’t dating. They’re just two guys who hang out a lot and occasionally stick their hands down each other’s pants.
Totally casual, totally heterosexual.

“He’s not a slave, Optimus. I gave him to Soundwave. In fact, I’ve essentially rewarded him for trying to kill me. He’ll be running around throwing paint everywhere and blasting nonsense out of his speakers like Soundwave’s other little terrors soon enough.”
Notably, Soundwave doesn’t argue with this assessment at all.
