Summary
Caleb does love cats, that much is true. But right now, in this moment, struggling to keep out of sight and keep them all safe and together and get food and shelter and a plan for the future with eight rambunctious enchanted cats underfoot constantly tripping him and trying to climb up him and meowing incessantly for his attention, he thinks he would rather have nothing in the world than less cats and more friends again.
Or: Everyone except Caleb gets turned into a cat. Caleb doesn't enjoy it as much as one might think.

Summary
“Every demon on record is described as either monstrously terrifying or breathtakingly beautiful,” Sherlock says. “I have never heard of a demon with a forgettable face and a propensity for ugly jumpers.”
The demon looks down at his jumper. Okay, so it might not be the most flattering article of clothing in the world, but it sure looks a hell of a lot more comfortable than Sherlock’s two-sizes-too-small shirt.

Summary
The blob finished rotating into place in a way that wasn’t quite compatible with geometry as Shen Qingqiu understood it, and cleared a throat it didn’t seem to have.
“Greetings,” it said, somehow clearly addressing him in particular more than the room as a whole despite its total lack of features other than blueness and translucency. “I’m here on behalf of the Hyper-Celestial Peace and Order Enforcement Bureau. Crime scene secure, proceeding to interviews. Beginning with Subject One: You are Shen Qingqiu, formerly Shen Yuan, also known as Peerless Cucumber?”

Summary
“For things are made to endure in the Shire, passing from one generation to the next.” – Fellowship of the Ring
Hobbits are not what the others races believe. Crafted by the Valar and blessed with inherited magics called knacks, Hobbits have been ensuring the peace between the Free Peoples for a long time. No one else knows and Hobbits are content to keep it that way. However, years ago Shire life was disrupted by the marriage of Gerontius Took to Adamanta Chubb, originally known as the dragon Arradeth. Years later Bilbo Baggins is paying the price of being an odd hobbit, having inherited both Took and Baggins knacks along with his grandmother’s blood, and is the only one of her line to also have a dragon form. Now Gandalf the Grey is once again in need of a hobbit for an adventure and Bilbo must decide. Should he accompany the wizard and his group, face a dragon, and risk revealing Shire and family secrets? Or does he abandon his people’s sacred purpose and allow a stubborn king to send part of Middle Earth into war? Not to mention that if Bilbo does go he risks not only his life, but losing his dragon Heart to a band of suicidal dwarves. Either way, the choice of Bilbo Baggins may rule the fate of all Middle Earth.Series

Summary
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."
****
“70 …” 68 said slowly, taken off-guard. 70 wasn’t a brother normally inclined towards ghost-tales. “Ben isn’t real. He’s just a baby story--something the tubies like to pretend is real.”70 shook his head, his face set in stubborn lines. “He might not be. No, listen--” he gave 74 a glare when it looked like his brother wanted to interrupt again. “I’ve heard the stories, and they’re always the same. The tubies all know what he looks like. They all know he’s a jetii, before anyone ever told them what a jetii was. You know how the longnecks keep batches of tubies separate. There’s no way any of us, or any of the older vod, could have told them about him. But it doesn’t matter. All the batches know about Ben.”

Summary
"Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."
Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.
"Really, uncle?"
"Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."
Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?

It was a common saying in the North, in the endless stretch of years following the Long Night, and the after. The pack survives, whispered the North. A time for wolves will come again.
Not like this, Sansa thought desperately.

Summary
“You are… Ibn-la’Ahad?” Kadar asks, very, very carefully. And yeah, Desmond is, in the technical sense of the term. His parents won’t be born for centuries. Desmond is the Son of No One. So he nods, slowly and with some hesitance, and lets Kadar draw what assumptions he may. And fuck, that might just be easier. Calling himself another one of Umar’s sons. The man broke the tenets of the Brotherhood once, who’s to say he didn’t find comfort in any other women, right?
It’s not like they’d believe the truth anyway.
OR
Desmond returns to the beginning to rewrite the ending.- Language:

Summary
Dragons may signify the world's end but as far as Elisif's concerned, her world ended well before that when Ulfric Stormcloak murdered her husband. So it is that no one's more surprised than her when a dragon attack on Solitude reveals that there's more to the High Queen in waiting than anyone suspected.

Summary
Alec Hardison had given a lot of thought to how he would die. Death by cop. Thrown into the darkest hole Guantanamo Bay possessed. Heart attack from a lifetime diet of hot pockets and orange-colored chemicals.
He hadn't considered adding death by weather-inflicted man-eating-sharks to the list.
(Or: Interspersed by media accounts of the incident, the tale of the Leverage team vs. Sharknado.)

Summary
"Starkiller is haunted, you know. Construction crew go missing, tools aren't where they were left. Doors open and shut on their own. Footsteps echo down empty hallways…”
Another trooper leaned over to join the conversation. “I heard that it’s the ghost of the 501st. Darth Vader himself walks these halls…”
Or, the events of The Force Awakens play out a little differently when you've got what's left of Anakin Skywalker haunting Starkiller Base.
This work can be read on its own. The only thing you need to know before you dive in is that Kylo sensed Finn's sensitivity about 3 and a half years ago and has been low-key (haha not really who are we kidding) training him ever since. They are actually... pretty good friends?
The rest you'll probably figure out about 3-4 seconds after Han Solo does.

Is The Villain Supposed To Fall For The Heroes? by orphan_account

Summary
Tony is a supervillain. He is. Okay, he sort of is. However he wants people to believe he is! It's working, of course. It is one of his plans. So Tony is a villain and then there's the bank robbery and then there's Steve. Of course with Steve comes Bucky. Then comes the Avengers. He's dealing with it. Like a mature adult would. In no way shape or form does he have a crush on either Steve or Bucky, no that's just ludicrous. The Avengers aren't going to find out his secret identity, they aren't. Really, they aren't. Tony has this all under control.
