Painfully pretty and poetically painful. This is a fantastic look at the linguistics of trauma, the meaning we ascribe things, and the way we grow when we don't know how. Lyrical, layered, and lovely.

Summary
“They must receive an allowance from the Order,” Kote said.
“How much, then?” Rex asked up at him.
Kote tipped his head and just stared into Rex’s eyes endlessly, the way he did when people asked him questions that made him want to swallow them whole with their own ignorance.
“No way of knowing without intrusive measures,” he determined.
“We gotta ask one,” Bly translated for Rex.
(The troopers make a discovery of the fiscal variety, which causes them to realize that they may have more in common with the jedi than they previously thought.)

Absolutely phenomenal clones and their relationships, featuring a revolution incited by the most competent useless gay among them. Also there's a rap battle between children.

Obi-Wan is always a delight, and never more so than when he does what needs doing and drags everyone along with him, no matter their opinions on the matter. The real path to saving the galaxy was aggressive friendship and caring all along.

This. This is Tim. A lot of flavor from old school yj where intergalactic battle baseball was a thing and Secret was a secret, but with all the shiny new trauma of more recent events. Tim plans his own rescue, sure, but it's his friends who carry it out and his family that tries to bring him home. This is the Tim they meant when they said, "Hey look, it's some kid in red and green tights! Let's surrender!"
RIP Alvin Draper.

Summary
Due to a family curse (which some call a gift), Leonard Snart has more life than he knows what to do with – and that gives him the ability to see, speak to, and even share with the various ghosts that are always surrounding him.
Sure, said curse also means he’s going to die sooner rather than later, just like his mother, but in the meantime Len has no intention of letting superheroes, time travelers, a surprisingly charming pyromaniac, and a lot of ghosts get in the way of him having a nice, successful career as a professional thief.

Summary
He had died- honorably, he'd like to think, despite living as a villain and an assassin for over half a century- and that, as far as Xanxus had ever figured, would be the end of that. No heaven. No hell. Just life when you were breathing and nothingness when you stopped.
Except that it didn't, quite, turn out that way. Except he came back as the son of the kindest, sometimes saddest father in the world. In both worlds. A father that he knew, without a doubt, to be his flesh and blood. All at once, Xanxus had everything he'd wanted as a child. A home. A family. Stability. And he was going to fight like hell and beat down anyone who tried to take it from him, no matter what his age.
(In which Sakumo raises a son who speaks multiple languages from birth, all of them gibberish to the poor single father jounin, spits vulgarity with the same ease as he does his praise and burns with an unshakable determination to build himself a family that will not fall, no matter who or what is thrown against it.)

Xanxus is gonna be happy this time if it kills him. Again.
A story about scraping together your family and holding them together with sweat, blood, judicious amounts of murder, and the filthiest possible vocabulary. And Sakumo gets everything he deserved in canon, and so much more.

No one in the League could rightly say they knew exactly who, or what, Captain Marvel was.
Billy Batson did not have any plans on changing that status.
Maybe he should stop feeding into the rumor mill, then.

Captain Marvel is a hero. So is Billy Batson, and he deserves nice things. Or at least, y'know, family. A fantastic exploration of being simultaneously the oldest and youngest member of the League, and how that effects his various relationships, full of cool headcanons and an interesting plot.

Summary
Tragedy strikes the hero community when Bruce Wayne commits a crime so heinous even the best start asking for blood. However, as the heroes try to recover from the hit and carry out justice for their friends, a random assortment of people start acting oddly, including the current Speedy Tim Drake, a child hostage in Gotham, and a young man from an unremarkable circus amongst others. All of them seem intent on saving Bruce Wayne from the grasp of the Justice League for no apparent reason, going as far as betraying their previous allegiances.
Unknown to the Justice League, these people are equally confused. Clearly they're stuck in another dimension, but how do they get back? How did they even get here? Who else is stuck in this world? And how long will Tim's patience last? Back home, the Bat was a planetary symbol that struck fear in the hearts of criminals. In this new world, it has no meaning, save for the handful of stranded souls.

In any world, Cimorene is a fantastic badass and Mendanbar is a useless nerd who had no chance against her. The fun of the original series with technology, nerdery, and SHARKS.

“Okay,” Luffy says, in his best attempt at a whisper. He’s leaning forward over the middle console with a grin too big for his face. The brightest thing in Ace’s whole life, not that he’d ever say as much out loud. “You ready?”
“I can’t believe you talked me into this,” he says by way of answer, and Sabo laughs, and the three of them pile out of the car like a squad of Navy seals.

Summary
Six years ago, without the Avengers Initiative there to save the day, scientist Dr. Eric Selvig sacrificed himself to save the world, the almighty demi-god Thor was lost to a terrible storm, and vigilante Iron Man – spotted with a nuclear weapon trying to take advantage of the situation – was forever labelled an enemy of SHIELD.
This is a comic book office AU, where Steve is defrosted a year too late, Thor has forgotten who he is, and no one knows Tony is Iron Man.
Also includes: office pranks, inappropriate post-it notes, and superheroes who like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.
