Summary
Originally written with Levi's squad in mind, but come to think of it, it's ambiguous enough for the reader to assume Levi is dreaming of humanity in general.
Anyway, summary:
Levi is humanity's strongest soldier. But even the strongest soldiers are powerless in their dreams.

Summary
"I keep waiting for the time when I wake up in bed, it turns out I slept in too long again, and I grab my bag and hurry off to school like it's another normal day. But each time I wake up, it's to another one of these 'trials' where I run for my life. Even if I am dreaming, this 'Entity' is the one in charge of my dreams, not me." Lost Tapes:Marinette Dupain-Cheng
Paris's two gilded heroes went deep into the woods to chase an akuma down and purify it. After sending the victim on their way, they thought it would simply be another normal ending to an akuma battle. That is until Marinette and Adrien find themselves seperated, de-transformed, and without their kwami's at a clearing with an inextinguishable fire and strange people they don't know. The sun goes down and the moon shows it's light. A deep roar pierces the night sky. Their surroundings changing with each night. And with that, the hunt begins.

Summary
REWRITTEN, REPOSTED HERE (Original is on fanfiction.net, it's not that great mind you). Original written back in 2014, not gonna be updated unless I post this back on fanfic.net as well.
Abby's lived in Gotham for five years and for five years she's been wondering why the hell she thought Gotham University was the perfect place to get her B.A. With nowhere else to go, a run down townhouse given to her by her grandmother (who abandoned Gotham for Florida as soon as she had the money), and a B.A. in sociology Abby isn't quite sure what she'll do. The weird behavior of her best friend and the pure terror of being a hostage every week or so isn't helping matters at all.

Actually I don't enjoy writing this anymore. Probably won't update. Sorry.

When Keith starts losing his natural magical ability his world turns upside down and no one seems to be able to help him. If he can't use his magic, he can't protect Altea, and Zarkon's dark forces will overcome the proud magical capital.

Hopefully the Red Paladin can win his familiar's trust and regain the strength to protect the city, before it is left in shambles

He wished he was dead. If no one came for him, he must not have mattered that much anyways. No one cared enough to come find him, they probably didn’t even remember his name at this point, if it’s been as long as he feels it has. And yet, it felt like he had just been captured.

Summary
“What would you do if the world was about to end?” Tim asked as casually as he could, “The world was about to end and you couldn’t do anything about it. What would you do?”
Conner admired the halo of sunset light that framed Tim’s form. He took a long moment, looking into Tim’s eyes, memorizing the curve of his lips, the way his chest moved with his soft breaths, the way his hair fell to frame his face, capturing the image in his mind and then answered unexpectedly serious, “I’d stay here and watch the sunset with you.”

Steve is gorgeous, tall and blond and built like a football player. And he talks to Bucky like a real person, not some caricature to appease. The thought of him getting up makes Bucky panic slightly. "No! That's not-" He blushes and kills time by drinking his coffee. "I'm not- I don't know-"
"It's ok." Steve smiles and Bucky gets the feeling he understands despite Bucky’s gibbering. "Do you want me to go?"
"No, stay. Gotta start somewhere, right?"

Summary
Right before their first spring break at NYU, MJ comes over to Ned and Peter's apartment for a favor: she needs someone to spend a week with her and her family in Hawaii, and come as her date to her aunt's wedding so her family will finally stop tormenting her about being single. There's one catch, though: Peter and MJ can't stand each other, and entangling them in a fake relationship will definitely ensue chaos... and maybe something else.

Summary
Peter has a rhythm. A system. All runs like a well-oiled machine, engineering pun intended.
He trades sleep for caffeine probably more often than is strictly healthy but he's doing well enough at Columbia to keep his scholarship, which is what counts.
Come summer, Peter can take on more shifts at the restaurant and do some additional private events for Rumlow for extra cash. May and Ben think it's all from tips, which is exactly what Peter needs them to believe.
Every wheel of his life is churning perfectly.
He doesn’t expect Tony Stark of all people to throw a wrench in it.

Summary
Crowley had gotten used to scratching a particular itch in Hell, but he was cut off from it the moment he and Aziraphale cut ties with their employers; and now, happy and in love, the itch is suddenly back and worse than ever.
Guilt tastes sour and selfish, especially when he finally had everything he’d ever wanted sitting in a cottage in South Downs, and Crowley comes to terms with the fact that this probably was never just about sex after all.
In short: Crowley is used to getting fucked by a personification of his self-esteem issues and finds that he has a hard time asking for what he really wants.
And what he wants is to be in the lap of the Divine.

Jungkook, a Powerless, is thrown into a much more exciting life. Whether that life is good or bad is still to be determined, but his six new hyungs certainly make it interesting. The new life brings up old wounds and makes him face himself over and over. But the others are there to help him and who knows, at the end maybe a better, stronger and happier Jungkook will be the result.
Summary writing is hard, (-.-) This story will be some of your typical a/b/o storylines together with powers and kingdoms and coups and lots happening. It will hopefully be quite the ride.

Thanatos knew aiding Zagreus through the pits of the Underworld would come at a risk, but when the hammer falls, he's heartbroken nonetheless.
Sent to spend the rest of eternity amongst mortals, Death Incarnate tries to figure out how to walk the way of humans, slowly acclimating to weird customs and fashion, all while the Olympians are finding his situation too curious to keep their fingers out of.
If it wasn't bad already, Nyx claims he's in dire need of a companion, and it turns out to be very hard to stay bitter over life with a blood-thirsty kitten craving all of your attention.

Dialing a wrong number was no unusual occurrence. Everyone did it once in a while, and Katsuki was well aware of that fact.
However, possessing this knowledge made it no less aggravating for him to discover — a full two minutes into his rant about his day — that he’d been venting his frustrations to a complete stranger. As if that wasn't enough, said stranger was also inexplicably determined to hear his story to its end.

Summary
“People like us,” Logan had once remarked to Virgil. “Are statistical anomalies.”
(Almost) Everyone in the world has powers. As for those who don’t, well, they’re such a small part of the population - only 0.04% - why would anyone care about them?
Ever since he realized what people mean when they call him Powerless, Virgil Sanders has tried to fight back against the system that oppresses people like him, Patton, and Logan. When Patton’s bakery is targeted in a hate crime, he finally snaps. With the help of a mysterious sponsor, Virgil becomes a villain, ready to remake a broken society. The only thing standing in his way is the world’s most Powerful (and infuriatingly charming) superhero: The Prince, who is hiding the fact that his gilded life isn’t as perfect as it may seem.

Bucky vowed to avoid Clint as much as possible, because if he had to spend any amount of time with this guy, he was going to develop a truly disastrous crush.
“Any chance you want to make a habit of the morning run thing?” Clint asked hopefully as they started to climb the stairs. “Cause I could totally use a workout buddy.”
Terrible idea.
“Great idea,” Bucky blurted out, trying to stop himself from sneaking sideways glances at Clint’s biceps. “Yeah, that sounds…” Torturous. Ill-advised. Problematic. “That sounds great.”
(Or: the one where Clint has nipple piercings and Bucky has a thirst.)

Summary
Most crime fighters are heroes, superpowered people who were trained at a young age to beat the bad guys and serve the everyman, born and raised to protect and save the lives of those who couldn't defend themselves. Pretty much every kid wanted to grow up to be a hero, obviously. Fame, fortune, fighting, it was every tiny child's dream, but only a select few were allowed to become heroes, especially not powerless ones.
And that was just Tommy's issue, he was powerless.
It seemed that everyone around him had some sort of quirk or superpower that made them stronger, that gave them incredible abilities like no other, but Tommy, arguably the kid who wanted to be a hero the most, was left untouched by luck.
But that didn't mean he couldn't help out. Far from it, in fact.
Or...
Tommy is a vigilante, kicking ass and fighting crime, but catches the attention of a few familiar faces.
