Summary
Simon focused on the view. So many stars. They were beautiful, and he was happy they'd be the last thing he'd see.
"I'm ready." Simon whispered into the still air. The combing stopped, and Simon mourned the loss immediately.
"You can kill me now."
AKA: What if Simon misinterpreted why Grace was showing him the Greenhouse? Our bodies become the soil, after all.Bookmarked by RobinWayne

Summary
On his 88th birthday, Bilbo Baggins receives a gift without a sender, a gift which changes everything...
Bilbo has lived through the canonical Hobbit and quietly raises Frodo in Bag End, when something sends him back to the winter when his parents died. It seems he has been given a new chance at everything, but how long will his good luck last...?
Trigger Warning: Bilbo will remember uncomfortable things (character death, characted hurt, some scary situations).
Safety Net: No major character dies in his new life. If you see a character's name listed, that character will not die.
This story contains kisses and battle wounds, in no particular order. There is also background betting, card games, and pipe smoking, as well as direct transcripts from the movies (Jackson & Walsh & Boyens, 2012, 2013, 2014) and direct quotations from the book (Tolkien, 1937, 1951, 1995).
Here there be feelings - and songs.
Enjoy. 💖

Summary
1987 went to shit. Vecna brought on what may well be the apocalypse, and Steve fought it to the end. Literally.
Death was supposed to be a one-way street. But knowing a girl with super powers had a tendency to change the game. So when Steve opens his eyes to a beer-soaked bathroom on Halloween in 1984, Nancy calling him 'bullshit' all over again, the universe might forgive Steve for thinking he was either a) in Hell or b) going cracked. But Steve didn't have time to freakout. Not when El finds him and asks that he help her change the events of the future. Not when he's the only other person she managed to drag with her for chance number two.
OR: A time travel fix-it, where 1987 Steve is dropped back into his 1984 self. And now he has to deal with that plus the impending apocalypse on the horizon. But he'll be fine, right? Because, as El informs whoever asks, Steve's 'The Babysitter'. So he gets to work. He can cry later, when he's done.

Tim Drake's Surprisingly Normal Semester by Sparrow (LosseBoi)
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
07 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
Jonathan Crane gets bored and, as one does in Gotham, becomes a psych professor. Somehow, no one stops him. The students love him. The staff avoid him. And no one quite remembers rehiring him in the first place.
Tim Drake is stationed at Gotham University under the guise of “monitoring” him. He’s expecting horror. He finds… a surprisingly good syllabus, a strange sense of calm, and a friend group that doesn’t know what a vigilante is.
Crane, for his part, knows exactly who Tim is. He doesn’t care, he just wants to teach. And maybe terrify a few freshmen along the way.
Or:
No one knows who hired Professor Crane, but panic attacks come with bonus points and Tim's never been happier.

And he’s making a mark on the villain population of Gotham.

Summary
“Which of you morons,” she hisses, “let Eddie log into twitter today?”
Eddie blinks.
“How do you-”
“Because, Eddie- you commented using the band account. You logged in on our official socials.”
Eddie stares at her dumbly. Then-
“Oh fuck.”
“Yes,” she agrees. “Oh fuck.”
“I’ll- delete that, then,” he laughs nervously. “Before-”
“Before someone picks up on it, screenshots it, begins distributing it across the internet at a frankly alarming pace and starts a series of hashtags up in an effort to find the ‘pretty boy’ gardener you were lusting over?”---
Eddie is a burnt-out-overworked-crash-and-burn-rockstar with a crippling twitter addiction. Steve is a chronically-offline-homegrown-indiana-boy-flowershop-owner with a green thumb and a penchant for taking in strays.
So naturally when Eddie first sees him, he's head over heels. And Steve has no clue what his day job is.
He'll tell Steve about his 'real' identity before things go too far- right?- Language:

Summary
After years of sharing classes Eddie finally found himself interacting with Steve Harrington. Inexplicably the guy wouldn't leave him alone. How is Eddie supposed to suppress his dumb crush when he can't dodge the object of his desire?
Set right after season 2, and goes up through 3. This is a slow burn, my friends. Lots of flirting and banter, and fluff, but knowing me there will be a little angst mixed in for flavor.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

Bookmarker's Notes
It's very long but oh my God this is one of the best series I've ever read.
Honestly, it should be read every couple of years so you can get right in the feels again. It's fucking beautiful.
When I read this through (in 2025) I kept trying to kudos that different fics in the series but it said I already left kudos. Once I got to the last two I could, which leads me to believe I read the first 5 back in 2020/2021 with no memory of it. But God is it wonderful. -

Summary
When Petunia Dursley refused to take Harry in she forfeited his birthright protection, so Dumbledore took the baby to the safest place he knew: Hogwarts.
The applicable staff (mostly just… not Snape) took Harry in on a rotating schedule as he grew from baby to toddler to child. They traded extra credit for babysitting among the older students, and Harry grew up knowing a few dozen different laps that were safe and warm to nap in.
This was a Harry who grew up among books, among old transient walls and learned professors. They gave Binns night duty sometimes, and let him talk young Harry to sleep. This was a Harry whose world changed, on principle, daily. The stairs moved. The walls became doors. You had to keep your eyes open–you had to pay attention. So he did.
He grew up in a school. Knowledge was power, but knowledge was also joy. This was his sanctuary. There was magic in his world from birth.

Summary
“Are you alright?” Moody asks Harry, his voice a low growl.
Harry nods absently, tilting his head as Moody raises his wand and the ferret subsequently follows. “Sir…” he starts hesitantly. “Surely that can’t be–” he cuts himself off. Moody has never seemed the most stable; Harry wouldn’t put it past him to actually transfigure a student.
If no one is going to do something, he has to. He may not like Malfoy but that’s no reason to accept what’s happening. He hesitates for a long moment. Is this a good idea? Maybe he shouldn’t talk back against Moody. Biting his lip, he flinches once again as the ferret twists particularly sharply in the air.
However, Harry isn’t often prone to making good decisions, so he raises his wand at his teacher.

Draco Malfoy has three excellent reasons to get sloshed- a father who won't accept him, a Harry Potter he can't stop crushing on and that damned hippogriff that tried to eat him. And he is going to tell them what's what, because clearly that is a good idea. Fortunately, his new muggle friend seems to have a beef with Potter too.
