Summary
Nancy shrugged, her mother’s hand falling of her shoulder, “its just.” She looks at her mom. “Havent you noticed the way mikes been acting lately?”
“Micheal? Why? Whats wrong?” Karen immediately asked, a bit confused but worried for her son nonetheless. Nancy looked at her mom and frustratingly sighed.
“I saw him sneaking out last week, and again last night.” She paused for a brief moment, gauging her mothers reaction, Shocked, maybe upset, but mostly worried. then continues.
“He’s always secretive and doesn’t talk to me. he doesn’t want to. He’s out of the house before i even know it.” Nancy wanted to continue but she stopped there for now, nancy wheeler always prided herself for being intelligent, a sort of investigator, detective if you will. she knew how to read people, but she couldn’t read her brother, mike. He was had that nervous smile on his face like he was afraid of getting caught.. but getting caught doing what? She wouldn’t judge, she never would. They promised to tell each other everything yet none of them held up their parts of the deal.Or
nancy is oblivious about byler being a thing

Summary
The story of how Derek, a borderline feral werewolf pup, finds himself having an unlikely affinity for a younger boy named Stiles—despite the fact that this kid might be the most annoying person in existence. As the years go by and hardship repeatedly strikes like a violent ocean against the shore, they realize that the only way to stay afloat in their chaotic world is by anchoring each other and learning to build despite the onslaught of chaos and destruction that Beacon Hills attracts.
[or: follow Derek and Stiles from childhood to adulthood, watch them be broken down just to rebuild stronger each time, and most importantly—bear witness to them becoming happy and proud of the people they are]
*Previously titled "Derek's Person." Now changed to be clear that this is a (Hale) pack-centric series—and while Sterek does take center focus in a lot of it, it is not solely a Sterek-centric series. The previous title reflected the first 6 short fics, as those were Sterek-centric, but the bulk of the series is about pack and what that means to each of the characters. Since the Hale pack symbol/tattoo is important, I thought this new title captured the focus of the series much better.*

Summary
They had danced, once, away from the gazes of Matchmaking Mamas, and it had left them with an odd sort of friendship that neither ever really spoke to anyone else about.
Everyone watched as Penelope and Anthony courted and were courted by good people, only to end up exactly where neither thought they would ever be: with each other.
This is that story.

Where The Water Lets You Leave by DemonicDomain
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
05 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
He spent six years in captivity, experiencing the horrors of humankind.
Katsuki just wanted to go north to find his family again, to let them know he's still alive. Kirishima finds him and promises to get him there after the winter thaws. That's it.
It was supposed to be temporary. But somewhere along the way, the water changes. A place where mers are safe. Where younglings are raised in the open. Where humans don't hunt. A place where no one is kept unless they choose to stay.
Katsuki doesn't trust it, doesn't trust the humans. He definitely doesn't trust the way his body reacts: to the water, to the others...to Kirishima. Because if it is just instinct, he can leave.
Right?

Summary
Izuku paced as he began to wonder for the hundredth time that day if he should just cancel the whole thing. But this was an expensive hotel suite and he wouldn't be able to afford to do this again. Better just to get it over with.
Izuku hadn't taken this decision lightly. It was a big deal. A momentous moment. A moral conundrum- Three sharp raps at the door halted his movements.
He sucked in a deep breath, wiped his clammy hands on his slacks and marched to the door. On the exhale he pulled it open wide and looked up into firece amber eyes.
"Deku?"

Summary
The first time Ilya coughed up a flower, he was kneeling over a toilet in the penthouse of the Fontainebleau Las Vegas, for entirely the wrong fucking reason to be kneeling over a toilet in Vegas.
There was no point in trying to pretend it wasn’t happening. He wasn’t an idiot. Hadn’t he seen his own mother waste away, coughing up clumps of clean white chamomile stained shocking scarlet? Hadn’t he known, on some level, that he was fated to follow in her footsteps one day, to throw his entire heart and soul into loving a person who would never — could never — love him back?
No, Ilya knew what this was. He also knew he’d never set foot on the ice again if anyone found out.
Blindly, he reached for the toilet paper, wiped his mouth, and then flushed the whole thing. Petals, too. He didn’t want to know what kind they were. Pizdets. It should’ve been a fucking maple leaf.
❁ ❆ ❁ ❆ ❁
the Hanahaki AU, in which Ilya loves Shane Hollander’s stupid face so much it makes him sick (literally)

Summary
Spider-Man wasn’t at City Hall that day. People died and he didn’t even show up. New York probably blamed him for letting it happen, which was okay, because he blamed himself too. He blamed himself for every second he wasn’t there, for every person who got hurt.
But, he was also one of those people.

Or, both Peter Parker and Spider-Man get screwed over. Hopefully someone gives him a break!

SandRay: Dream On by FKmy_muse
Fandoms: เพื่อนต้องห้าม | Only Friends (Thailand TV 2023)
21 May 2026
Tags
Summary
So, you guys really thought I would stay quiet after seeing SandRay for the third time in Only Friends: Dream On? Absolutely not.
Even while being deep in the middle of another SandRay angst fest, I couldn’t stop thinking about writing them again. But since we’re already emotionally suffering enough in my ongoing series, I decided this time we deserved something lighter, softer, and full of fluff.
Don’t worry though; the drama is still here; it’s SandRay, after all. But this time, let’s trade some heartbreak for teasing, tenderness, ridiculous flirting, and all the little moments that remind us just how far these two have come, inspired by the song "Needy" by Ariana Grande.
And usually, after their cameos, I stop at a one-shot, but this time, come on, we have no rules. So come along and enjoy the ride. -

Summary
In the unforgiving world of Attack on Titan, where humanity cowers behind towering walls in fear. Titans, you find yourself thrust into the heart of the Survey Corps’ most elite unit—the Levi Squad. But this is no ordinary tale of survival; it’s a deeply personal journey of discovery, loyalty, and the unbreakable bonds forged in the face of despair.
Through harrowing battles and quiet moments, your relationship with the rest of the Levi Squad evolves. The shared trauma of loss, the weight of duty, and the flickering hope for a better world draw you closer. Levi’s hardened yet protective nature, Erwin’s calculating leadership, Hange’s relentless curiosity, and the squad’s unwavering trust in one another become your anchor in a world teetering on the brink of collapse.
Emotions run raw as you confront not only the Titans but also the demons within. Fear, guilt, and determination clash as you fight for survival—not just for humanity’s sake, but for the family you’ve found in your brothers-in-arms. Will uncovering the truth set you free, or will it shatter the fragile bonds you’ve come to cherish?
