Self-Sacrifice

​I’ll Be Okay, Just Let Go ⑅ bucky barnes

The mission was supposed to be a simple HYDRA extraction, but a triggered alarm left the strike team trapped, under fire, and clinging to a snapping winch line that cannot hold five Avengers. The weight is too much. The steel cable is unwinding right at the top. If it breaks, everyone dies. Steve, Nat, Yelena, Bucky. All of them. Bucky looks down. Down past his boots. Right into your eyes. Panic. Absolute, unadulterated terror on the face of the Winter Soldier. "Hold on to me," Bucky screams down into the roaring wind, his vibranium arm locked onto the rope, metal screaming under the stress. "Hold on to my leg! Don't you dare let go!" As the rope unspools above you and the weight drags everyone toward an icy grave, you realize there’s only one way to keep Bucky alive.

Not While I’m Standing

The Paranormal Liberation War was never supposed to leave room for hesitation. As Jaku collapses into chaos and Tomura Shigaraki becomes the center of the battlefield, Aizawa’s Erasure may be the only thing keeping everyone alive. That also makes him one of Tomura’s most important targets. Y/n is one of Aizawa’s students, a deeply loved member of Class 1-A, and close enough to witness the moments that could change everything. A bullet is fired. Tomura closes the distance. And twice, y/n is given only seconds to decide what Aizawa’s life is worth to them. Because saving someone does not erase the consequences. Sometimes it only changes who has to carry them.

It isn't a choice you make actively, at least not at the start. You just realise quickly that when Fury had told the Avengers he was recruiting you, he hadn't informed them why you were such an asset. The reason he wanted you in the first place. You figure he did it on purpose, that he knew they'd be furious when they found out. So you don't say anything. After all, taking away pain is all you've ever known. No harm in continuing the trend. It wasn't exactly dangerous, what you were able to do. Sure, it hurt. Yeah, it transferred whoever you were touching's emotional and physical pain to you. Sometimes even the entire injury. But you healed quick, it was part of the package. No need to worry the team with that, especially not as you start to realise just how much they'd flip out if they were to learn what you're doing.

The Drowned Song

For centuries, sailors have whispered about a stretch of Pacific Northwest coastline where the sea sings after sunset. Fishing boats vanish without distress calls. People sometimes wash ashore… …and sometimes they don’t. The locals blame a mermaid. Hunters call it a siren. The Winchesters are sent to put an end to it. Only… the monster they’re hunting isn’t killing anyone. She’s protecting the coast. Hidden beneath the cliffs and the icy water lives one of the last true mermaids—a solitary creature older than most human nations, fiercely territorial and deeply distrustful of mankind. For generations she’s watched humans pollute her waters, slaughter her kind, and mistake every act of mercy for malice. She long ago decided the surface world wasn’t worth saving. Until Sam Winchester sits on the shoreline instead of pointing a gun at her. While Dean remains convinced she’s manipulating him, Sam begins noticing inconsistencies in every witness statement. The victims don’t fit a pattern. The evidence contradicts centuries of hunter lore. Slowly, cautious conversations shouted across the tide give way to quiet evenings spent together. She doesn’t understand humanity. He doesn’t understand the sea. As impossible as it seems, trust grows. Friendship follows. Then something far more dangerous. But beneath the Pacific sleeps something ancient. Far older than mermaids. Far older than angels. A primordial creature imprisoned in the deepest ocean trench has begun to stir, twisting sea life into monsters and driving humans toward the water. The disappearances blamed on the “mermaid” are merely collateral damage in a war she’s been fighting alone for centuries—a war she’s finally losing. To stop the creature, Sam and the Winchesters must descend into a conflict older than recorded history, where forgotten gods, drowned civilizations, and creatures erased from Heaven’s records still linger in the abyss.

The Price of Her Freedom

Princess Elara escaped a kingdom that never wanted her and found freedom in the last place she should have: the enemy court. Hidden beneath a maid’s uniform, she builds the life she was never allowed to have, friendship, laughter, a family of her own choosing, and a dangerous slow-burning love with Duke Cassian, a man who despises everything her kingdom represents. But Elara didn’t escape alone. She left behind a secret buried beneath her father’s palace: Valeria’s missing crown prince is alive. And she knows because she was the one keeping him alive. When silence becomes impossible, Elara must choose between the life she finally wants and the prince she once left behind. The truth could bring Valeria’s lost heir home. It could also cost Elara her friends, her freedom, the man she loves… and send her straight back to the kingdom she risked everything to escape.

Loop #483

This story contains found family, repeated heartbreak, emotional damage, and enough grief to make you stare at a wall after finishing a chapter. Follow a girl{you} who remembers every life she has ever lived, every version of the people she has loved, and every goodbye she has ever endured. For hundreds of loops, fate has demanded the same sacrifice, and for hundreds of loops, she has paid the price. This time, however, she makes the mistake of letting the Avengers become her home. If you enjoy found family, devastating reveals, hidden journals, bittersweet endings, and characters who continue choosing love despite knowing it will hurt, welcome. Please collect your tissues before entering.

Only 5 minutes

The school’s most feared enforcer, Alex — your oldest, sharpest enemy — has never tolerated clinginess, weakness, or neediness in anyone. But when he finds you alone, worn thin by caring for your little sister, working to keep a roof over your heads, and surviving a home where safety never existed, he doesn’t turn away. He pulls you onto his lap; you fight to get up, too proud to break, too used to standing alone. He rests his chin heavy on your head and says, “Five minutes.” When you ask what comes after, he murmurs, “Close your eyes. Don’t think. You’re safe here. Nothing will touch you. No one will hurt you. You have no responsibilities for the next five minutes.” You whisper, “I’ve never been safe for a day in my life.” He answers, “For the next five minutes you are. Starting now.” You finally let go — only for his friends to walk in and see the impossible: the boy who loathes closeness holding you like something precious, and two lifelong enemies finally resting in the same quiet space.

The last blessing

For a thousand years, the gods have chosen six champions to stand against the darkness. The Blade. The Storm. The Shadow. The Stone. The Spirit. And the Sun. Y/n is none of them. She's just the healer assigned to keep the heroes alive. But as the war against the Void drags on, the cost of her miracles begins to mount, and the people she's sworn to protect slowly realize that every life she saves comes at the expense of her own. The prophecy says the Chosen One will save the world. It just forgot one thing. The healer was never supposed to survive long enough to discover who she really was.
