Paid Time Off | Dean Winchester
(Pre-series) Dean Winchester is stuck in Lebanon, New Hampshire on enforced downtime while John finishes a solo hunt. He takes cash work at a roadside gas station and spends restless days driving the Impala in circles. You, a local who works at the county clerk’s office, offer easy, undemanding company. They waste time together—long drives, outlet-mall nights, burnt coffee, no big questions. It’s temporary. He is the running car. She is the closed garage. John’s call will end it. Until then, they pretend the world outside doesn’t matter. ˚ ✧˖° i got the car, you got the bag a handwritten note left for Mom and Dad a police scanner bouncin' on the dash a cup of burnt coffee and a check to cash i had the brains for a city job but you got the taste of a county cop a pack of cigarettes and a round of golf, make a livin' workin' for the paid time off ˚ ✧˖°

The Woods Beyond | Daryl Dixon
He found you up a tree. You'd been surviving alone for so long the silence felt safer than people. Now Daryl Dixon is bringing you back to Alexandria—whether you're ready or not. Slow-burn. Guarded hearts. Quiet tension. Late Season 5 / early Season 6. Before the Saviors. Before everything falls apart again.

exile | Bucky Barnes
After the end of the world, you and Bucky Barnes found each other in the wreckage and tried to build something real. It was good—until it wasn’t. Nightmares, self-worth, and old wounds wore you down until you walked away when he told you to. Now you're back. Sam has rebuilt the Avengers and asked you to return as liaison. Bucky is on the team—pardoned, in therapy, trying to be better. You're with someone new. Possibly engaged. You have to share the same rooms, the same missions, the same careful silences. And when the President throws a party to introduce the new team, you walk in with another man on your arm. Bucky doesn’t handle it well. A post-Endgame story about exile, unfinished business, and the quiet violence of having to keep living in the same world as the person you lost. ｡·˚ʚ i think i've seen this film before and i didn't like the ending you're not my homeland anymore so, what am i defending now? you were my town now i'm in exile, seeing you out i think i've seen this film before ɞ˚·｡

American Cars | Dean Winchester
Pre-Season 5. You’re the one who stayed behind, holding a crumbling family together while the silence at the dinner table gets sharper every night. You call Dean. He shows up in the Impala—headlights in the dark, same American car, same tired eyes—because when things get fragile, he’s always been the tough one who comes running. He’ll stay longer than he should, fix what he can, and leave when the road calls again. Until the next time you ask. ⁺₊⋆ ☾ ⋆⁺₊⋆ headlights, your plates, 4CB3A didn't know you drove american cars ray-bans on your face, you've been driving all day but you're here and we're so grateful you are⋆⁺₊⋆ ☽ ⋆⁺₊⋆

Make The Friendship Bracelets | Sebastian Stan
Being a world-famous singer came with an endless list of perks & benefits. One of the downsides, however, was limited time to focus on your personal life. You had been single for the past two years & it was working for you, or so you told yourself.

Yelena's Claim | Yelena Belova
The team is celebrating a rare clean win. Yelena has had just enough to drink to stop filtering. She pulls you into her lap in front of everyone, arms locked around your waist, and announces that you’re hers now. No one argues. Bucky looks quietly pleased. Walker mutters something about “finally.” When she kisses you it’s public, deliberate, and thoroughly claiming—the found-family chaos turning into something openly romantic without a single person objecting.

Echoes from ‘98
On September 1, 1998, an 18-year-old witch or wizard is thrown back 21 years by a malfunctioning Time-Turner, landing on Platform 9¾ on the first day of the Marauders’ seventh year (1977). Trapped in the past with full knowledge of the coming war and its tragedies, they must pose as a transfer student, navigate friendships (and possible romance) with James, Sirius, Remus, Lily and others, while struggling not to break the timeline in their desperate search for a way home. A tale of survivor’s guilt, found family, and the unbearable weight of the future.

Enchanted | Steve Rogers
Post-Endgame AU. Steve Rogers stayed in the present. Natasha and Tony lived. The Avengers remain a team. At a quiet museum fundraiser, Steve locks eyes with you across the gallery.

The Weight of Noticing | Clint Barton
The Weight of Noticing Post-Age of Ultron. The new Avengers compound is half-finished and already home. You’re the newest permanent member. Clint Barton—practical, observant, the team’s quiet caretaker—keeps finding reasons to be near you. Late patrols, shared kitchen duty, lingering glances that last a second too long. The others notice and tease. Neither of you has said anything yet.

Basement Lights | Bucky Barnes
You always sit in the back row of the trauma support group, bad cup of coffee in hand, never drinking it. The seat by the door, two seats away from you, is always empty. Until one night it isn't. You don't talk much. He talks even less.

Recommended Break Interval | Peter Parker
Two Stark interns keep ending up at the same workbench. The work is interesting. The company is better. FRIDAY keeps reminding them about recommended break intervals. The older Avengers think it’s hilarious. Peter Parker is brilliant, flustered, and slowly learning how to want something soft.
