Title: All The Other Ghosts
Author: Rainjoy
Pair: pre-Klaine (Klaine in later chapters. Background Tike and Finchel)
Rating: R
Summary:  It’s a big city for one more lost soul in a mask.

He sits on a blanket on the rooftop of Cooper’s building, with a flask of coffee and a pair of binoculars next to him. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. He’s being stupid. Like the Ghost’s just going to pass by this building, maybe wave as he goes? You don’t run into a superhero on top of a quiet residential block where nothing’s happening, he needs to be out there somewhere where there are sirens and yelling and - well, and danger. People who need rescuing. People who need help.

Apocafic: Maritime Practices 101

c-is-for-circinate:

Tonight’s plan is basically just to churn out as much apocafic as I can manage before the world ends.  We start with a bit more Community, because the HMS Greendale is always a happening place to be.

Also, it occurs to me that some readers may not be familiar with Jeff’s musical allusion in the last snippet, so here it is: the Arrogant Worms, The Last Saskatchewan Pirate.  Always worth a listen :)

Title: Enigma
Author: Yahtzee
Fandom: X-Men (especially X-Men: First Class)
Summary: Written for the following prompt: “Erik dies, or finds a reversey-time mutant, or a magical time travelling device, and wakes up in the past. This time, though, it’s before he ever met Charles - in fact, it’s before his mother died.

He can save his mother that one time (thanks to his mastery over powers carrying back), but what does Erik do after that? Does he stick around, or escape and run to find Charles again (and hope everything doesn’t go wrong)?”

He opens his eyes, and he is Erik Lehnsherr. He is hardly more than a boy. And he is walking through the mud on his way to the gates of Auschwitz.

No. Not this again. Never did Erik dream he could go this far back. He cannot possibly endure reliving this –

“Come, Erik. It will be all right.” His mother’s arm closes around his shoulders, and Erik looks up at her in wonder.

She is here. She is here. His mother is alive, smiling at him, holding him – and on his other side is Papa, dignified despite his rags and hunger. No matter what comes, Erik knows it has already been worth it just to see them again. “I love you,” he says quickly. “I love you both, and I always will.”

Doesnt Says: I am rec’ing this because I am a sap. In my head I call this fic “The Magneto Peggy-Sue fic in which he is in love with Xavier and finds inner peace.”

Title: Tim Drake is a Homosexual
Author: glitterandlube
Fandom: DC Comics
Warnings: Damien
Summary: exactly what it says on the tin

“Also, Tim is gay, did you hear?”

Bart stares at Kon, and stage-whispers, “Kon, Tim is sitting right there.”

“Yeah, I know. He came out and he’s sharing the special news with everyone. Respect his announcement by acting shocked, jackass.”

“Oh! OH! My god. I did not know. At all.”

Tim mumbles, “Fuck my life,” very, very quietly

…

“You are not an incubus.” He waves his hand over Tim and adds, “You appear to simply have gained the ability to alter emotions into lust.”

Tim tries to pass out again, but that doesn’t work either. Batman says, “I am sure this could be useful,” but he doesn’t look happy. Jason Todd leans over to look down at Tim, and he says, “Little brother, you have all the luck.”

Tim stares at him, horrified. Dick pushes Jason out of the way, and says, “It’ll be okay, Tim. We deal with it.” He strokes Tim’s forehead, and Tim relaxes a little bit.

Jason says, “Yeah, I mean Dick has been able to change other emotions into lust his whole life, and it’s worked out okay for him.”

Title: Never Any Prologue
Author: odditycollector
Fandom: Doctor Who
Words: 676
Summary: It’s the first day of her new life, after all - she’s burned her old journal and scattered the ashes. It’s only right that anything could happen, today. mtf!River Song.

This stranger knows her name - her real, *true* name - but that’s an impossible thing. She hasn’t told anyone, yet. There’s been no one to tell.

River’s often wished that the people around her could simply look through the young man she presents as and see her for who she really is. It’s more terrifying than her fantasies had suggested, like the seconds between jumping off the Mountain and waiting for the wind to catch against her wingsuit.

Title: Cheating Destiny

Author: Sarah1281

Fandom: Smallville

Summary: When a freshman Clark wakes up twenty-five years into the future and can’t reach his parents or Pete, he turns to Lex to help him figure it out. What a wonderful opportunity this is to correct certain aspects of their past…

“The first question I suppose is whether or not we all believe Clark’s story,” Lex began.

“Which story?” Lana questioned. “The part about being an alien or the part about him time travelling?”

Doesnt Says: This story is hilarious. Every other line young!Lex says make me laugh. Other than that, it’s not supposed to be terribly serious.

Title: Loki/Darcy Kinkmeme made them do it

Author: lunik_the_bard … or possibly Loki.

Fandom: The Avengers, also meta

Pairing: Loki/Darcy, mostly gen, but pre-romance if you squint

Prompt: When the Avengers RPF kinkmeme happens, Darcy is all over that shit.  So, it turns out, is Loki.

“You know,” Loki says, letting the rueful smile loose, “even though I do love the malicious little kick to be had in prompting Thor/Coulson non-con… I can’t stand the Thor/Loki ship. Oh.” He looks suddenly horrified when a thought occurs to him. “Oh, you don’t think there’s a portmanteau couple name for us, is there?” The horror melts to a grimace. “Thorki sounds like the kind of name you’d give to a pet you didn’t love very much.”

Darcy can’t help the snort of laughter, or quite resist pretending to mask it with a fake cough. “Sorry, dude. Thorki. It’s terrible, but fandom moves in mysterious ways.”

Doesnt says: Oh my god, guys. This is genius. I can’t even. My alternative summary is this: Darcy is one of us. So is Loki.

Title: Dreams

Author: airgeer

Rating: PG-13

Warnings: Glee

Word count: 3000

Summary: Finn Hudson has a superpower that no one knows about, even him: the Retcon. It doesn’t really make things better.

Notes: Inspired by Glee’s…interesting continuity, and in particular by Kurt cheerily waving Rachel off to New York at the end of 3x22.

Finn sometimes wished that he could change things that had already happened, or make people see what they were doing wrong. All he wanted was for everyone to be happy.
