Summary
Clint could never be afraid of her, not her. Her power, maybe, a little. But not her heart.
He was definitely afraid for her.
Her powers were so different, so close to another realm, they were easy to misunderstand, easy for other people to back away from, or lash out at. If someone didn’t know Wanda Maximoff for who she really was, it could be easy to see no one but a freak. And that was the last thing Clint wanted for her.(Because although the show was good, they did a massive disservice to Wanda by cutting Clint Barton and family out of the picture.)

Summary
Here is a very short story from the War:
“If the canned mutants don’t get you, the canned rations will,” said one of the old soldiers to one of the new recruits. She’d been a new recruit herself the day before yesterday, but in her first battle her timeline had been injured. When the medics had reset it, they’d fixed it so she joined up in her youth, giving the army seven hundred more years of her service.
Here are some more stories from the War:

Supper Table by CapGirlCanuck for starryeyedchar

Summary
He’s checking the chain that hooks onto the bell over the door, making sure it will ring if anyone comes needing something from the Havoc Family General Store after hours, and is about to put the latch on when he sees a man coming up the porch steps.
The warm evening sun casts Roy Mustang’s long shadow to one side, but when his eyes meet Jean’s through the glass, he nods and smiles.
“You’re almost late,” Jean greets him.
“When did that become a crime, Lieutenant?” the Colonel banters back.
“When it’s my ma’s cooking you’re going to be late for.”Or: more sleepy, sentimental, semi-angsty ramblings from my weary brain, because I thought Jean deserved some space too. Inspired by The Meaning of Hyacinths (Roy Mustang Can't Catch A Break AU)

Summary
Maes jerks, instinctively ducks at the sound of the gunshot. But he is standing in his own house, and when he turns, sees the corner of the table through the doorway, hears Elicia’s laugh, his heart stops.
He presses the phone receiver hard against his ear. “Roy? Roy, are you there? Answer me! Roy!”
A ragged sort of gasp reaches Maes.
BANG!
Another gunshot from the other end of the line, and this time it is coupled with a terrible wrenching cry.
“Roy!!!”Or all Maes wants is to save his best friend. And he won't let this nightmare/daydream/whatever-the-hell-it-is end until he does. No matter how many times he has to do it over.

Summary
Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang 2022, Art # 51.
It was the tenth year since the end of the War of Wrath. The tenth year of the civil war that had followed it.
O Elbereth! Sing now the rage of the sons of Fëanor,
Dark and murderous, that cost the Noldor
Incalculable pain, pitched countless souls
Of heroes into the dark halls of Mandos
And left their bodies turn to ashes and bones
Cursed and forsaken, as Manwë’s will was done.
Beginning with the clash between the Dark Vala –
Melkor, the Black Foe – and Fëanor the fire-spirit.A story of Maglor and Daeron, of siege and of plague, of Celebrimbor’s lonely forge and Círdan’s iron will, of music, and perhaps, of redemption.

Summary
While Lucilla hopes to finally bring her relationship with Maximus to another, more intimate level, forces are at work that want to destroy the young couple's happiness. And the consequences could be catastrophic.
This series is a canon-compliant prequel to Ridley Scott's "Gladiator". Each part will take you to another point in the three main characters' past, so they can be read separately - but I strongly recommend reading them chronologically, especially with this one, since the year 171 AD marks the critical turning point in Lucilla and Maximus' relation; in every aspect.

Sometimes-- really, most of the time-- healing takes a lot more work than just a touch and an incantation. Some hurts can’t be undone in a day.
