Summary
Joe Liebgott’s got enough on his plate—grades, detention, keeping his kid sister out of trouble, and oh yeah, being Spider-Man. Balancing high school with a side of crime-fighting vigilantism is hard enough without David Webster, the quiet, well-dressed overachiever from AP English, suddenly taking an interest in both him and the mysterious vigilante swinging around the city.
Webster’s supposed to be doing a piece for the school paper. Joe’s supposed to be keeping a low profile. Neither of them is very good at doing what they’re supposed to.
Or: That AU where Spider-Man is a pissed-off burnout with too many responsibilities, and the school’s most uptight honors student accidentally falls for him… twice. Both literally and figuratively.

Summary
It was quiet for just a moment. Then the creature screamed. Its cry sounded like an air raid siren and a car crash combined. As it shrieked, people all around began screaming as well in a horrific cacophony of unbridled terror. The monster's body began to move in an unnatural way, jerky yet fluid, deliberate. Its eyes scanned past the entire stadium: the people in the audience, the challengers on the pitch, the Gym Leaders and the Chairman before coming to a rest on Bede.
Or
Something is turning the Pokémon of Galar into horrific monsters when they Dynamax. The Galar gym leaders try to find out what is going on and how to stop it, but they soon find themselves contending with a much greater foe. Also Bede catches feelings at the worst possible time.
ATTENTION: this fic is hereby abandoned. I've lost motivation and I just don't want to keep dragging it out.

Summary
Down in Louisiana, there are houses humans have built to stand over the swamp land. As years pass, the earth grows and changes, cracking through the pastel paint and ripping through the decorative crowning and molding, leaving hollow skeletons to line each block.
Wealhtheow is much like those houses. A beauty pageant princess, a beloved southern bell. An unclaimed, empty shell.
Like all else, she is reclaimed.

Summary
Hermann, ever predictable and safe Hermann, frowns at him with faux derision but does carefully lower himself to sit beside Newt. If Newt reaches out, places clumsy helping hands, it’s in the misting hours and those are not hours for words—so they will not speak on it. I’m never going to be able to not touch him, Newt thinks, deliriously. I’ll die, if I don’t touch him. Because there is no quiet—no quiet to Monica’s notes like five hundred drunkenly thrown darts, and no quiet to the manic frenzy of his mind, hands shaking because the meds make him fuzzy and saving the world means he needs an alert mind, and no quiet with Hermann who finds him too loud, and too much, and everything, everything he has left after this is all over. I’ll die, his mind repeats, helpfully.
