Summary
Ajax remembers very little about the Abyss beyond his first month there. Oh well, there are bigger things to worry about—like being sold into the Fatui.
—
“I sort of had a nasty confrontation in Natlan during my diplomatic tenure—got poisoned by my subordinates who happened to be spies—nearly died—and got reassigned to be a diplomat to Liyue because Her Highness doesn’t believe in vacation time,” Childe lists. “Not necessarily in that order. I haven’t even seen my siblings in years.”
“So work,” Keqing simplifies instantly, not wanting to touch that madness with a seven-foot pole.
“What are the Tsaritsa’s intentions for you coming to Liyue.”
“Honestly?” Childe hums. “No damn clue. I mean, she dumped me in Natlan for over half a decade—then boom! Out of nowhere, I get a reassignment when I’ve been asking for one for nearly five-fucking years.”
“I fucking hate Natlan—three out of ten—would not recommend.”

The Bamboo Scholar by Mayvn
Fandom 人渣反派自救系统 - 墨香铜臭 | The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù
16 Oct 2021
Summary
Slender in form, and elegant in face. The man was strong, modest, and humble as he stood up for justice and protected those that couldn’t protect themselves. He was truly the manifestation of the noble bamboo.
Shen Yuan wrinkled his nose in disgust. Who the hell is writing this crap about him?!
---
A 3-part series (plus 2 stand-alone extras, so technically a 5-parter) where Shen Yuan dies in Jinlan and awakens as a young Shen Jiu, calming down enough in his second go at it to make decisions that accidentally mold and inspire the people around him to be better, healthier people.
Except for Qiu Jianluo. And the Old Palace Master. And Wu Yanzi. And … um … I’m going to need to make a list.
---
Part 1 – SY cheats his way through SJ’s Qiu Manor arc
Part 2 – SY has way too much fun as a cultivator at Cang Qiong, pre-LBH
Part 3 – SY pretends to be a responsible adult as people call him ShizunFuture Liushen, Moshang, other possible relationships

Summary
The lights go out. Steve keeps his eyes fixed just left of the thing, can just barely make out a shoulder and sort-of head in the light of the moon, and tries to swallow back the sickening feeling of being hunted. He wants to run for his house but he can’t. He can’t, because if he takes his eyes off the thing for even a second, he won’t know where it is, and that’s scarier than seeing it.
But then- then Steve’s vision blurs for just a moment too long, and when he blinks away the tears and looks, it’s gone.
Steve lunges for the house doors. When the patio lights flicker back on, the poolside is empty, and Steve Harrington is missing. No one notices.
Or: Steve Harrington gets dragged into the Upside Down instead of Barb Holland. Someone else comes out.Series

SWEET! In a "omg-they're-gonna-die" kind of way. The potential of this AU is limitless! Anyways:
- Steve is the best babysitter and even the Upside Down can't stop him. Will "Munchkin" Byers, ugh. I died a little bit on the inside;
- Scout Steve? Jewish Steve? Dyslexic Steve? This story is the best!
- Monster Hunter Trio starring Nancy Drew, Jonathan "I'm Depressed and my Little Brother is Missing" Byers and Barbara "Guess I'll Keep the One Non Suicidal BrainCell" Holland;
- Hopper is a serial adopter, I don't make the rules -

Summary
Having saved the world, the Hargreeves find themselves in a dramatically different 2019, with no money, no place to go, and a Ben-shaped hole in the middle of them.
The only thing left to do is rebuild their lives from the ground up.
...Or fall headfirst into a new adventure and hope everything else sorts itself out.

"So, what? Are there other versions of ourselves somewhere out there?""I doubt it. I think what's happened is that we've created a temporal paradox- this is our original timeline, and we exist with the same memories that we've always had, but the rest of the world moved on like we never left 1963."
Five scrubbed a hand over his face, looking deeply weary. "We've essentially become castaways in time."
They were all silent in the wake of that pronouncement.

Summary
“What do you plan to do now that you have found the Avatar’s bison? Keep him locked in our new apartment? Should I go put on a pot of tea for him?”
-Uncle Iroh, Lake Laogai, Season 2 Episode 17Zuko unfolded a small, fuzzy green blanket and tossed it over Appa’s head like a hood. “And this is Appa’s favorite blanket, it’s too small for him, obviously, but he really seems to like it and—”
Appa licked Zuko, knocking off his hat and leaving him dripping. Zuko quickly grabbed his hat and slammed it back on his head but the damage was done—the Avatar had recognized him.
“I can’t believe it,” Aang breathed, staring at Zuko wide-eyed.
Zuko stared back, trying to decide if he could make the jump out the window. The drop would be pretty steep, but he really didn’t want to fight off the Avatar in their new apartment with its nice furniture and Uncle’s tea collection in the corner and—
“Appa found me a firebending teacher!”

This story is hilarious and Zuko is precious. So:
- Canon-divergent: Zuko has his existential crisis wayyy sooner and starts befriending every animal in Ba Sing Se. He may no longer be the Crown Prince of the Fire Nation but he sure is a Disney Princess;
- Appa is the Zuko Protection Squad's Vice President (the President being Uncle) and keeps recruiting;
- Kuei's 1st impression of Lee: oh what a charming peasant! / Zuko's 1st impression of the Earth King: Is... is that a joke? Am I having another fever dream? I /feel/ I'm having another fever dream. He can't be real, right? RIGHT???
- I too would like a turtleduck blanket. -

I have no words to tell how much I love this work. So:
- Dissociation is a thing and Five's having a field day;
- Diego: tfw your seemingly crazy brother turns out to be a wannabe fortune teller making foreboding predictions left and right;
- Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind - or forgotten. It AlSO means shARING A FLAT ughuhgu I love them so much;
- I see Luther and I cry over character growth. Wth? This is so good?
- Beautifully written. Five is tearing at the seams and it hurts but, like, in a beautiful/heart-wrenching way. -

Bookmarker's Notes
This story is so good?? The plot so interesting? You start the story thinking 'oh, 6K words of Obi-Wan being reincarnated, that's nice!' only to reach the end, feeling overwhelmed because 'daaammn, the potential of this story is limitless' and 'is the galaxy even ready for Kenori?' This story is such a gift! So:
- a look into Dathomirian culture;
- hello Wild, you're my new favorite;
- "Can I call you brother?" ughufhugf
- I stan one Night Crew so much. (Btw, is Dooku even aware he just became the weird grandpa of 5 ultra-competent Dathomirians?)
If there's a continuation, I'd like to think it could be summed up with the sentence "That one time I formed a commando with my former enemies (not that they know that), went on a road trip with them and freed the galaxy." -

Summary
There were a few things Jango wanted-The Jetii destroyed, Death Watch annihilated, his son to grow up strong and happy, and his soul mate whose mark stained his skin.
He had resigned himself that in order to get the first he might have to give up the last. That was until he met his soul mate and realized he might not be quite as willing to give his soul mate up as he had thought.
Getting everything he wanted would be near impossible. That won't stop Jango from trying.

Okay, that one is a good one!... Scratch that, this fic is so good that I'm ready to dream about it! So:
- We stan one space cowboy and his army of clones. True Mandalorians are just /that/ awesome. And, yeah, Jango will fight you if you dare say that the clones aren't True Mandalorians. (Can't wait to see more of their culture tbh)
- Obi-Wan, always thinking about other people's well being. Cinnamon roll. Jango would kill for you (- which, okay, we don't judge).
- Anakin's a trainwreck who needs to be called out. Thankfully, Jango's here. ("Refund!" Anakin cries out as his pretty good week starts going downhill. One hour ago, everything was fine, his mind filled with pictures of Padmé in her white clothes and the distant echoes of his master's voice telling him about the birds and the bees. Now… well. "Refund," he repeats, pretending not to notice the honourless bounty hunter's glare.)
- May I have one revolution, please? Why? Yoda, that's why. -

Okay, that one is hard to describe (what with only having 1 chapter) but deserves so much love.
- "This place…it was a monument to what once was. Peter was locked inside, to be Tony’s relic that had to be preserved" or that moment when you stumble upon a beautiful passage and you die a little bit on the inside.
- Peter doesn't feel good. I feel ya, buddy.
- “You don’t love by association": that one hurts, not gonna lie
- Can we talk about a protection squad? Idk but I love how everyone acknowledges how important Tony was to Peter.
- I was promised a dimension travel? Sign me right away!-> Really looking forward what's going to happen next!

- Did you see the tags? A dream coming true. I need to see Nico being loved gdi!
- No, but, really. Is Harry&Cedric&Nico the new Golden Trio? I know it's unlikely to happen. Still. It'd be downright awesome.
- So much potential, man! How is Nico gonna adapt to the Wizard World? Are the others going to make an appearance? I really want to see Hermione's POV! -

“Are you an angel?” Anakin’s small hands came up to cup his smooth cheeks, blue eyes wide with wonder.
“No, Ani,” Blinking past the moisture threatening to flood his eyes, Obi-Wan laughed and in a wild moment of poor decision-making, pressed a loving kiss to Anakin’s forehead.
But I swear I will watch over you like one if the Force gave me a second chance hummed unspoken between their new bond.

Anakin is a little shit who loves Obi (understandable) and will fight you if... well, if you do anything with Obi-Wan without him.
Obi-Wan is a mess but a productive one so...

"Close it. Close the breach." Zarkon locked his jaw, the order firm. Honerva looked distinctly displeased, but didn't say anything.
Alfor crossed his arms in protest. "But there's so much more we don't know about it."
The breach was sealed anyways.

Things turned out differently between the Paladins of Old. But ten thousand years later, the universe is still plunged in turmoil and suppression—just not at the Galra's hands. Though some things aren't different at all: Voltron is still the universe's only hope. However, that's a little harder to accomplish when the Paladins of Voltron lay divided on different ends of a war.
AU where Zarkon doesn't turn evil due to quintessence poisoning, and history turns out a little bit different.
