Light breaking the horizon, bloody footsteps in the sand by CandidCuriosity

Summary
He swallows the blood pouring down the back of his throat. His nose thoroughly broken. Gagging at the metallic taste filling his mouth he tries not to throw up as it would most certainly make him pass out. If not because of his ribs, cracked and broken, because of the blood loss making his vision blurry and his thoughts slowing.
The man at the centre of Hitoshi’s vision moves towards him again, and the purple headed teen closes his eyes with the intention to blink, but they stay closed and in a moment too long he feels his resolve waiver and ebb out.
To be a hero was the only dream Shinsou Hitoshi ever had. To save kids on the street, to save the girls walking through the night, to prove to the world that he could. But that turns out to be a lot harder than he thought it would.

A shadow moves to his right. A flash of red in the corner of his eye. by CandidCuriosity

Summary
The shadow was there out of habit, out of conscious and very real fear of failure. Habit because he knows that there is no one there. But he can never be certain.
The flash of red could be so many different things. A flash of red accompanied by yellow, and green, his past and ending. A flash of red, his sins, goals, and retribution?
But no, he knows what that flash of red means, because if he catches it long enough it will turn green.Jason is bleeding out on the dirty floor of his second to worst safe-house, in the third worst part of Gotham. He has to make a choice. Seek help or succumb to the darkness always moving closer in the corner of his eye.

Summary
Grimmjow pushes his tongue up into his gums. Harder, harder–
Pain kicks through his face, throbs so hard he flinches.
"Hey," Kurosaki asks, "you okay?"
Grimmjow expects blood or spit when he scrubs his knuckles across his mouth, scowling, but there's nothing. "Fine."
(Something is wrong.)

“As far as I can tell,” you say, “there is currently one person in here that could hope to know what the fuck that feels like, even just a little. He also has very beautiful feet, and he’s very good at killing things, which are like, my two biggest kinks.”

Kakashi's Uncle Sukea is kind of weird, but he's better than nobody. He supposes. He reads porn, he's late all the time, and he's made it his mission to be annoying and uncannily observant.
But Uncle Sukea is there. So that's something.

He had considered travel in his retirement plans by NilokSilver

Summary
Maybe he shouldn’t have pushed one of his more volatile students quite so far while playing as Sukea. One moment, he was enjoying a final game of teasing his face before passing the Hokage hat to Naruto; the next, he was in the past, draped in oversized clothes that now felt more like a tent than an outfit.
It wasn’t ideal, but he’d survived worse. His plan was simple: step into his old life, lay low, and figure out a way back to his proper timeline, even if it was the long way. Except... it seemed he hadn’t displaced his younger self. Instead, there were two Kakashis now, and they had to adapt.
The younger Kakashi, sharp-eyed and prickly as ever, clearly wasn’t thrilled by the intrusion. But older Kakashi wasn’t too worried. After all, he’d survived his students—adorable little brats who’d outgrown their charm and turned into forces of nature. Compared to them, his younger self was manageable.
Prickly or not, this kid might even be fun to mess with while Kakashi figured out how to navigate this unexpected hiccup in his retirement plan.
