Summary
A Hank McCoy/OC romance
From the outside looking in, Wendy Collins had led a pretty normal life: She taught beauty school, had her own apartment, & she was looking forward to her upcoming wedding... But that's because her & her parents had done a pretty good job at hiding the fact that she was a mutant since she was 12. After a strange accident in which her powers were publicly exposed, however, her life becomes anything but normal. Luckily Xavier's Institute was happy to recruit her, but life at the institute presents its own challenges.
Hank McCoy, for all his genius, walked a path of poorly-fated good intentions. He had a tendency to wreck even the best of his plans: From lab experiments, to time travel to relationships, maybe it was just time to give it a rest. Being large, monstrous & covered in blue fur certainly didn't help things. Society tells us that being "normal" is the height of propriety, but what one does one do when being normal is no longer an option? And what if someone else is falling in love with the things that make us different?
(Based primarily on the animated series with some of the comic lore thrown in. Set in sort of an AU, so I could work with all the characters.)Bookmarked by Av0cad0

Summary
There’s safety in numbers, but far more safety in a dominant scent.
River is single, and won’t let it stop her enjoying her full social schedule - university is for making friends and memories! As an omega, however, she’s well aware that the city’s dangerous areas pose more of a risk to her than they do her friends. Especially her friends with partners who scent mark on them.
With little to lose, she starts researching alpha scent perfumes. Probably bogus, definitely overpriced, and boasting long restock wait times. But worth a try. Right before purchase, she manages to accidentally get a free trial of a real alpha’s scent… all over her throat.

Summary
Four months after Voldemort's destruction and the end of The War, Charlie's adrift and confused, his life seemingly in tatters. On a most unusual -and seemingly pointless- assignment in New Zealand, amidst a sea of liquor and one-night stands, he stumbles into something most lovely and profound, if only he can handle it properly. Unfortunately, he also runs afoul of something darker and more sinister than anything he'd ever encountered before.

Summary
It's the mid 1970's and Severus Snape has just been signed up against his will for an international Wizarding pen-pal service. Initially uninterested in the whole thing, he begins to turn to the American girl writing to him more and more as he faces increasingly terrifying abuse at school and home as well as ostracization from his peers. As a friendship begrudgingly begins it brings with it a hope for the future, comfort, and more than its fair share of problems. In this fic we'll examine how Severus Snape managed to live an almost normal life, completely in secret, even when everyone around him in the Wizarding World sought only to use he and his life towards their own ends.
Death or Glory will follow Severus Snape's entire life through canon and the lives of other characters beyond it. Consequently this fic is going to be LONG. I mean concerningly long. We'll be here for a while but it'll be a good time. Updates frequently.

Summary
Seventeen-year-old Maeve Jennings or MJ of Earth-138, a talented violinist from an affluent family, gracefully dances to the rhythm of high society. Yet, beneath her poised demeanor, Maeve longs for a melody that resonates with her rebellious heart.
Enter Hobie Brown, a spirited and enigmatic young man with a rebellious streak that matches his wild hair. As the lead guitarist of a punk band, Hobie electrifies the air with his soulful melodies, his fingers dancing along the fretboard. Hobie thrives on pushing boundaries and defying conventions with a stage presence that captivates audiences and ignites a spark within Maeve's sheltered heart.
Bound by secrecy and an unyielding desire for freedom, Hobie's worlds collide when he meets Maeve during an underground gig.
When fate brings Maeve and Hobie together, their worlds collide in a crescendo of passion and shared melodies. Drawn to Hobie's unapologetic authenticity, Maeve finds herself irresistibly pulled in to the world of punk music, leather jackets, and nonconformity. Their melodies intertwining like a symphony of opposites. Maeve's delicate violin harmonizes with Hobie's electric guitar, creating a passionate duet that transcends their differences.Bookmarked by Av0cad0
