Summary
Shikamaru Nara.
In one universe he becomes the 7th Hokage’s advisor and lives a long and, for the most, a happy life, before dying surrounded by family and friends at an impressively old age for the Shinobi he was.
In another universe however, his life was cut short. He had just turned 20, just recently having gotten married and found out he would become a father. He dies cold and alone on the battlefield on a mission outside the village that was supposed to be easy. His last thoughts are those of regret.
———————————————
Meanwhile in another world a new mother cries as she holds the unmoving body of her newborn son. Until suddenly her little son regains color and flutters his eyes open for the first(?) time.

Summary
The only reason I’m alive is because I’m too much of a coward to slit my throat and finally put an end to it all.
Coward.
All I do is drown in self pity all day. Down a few bottles too many and play with the thought of drinking something stronger. And to drink just a bit too much…

Shane is depressed and an alcoholic. Do you really need to know more?

Summary
Gift exchange -> Sweet Memories
Request by -> @Rennll
——————————————
Sometimes you need to get away from the loud and fast and get back to the slow and quiet.
Just for a moment.
Just long enough to tank energy for another busy week to come.
Just enough to make you feel calm and collected till next time.
Just so you can drown in long forgotten memories of a past you never expirenced.
Or
Mitsuki goes to the woods and paints by the river to tank some energy aaaand of course, to receive the well deserved comfort by good ol‘ Mother Nature! Plus. To remember all the memories in that magical place. That may or may not aren’t even Mitsuki‘s.

A Ninja in The FBI? by WhyDoIStillExist

12 Oct 2024
Summary
[Both names start with S and both are smart. But while Spencer throws himself into work at the start of his journey, Shikamaru does the opposite.
Hence I decided I wanted to throw Shikamaru into the “real world” as Spencer!This series will be decided into at least two works. The first one is up and finished until further notice. It’s basically only like a layout. A prequel if you will.]

Summary
He opens his eyes, and stares up at the canopy of the four poster bed he's in. It takes a second, his vision is a bit blurry, but it clears up quick enough.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
Four seconds.
Part of Jason keeps the count going, while the rest of him kind of just...seizes. Because he knows this canopy. He knows the the posts it's attached to. He—fuck—he knows the notch in the bottom left post he'd put in it when he'd stolen one of Bruce's batarangs when he was twelve and thrown it around like the stupid kid he'd been.
This was Jason's room.
Or, the one where Jason gets zapped with magic, wakes up in his teenage body, and decides to let the timeline know exactly how fucked it is. He also becomes the president of the Tim Drake Appreciation Club.

Summary
A very late Supporters' Special request for GriffinRoar21: "Something set in this universe if possible where Bruce is hit with the feels over Dami and Jason and the boy he lost being basically a father, (maybe Damian looking to Jason for guidance with something instinctively and Jason speaking and responding so casually as a father/parent figure) and how that also hurts as the missed opportunity to be both Jason and Dami's dad."

Summary
Tim's dad is dead, killed by a boomerang to the chest, and Tim is an orphan now. He knows Bruce would adopt him if needed but he couldn't possibly impose himself on the Wayne's more than he already has. It's okay though, because he has a plan for this, he just needs someone to play the role of his estranged "Uncle Eddie".
Except... the guy he hires is weirdly concerned about his well being and Tim can't figure out why.
Meanwhile, Jason Todd is forced to reevaluate his plans for his debut as Red Hood, because, as it turns out, his replacement is a suicidal idiot who can't be trusted to stay out of trouble.
OR
Tim Drake fails to recognize Jason Todd, back from the dead, and hires him to be his Uncle Eddie to avoid getting adopted by Batman. Somehow this ruins everyone's plans.
