Chou_0’s hoard for sleepless nights 🌸

Stuff that makes my sleepless nights worth it.
Fanfiction that I consider memorable, original, inspiring, or that just grabbed my attention and i couldn’t put it down.
There is something for everyone here, sweet, happy, wholesome, angsty, sad (with HAPPY ENDINGS!) with pairings or without.
There are MANY fandoms in this black hole of a collection (I read pretty much anything that catches my attention) with as many diverse warnings, so do please take care to read the tags.
I’m always after something new to read.
*this collection will NEVER be private
**With AO3 new policy on collections, I’m adding the ‘new’ work on the bookmarks IF the work does not have enabled the option to add to collections.

Summary
The uncomfortable truth is that Harry can understand why he did it, all of it. He understands perfectly that there have always been bigger concerns than one lonely, misused boy (or two) at stake, that there is a Greater Good here the man has always been striving toward since longer than Harry's been alive. He gets it.
That doesn't make it hurt any less. It doesn't mean that Harry can forgive him either.
It doesn't mean that he can take back the way it's already changed his relationship with the man he thought was supposed to be his prophesied enemy. Or that he would want to now even if he could.
Their destiny is not to destroy each other as he once believed, although it still could be. It's more complicated than that. Their destiny is to make their own destiny, together, or be torn apart by it. He knows which one he prefers.

Summary
After his little brother is bundled back to Snezhnaya, Childe makes good on his promise to the traveller and takes the first boat out of Liyue Harbor. Any sense of homecoming lasts about as long as an uncooked steak in front of Xiangling, however, when his boat sinks, grounding him back in the mainland.
It's just as well, because the next morning, a body is found in the Northland Bank.
A visit from a fellow Harbinger reveals a far more insidious plot than anything Childe could concoct with a god of the vortex and twenty minutes without supervision. The murders aren’t limited to the one Bank. They’ve been trailing down the Liyue border, getting closer and closer to the city. The Tsaritsa has a new mission for him: to figure out who, or what is targeting Fatui forces.Against his best wishes, Childe is forced to see Zhongli again at the morgue. It becomes clear that he’s going to need a guide, and Childe resolves to quash his pride, and their differences to request his help to navigate Liyue and solve the case.

Summary
14,000,605 universes and only one win in the time Doctor Strange had to look.
This is not the universe where they won against Thanos. Sitting in the ruins of their battlefield, knowing everything he swore to protect, his universe was coming to an end, Stephen makes a choice.
Sacrificing his body for a spell, he takes the only souls he knows can orchestrate a victory back in time. A spell created by his own hands, fueled with his sacrifice, he catapults himself and Tony Stark back to the moments of their birth.
With their reality at stake, they need to create a chance for their time-line to win. After all, their universe wasn't the one that won.

Summary
In which, there is an alternative universe where Todoroki Enji didn't get to marry Rei but got stuck with Gojo instead...and yes, Enji somehow ends up being the one to give birth to their four beautiful children.
Note: Each chapter is kind of a stand alone but they are all interconnected. Kind of like a slice of life sort of thing.

Well, this is not what I expected, still not too surprising. I've seen too many of those self inserts and Isekai to be surprised. Still, how does one survive in the world of Pokémon? (Self Insert)

Summary
Shen Qingqiu finds a sought-after artifact in a mission, one he cannot figure its use out — that is, until the Qing Jing Peak Lord finds himself in a cat’s body. Not knowing how to turn back to his human form and abhorring the thought of any of his martial brothers seeing him this way, Shen Qingqiu runs to the bamboo groves in hopes of figuring it out by himself, only to be found by one of his disciples, Shen Yuan, who has no clue the fluffy white cat in front of him is his dreaded Shizun.
Why Shen Yuan would vent about his life to a cat is beyond Shen Qingqiu’s understanding. Why Shen Qingqiu would keep coming back to listen is also beyond his understanding.
