Summary
Malia discovers karaoke. Everyone is on board and delighted for the most part.
Except for Liam whose life blows up somehow. It may have to do with the kind of songs Theo sings.
This is not a songfic.
OR
In the months following the conflict with the Anuk-Ite and the hunters, Liam and Theo become close friends.
They both grow up. Theo gets his life together with Liam’s help, and Liam tries to be a good friend and a good person all around.
Liam’s affection for Theo grows into something more, except he is mostly unaware until Theo’s song choices during the pack’s karaoke nights show Theo in a different light.
Things escalate during a full moon, and Liam tries to make sense of his feelings and his friendship with Theo.
A lot happens in the next eight days.

Klaus sat up and pointed at Five. “Now I know what’s wrong with you!”
It seemed Allison couldn’t resist that setup. “Is this going to be an exhaustive list? Don’t know if we have time for that.”
“Shushush, you two.” Klaus flapped one hand dismissively in the direction of Allison and then the fireplace (Ben?) while maintaining his dramatic point with the other. He announced, “It’s skin hunger!”
The room fell so quiet Diego could practically hear Five’s spine creak as he slowly turned to hit Klaus with the flattest stare possible.
After recovering from that disturbing pronouncement, Diego had to point out, “He’s a temporal assassin, not a cannibal.” No response. “Right?”
Five pinched the bridge of his nose and heaved a put-upon sigh.

I would call this “Siblings Semi-Accidentally Form a Support Group for Survivors of Reginald Hargreeves’ Parenting (Plus Former-Timeline Ben Who Did Not Survive But Is Still Invited)” but then I’d never be able to remember the title.

Killing a spider doesn’t destroy all its webs, and the Handler’s death didn’t disarm all her machinations. Now it seems the Hargreeves siblings’ alternate future timeline misadventures have come back to bite them.
Why couldn’t they just be metaphorically haunted by the past like normal dysfunctional families?

The runner-up title was "Two Can Play at Timeline Shenanigans (But They Probably Shouldn't)".

“That’s got to get annoying, though.”
“What, Five’s murder hobby?” Klaus waved off Helen’s concern. “Nah, he’s really cut back lately.” He pressed a palm to his chest to emphasize his earnestness. “We’re all very proud.”
According to Ben’s entirely uncalled-for sigh, he’d taken exception to something about that statement.
Helen looked a touch nonplussed. “What? No. No, I mean the entourage of… unstable spirits.”
...o0O0o0O0o0O0o0O0o0O0o...
Ben has more success in the role of Ghost Medium than that of Emotional Support Ghost, Klaus comes to some realizations and promptly buries them in a dark unused corner of his mind, and Helen finishes her unfinished business.
Takes place a couple of days after “The Day That Was Redux”.

No one will love you as you are by StarWarsGirl1989 for LadyKnightShade

Summary
Everyone thought that the mutants of Marvel were a works of fiction, no way that they were real but then people worn with superhuman abilities started to pop up and now normal humans have a common enemy to unite against.
That's Stevie Michaels' reality, it's non fiction. All her life she's been told that no one will love her as she was and she had accepted it but that would change one night...
The Ninja Turtles in this fiction are influenced by various versions—TMNT 1990, 2003, 2012, Bayverse, and IDW but mostly Bayverse—but they have been aged forward. They are fully adults!

Summary
She is Commander Shepard, and this is her favorite coffee shop on the Citadel. One day while on shore leave, Shepard has a fateful encounter with a drell, one Tannor Nuara. They keep bumping into each other, and eventually form a friendship. This friendship, in turn, becomes something more. Are they destined to be together, or will fate keep them apart in the war to come?
Follows the events of the Mass Effect series. As the story progresses, we take a look at the trauma Shepard has accumulated and her reactions to it, as well as her coping skills (or lack thereof).
Rated E for eventual smut. Contains game dialogue. I own nothing from BioWare.
Smut chapters marked with *, because sometimes you just want some spice, and I respect that. Live your dream.

Shyness tickles Shouto's cheeks, but when Katsuki tilts his hand this way and that with little rhyme or reason, he realizes where his gaze fixates: the ring. Shouto had nearly forgotten about it himself, but Katsuki has a way of doing that to him.
If he leans more towards ambivalence over the ring and all it represents, then Katsuki makes up for that by loathing it, and it's been that way for as long as they've known each other.

Summary
Akina Murasame was born to a legacy of contradiction—her mother a Hidden Cloud defector, her father an ANBU captain who gave his life protecting the Fourth Hokage.
She has always stood on the knife’s edge between loyalty and suspicion. Between healing and breaking.
Between memory and forgetting.
And Konoha hasn’t forgotten.
It remembers the massacre. Remembers that she stood beside Itachi Uchiha until the night he destroyed everything.
The day she left the ANBU was supposed to be the day she started healing. She traded missions for medicine, kunai for chakra scalpels, thinking maybe the hospital would quiet the ghosts that the mask could not.
But ghosts don’t care where you work.
And as Akina struggles to piece herself back together, there’s one man who keeps finding the cracks.
Kakashi Hatake—the lightning to her storm. The one man who sees her for who she is. And the one man who might break her all the same.

Ok hey guyssssss, so this isn’t quite a sequel, i mean i guess it could be but it’s kind like a filler. So this is gonna be a 3 book series so this takes place in between the first and second book. And this first chapter is Post-Finale of the first book, so basically right after the last chapter. I just kinda wanted to end the first book cleanly, because this kinda opens up a few different things. It’s just for fun so not essential you need to read to get the other books but it’s fun! This is basicly Wills build up after his rise to fame🏎️, you get interviews💋,press conferences🎙️, Fans reply’s through insta, TikTok, twitter, ex., Merchandise launches💄, documentaries📺, a tini tiny bit of angst, well its kinda a big part, actually its just like 2 chapters idk, fluff, smut, and more!!!

Summary
Greg doesn’t know when he stopped seeing Petey as the enemy, only that the way Petey holds Li’l Petey makes him stay, even when it hurts.
There was no confession. Just silence.
But in the quiet, Greg realizes: what he feels won’t stay buried forever.
So he collects the small things, Petey asleep on the couch, brushing Lil’ Petey’s hair out of his face, speaking gently when no one’s around.
Because if this ends, and maybe it will, Greg needs to remember that it was real.
