I love getting into a new fandom and sorting the fanfics by kudos and then finding that one fanfic that was written so well and so deep and so interesting, that it literally spawned an entire trope genre 😂

FIC: Tempora Mutantur, Nos et Mutamur in Illis ~ Fullmetal Alchemist ~ Ed/Roy
Title: Tempora Mutantur, Nos et Mutamur in Illis Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist Author: Batsutousai Rating: General Pairings: Edward Elric/Roy Mustang Warnings: AU, time travel fix-it, happy ending Summary: 10-15 years post Reverti Ad Praeteritum, Roy and Ed enjoy a holiday up at the cottage and end up talking about kids.
Roy waited until he'd finished about half of his coffee—and finished the apple—before asking, "What's wrong?"
Ed's head tilted slightly towards him, but he didn't look away from where the sun was visible over the dark shapes of Central. (As much as Roy wanted to warn him about burning his retinas by staring at the sun, experience had taught him that pointing out something obvious like that, would just get a sarcastic response and Ed—or Al, no matter what lies the brothers might want to insist on about the younger being better behaved—continuing whatever misdeed Roy had felt the need to comment on.)
"It's Nina's birthday," Ed said after a moment of silence, like he'd been weighing the pros and cons of telling the truth.
It was that pause, more than his certainty of the date, that told Roy his husband was talking about the daughter he'd left behind in another life, because Ed didn't tend to talk much about his life with Winry. At least, not to Roy. (Not to Maes or Al, either, based on some of the questions they'd tried to sneak into conversation.) Which, well, Roy knew Ed still felt guilty for everything that had happened during the last few years of that life, and he didn't doubt that a part of Ed would always mourn leaving that family behind.

my fav fma fic is an EXCELLENT time-travel fix-it called "Reverti Ad Praeteritum" by "Batsutousai" (also very long lmao). I also love both ShanaStoryteller's and DarkScales's Ishvalan aus ("Ishvalan AU" series and "Desert Gold" respectively). It's nice to see Ishvalan as a culture being more fleshed out since you don't get much of that in canon. Reverti and Shana's are both RoyEd too so 🙌
Omg, I haven't come across a Batsutousai mention in a long while. Dropping legendary authors in my inbox, are we? If it is written by them, I have probably read it and only don't remember (my brain sometimes forgets good things too and they have written a LOT in a lot of fandoms.)
Thanks for the recs!

From @lightveils on Twitter (free to use wherever!). I’ve been meaning to do this for a while. I definitely have enough fics to fill it lol~
-0-
A Fic You Love Without Knowing The Source Material:
I was born for this by esama (Assassin’s Creed | Altair x Desmond | M)
Juno did her best to lead him to her preferred fate, but the end is coming and Desmond has doubts.
A Fic With A Premise That Shouldn’t Work But Does:
Proposing To Strangers by moonstalker24 (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | G)
At the end of a strained relationship, crime novelist Stiles chooses to hide from the world inside a bar with far too many motorcycles outside it for comfort. Here he'll meet the man of his dreams, eat food and propose marriage, all within the first five minutes.
Peter doesn't know who this kid is, but he's cute and looks like he could use a break. So he feeds him. He's not expecting a marriage proposal, but with what comes after, he doesn't really mind.
A Fic You’ve Reread Several Times:
Hooverville by twothumbsandnostakeincanon (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | E)
Town to town, train to train, tent to tent.
By 1932, the dust had begun to blow and the jobs were gone.
Anonymity was a byproduct of looking for work, which made it both necessary and convenient.
Stiles had enough secrets of his own to know to look the other way when he saw something that shouldn’t be possible.
The ghost of a tail giving enough balance to disembark a moving train.
Near silent Latin whispered on the edge of a tent encampment.
A flash of burning eyes.
He had more than enough to worry about without adding the oddities of others, and besides- having unusually sharp teeth certainly didn’t make a man worse than the ones running from the wife and kids they couldn’t feed.
So Stiles kept his observations to himself. He kept his everything to himself.
Until he met a man. One with eyes so blue they seemed to glow- and then they did.
Stiles tried to look away, but for the first time he was stopped.
“Don’t be like that sweetheart. Aren’t you curious?”
A Fic You Still Remember Many Years Later:
All True-Hearted Souls by mardia (Temeraire | Laurence x Granby | G)
“For God's sake, if someone doesn't talk Laurence out of these constant heroics, I wouldn't bet a farthing on his chances; no, and not ours either.” Four times that John Granby helped save William Laurence's life. Laurence/Granby. Spoilers up to Empire of Ivory.
A Comfort Fic:
Nothing Improper by Bunnywest (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | G)
“How long since someone touched you, sweet boy?” Peter asks, his voice barely a breath in Stiles’ ear. “Days? Weeks? Months?” Stiles nods imperceptibly at that last one.
“After…after everything, after Allison,” is all Stiles manages to get out.
A Cathartic Fic:
Swing by ShippersList (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | T)
Stiles wants to fly.
A Fic You’d Print And Put On Your Bookshelf:
Nose to the Wind by Batsutousai (HP | Tom x Harry | M)
While Harry had been content with his second chance, that didn't keep him from thinking what he could have done different, how many people could have survived if he hadn't been set on the very specific path he'd walked. Third time is the charm, though, right?
A Fic You Associate With A Song (x2):
Strange Duet by BelleAmante, thiliart (thilia) (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | M)
The past three years have been a series of shocking, or not so shocking, successes for 2018 Tony award winner and two time Grammy nominee, Stiles Stilinski. You don’t typically find classically trained opera singers singing alternative folk rock to crowds at Coachella. Nor do you find indie singer/songwriters winning best actor awards at the Tony’s for their Broadway debuts. Stilinski has made it his lifetime habit to defy and exceed all expectations.
-or-
A Steter fic loosely based on Phantom of the Opera
~
Full Circle by Nike Femme (FMA | Roy x Ed | T)
Edward Elric returns with amnesia. He has lived the past four years as Auric, a Gatekeeper. But there are some battles that only he can fight. Will his friends be able to awaken Ed, and what happens to Auric if they do?
A Fic That Inspires You:
Off the Line by esama (FFVII | Cloud x Vincent | T)
In which Cloud gets a Virtual Reality Dream Console – ShinRa's latest in virtual reality technology. Aaand everything pretty much goes downhill from there.
A Fic That Brought You On Board A New Ship:
Me and Mine by linndechir (Fast and the Furious | Deckard x Owen | E)
The last time they'd spoken, Deckard had told Owen that he was tired of cleaning up his messes. But the first thing he did after breaking out of prison was to take Owen to the other end of the world so they could lick their wounds and start planning their revenge.
A Fic You Wish Could Be A Movie:
Moving In (To Every Single Aspect of Danny’s Life, Including the Boring Bits like Dry-Cleaning) by westgirl (Hawaii Five-0 | Steve x Danny | T)
It felt wrong for Steve to sound unsure of his place in Danny’s life. His place in Danny’s life was at Danny’s side, driving him slowly insane. Steve should feel secure about that.
A Fic That Led To You Making Friends With The Author:
Begin and End by Rikkamaru (Log Horizon x HP | G)
This is how it begins: a boy rejected by his family, a boy reunited with his brother by his sister-in-law's intervention. A boy who found a family in an online game. But how will it end?
FREE SPACE:
Reverti Ad Praeteritum by Batsutousai (Fullmetal Alchemist | Roy x Edward | M)
Unwillingly forced to serve as a human trial for a crazy alchemist experimenting with time travel, Edward Elric finds himself standing across from Truth in the moment it takes his leg from him. Armed with the knowledge of what's to come and burdened with guilt for the choices he'd made as an adult, Ed sets out to fix every mistake he ever made and save every life they ever lost, no matter what it takes.
A Fic You’ve Gushed About IRL:
Designation: Miracle by umisabaku (Kuroko no Basket | M)
It's been three years since seven human experiments, called "Miracles," escaped Teiko Industries, alerting the world to the presence of super-powered children. Now they're finally integrating into society-- going to normal high schools, playing basketball, falling in love-- and trying to find out if it's possible to truly escape their past.
A Fic You Associate With A Place (have to self-rec for this one):
Safe Harbour by cywscross (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles x Chris | T)
Peter didn't think he'd find a home here. He certainly didn't think he'd find a home with two other men.
Chris and Stiles prove him wrong.
A Fic That Made You Gasp Out Loud (kind of? it was suspenseful):
Sanctuary by DiscontentedWinter (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | E)
The Hale Wolf Sanctuary isn’t just for wolves.
It turns out it’s for Stilinskis as well.
A Fic You Found At The Right Time:
slow increments by Areiton (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles)
Peter is enigmatic, egotistical, sometimes barely sane. He's sharp and cutting and takes more time to care for the pack than anyone.And sometimes, John catches him watching Stiles.
A Fic That You Would Read Fic Of:
if you try to break me, you will bleed by Dialux (Game of Thrones | Jon x Sansa | T)
It had been a slash across her chest from a White Walker’s sword that finally ended her life. Sansa’d landed in a puddle of her own blood, and she’d died quickly, quietly.
And then she’d awoken with a gasp, trembling, in a bed that had burned under Theon’s betrayal.
A Fic That Made You Laugh Out Loud:
The Path towards Unwilling Godhood by Sky_King (Bleach | Kisuke x Ichigo | G)
Ichigo has never had the most normal life, and this latest chapter of it is no different.
"I'm not a god!"
A Fic With A Line (Or Two) That You’ve Memorized By Heart:
Atlas by distractedKat (Star Trek | Spock x Jim | T)
Between what was and what will be stands James Tiberius Kirk, in all his fractured patchwork glory. Because saving the Federation was only the beginning.
A Fic That Gave You Butterflies:
The Rest of Our Lives by mia6363 (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | T)
“I don’t know, as a kid I watched a lot of movies, you know? And at first I figured like… I’d be on some great adventure that would take me away from it all, you know? Like Indiana Jones comes around and is all, ‘Hey Stiles, buddy, come with me we’ve got to go save the world.’ Then… you and… everything happened… then I just… I figured I’d die before I was eighteen.”
A Fic That Embodies Something You Value In Life:
The Boy Sleuth by Shey (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | T)
Stiles is eight when he discovers a box of his mom’s old Nancy Drew Mysteries in the back of the guest bedroom closet.
A Favourite AU:
Love What is Behind You by KouriArashi (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | M)
Basically what it says on the label. Hunger Games type fusion. Stiles doing way better than anyone anticipates. Peter finds him intriguing. Ruthless, devious assholes working together to ruin bad guys, as the Steter ship is meant to be.
A Fic You Stayed Up Too Late To Finish Reading:
Of Dwobbits, Dragons and Dwarves by ISeeFire (The Hobbit | Fem!Bilbo x Fili | T)
Bilba has been a slave her entire life. All she knows of the outside world is what she sees from time to time outside the gates of Moria and the stories her mother used to tell her. Stories of a place called the Shire where her mother once lived and a placed called Erebor where, as far as she knows, her father still lives. Stories of dragons a thousand times larger, and more intelligent, than the beasts the orcs rode and of a strange concept called freedom where one was allowed to live as they wished with no one to tell them what they could, or could not do.
The stories meant little to Bilba. The only future she had was to live, and die, as a slave as countless number had before her.
And then the orcs dragged an injured female firedrake through the gates, her rider screaming obscenities behind her as he fought to reach her side...and everything changed.
A Fic That Made You Feel Seen (another self-rec lol):
i am addicted to death (so remind me what it’s like to live) by cywscross (Teen Wolf | Peter x Stiles | T)
Stiles is sixteen years old. He has already died seventy-eight times.

Weekly Fic Recs - FMA
After doing these recs for a couple weeks I figure I have enough recs to do that I can do these bi-weekly for a bit, so! Bi-weekly fic recs commence! This Wednesday’s fics are FMA, a whole bunch of Ed/Roy, mostly. Enjoy y’all.  
Weekly Rec Lists 
i'm giving you a nightcall by clairedearing
Edward/Roy, Alphonse/Winry, Reincarnation Au, Modern Au, Superhero Au, Complete, 124k
Edward Elric (the second) has always had to balance the two sides of his life; on one proper flesh and blood hand, he's a genius working as a crime scene investigator, putting his younger brother through university. On the other not-actually-flesh-and-blood hand, he's also the red-hooded vigilante Fullmetal, protecting Central City from criminals and assholes like 'the Dragon'. But mutilated bodies have stared showing up, and now he has to deal with his estranged sorta-maybe-ex-boyfriend (who's in charge of hunting down Ed's alternate persona), keeping the public from various levels of hysteria, and stopping a mysterious group who seem to be echoing the one his mother used to belong to...
the catwoman to your batman by clairedearing
Edward/Roy, Vigilante Au, Complete, 6k
Ed had his mission - to escort the Ishvallan refugees to the camps. Then he could get back to his research. Except, a mysterious masked man keeps screwing everything up.
Diplomatic Excursions and Other Ways to Die by Tierfal
Edward/Roy, Post Canon Au, Complete, 53k
Conceptually, attending Emperor Ling's coronation celebration is simple enough. In practice, it involves far too much trekking, yearning, bleeding, burning, hoping, running, and dodging of diplomatic catastrophes for Roy's tastes.
Catalysis by aventria, iluxia
Edward/Roy, Edward & Roy, Edward & Maes, Edward & Alphonse, Trisha Lives Au, Fix It, Friendship/Gen, Families of Choice, Backstory, Worldbuilding, WIP, 210k
Work in progress. "Search for the value of that which you seek, for alchemy already knows." Alchemy knew what Edward wanted when his fingertips touched that circle, but Edward did not yet understand how value differs from price, how equivalent differs from equal. The Gate calculates with one small difference, and Trisha Elric lives - but the cost may be too high for Edward to afford.
[ In which Edward Elric becomes Roy Mustang's ward in a different context; Trisha Elric is alive but is as good as dead to her sons; Alphonse Elric grows in a human body under Izumi's tutelage, struggling to understand just what it is they have done right; Hohenheim's past is more complicated and intertwined with the tapestry of Amestrian history; Envy dances a very fine line between his loyalty to Father and a growing obsession/addiction; and Amestris is so not ready for this bloody revolution. ]
Part 1 of Catalysis 'verse
Button Up Your Overcoat by Skinner (psiten)
Edward/Roy, Edward & Alphonse, Edward & Team Mustang, Fix It, Friendship/Gen, Bamf Riza, Complete, 140k
Ed could untie knots in the fifth and sixth dimensions -- blindfolded. He could convince the military he fell through a rabbit-hole, and he could even shut down a Drachman invasion (with a little help), but he can't seem to avoid dating Roy Mustang (and maybe is kind of okay with that). But here's hoping they can collar a General trying to trigger a three-way war, and that they can stop him before he destroys the world.
Making himself walk instead of run took every ounce of composure he had, especially when he got far enough to see the city blanketed in a strange layer of dust and dark thunderclouds. The weather had been clear for miles around. Those clouds had the smack of weather alchemy about them.
He had to find his brother.
The Universe Just Doesn't Know What the Hell to Make of Edward Elric by queerstang (rosethomass)
Edward/Roy, Soulmate Au, Soulmate Marks, Complete, 5k
Everyone Edward's age gets their tattoos, gets to know who their soulmate is, and it's just one more thing to remind Edward of all the things he's lost and never got to have.
Major spoilers for Brotherhood.
Two Months and Counting by Tierfal
Edward/Roy, Harry Potter Au, Magical Au, Worldbuilding, Complete, 4.4k
Given that Ed is past words and beyond belief, surely it's fair to break the rules right in half.
[Vague situational spoilers for '03/CoS.]
Part 1 of Bending the Rules
The Maestros of Misuse by Tierfal
Edward/Roy, Harry Potter Au, Magical Au, Fluff, Complete, 6.7k
Ed spends a day with the Improper Use of Magic Office, and no one loses their mind more than a little.
[Vague situational spoilers for '03/CoS.]
Part 2 of Bending the Rules
The Twelfth Cup of Coffee by Tierfal
Edward/Roy, Coffee Shop Au, Modern Au, Mundane Au, Complete, 44k
The thing with Roy is founded on coffee snobbery and stupid text messages and seriously awesome makeout sessions in the car. Oh, and the love of a lifetime, or whatever.
From the Worst of Times by Batsutousai
Edward/Roy, Edward & Roy, Edward & Team Mustang, Roy & Team Mustang, Bamf Roy, Bamf Ed, Complete, 38k
"From the worst of times," someone had once told a young Roy Mustang, "always come the greatest of gifts." There were times in his life that was all he had to cling to, but it always seemed to hold true, one way or the other.
This Lion is in the Garden by Xyriath
Edward/Ling, Xerxian Ed, Royalty Au, Arranged Marriage, Complete, 26k
Ed’s duties as a prince of Xerxes right now really aren’t that complicated. Establish favorable relations with the nation of Xing. Learn to get along with his betrothed. Don’t offend anyone. Especially don’t offend anyone. What he didn’t predict was getting along with his fiancé perhaps a little too well.
Son of the Desert by ShanaStoryteller
Edward/Roy, Edward & Alphonse,Trisha/Hohenheim, Ishvalan Ed, Ishvalan Al, Friendship/Gen, Bamf Ed, Backstory, Worldbuilding, Complete, 10k
Every time Edward sees the circle on the back Mustang's hand, he wants to scream, wants to reach across the desk and shake him, wants to wrap his hands around the older man's throat and ask if it was worth it, if this desk and his rank is worth the screaming, crying, writhing, burning bodies of his people -
"Something to say, Fullmetal?" Mustang drawls.
Edward snaps the file shut, "Nope."
Part 1 of Ishvalan AU
Sins of the Father by ShanaStoryteller
Trisha/Hohenheim, Hohenheim & Edward, Hohenheim & Alphonse, Edward/Roy, Ishvalan Ed, Ishvalan Al,  Friendship Gen, Worldbuilding, Feelings, Complete, 8k
Hohenheim has been gone for fifteen years. It's time for him to go home - his wife is waiting for him.
Dreaming in Red and Gold by Batsutousai
Edward/Roy, Post Canon Au, Complete, 96k
When Drachma agrees to meet for peace talks at Briggs Fortress, General Roy Mustang is the one sent to represent Amestris. It just so happens that the Drachmans have their own Amestrisan, who is far too skilled at turning the most tedious of discussions into an exciting time.
But Not Buried This Time by Tierfal
Edward/Roy, Post Canon Au, Bamf Ed, Complete, 95k
Once Ed decides that he is categorically not going to rot on the Drachman tundra, dragging his ass out of the jaws of death is actually pretty easy.  ...except when it's not.  At all.  Which is most of the time.
(AU from end of Brotherhood.)
Come What May by Batsutousai
Darius/Heinkel/Edward, Edward & Roy, Edward/Roy, Friendship/Gen, Families of Choice, Post Canon Au, Bamf Ed, Military Au, Complete, 
After the Promised Day, with his alchemy still intact thanks to Hohenheim's sacrifice, Ed finds himself and his chimera team getting dragged into the shadowy world of military secrets in an attempt to keep Bradley's legacy from causing a civil war.
Part 1 of Our Sinner's Redemption
Reverti Ad Praeteritum by Batsutousai
Edward/Roy, Edward & Roy, Edward & Alphonse, Edward & Maes, Friendship/Gen, Mute Edward, Bamf Ed, Bamf Al, Time Travel, Fix It, Complete, 289k
Unwillingly forced to serve as a human trial for a crazy alchemist experimenting with time travel, Edward Elric finds himself standing across from Truth in the moment it takes his leg from him. Armed with the knowledge of what's to come and burdened with guilt for the choices he'd made as an adult, Ed sets out to fix every mistake he ever made and save every life they ever lost, no matter what it takes.
a terrifying clamour of trumpets by ShanaStoryteller
Edward & Alphonse, Edward/Roy, Edward & Izumi, Bamf Ed, Fix It, Complete, 12k
Edward grabs Marcoh’s arm and says, “That stone – what can it heal, exactly?”
The old man’s eyebrows rise to his forehead, and he looks like he already knows the answer when he goes, “Why do you ask, Edward?”
There's no metallic footsteps so there’s no way Al’s close enough to hear them. “I’m sick,” he admits after another moment of deliberation.
Accidents Happen by metisket
Edward & Alphonse, Edward & Harry Dresden, Alphonse & Harry Dresden, Crossover, Crack, Friendship/Gen, Complete, 14k
It’s not so much the strange children falling from the sky that are worrying Harry. It’s more that the children don’t seem to think the situation is all that weird.
“No matter where I go,” Ed said thoughtfully, “there’s a goddamn pyromaniac there waiting for me.”
Repaire du Diable by Batsutousai
Darius/Heinkel/Edward, Edward & Alphonse, Post Canon Au, Complete, 9k
Ed and Al weren't the sort to settle down, despite their best intentions, so they travel, eventually finding Noah again, this time working with a circus that has its share of familiar faces, but also some new ones. Can the Elrics finally find people to settle down with?

just wanted to let you know that I saw some of your RoyEd posts and I was like, "Hmm, what's that about" because I kind of ship Roy and Riza but I'd always liked Ed and Winry better as besties, so I was like, "lemme check this out" and now I'm reading a 200k!!! word fic and it's aLL YOUR fAuLt
OMYGOD, okay, I am so excited to introduce you to this wonderful world of Royed shipping. I’m extra excited because I literally fell into this ship myself, it was my first official non-canon shipping adventure. I had JUST discovered AO3 and fan fiction within like the previous week or two and was searching through the FMA stuff for fics and color-me-surprised that there was WAY more content for Roy and Ed than any other pairing. It took about a week for curiosity to get the better of me and I finally decided to read a fic and... well yeah, just like that I was hooked. 
Okay, so I’m gonna recommend some of my favorites to you, most of which are probably gonna be from @tierfal because she is a goddess and a fic-writing powerhouse. 
Pretty Good Company by Tierfal 
This was the beginning of the descent, the first Royed fic I ever read and I still really like it, although I don’t think it’s my favorite. Just a typical post-canon Brotherhood get-together fic, not especially different from many others like it, but Tierfal always manages to write things so much better than everyone else. Some additional recommendations by her are the series Leading the Blind and Loud and Clear, though the latter is still ongoing. I also just finished reading But Not Buried This Time and it will forever stand in my memory as the fic that takes like over 50,000 words what most people would tell in like 5,000 and yet I was never even slightly bored. The first chapter alone literally blows my mind. Her prose is the eighth wonder of the world. 
Reverti ad Praeteritum by Batsutousai 
This has got to be the absolute best time-travel fic in existence. I am not exaggerating. 250k+  of rewriting the entire Brotherhood storyline when The Truth gives Ed a second chance, a do-over on the whole adventure. I have never seen someone take that trope and write it so well. It will take you forever to read this but it is so beyond worth it. 
The Ishvalan AU 
I’ve seen a couple of different takes on this idea, but I like ShanaStoryteller’s the best. Basically Trisha was an Ishvalan. Ed and Al still look the same but the whole Ishvalan Conflict and whatnot is seen in a different light because of this single change. It’s also written in kind of a distant, dreamy quality, a bit formal too, that I really like. The story isn’t really super focused on the Royed relationship itself, but it is a good story anyway. And it has a happy ending. 
States of Matter by Tierfal 
Okay, so this is just one of hundreds of silly one-shots but for some reason I just really like this one. It’s sweet and humorous and I’m a nerd who likes science jokes. It’ll give you some fuzzy feels and is a nice break from a lot of the heavy stuff I’ve recc-ed so far. 
Sel Euraidd by Winds_of_Water 
If you like ugly crying, this is the fic I didn’t expect to like but now have to recommend. Edward is a selki, which is one of those odd mythological creatures that doesn’t get talked about much and didn’t really appeal to me plot-wise at first. But I really like the story, despite the sobbing I was subjected to because of it. 
So those are some of my top favorites. I am a shameless multi, so I still definitely like Roy/Riza and Ed/Winry but Roy and Ed have such an interesting dynamic and there’s a lot of potential for angst which I am a total slut for. 
Feel free to come scream at me over these two literally anytime, I love them.

MoL!AU
With @thebratfarrar​‘s permission, I’m posting an except from our monstrously long AU fic, in which Abaddon never possesses Josie and so Henry doesn’t get sent forward in time, and many alternate paths are taken. We think that it will be rad, but omg, so long. Here’s a little snip in case anyone is interested.
The package really isn’t much bigger than a standard three-ring binder, the kind Jenn uses to collect her thousands of English lit notes. Sam tears off the brown paper and tosses it over onto the passenger side of the seat and--it’s a cardboard box, plain, but a plain envelope’s stuck to it. He tears it off, tears it open, and inside there’s a single sheet of thick, cream-colored paper, an Aquarian star embossed in the center, and there’s Dad’s neat handwriting, again:
Dean, it reads. I’ve picked up a lead. It will be dangerous, but it is necessary for the work I’ve been doing. This package contains all the information you will need to continue, if I don’t succeed. Do not open this unless you receive confirmation of my death. If that happens, you know what you have to do.
It’s signed with a terse JW, along with a shape that Sam’s pretty sure is the Phoenician aleph, though who knows why.
Sam stares at the letter, for a minute. He knew he was leaving--knew he was going to disappear, for god knows how long, and he couldn’t pick up the damn phone. Sam doesn’t crumple the letter, though it’s tempting. He stuffs it back in its envelope, his throat tight, and turns to the box. No obvious warding on it, no magic sealing it tight--just plain packing tape, and Sam doesn’t really think about it. He flips the keys in his hand and uses one as a makeshift boxcutter, slicing the damn thing open in a quick move, because he wants to see what was so important that John Winchester would bother sending it along to his son.
Cardboard flaps peeled back--something wrapped in more brown paper. He pulls that away, and--and it’s Dad’s journal. It’s Dad’s journal, and Sam just stares at the box in his lap, shocked into stillness. Whenever their dad bothered to come home, when Sam was little, all he got was, that’s Dad’s, don’t touch it, from Dean--and it was serious, a rule, harder and stronger than practicing Latin declensions and recognizing the signs of a banshee roosting. Sam touches the black leather of the cover, made soft with the years. He’d asked, once, what their dad was always writing, and Dean had shaken his head, steered Sam away into a game of find-the-ghost. Don’t worry about it, Sammy, he’d been told, and he hadn’t, but now--
He lifts the journal out of its box. It’s thick, ruffled with tucked-in newspaper clippings, post-its and random notes jutting out between the pages. A glance out the driver’s window proves that no one’s watching--and of course, of course they aren’t, but he still feels like he’s under surveillance as he props the spine of the thing against the steering wheel and finally folds the cover back.
Embossed inside the front cover: J. WINCHESTER, in thick raised letters. The first page is in an unfamiliar hand. To John, it says, in a wide looping cursive. Aspicio praeteritum, tueor futurum. Sam traces a finger over the words, wondering, and then flips to the first few pages.
It starts, Today I am a Man. January 4, 1973. This is really it. This is their dad, starting out as an initiate. Sam flicks through the pages. Brief details of research, lists of omens and monsters, articles taped in with notes spidering off the newsprint, all laid out neatly in their dad’s well-practiced hand. Drawings, of shadows and monsters, going on and on through the years, and he flips to the end to find another little list addressed to Dean--instructions on where to go, what to do, how to continue the work, with no indication as to what the work actually is. Impersonal and businesslike and just like a Warder, giving orders to a subordinate without giving too much away.

assuming that having a single white eye is a trait exclusive to the emeritus bloodline, did anybody question why Copia had it when he first came to the church or did everyone assume he was just another one of Nihil’s bastards

The following is AU content! While the white eye is a trait that is found in the Emeritus bloodline, it's not actually exclusive, at least not technically. Because the white eye is so common in the Emeritus family, it's now assumed to be an exclusive feature. It's as if the bloodline has been eternally blessed by Hell. Even those that marry into the family, such as Prime Movers, will receive the white eye during the wedding ritual. However, there has been a few cases, documented and undocumented, in the past of the white eye appearing on those that are not part of the bloodline. The origin of the white eye is said to be a mark that Lucifer will give to his chosen few that serve a special purpose in his plan. The Devil's own eyes are also mismatched and pale, so to share a trait with him marks those with the white eye as blessed and special. In fact, when Sister Imperator brought Copia to the church as an "orphan", one of her justifications for it was because she found him with the, "Blessed Eye". When Copia was a child, the fact that he had this feature was enough for the clergy to accept him. They permitted him to rise in the ranks and become a cardinal. Obviously, Lucifer has some kind of purpose for this... "unremarkable man". With that information in mind, it's painfully ironic that Copia is the only clergy member to have never heard Lucifer's voice...

Writing Update
So since I’m finally doing more writing, thanks to a cool little website called “4thewords”, I’ve decided to do a fortnightly update of what I’m working on, including little snippets. We’ll see how long that lasts, but I’m going to try.
Fanfiction
“Like A House On Fire (We’re Up In Flames)” - A “Mr & Mrs Smith” AU, Anko/Rin
"They did what?!" Obito's voice, even through the phone, was loud enough to make Rin wince a little and pull it away from her ear. "Volume, please," she snapped, and heard him huff just as she tucked her mobile between ear and shoulder. She needed both hands for her thigh holster. "I just said they tried to make me and Anko off each other."
“Save Me (Just In Time)” - Time-travel fix-it, Sakura/Sakumo
Sakura listened with only part of her attention as Sakumo's team gave their verbal report, instead focusing the majority of her concentration on the few more serious injuries among them. The Hyuuga woman had broken one of her arms, which was the worst of the injuries, while a couple of the others - less instantly recognisable, though familiar in a way that suggested Sakura knew relatives of theirs - had stab wounds in non-vital areas. There was a mild concussion and a sprained ankle among them, but those were healed easily enough. There was one part of Sakumo's report that drew her attention, though, making her pause in her healing of a gash to one of the men's shoulders. "Repeat that, please," she interrupted, drawing everyone else's attention to her. She didn't back down from the almost judgemental looks, instead meeting Sakumo's dark-eyed gaze with confidence. "What you just said. The other party. Repeat that, please?"
“Sarcasm” - a series of snippets from various fandoms based on last week’s reblog of this post
"I know why we can't use alchemy, but this is going a little far, don't you think?" the older alchemist asked. "Remind me again who decided to kill the Fuhrer as their first act upon being flung back in time?" Ed demanded. Roy didn't blush, but it was a near thing. "I panicked," he muttered, and Ed snorted.
“Nothing Here Will Be The Same” - Yu Yu Hakusho & Harry Potter crossover fic, inspired by this cracky oneshot and my desire to write a fem!Yusuke fic.
She woke to an unholy, wordless screech, the sound cutting off abruptly into offended, pained gurgling, and squinted blearily towards the source to find Kazuma buckled to the floor, clutching his midsection with a pained expression on his face. Beside him stood Hiei, who rolled his eyes at Kazuma's whimpering. "Why the screaming, idiot?" Yuka demanded, and Kazuma spluttered incoherently, wheezing slightly as he gestured at her. Or rather, Yuka realised, at the way Kurama was still curled around her. "Oh, for fuck's sake," she grumbled, rolling her eyes and turning her back on her idiot friend. She ignored his renewed spluttering, instead tucking her head into Kurama's chest as the kitsune chuckled. "Miss Yuriko would murder me if I had any designs on any of her kits, Kuwabara," he said calmly. "Besides, our dear friend here is not my type." "Fuck off, I'm a fuckin' delight," Yuka grumbled.
“Let’s Try This Again” - Fullmetal Alchemist time-travel fic, inspired by Batsutousai’s “Reverti ad Praeteritum” (found here)
Ed tilted his head back, staring up at the building before him with a completely blank expression. "Brother?" Al's young, still thankfully completely human, voice asked softly, and Ed shifted his golden gaze to his little brother. His blank expression slid away, replaced with fond affection as he reached out and ruffled his baby brother's hair gently. "I'm alright, Al," he assured gently. Al didn't looked like he believed him, but he nodded anyway. "Come on, little brother, we have an appointment to keep."
And an as-yet-untitled Katekyo Hitman Reborn Sentinel AU, in which Tsuna and Hibari are a Sentinel/Guide pair and Reborn (and the Vongola) have no fucking clue who they’re dealing with.
The first thought that crossed Kyōya’s mind when he laid eyes on tiny, fluffy-looking Sawada Tsunayoshi was ‘mine’. It was also the first word to leave his mouth, drawing his Sentinel’s attention straight to him even as the adults in the room turned and stared at him in shock and slight horror.
Original Work
“Shockwaves” (working title) - Sequel to “Smoke & Dragonfire”, which is currently in the editing process to be published around December. A supervillain loses her memory and is taken in by a group of superheroes.
She was even more sure, now, that she had been a villain. A strong one too, considering how many times her fragment-memories had seemed to have her surrounded and being ganged up on by multiple masked-and-costumed people she could only assume were heroes and Masked. It made her wonder why they were being so kind to her. Honestly, why would they give her the opportunity to regain her memory where she could easily escape? Even without her memories, she could think of multiple ways to escape this building and disappear into the city streets. That wasn't even including the option of slipping out the bathroom window, descending along the outer wall of the building, and ducking into the nearest alley, which was something she had realised was possible the moment she discovered the bathroom window was rather large and opened far enough for her to squeeze out the gap. But she would stay for now - it was kind of nice, being welcomed the way she was. Even if she didn't trust them as far as she could throw them, she would stay with the heroes and their Masked friends for the moment. There wasn't any point in leaving when she didn't know where she could or would go.

Fic Recs
For @bakatora​ who - to my interpretation - asked for some heartwarming, uplifting plotty fics you can sink your teeth into and come out feeling better because reality is hard right now, which I honestly really need myself. I’ve been so busy with exams and essays for the past three weeks, I haven’t even been writing fanfic, I think this is actually the longest I’ve ever gone without writing something, and I’m still not finished. Last exam is on Friday, and then I’m gonna crash.
But anyway, I’ll list these by fandom since you said any, and most of them are complete too, hope you enjoy :)
Boku no Hero Academia

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

He doesn't remember who he is or how he ended up injured in the middle of the Alaskan wilderness; all he knows is his name is Percival, and he owes his life to the shy, redheaded zoologist who saved him. But unfortunately, just because he doesn't remember his past doesn't mean it can't come back to haunt him. This is the story of how Percival got his happily ever after, and then had to fight to keep it.
Final Fantasy VII
Company by esama

Game of Thrones
if you try to break me, you will bleed by Dialux
It had been a slash across her chest from a White Walker’s sword that finally ended her life. Sansa’d landed in a puddle of her own blood, and she’d died quickly, quietly. And then she’d awoken with a gasp, trembling, in a bed that had burned under Theon’s betrayal.

He saved Bucky from Tony, his team from the government, the world from the Sokovia Accords. Some time would probably have to pass for things to blow over, and then everything would go back to normal. Couple of days. Tops. After all Team Cap saved everybody, showing the world how dangerous the accords were, how easily they could be abused. Even their supporters had to come to their senses now. Yet five days after Siberia nobody feels safe. Things don’t calm down and suddenly it’s again Steve against the rest of the world. Only now it’s not some international organisation or government but the people. The ones he had saved. Slowly Captain America must realize that they don’t feel saved but angry, hurt and scared. The people demand justice for those who were really trying to save them and paid the price for it.
Naruto
backslide by blackkat
Naruto’s friends are gone, his lover is dying, Konoha is destroyed, and Madara’s second return has pushed the entire world to the brink.

After four torturous months Sam has his brother back, but Dean is accompanied by an angel with a terrible task for them both: help stop the impending apocalypse, or see the world destroyed. Sam has no idea what to do next when the Trickster turns up, blonde and female this time but as maddening as ever, promising assistance. As time passes Sam finds himself slowly coming to depend on the pagan Trickster god, but just when it looks like the apocalypse can be averted, the Winchester luck kicks in and threatens to ruin everything - including Sam's friendship with Loki.
The Laughter of Dead Tricksters by onthewaters
After Dean returns from Hell, the boys have an encounter with another Trickster and Gabriel ends up assisting. And then there is that whole Lilith thing.
Teen Wolf
Naughty Hookers (Swathed in Wool) by pprfaith
Stiles is happy with his store, his hobbies, his friends. Peter's just trying to figure out how to raise his nieces and nephew without fucking them up too badly. Paths cross.
All In A Spin by ShippersList
Stiles can't really talk anymore but, with Peter, he realizes he doesn't have to. Even if their spoken communication consists of one swear word and stuttered syllables, they understand each other. And that's what counts.
If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out by mia6363
Commander Stilinski looked like he fell out of a propaganda video, his armor still smoking as he pulled off his helmet and handed it off to First Officer Argent. He had a few bruises down his neck but his smile was bright. “Glad to see you safe and sound, Mr. Hale. I’d hate for Derek to lose a member of his family.” “I told you,” Derek snapped at his superior, “he’s not worth this, Commander.”
Out Of The East, Never See The Sun Rise by ladypigswagon
In the beginning, there are three absolutes. One. Stiles is a god, forged of starlight and collapsing galaxies and he is eternal. Two. Peter is human, fragile bone and viscous blood and he is temporary. Three. Stiles and Peter are in love; love that claws its way inside one’s heart like fish hooks; all encompassing love that is beautiful but dangerous. Stiles is a god. Peter is human. They love each other. Three absolutes.
Save Me by DiscontentedWinter
Peter is the Alpha. He's nobody's savior. Not his pack's. Not his town's. And not that kid's. But sometimes salvation goes both ways.
Kitty Quintuplets by iCheat (short but hella fluffy if you need a pick-me-up)
Prompt: Imagine person A getting home really drunk one night and they tell person B that they're pregnant with kittens.
The Unexpected Marriage of Peter Hale by moonstalker24
This is the story of how Peter gets married without technically dating anyone. “You can bring your boyfriend with you,” Talia says. Peter stops giving Henry more bits of dried fruit to stare at his sister “Boyfriend?” “Of course!” Talia gestures at Stiles who looks around behind him with wide eyes. “I’m sure the whole family would be interested in meeting your young man.”
The Sphinx of Beacon Hills by Guede
Stiles is a sphinx, and he’s winging his way to visit his buddy Scott when a storm drops him in Beacon Hills, the craziest, crankiest, coldest place ever. And somehow, he ends up with a bunch of werewolves.
Proposing To Strangers by moonstalker24
At the end of a strained relationship, crime novelist Stiles chooses to hide from the world inside a bar with far too many motorcycles outside it for comfort. Here he'll meet the man of his dreams, eat food and propose marriage, all within the first five minutes. Peter doesn't know who this kid is, but he's cute and looks like he could use a break. So he feeds him. He's not expecting a marriage proposal, but with what comes after, he doesn't really mind.
it's not the color i came in by nezstorm
Stiles is a bit of an anomaly among the Omegas he knows, or everyone on the spectrum really. For him, heats are about comfort and safety, and not at all about sex.
Whiskey is My Kind of Lullaby by taylorpotato
Peter is a simple saloon owner on one of the outer planets between the Aaru Belt and the Olympus Galaxy. He’s done with trouble. Done with adventure. So fucking done with rustlers. That is, until a cute young outlaw named Stiles wanders into his bar. Peter has this problem where he can’t seem to resist charming narcissists (perhaps because they remind him of himself). And when said narcissists turn his life upside-down, the worst part is he’s not even that upset about it.
Crossovers
Whispers in Corners by esama (HPxSherlock)
Everything started with a stumble - his new life in a new world as well as his surprisingly successful career as a medium.
There May Be Some Collateral Damage by metisket (BleachxHP)
Ichigo’s been ordered to go undercover at a magic school to bodyguard a kid named Harry Potter, and this would be fine, except that he’s about as good at bodyguarding as he is at magic. And he considers it a good day, magic-wise, if he hasn’t set anything on fire.
Of Wizards and Heroes by littlelightsinourheart (storyforsomeone) (HPxMarvel)
Centuries after that fatal day of the battle of Hogwarts, Harry Potter has fallen into legend, a bedtime story parents tell their children, a name whispered around campfires. He wanders the world alone and immortal, until one single reckless moment sends him hurtling into a parallel dimension of heroes and villains. A new enemy arises from an ancient power, and Harry must take a stand as the last wizard to protect this new world. If only SHIELD would stop trying to track him down...and someone could explain what the hell was an 'Avenger' was supposed to be. Honestly, muggles...
Cardcaptor Harry by LunaStorm (Cardcaptor SakuraxHP)
In which both Albus Dumbledore and Clow Reed would have done well to remember that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in any philosophy... or predicted by the most imprecise branch of magic...
i blinked (and there you were) by Della19 (Doctor WhoxKingsman)
The Weeping Angels, Eggsy reads on the stolen Torchwood intel. Aliens that pose as statues, and kill their victims by sending them back in time and feeding off their years not lived in the present. The politest psychopaths in the universe, a note reads, scrawled in what looks like a doctor’s chicken scratch on the edge of the page by someone who clearly had a perverse sense of humour. A one way trip, the report concludes; you get transported by the angels, and it’s the slow road back to the present for you. Eggsy lays his head back on the wall, takes stock of his situation. He’s lost 30 years - three years more than his entire lifespan up ’til now - in the blink of an eye, and now he’s stuck here, in 1988. Three years before he’s even born. Arthur, the prick, is sure to be heading up the Kingsmen, and Merlin, if he’s even there would be…20, maybe. Fuck, so fucking young. Shite, even Harry’d only be… Alive, Eggsy thinks, and finds himself sitting down hard from where his knees can’t hold him. This is 1988, and Harry’s 23, and alive. Suddenly, being stuck in 1988 doesn’t seem so bad. Or, the one where love means changing the future.

Der epikureische Weise: Cicero, De finibus liber I,62,2-3 und 62,5
Sic enim ab Epicuro
So (=folgendermaßen) wird von Epikur nämlich
sapiens semper beatus inducitur: 
der stets glückselige Weise eingeführt (= vorgestellt):
finitas habet cupiditates, neglegit mortem, 
er hält seine Begierden begrenzt, er kümmert sich nicht um den Tod,
de diis inmortalibus 
von den unsterblichen Göttern
sine ullo metu vera sentit, 
meint/glaubt (sentire kann auch “meinen” oder “glauben” bedeuten: ich habe so ein Gefühl, dass ich glaube...) er ohne jegliche/irgendeine (ullus,a,um so gut wie immer in verneinenden Formulierungen, hier: sine) Furcht zutreffende Dinge (vera = Akk.Pl.Ntr. von verum = das Wahre, das Zutreffende) 
non dubitat, si ita melius sit, 
er zögert nicht, wenn es so besser (melius = n; melior = m/f) sein mag/sollte,
migrare de vita.
aus dem Leben zu scheiden.
His rebus instructus semper est in voluptate.
Mit diesen Dingen gerüstet befindet (esse als Vollverb) er sich stets in (dem Zustand) der Lust.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
62,4 wurde ausgelassen [neque enim tempus est ullum, quo non plus voluptatum habeat quam dolorum. = und es gibt nämlich nicht irgendeinen (= keinen) Zeitpunkt, zu welchem (Relativpronomen im Abl.temporis) er nicht mehr Lust besitzt als Schmerz] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nam et praeterita grate meminit 
Denn er erinnert sich (meminisse, memini: eins der vier verba defectiva, die ausschließlich über eine Perfektform verfügen, die aber präsentische Bedeutung haben. Die anderen drei sind odisse=hassen, novisse=kennen und cognovisse=kennen)  sowohl an vergangene Dinge (praeterita = Akk.Pl.n. von praeteritum = vorbeigegangen; PPP von praeterire, praetereo, praeterii, praeteritum = vorbeigehen an etwas) gerne (grate = Adv.)
et praesentibus (temporibus) ita potitur, 
als auch macht er sich die gegenwärtigen Zeiten so zueigen (potiri, potior, potitus sum + Ablativ = wörtlich: sich einer Sachen bemächtigen)
ut animadvertat, 
dass (ut consecutivum; wegen des ita) er bemerkt/wahrnimmt,
quanta sint ea quamque iucunda, 
wie bedeutend diese (= ea -tempora-) sind (latein. Konjunktiv, weil quantus,a,um= wie groß, wie bedeutend ein Fragewort ist: Indirekter Fragesatz) und wie angenehm (iucunda = Pl.Ntr. Bezug immer noch tempora)
neque pendet ex futuris, sed expectat illa, 
und er ist nicht abhängig (pendere, pendeo, pependi,--- = (herab)hängen) von zukünftigen Dingen (Ntr.Pl.), sondern erwartet jene (Ntr.Pl.)
fruitur praesentibus 
er genießt (frui, fruor, fructus/fruitus sum + Ablativ = Genuss haben an etwas, etwas genießen, sich an etwas erfreuen) die gegenwärtigen Dinge (Abl.Pl.Ntr.)
[der Rest von 62,5 wurde auch weggelassen]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ich habe 2 Kritikpunkte: 
Erstens zur Philosophie Epikurs: Leider wird der für das Glückskonzept Epikurs wesentliche Begriff der Lust = voluptas = hedonä hier nicht erläutert. Das muss dringend geklärt werden (vergleiche meine Posts weiter unten), wenn man den Text wirklich verstehen will, muss man die Philosophie Epikurs kennen!!!!
Zweitens zu den Werken der Autoren: Es wird hoffentlich noch behandelt, was das für Werke sind, aus denen gelesen wird: Wie sie formal (äußerlich) angelegt sind (in Büchern, als Brief, als Rede,...., was ihre Wirkungsabsicht ist, zu welchem Zweck sie geschrieben wurden, wann sie geschrieben wurden, pipapo.
