bnha
now they’re all dead hearts (to you) by Canonymous
(mature)
When Tomura presses five fingers to the baby-faced boy at the USJ and watches him crumble to dust, he doesn’t think twice about whether it was the right decision.
When his ghost floats in the doorway that night and asks, “Can I hurt you?” as he stands powerless to stop it, it occurs to him that maybe, just maybe, he kind of fucked up.
perchance to dream by Jackcatmeow
“Midoriya,” Aizawa starts, cool and crisp, but Shinsou can detect the edge of something else lining his tone. “I need you to calm down, and I need you to deactivate your quirk. You’re safe here. Stop now.”
Aizawa’s words roll off Midoriya like rain on a windowpane. He's barely finished speaking before his arms are up, grabbing Shinsou and pulling him bodily out of the path of the other couch, which Midoriya has just pitched against the wall in a single motion too fast to follow. It pierces the drywall with such force that it sits suspended like a dart on a board—not quite a bullseye.
___
Or: Izuku isn't waking up. Aizawa and Shinsou deal with the fallout.
bigger than your body by orkestrations
“Let’s not jump to any assumptions—” Another flicker of green lightning arcs from Midoriya’s twitching fingertips. “—That’s his quirk.” Iida stares, gobsmacked, at Midoriya. “Quirks can fire off in your sleep sometimes, right? When you’re having a bad dream?” Ochako asks. Kaminari nods. “That’s why I have to ground myself before going to bed.” “Sometimes I melt through my sheets when I have a really bad nightmare,” Ashido volunteers. “Then that’s probably just what this is,” Uraraka sighs, running her hand down Midoriya’s leg. “We just need to… wait it out.” As if responding to her, another finger of green lightning crackles over Midoriya’s skin.
When One For All activates while Midoriya is asleep, they can't wake him up.
mdzs
squenix robbed my house by victortor
When the world was still new and the legends of today were not yet legends, Lan An became cursed.
Yet, it is not Lan An, but Lan Wangji who bears the price of these mistakes. Lan Wangji and Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji.
(The "two minds one body" trope, but it's "one mind two bodies" instead)
come to the harbor of your longing by occultings (microcomets)
(explicit)
Lan Zhan has his daily rituals, before the medium shows up.
-
Lan Zhan leads a quiet, solitary life on the coast when a vengeful spirit disturbs his routine. The arrival of a charming medium into his daily routine quickly turns his relatively peaceful existence upside down.
The One-Body Problem by metisket
The good news is that Lan Jingyi has found a mentor, friend, and constant companion through the difficulties in life.
The bad news is that that’s because he’s been accidentally possessed by the Yiling Patriarch.
shape me something new by perilously
(explicit)
“Mo Xuanyu’s revenge,” Lan Wangji says dully. “It is finished.”
Wei Ying hangs onto Lan Wangji’s hand, his palm clammy. “I guess that means I’m finished too. He got what he wanted.”
“You are not finished.” Lan Wangji grips his hand tighter and pulls him closer. “We are not finished.”
(Or: the one where Wei Wuxian shares Lan Wangji's body with him after the sacrificing curse ends and takes his body with it.)
mp100
one is the loneliest number by bingbangbong_dead
(mature) (graphic depictions of violence, major character death)
“I think it’s time you were held accountable,” he leers, shaking him carelessly. This close, Reigen can smell the decaying scent that clings to him like an extension of his body. “I want you to watch as your actions destroy the ones you love, and I want you to hurt.” He lets go without warning, and Reigen’s face slams onto the ground. Mogami gets up too and presses a shoe to the back of his head, rubbing it there. “Suffering is all you people deserve, after all. Filth.”
-
Mob is not the one who is trapped inside Mogami's mind world.
A Breach of Trust by Phantomrose96
(graphic depictions of violence)
This is a world in which Mob and Reigen’s paths have never crossed, in which 10-year-old Mob found psychic guidance in the form of the aging, retired tv personality Keiji Mogami, in which Reigen followed through on his plans to close the Spirits and Such Agency, in which a cruel twist of Mob’s powers forces him to confront how dangerous he really is.
10 year old Shigeo Kageyama has vanished, his trail instantly cold, and his case gathers dust in police archives as a kidnapping never solved. Four years pass before a chain of events causes his path to cross with that of the despondent, unfulfilled fake-psychic-turned-fake-investigator, Arataka Reigen. Reigen finds himself in over his head caring for an escaped victim of abuse who, for reasons unfathomable, has been taught to believe his very existence is a horrifically dangerous thing…

The Thing That Was Not His Highness by VampireFaun
Xie Lian hasn’t been acting like himself for the past few days, but Hua Cheng doesn’t care, because he loves him. He loves him, he loves him, he loves him.
It occurs to him too late that the thing in front of him might not be Xie Lian at all.
tua
Lately My Hands Don't Feel Like Mine by siriuspiggyback, VeteranKlaus
Klaus, upon appearing in 1960, had promptly learned three things.
The first was that ghosts can time travel. The second: Ben's not the only ghostie who can cling on for a ride.
And the third? The third thing that Klaus had learned in 1963, he had discovered a month after landing, and rediscovered every day since. He had learned that ghosts, if they're motivated enough, can invade his body and make their home there. And they never leave.

✩ WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP ✩
All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading.
The Umbrella Academy
The Longest Roads Lead to Home by assaily (twistedskys)
Five raised his glass to the rafters. “I’m home,” he said simply. “I’d like to take the time to enjoy that, y’know.”
Diego watched him pour another drink, suddenly understanding him. He’d been gone a long time, lost in a really terrible place that probably never felt like home unless he could somehow forget he was the last soul on Earth. ‘Home’ meant a lot to him.
When Five’s glass was ready again, Diego raised his own, still half-full. “To being home,” he said.
That earned him a smile, a real one that managed to soothe the crease in Five’s brow and make him look so incredibly young in its sincerity, and so incredibly old in its deep gratitude. He raised his glass and clinked it against Diego’s. “To finally being home.”
Or: Five gets kidnapped and it goes wrong (for the kidnapper).
SVSSS
two golden lilies float in silence in cool pond waters by texturralize
After watching one's own life bleed away into something entirely unrecognizable- a denigration, an affront, a massacre of everything one believed in- and yet, something happy, something contented, something so easily attained, a soul grows wearied. Cracked, wearied, hurt. A broken man could only live a broken life, something Shen Jiu had seen proven to him. His martial siblings preferred the other "him" - the kind one, the palatable one. The one that was not Shen Jiu.
In death, he can only wrestle with the intersection of his own wrongs and the sins committed towards him that left him such a spiteful and angered person in life. Can being reborn, into the days when he had only just attained his status as Peak Lord, give him another chance to live a life that is happy, contented, easily attained? Can he do what the other Shen Qingqiu had managed to do? Can he make the miserable wretch he considers himself to be into a better person?
Shen Jiu does not think so. He will make a mockery of the spark of something deep inside him that hopes so to try. Perhaps...at least...this time, he can watch over his disciples and live quietly with the music in Qing Jing Peak.
The Favourite by x_los
Demonic Emperor Luo Binghe's reputation precedes him. It's just not very accurate.
The Owl House
unexpected turns by kathkin
If I go back there, he’ll kill me. it had been nagging at him all day, the certainty in the kid’s voice. But if it wasn’t the Day of Unity, then what? What could he have seen in the emperor’s mind that was worse?
What could Belos possibly have been hiding that had the power to so utterly break the loyalty of his perfect little lapdog.
Clone Wars
The inability to accept No by BitterChocolateStars
One man's inability to accept No as an answer saves the galaxy.
Or: Obi-wan turns down Palpatine's date invite. Sheev gets obsessed and salty about it.
The Goblin Emperor
Snowdrops and Bridges by Orockthro
"Serenity,” Csevet says, and his voice is flat and stoney. Maia’s hands feel clammy in his lap. “There’s been an accident at the Istandaärtha Bridge.”
Or: One accident, one flower, one kiss. Not in that order."

hey what’s up moots. i have been mia on tumblr for the better part of a week
pov: days ago i saw some really cool fanart for the umbrella academy and found out it was an illustration of a scene from an au fic (holding it together by sharkneto) and was bored and decided to start reading and just see if i liked it, no big deal
fast forward to now, about a week later, where i’ve read the 90k word fic plus it’s 196k word prequel fic (joining together, also by sharkneto) in every second of my free time and i’m so desperately and emotionally attached to both of them that i genuinely have no idea what to do with myself now.
ok maybe everyone in the fandom has already read both of these and i’m an absolute idiot who’s just discovering them but my words genuinely cannot describe how close im holding these to my tua hyperfixated heart rn. i need help thanks
also for some reason ao3 has repeatedly shut down for maintenance over the course of this week leaving me with so much excitement and suspicion over what would happen next so thank you to ao3 for being the worst this week but it’s ok we made it through!!!!1!!1!!!1!!!!
#genuinely so in awe at how someone can write THAT well#i’m so attached#what the hell do i do with myself now#like i genuinely have never been more interested in reading#i’ve always wanted to be better about reading more but it takes a seriously interesting plot (or character#in five’s case) for me to be interested enough to spend all of my free time reading#like it’s actually insane how invested i’ve been in this fic#i immediately need more. leave more long ass five-centric fics in the recs for me PLEEEEEASE i need more#laur rambles#the umbrella academy#tua#umbrella academy#five hargreeves#hargreeves siblings#number five#tua five#tua number five#number five hargreeves#laur says stuff

The Umbrella Academy ideas that are stuck in my head (part 2): Training
A fanfic idea where Klaus was involved in his siblings trainings cause Reginald saw he wasn't making enough progress in is own and "You must contribute somehow Number Four". But no one knew what each others individual training involved cause they hated taking about it. But one day after the not-apocalypse or whatever the conversation gets brought up and one of them mentions that Klaus was involved in the their trainings and they all are like....wait he was in mine too. And Klaus is like "yeah, I always preferred your trainings over mine" Then they ask Klaus what his training was and if anyone else was involved but he doesn't want to tell them about the mausoleum or how he later found out that Reginald used to kill him/let him die and time how long it took him to come back.
Luther (I'm not really sure how to include Klaus in training for him yet)
Diego's training included having him throw knives and things at various targets until his hands ached. Then Reginald wanting him to practice curving the projectiles so he made Klaus stand in front of a target (cause he knew Diego had a "weakness" for Klaus and also that Klaus couldn't die, not that he told anyone that) and made Diego throw knives at him. Later upgraded to Reginald throwing the knives and making Diego try to stop or repeal them. And he messed up sometimes and got so upset at hurting Klaus but Klaus is just like "Don't worry Di I trust you not to hurt me on purpose" and "It's okay Di, it's just a scratch". And Klaus just got used to the pain and build up a high pain tolerance.
Allison's training included rumoring over and over until her throat hurt. But she needed to rumor someone for Reginald to see the effects and how different wording and even languages changed the results. So Klaus got picked cause he was the best at/knew the most languages so he could understand (maybe because of the ghosts). And Allison kinda hated doing it to him but was afraid of Reginald and wanted to prove herself so she just made Klaus do a bunch of things. And Klaus got used to the idea and feeling of his body and mind not really being his own and kinda just dissociated after a while.
Five's training included practicing jumping until he felt like passing out. Then one day Reginald wanted him to practice with another person and chose Klaus. And Klaus got so dizzy and sick the first time he threw up so Reginald forbade him from eating on Five's training days cause "I will not stand you making a mess Number Four". Klaus didn't tell anyone and when asked why he doesn't eat sometimes he just said he wasn't hungry. Later Klaus thinks back on this when he is living on the streets and is already familiar with the feeling of hunger.
Ben's training didn't involve Klaus because it was too dangerous even for Reginald. But Klaus was always there when Ben was finished. And he would drag him to the bathroom and clean him up and then they would cuddle under blankets together in Ben's bed and Klaus would talk about anything and everything just to distract Ben from thinking too much about the Horror. And sometimes Ben hated when his stomach was touched cause it hurt or he was afraid that the Horror would just react without his control but other times when they would cuddle, Klaus would lay his hand or even his head again Ben's stomach and for a moment Ben knew how much Klaus trusted him and how much faith he had in him and in that moment it made Ben feel safe and in control.
Viktor obviously didn't have training like the others but he remembers when he would learn a new song and finally be able to play it through without messing up and wanting to show Reginald or his siblings but was afraid they wouldn't care. But Klaus would come into his room sometimes and listen to him play and he would sit on his bed and fall asleep. Viktor admits that at the time he thought Klaus was just bored and it hurt that he never listened to the whole song. But present Klaus says that he wasn't bored but that Viktor's room never had any ghost (unlike his other siblings who became murderers/haunted way to young) and his music was so beautiful and peaceful. That Viktor's room was safe, that Viktor was safe. And feeling safe was something Klaus rarely felt as a kid but in those moments with Viktor he was able to relax and actually sleep.
Anyway I just want a hurt/comfort fic with Klaus and his siblings.

Nothing is better than reading a fic that gives you what you expected from real show but in a way better way for third time in a row.
Five getting one of the 929392929 breakdowns he deserves. With good description.
@ashes-and-starlight thank you.

post s4 care package
This is my first and foremost reccomendation—-> If you’re looking for something that wraps itself up with plenty of closure, and also you preferred Lila and Diego: Broken Clocks and **Lost & Found** by Gin_Juice are a delightful series of fics that are long and with plenty of sibling bonding, absolutely hilarious, and cleverly written! Nice balm to the soul and in my opinion NAILS the characters. Starts off the end of season 2! ❤️❤️❤️
Through Every Open Door is also wonderful and ongoing though it’s an entirely separate fic working off of Season 3.
If you are a Five lover. The Shifting Mirrors by orsufemix is absolutely incredible. It’s ongoing, but it’s a monstrosity of a story in its own and explores what would have happened if Five had stopped a younger version of himself from time traveling. Related, Holding It Together by sharkneto is also incredible, as is its spin-off, as is the rest of sharkneto’s stuff.
If you are a Ben lover, like me—**Some Kind of Nature** by stiltania is wonderfully complex, long, and really focuses in on the Horror and what living with the Horror would be like, in an alternate universe where Ben doesn’t die on that mission. We also get a lot of sibling interactions here and this rendition of Ben is so interesting!! One of my top fics of all time. Content warning for plenty of body horror and a bit about botflies, but it’s beautifully written.
Also also also— Seong-Min Ha has Superpowers by frimfram. Basically Ben’s living a normal life before the Hargreeves come and do some shenanigans. Incredibly good!

I’m on an effing roll with this fic! Three chapters and three drawings in three days? I’m on fire! And maybe mildly depressed over season 4, but that’s probably unrelated.
Anyway! I love old man Five, and I love dressing him up and making him stand like a grandpa! :)

I'm really glad ppl are finding comfort in a few of my fics after how S4 ended.
If anyone else needs stories that end with the Hargreeves alive and actually being a family, try these.
Make Me Your Bomb - by @uniasus : S4 AU (written before it came out) where the Universe comes calling upset that the reset disrupted the planned apocalypse. Viktor trades his skills as a world destroyer for the opportunity for Five to create their perfect universe.
Picture Book by gin_juice : S1 fic series where they all try to patch the things that went wrong as children. A+ for Vanya being amazing at pool, not so amazing at crushes.
Grocery List Goals by @uniasus : S1 AU where they time travel back a year and try to set things straight - including snipping Reginald's legal control over them, getting Vanya and Klaus clean. The last scene of this is 100% a sleep, team hug.
tethered mind free from the lies by meliebee: S1 AU where family heals are hard, made harder by how Allison's gunshot in the theater made Vanya deaf in one ear. Doesn't end with a picture-perfect family, but they're trying. (One of the few fics I have reread).
World Enough by inktwice : Takes place after S2, where they're all holed up in a cabin and learning how to not fight each other. Amazing sibling moments.
Reckoning by bootscoot6 : Takes place after S2 as they try to figure out how to handle the new 2019, actually talk together, and Vanya's affinity with music kinda works like a siren which I love.
Bonus fic! Five and Lila acting like they're supposed to:
The First Step by TheNavigator : S3 fic. Where Lila and Five help each other via really bad coping mechanisms in Reginald's universe because Lila is pissed at Diego for thinking being pregnant = not able to fight.

Worst part of all this is I struggle with Tua fanfic since there’s a good chunk of it that’s like. Deeply out of character or weirdly biased towards or against certain siblings. If anyone has good fic recommendations that don’t villainize Luther, don’t baby Klaus and Viktor, aren’t weird about Allison or Diego, and actually understand Five and Ben as characters please. Please send them to me. Preferably Klaus, Allison, or Ben centric 🙏
#trying to find klau centric fic that isn’t trying to paint him as the poorest saddest more trauamatized sibling is hard ok#don’t even get me started on fics with Luther in them. don’t even get me started#it’s not that it’s bad it’s just like a lot of hcs I don’t agree with and make me uncomfortable#I’m sorry but Klaus would not break down crying in front of his siblings and they would not rush to comfort him with soft voices and blanket#it’s just not how these characters interact. ok.#and I feel bad criticizing when I haven’t taken a crack at it but trust. trust I am cooking something up#Tua#the umbrella academy#fanfic rec

Crossovers
Doctor Who
run, boy, run (the Umbrella Effect) by @ford-ye-fiji I Part 1-13 I Series Completed Crack Treated Seriously, AU - Fusion, Time Travel, Number Five | The Boy is So Done, Action/Adventure, Angst and Hurt/Comfort
Two unlikely allies, familiar in more ways than they can imagine, join forces in a series of happy accidents. And then things get really complicated very fast.
The Walking Dead
From One Apocalypse to Another by y_oruko I Chapters: 17/? I Crack Treated Seriously, BAMF Five | The Boy, BAMF Rick, AU- Canon Divergence, Five has beef with almost everyone, Eventual Found Family, The Walking Dead Season 5
Five lost his siblings to the void of time when he recklessly tried bringing them all to travel back in time. It bit him in the ass and threw him into a world where apparently zombies were real. The universe sure loved to screw him over. Rick didn't know what to expect when he followed the priest into a church, but it's certainly not a homicidal teenager.
The Four Horsemen by @silverwolf3432 I Chapters: 24/30 I Five | The Boy/Original Female Character - Dolores, Whump, Original Character Death(s), Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Torture
Instead of waiting 28 years, the Handler plucks a 15-year-old boy from the rubble of the Apocalypse and trains him to be a killer. So Five knows. He knows what it’s like to live through hell, to be broken down and made back up again, to be stripped of everything. He understands and he can relate to the torture Reginald Hargreeves put his siblings through after he disappears, even if they claim he never could. He knows because he went through it too. Because before he worked alone, there was Dolores. Because before he was the best, they were the best. Because before it was just Five, they were the Four Horsemen.
The Five Whistle by @i-logophile I Chapters: 1/1 I one shot Hurt Five | The Boy, Creepy The Handler, AU- Canon Divergence, Episode: s02e05 Valhalla
“What the hell was that?” Five tried to demand, but his breathlessness ruined the effect. The Handler grinned. “What? This little thing?” she asked, pulling a long, thin device from within the folds of her coat. “This is just a little something I had cooked up back at Headquarters just for you.” She twisted the end of the device. In response, the fabric of space released an unearthly howl of agony, making Five’s legs collapse beneath him. Then it stopped, and a shadow fell over him. “Now about that assignment,” The Handler said, gazing down at him with a predatory grin. – After the Hargreeves’ disaster of a family meeting, Five is still pacing the alley outside of Elliott’s when he’s confronted by The Handler. She presents her offer, but since it’s not his only option just yet, Five declines. However, The Handler isn’t so easily denied, and she decides to use a little something from the Commission to convince Five to rethink his decision.
The Lonely Lodger Inn by @i-logophile I Chapters: 1/1 I one shot Blood and Violence, Gore, BAMF Five | The Boy, Feral Five | The Boy, Episode: s02e07 Öga for Öga
"Ben, are you crazy?! We just watched Número Cinco go fucking apeshit on a room full of random people and—” “What if he had a good reason for it?” Ben interrupted, crossing his arms. “What if they were bad guys or something? Ever think of that?” Klaus scoffed. “‘Bad guys’? Really, Ben? We’re not thirteen anymore.” “Exactly, so use your brain, moron. Why would Five just go around murdering people in the ’60s?” “Oh, I don’t know, because he’s fucking psycho?! He’s probably all screwed up from time travel or something! Who knows what kind of shit—” “Klaus.” “What?” “He can hear you.” -- Or, what if the Board meeting was somewhere in Dallas, and one of Five’s siblings stumbled upon the massacre as it was taking place?
Crocodile Tears by @i-logophile I Chapters: 1/1 I one shot Five | The Boy Cries- but it’s “pretend”, Kidnapping, Drugging, Angst, hurt/some comfort, Post-Season/Series 02, The Commission. Number Five | The Boy Needs A Hug
A plan took shape in Five’s mind. It wasn’t one he particularly liked, and it would be unequivocally humiliating, but with the Commission coming and their powers shot to hell for the foreseeable future, Five couldn’t think of any other option. Didn’t change the fact that he despised crying. -- Five pretends to cry to get an enemy to lower their guard—emphasis on “pretend.” His siblings don’t catch on. After getting over their shock, they become unnecessarily distressed and proceed to flutter around Five like neurotic chickens. Oh, and some people die, but that was kind of the plan all along.
Can you hug me as I go? by maddienole I Chapters: 10/10 I Completed Five | The Boy Whump, Non-Consensual Drug Use, Flashbacks, AU- Canon Divergence, Hurt/Comfort, Angst
What if the FBI captured Five instead of Vanya? 2x7 canon divergence.
Misfortunes with The Sea by @euoniatz I Chapters: 6/6 I Completed Dark Five | The Boy, BAMF Five | The Boy, AU - Canon Divergence, Number Six | Ben Hargreeves Lives - eventually, The Sparrow Academy, Hurt No Comfort, Whump
Five doesn’t hold back anymore, doesn't think he could limit himself again now even if he wanted to. His eyes glow, never to be denied again, and the space around him shifts as if someone is pinching and pulling reality by force. The Boy tries not to laugh, but he feels incredible on a level he has always, during the sad expanse of his life, thought impossible. * When the Hargreeves return from the 60s, Five is already at the end of his rope. He swears off killing, only to find their deceased father in the living room, disapproving as ever. Add six mediocre replacements and a ghost coming back to haunt them and you've got yourself a desperate time traveler whose grip on reality is slipping. Five is willing to sacrifice his own humanity for the sake of his siblings, but is his humanity really the most important thing he could lose? How much power can he afford to let loose before he loses control himself? Will his family even want him after everything is settled?

Or, five times Izuku Midoriya kills himself, and one time he... well.
What the Fire Withheld: the Renaissance of Midoriya Izuku by orkestrations

Toga, Twice, and Mr. Compress sneak into a morgue. This is the setup to the cosmic joke that is Izuku's life. Or, his re-life? His undeath? What's the proper term for his condition?
Maybe it's actually a bit earlier than that, when he bleeds out beneath Sir Nighteye's hands while Overhaul escapes with Eri.

or, the jason toddification of midoriya izuku
RE: Izuku by thecozydragon
(graphic depictions of violence)
Wheezing through the pain, staring down at the body of an opponent Izuku should reasonably never have been able to take alone at his current level, Izuku realizes he just discovered a latent quirk.
“Fuck.” Izuku hisses. “That’s the worst fucking quirk I’ve ever heard of.”
It only activates on death. You have to die first.

Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)
The Next Life by spqr
“I don’t need an exorcism,” Tim says.
“I beg to bloody differ,” Constantine mutters.
Nobly, Tim elects to ignore him. “I want you to teach me.”
“Teach you what? Manners?”
“I already know manners,” Tim says, then barrels on as Constantine snorts in disagreement, “what I need to learn is necromancy.”
Never What You Were Before by Romiress
(mature)
Bruce Wayne is dead, and Gotham has moved on. Slade, for the most part, tries to stay out of it. He has enough work to do without having to take jobs near the Bats.
Until Red Hood calls him in to help, refusing to explain what he's found.
Maybe Wayne isn't as dead as he seems.

When Oikawa turns up in the corner of his garden, crouched behind the bushes, Iwaizumi couldn't be happier. He'd lost Oikawa months earlier, but the long days of mourning are gone. Now he's back. Still, there's something odd about Oikawa, something that just seems wrong.

in the land of gods and monsters by rikke
(mature) (major character death)
Lan Wangji was never supposed to die. Thirteen years later, the Yiling Patriarch rules the world with his corpse bodyguard.
Somewhere Sits an Empty Throne by Siamesa
(explicit) (major character death)
There is a dead man in the mountains.
A corpse in mourning robes, a ghost with bleeding fingers. A power beyond measure, with too-pale eyes and red blood dripping down his throat. - In which Wei Wuxian finds himself brought back to life as a very confused god, stumbles into a revenge plot, and wants to know what's up with all these ghostly rabbits. - TGCF fusion, god!WWX/calamity!LWJ

carousel: an endless cycle by potatopersonal
(mature) (graphic depictions of violence)
Frustration builds in his chest, an angry sob leaking from his mouth. It hurts, agitates his destroyed torso, but does it really matter?
His wishes don’t matter. His actions only hurt others, only cause suffering and misery. Even with four centuries spent atoning, he hasn’t learned.
(Xie Lian can't die. This is something he never truly learns.)
lion's tooth by curiositykilled
(mature) (graphic depictions of violence, major character death)
The second time he dies, it’s almost funny. He laughs—or well, he tries to. It catches on his broken ribs, comes out a rasping gasp instead. It’s funny. Really. The Flower Crowned Martial God, dying of a broken neck amidst the wildflowers.

And When I Look In My Window, So Many Different People To Be by CowgayKermit
If you were to go looking for Klaus, you wouldn't look to the alleys where drugs are bought, or to a rave where you could lose yourself in dance, no. No, you would look to his garden full of protective herbs, to his bedroom at three in the morning where he tends to make magic amulets. Klaus grew into his power, both as a witch, and as the Séance.
The End Times Are Blue by Jumblejay
Klaus’ skin is cold as death, just like the rest of his siblings had been. Five lets his hand linger for a moment, steeling himself, preparing to grab on tight and haul the corpse to its grave.
What he’s not expecting is for Klaus to suddenly take in a deep, shuddering gasp, cough harshly, and flail around until he slips off the mound of rubble he’d been lying on with an abrasive clatter.
Five snatches his hand back with a shriek and stares wide-eyed as Klaus props himself up on his hands, blinks hard, and glances around at his surroundings until his eyes catch on Five.
“Oh, shit,” Klaus says, looking almost as shocked as Five feels. “Five?”
Five promptly bursts into tears.
OR
Thirteen year old Five time travels to the future and finds himself trapped in the apocalypse, surrounded by the dead bodies of his siblings. Klaus, however, happens to be immortal. They figure it out from there.

i am addicted to death (so remind me what it’s like to live) by cywscross
Stiles is sixteen years old. He has already died seventy-eight times.

Triptych by feelslikefire
(explicit)
Victor is a human; Yuuri is a fae. Relationships between the two are always doomed to end in disaster, but true love is stronger than any magic — even death.

✩ WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP ✩
All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading.
Shadowhunters
Enthrallment by smilebackwards
It does look a little bad, Parmela thinks, looking at it from outside. As more specialists had been called in for consultation, they’d decamped to one of the larger conference rooms—eschewing attendance at A, B, AB, & O: The Impact of Blood Type on Non Subject Specific Blood Magic, because this was vastly more interesting and potentially important—and there are a round dozen high-level warlocks clustered around Alec, poking at him with magic.
Or: Alec attends the Magical Inventions and Advances convention in hopes of recruiting warlocks for another Downworld Cabinet. The warlocks, however, are more interested—and concerned—by the blue magical aura following Alec around.
DC
temporal fraternity by envysparkler
Damian clears his throat. “I require your assistance.”
The words come out easier with the benefit of practice and the knowledge that no one will remember them tomorrow. Today. Tomorrow-today.
The Umbrella Academy
cut me open and i still bleed red by aletterinthenameofsanity
Part 1 of the odds were never in our favor
Ben knows his fellow mentors pretty well, for how long he's spent here, behind the screens of the Games, watching as his tributes die.
Allison, from District One, has a way with the sponsors. Just a word placed here or there, stealthily dropped into conversation, and she can get her tributes the shit they need.
In his time as a Mentor, Klaus has developed a habit of drinking to get through the Games, and through the rest of his life, really- anything to avoid the truth of what's happening, the ghosts of the children he and Ben have sent to their deaths.
Very few people remember what Five’s name was before the Games. Caesar Flickerman and the Gamemakers nicknamed him that when he took out the entire Career Pack on his second day in the Arena.
Vanya’s the newest Mentor, the victor of the Seventy-Third Hunger Games.
Diego’s one of Ben’s oldest not-quite friends. A Victor from District Ten, he’d gone into the Games knowing how to kill an animal.
All the other Mentors Ben knows try never to get attached. Luther, on the other hand, doesn't forget a single name.
(A story of seven victors of the Hunger Games and the lives they live as Mentors.)
Danny Phantom
The Promised Land by redrobin1989
Danny Fenton has been running for years, from his abusive parents, from Vlad's experiments, from his freakish powers. He expected to be running his whole life until he found his way to a small town that felt like the home he'd never had.
M!ik
Study Dates Are Not Real Dates by StormySteady
A very important exam is coming up, and Asmodeus is trying his hardest to get Iruma and Clara to study for it. But his soulmates have other ideas.
Star Wars
Starlight, In All Its Forms by Soap_And_Lye
When Luke was eight, he was taken from his home on Tatooine and delivered into the hands of the emperor and his right hand.
When Luke was sixteen, he overheard the emperor's plans to steal a tiny Force sensitive child and saves him first, before being caught and dragged back to his masters' keeping.
When Luke was eighteen, he finds that same child on Gideon's cruiser, and spares both him and his family, including a silver clad Mandalorian.
And when Luke was twenty-four, he is captured by the Rebellion (captured or did he just let it happen? Really up for debate) and secretly sent as a prisoner to Mandalore, where Mand'alor Din Djarin rebuilds his planet and raises his son.
And the rest was history. Or the beginning.
Clone Wars
will you be an anarchist with me? by a_alene
Once the Kenobi floodgates are opened, they cannot be closed. Cody has apparently been keeping an itemized list of disagreements, and he is determined to tell Rex each and every one of them.
Kenobi refuses to listen to Cody’s input. Kenobi throws himself into battle with no regard for previously established battle plans. Kenobi uses the Force so recklessly and obviously that every undercover assignment is blown within the first few minutes. Kenobi is a hypocrite who berates Cody for sidestepping protocol, but flouts it himself at every opportunity.
CT-7567: bet you wish you had skywalker now
CC-2224: I wish for nothing but the cold embrace of space
Right. And he says Kenobi’s dramatic.
(Marshal Commander Cody and High General Obi-Wan Kenobi of the 212th cannot stand each other. Rex doesn't know why this is his problem.)
poetry is what you find (in the dirt in the corner) by fivecenturiesverse
(In which Cody becomes an anonymous poet after the war and his brothers find out.)
Rex launches forwards immediately and so does Bly, because he can admit to himself that he likes gifts. He likes gifts a whole lot more than Cody and Wolffe, anyway, who both act like martyrs who don’t need any material love. “Poetry, vod?” Bly asks, incredulous. “Cody’s right, you are going soft.”
“It’s by a clone,” Fox says, defensively, “it’s quite good, actually. For poetry. It made Sergeant Hound cry at the service.

Umbrella Academy fic recs
this is specifically in response to a post I saw by @hrts4fivehargreeves . Hope this is helpful.
This is a great Five fic, especially if you enjoy his relationships with Diego and Klaus.
2. This one is a coleection of fics. Each fic follows a specific sibling during a canon divergent roadtrip following the events of season two.
3. Another great Five fic, definitley good if you enjoy character studies. TW for eating disorders and body dysmorphia.
4. Another canon divergent story, following the shootout in the barn during season two. Great portrayl of the siblings relationships with each other and wonderful characterization.
5. This one is another collection of fics, each focuses on a relationship between two siblings pre-season 3.
