The Power of Friendship (And This Gun I Found) by symbioticSimplicity
Fandoms: Persona 5

Summary
Akira Kurusu has been through this shit before and he's not going to let it end like it did last time. He's learned from his mistakes and he's ready to try again. If the strength of his bonds are the power that allows him to stand up to Fate's cruel hand, then he knows just what he needs to do.
Goro Akechi is not interested in friendship, but there's power in numbers. When Fate fucks up and levels the playing field, he takes advantage of it without hesitation. If he can't be lucky, he *can* be stubborn.

Summary
I just think Billy deserved to have to suffer through redeeming himself, Steve deserves to get to be a punk, and Eddie deserves to get to be even more metal. And they all deserve each other.
Billy is forcefully brought out of his post season 3 coma, and slowly discovers he's got some carry over from having been possessed by a mindflayer. Good thing there's plenty of monsters around to practice on.
Steve is just trying to make sure his kids all make it through this newest quest, and maybe trying to learn a little bit more about who he really is now that life has stripped him of everything he ever thought he was.
Eddie doesn't really want to be here, but who is he to tell two gorgeous men no? He might be a coward, but he's not stupid. He's well aware that those without swords can still die by them.
Season 4 redo AU brought to you by someone who's only actually watched season 3.

Summary
More or less a redo of Yugioh canon with more focus on the Egyptology, character development, and ships. I threw in some MTG lore and replaced the game they play with it because honest to God I can't with Yu-gi-oh's rules and game play. Also I thought it would be neat if Atem was a Planeswaker.

Summary
Princess Azula is used to accepting orders she doesn't enjoy from her Father. She's the good child, and she'll do what's needed of her. When she's ordered to get closer to one Seto Kaiba after his unprecedented Agni Kai with his Stepfather, she finds herself much happier to comply with her Father's wishes. But that seemingly simple task may just come to change her in ways she can't yet imagine.
;P They won't get out of my head. I'm obsessed with this pairing. Due to who it it, this story is brutal.

You know how Bards in DND can cast spells and some of them are actually pretty fire? I decided Jaskier should be able to do that.

Summary
Going through the report has his brain gears steaming. It's a lot. Logs of vessel depth, design and composition (iron mostly, with the other metal trappings of a human design with electrical cables), radiation output and source (x-ray and a buttload of it!), readings and scans of the biomass enveloping the vessel (a tree, of all things). More blood readings because the thing was utterly flooded with the stuff (same composition as the sample he coughed out, lovely to know and think about), and the final logs of the containment and quarantining of the vessel inside the Blip-A.
The team was coming back home to Erid, and in double time. Because Grace gets to the important part of the report. Perhaps the single most important one since he arrived on Erid.
They found another human inside the vessel.

Ever wondered what would happen if Simon brought along The Horrors™ with him into the PHMverse? Well, wonder no more! (It gets defeated by the power of friendship and altruistic science, is what happens. Please set your expectations to comical absurdism and have a good ride!)

Summary
The figure swayed as they brought a hand up and dragged it down their face, clearing away a portion of the blood. The person opened their eyes and started to look around the room, and put their hand against the chair to steady themselves.
Gone was the extra mouth and all its teeth, gone were the fins and gills. Under the blood, it looked as though the person was wearing clothes and sturdy boots.
The person looked human. Grace could see glimpses of skin where some of the blood had been wiped away. The red eyes locked onto him.
Grace squeaked and shuffled back further, “I’m armed!” he said as he held the spray bottle up higher.

Summary
“Please,” he whispers, hoping the eel can’t hear him, “please, I want to live. I just want to live, I don’t want to die. Please don’t let me die.”
The turning of a new eye upon him feels as if he’s been scrubbed raw suddenly, the truth of him pulled from the dark places he’d made to hide it away as something answers him.
“What would you do if you were to live, little star?”
OR
Simon is rescued at the last minute by *something* and dropped onboard the Hail Mary at quite possibly the worst time. Ryland Grace is fresh off a horrible fishing trip and his best friend is comatose. As the most injured and broken versions of themselves, they meet.

Now, Grace has a new goal: to get Simon to trust him enough to open up about his past, the injuries they found him with, and the reason he refuses to sleep.
----
Blending of movie genres ~ Simon experiences PHM-level hope for the first time in his life, and Grace gets thrown headfirst into horrors beyond his comprehension.
