it all goes back to them (and they want it to stay this time) by greeggsnham
Fandoms: Scooby Doo! Mystery Incorporated (Cartoon 2010), Scooby Doo - All Media Types

Summary
It had been years since they saw each other. Velma left first, and then one after another, they followed their own dreams.
But years later, another mystery, in the form of a dead body sitting in the morgue, brings them back together. And while they know how to handle the mystery, handling each other requires an entire skill set they have all ignored since the end of high school.
Guilt-ridden glances and poorly executed reconnection dances between them. But hope does, too. Hope that they can find each other again, amongst the unnerving clues, melting reluctance, and the things that listen from the trees.

Summary
They spoke for the first time during a literature lesson in the following academic year. The young Wayne approached her desk and, in an even voice utterly devoid of intonation, declared:
“You’ve taken my seat.”
Lane raised her gaze dispassionately and, in the same tone, replied:
“Then find another.”
An expression of genuine astonishment flickered across his face — so comical that, had she possessed a little more strength for bickering, she would certainly have laughed. Instead, the girl conciliatorily pulled her bag from the adjacent chair — as if to say, sit down, if you’re so desperate.
Or
The story of Lane Winters and Damian Wayne over the course of many years.

Summary
Chester stood in the darkness, sweat clinging to his skin.
His chest rose and fell with uneven breaths, each one catching painfully in the back of his throat. For a moment neither of them spoke.
The silence stretched between them. Then Chester laughed softly. He didn’t know what else to do.
“Tell you what,” he said at last, voice rough around the edges. “We could’ve had a good life together.”
Parker’s shoulders tensed. He stood with his back turned to Chester, hands shoved deep into his pockets as though holding himself together required the effort. For a long moment he said nothing. Then he let out a quiet breath.
“I wish I knew how to quit you.”
The words landed between them like a confession. Parker never turned around. And somehow that hurt worse.

Or is she something not so human?

Summary
A flyer. An audition. A number—42—that feels less like a place in line and more like a lottery ticket out of poverty. For Alastor, walking into Morris Studios is an act of desperate hope. Surrounded by a cacophony of competition, he waits his turn, clinging to the memory of his mother's face. But when the moment comes, the polished performance he's prepared crumbles. In its place, he offers something far more vulnerable: a simple, tender song, sung without pretense. The man behind the glass doesn't just hear a voice. He sees a worth Alastor has never been allowed to imagine. And in a single, life-altering handshake, everything changes.

the boy that wasn't there (so there's no reason you should care) by GhostlyGuest
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
29 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
Izuku Midoriya does not exist. Therefore, neither do answers.
A green-haired, green-eyed boy keeps showing up anyway, much to the confusion of everyone.
This is normal. Let the fact that the boy does not exist reaffirm the fact that you exist, and that the other things that don't exist will continue to not exist.
Don't worry if he shows up again. He wasn't there.(Izuku Midoriya is not a story. He is a story's absence. Look for meaning all you would like, but if you manage to fill that hole, know that you will have killed him. If you do, remember not to feel guilt: he was never real in the first place... right?)

It was everywhere and it was so encompassing.
It seemed to talk to him, to chase the loneliness away.
And when it did, he wasn't scared anymore.
When it did, he knew what was reaching to him. -

Nothing could prepare him for the truth, however, or the strange twists his life was about to take when me meets a merman....named Bruce?
