Summary
Five years later, Peter has gotten his college degree and settled into life as a P.E. teacher at Charles' school. He's got his whole routine mapped out: combat training with Erik and Raven in the mornings, running the Baby Mutants ragged on the field until they start planning his assassination in the afternoons, mixed in with calling Hank every variation of "nerd" American slang can provide and staring at Raven's butt when she's too busy to kick him in the throat.
After all the crazy shit he's had to go through, he finds comfort in this new-found stability, even if it means he's officially a Boring Adult who shops for prunes and wheat bread.
And then Wanda blows up a car.

Summary
Growing pains are a bitch, distant in Dean’s memory, but he imagines that his brother has it worse, considering just how much he’s been growing. Sam has trouble sleeping most nights, lies awake letting out soft whimpers as he tries to get comfortable.
One day, Dean decides that he’s had enough of it. Listening to his little brother suffer is far from his idea of a good time, and he figures he can at least try to do something about it.

Summary
After a botched witch hunt, Cas ends up an infant; it's strange to see their once all-powerful, indestructible friend so small, so helpless.
It's even stranger to see Dean look at Cas like that--like he's cradling the whole world in his arms.
Sam's trying to track down the witch, or find a cure, to get Cas back. But it's kind of difficult with all these intruding thoughts that never go away; the kind that make him step back and question everything he thought he knew of Dean and Cas's relationship.

Summary
Growing pains come and go, but this shit is ridiculous. Keith blames the aliens.
(Five scenarios in which Keith has to face his own biology, and 1 in which he faces his mother.)
"Keith rubs his jaw for a moment, and runs his tongue over his teeth. “I lost a tooth,” he states simply.
“You what?” Like an adrenaline rush, Shiro feels his parental instincts kick in. Keith runs his tongue around his teeth once more.
“I lost two teeth,” he corrects."Bookmarked by MzMaau

“That’s not normal,” he comments after a moment.
“No,” Shiro agrees with a sigh, “it’s really not.”

Keith has been training for this for months. So despite feeling like everything else in his life is falling apart and could be summed up with a big, blaring question mark, he finds himself halfway across the world with Shiro and Allura, preparing for his first ironman triathlon. He was expecting some typical touristy activities and a grueling day of physical activity. What he wasn't expecting was to meet a gorgeous boy with bright blue eyes and a smile that made his insides squirm.
Lance has been in a rut, unable to find the happiness that once filled his life. Everything looks gray, and he feels suffocated. And that's how he finds himself halfway across the world, backpacking across a foreign country with his best friend, Hunk, and their new friend, Pidge. That is, until they run out of money and decide to get a job. He's having fun, and colors are leaking past the dam and back into his life. What he wasn't expecting was to meet a beautiful boy with dark eyes and a shy smile that broke those flood gates wide open.

Torn Stitches by AggressiveWhenStartled

Summary
The trick to being with Sherlock Holmes, John mused, was to always keep in mind that he wouldn’t actually murder you and wear your skin as a suit.
“I can see the appeal,” Sherlock was murmuring to him over the peeled body, much to the horror of any yarders in earshot. “I often find it surprisingly difficult to get inside your head. It might be cathartic to do in a more literal sense.”
John snorted. “With your curls? Our killer didn’t even clean this poor bugger out properly, just pulled him on gore and all. You’d be picking bits of me out of your hair for weeks afterwards.”
