Brilliant Works
Absolutely fucking brilliant works that I keep coming back to. From sweet to dark, I seriously love these stories with all my heart!
I will never hide this, so please don’t worry about your stories if you accept the invitation.
This collection includes some Harry Potter fanfiction that I’ve chosen to keep for personal, nostalgic, or transformative reasons. I want to be explicitly clear : I am a trans man , I stand 100% with trans and queer communities, and I despise the transphobic views of the author of the original books. She does not define this fandom, and she absolutely does not speak for me. These works exist in spite of her, not because of her.

Summary
Tom Riddle wanted to cheat Death. Unfortunately for him, Death has their own opinions on the matter—and they’re not too happy about Riddle’s disrespect for their favorite animal, either. Time for everyone’s favorite omnipotent deity to teach him a lesson—and maybe gain a new Master, while they’re at it.
Now, the boy who wanted eternal life finds himself with nine of them—plus four paws, one very fluffy tail, zero magic and three Hallows to find if he ever wants to be a handsome human wizard again. And, wait, how is Harry Potter involved in all this?
Meanwhile, Crookshanks…Crookshanks has opposable thumbs, a wand, and the full resources of the Knights of Walpurgis at his disposal.
OR: The Tom and Crookshanks bodyswap crackfic literally no one asked for.

Summary
Dean’s always wanted a supernatural companion. Something strange and maybe a little dangerous - the kind of pet that would make people stop and stare. Now that he’s finally settled into a place of his own, it feels like the right time, but the supernatural creature he ends up taking home isn’t what he imagined.
Hidden in the back of the emporium, caged and collared, is an angel with dirt-matted feathers, half-healed bruises, and eyes that burn cold when they finally meet Dean’s. Dean knows he’s in no way prepared for this, but he also knows he can’t just leave him there.

Summary
A Season 2 AU in which Will Graham did not, at any point, accuse Hannibal of being the Chesapeake Ripper.
Will Graham is the smartest person most people will ever have the misfortune to meet. Hannibal Lecter has been no exception; he's brilliant, but his failing is that he assumes he's the mastermind in every situation. He still thinks Will didn't pick up on every weird joke, every coincidence, every threat disguised as a charming quip, every flashing neon sign that screams "Hannibal Lecter is the Chesapeake Ripper!"
Now, Will has to decide what he wants from Hannibal. For the first time in his life, it seems like there's a possibility that somebody might be close enough to his level for a real connection. Hannibal is an apex predator in a garish suit, blind to Will's superior camouflage, and the Ripper's obsession with Agent Graham is so obvious it's drawing attention from... undesirable sources. If Will can manipulate everything to his desired outcome, Hannibal could become the equal Will has always wanted.
If he wants to protect their fragile peace, it'll take a lot more than just Hannibal Lecter.
That's fine. After all, Will has never been able to stop himself at just one stray.

Summary
The shield purred.
Well. If Steve wanted to be pedantic, the reaction wasn’t exactly a purr. It was still a piece of metal. But eighty years ago, when this had happened for the first time- the low vibration accompanied by this violently content sensation spreading across his mental link to the weapon, light pulsing gently along its runes and a low hum emanating from the center- Bucky had laughed and said it reminded him of a cat.
Steve had always, privately, believed the term was fitting. Something about the way it responded to his touch, like one of the alley cats that always strolled up to Bucky and started rubbing themselves on his pant leg after he'd stopped Steve from getting beat up by the asshole of the week.
Bucky had thought it was sweet.
Steve, well-aware that a semi-sentient magical object connected this intimately to a wielder took on more than just their magical energy signature, thought it was horribly transparent.
Or: Steve’s shield is a semi-sentient extension of his magic, and only allows the people it trusts to protect Steve as loyally as it does to touch it. That is a very short list. One that, apparently, includes the Winter Soldier.

Summary
What does living in peace after a childhood of war really look like? How do you reckon the consequences of a lifetime of being thrust into the spotlight? And oh, what a violent, bloody spotlight it had been. Percy never wanted to be a hero, never wanted to be important. Now that Gaia's gone, he has the chance to tackle building a life he truly loves. The Fates aren't quite finished with him yet, however. At least it's not another war.

Summary
Bucky doesn’t panic. Or, more accurately, he doesn’t allow himself to panic. Not if he can help it. He can feel the first threads of it clawing at his throat now, though. He walks as fast as he can without jostling the whimpering mass of fur in his arms too much, squashing down the images of Barton bleeding out on the floor, of his lifeless body being carried away, no idea whether he or the dog are going to make it.
When Bucky finds Clint and his dog bleeding out in an alleyway, he doesn’t expect his life to become all about dog-sitting duties, instagram, and shitty daytime TV gameshows. He also doesn’t expect to get drawn into Clint’s latest drama. He really should have known better.

Summary
Dean's never had faith. That's always been Sammy. But he thinks if there were ever a time for divine intervention, it would be now. Gazing up at the few stars that aren't occluded by the haze and light pollution, he feels fucking stupid when he opens his mouth to speak.
"God, if you're out there," he says, "I don't know what to do. I... I don't have anybody left. I need some help. God, man, just give me a sign."
Closing his eyes, he sits there. He can hear far off sounds of traffic and the whistle of the wind, but not much else. He thinks he catches a distant fluttering of wings, but there's no reply. Not that he really expected one.
(S1/S2 Rewrite) After Sam refuses to help Dean find their father, Dean prays for guidance. He doesn't expect to find it in an awkward, amnesiac angel, but at least he's easy on the eyes.

Summary
Wade Wilson is the best merc in the business, and he knows it. When he crosses the wrong kind of withered old lady—the magic kind—she curses him to regret his cockiness in the most literal way possible: By turning him into a cock. A rooster. A male hen, of the chicken variety.
Peter Parker, grieving the loss of Aunt May and Uncle Ben, needs a change. That's what his grief counselor says, anyway. So he makes an impulsive and massive one: He buys a farm. He doesn't mean for it to turn in a rescue for broken things, he just... he can't help but love the animals that no one else wants. Thus, when he overhears a greasy, crude asshole trying to pawn off a rooster in the middle of a farmer's market, he doesn't hesitate.
But there's something wrong with this rooster. It doesn't crow at sunrise—which is the only thing Peter expects a rooster would do—but it does holler its tail off whenever Peter bends over. And it follows him around and clucks like it's talking to him. And it's weirdly good at killing the vermin around the house.
There's a mystery afoot. Peter's going to get to the bottom of it.

Summary
Harry Potter has always been different, and his strange connection to plants marks him as the freak his Aunt and Uncle always claimed he was. The wizarding world was supposed to be an escape, but even there, he must hide the truth of his abilities. His magic doesn’t fit the rules, and secrets have a way of growing wild.
(If only there was someone who understood...)
A re-telling of the books in which Harry has more than one power the Dark Lord knows not.
