    Summary

    "When holding your breath is safer than breathing,
    When letting go is braver than keeping,
    When innocent words turn to lies,
    And you can't hide by closing your eyes.

    "When the pain is all that they offer
    Like the kiss from the lips of a monster.
    You know the famine so well, but never met the feast
    When home is the belly of a beast.

    "The ocean is wild and over your head
    And the boat beneath you is sinking.
    Don't need room for your bags, hope is all that you have.
    So say the Lord's Prayer twice, hold your babies tight,
    Surely someone will reach out a hand
    And show you a safe place to land...

    "Be the hand of a hopeful stranger,
    Little scared, but you're strong enough.
    Be the light in the dark of this danger,
    'Til the sun comes up.

    "'Til the sun comes up."

    A Safe Place to Land, Sarah Bareilles

     

    Wherein Peter drifts between foster families, dreaming of a day he'll finally be on his own. Life doesn't always go as planned, though, and Peter certainly hadn’t been planning for Tony Stark and his son, Harley. There just may be a safe place for him to land after all.

    Summary

    Zuko was not a good shifter.
    Azula could switch between her wolf and human skins between steps. Not Zuko, he needed several minutes before he even started the shift, and that was on a good day. If it had been Azula who Animal Control found in that alley, they would have walked away convinced that their eyes had played a trick on them. There had never been a dog there.
    But Zuko's long transformation would have only revealed his kind to the world. Father may think he has no honor, but he wouldn't stoop so low as that. Even if that meant being dumped in animal shelter, trapped as much by the 24/7 security cameras as by the cage bars.
    He had the worst luck.
    -
    "Come on guys!" Aang said as he lead his friends through the clamoring barks of the shelter. "I want to show you my favorite dog! He's a sweetheart."
    Aang lead the pair to where a monstrous beast of a dog was growling with raspy barks loud enough to drown out the rest of the shelter. His bright white teeth contrasted against golden eyes and a bright red scar that stretched over the side of his face as he lunged against the cage door.
    Sokka laughed nervously. "Did the word 'sweetheart' change meaning when I wasn't looking?"

    Summary

    “The Angel of Death, the ferryman of the Styx, the terror of the western seas. One of the most feared captains ever to sail, and yet, I have to wonder… how did a man like you end up all on his own? We searched the area where you were found—not another soul in sight. So,” He fixes him with a long look, allowing the silence to hover like a dark cloud, the words rolling off of his tongue with all the venom and smugness he can muster, “—tell me, Philza. Where is your crew?”

    OR: Technoblade is a naval captain, and Phil his unwilling prisoner. Somehow, they manage to come out of it as friends in the end.

    Summary

    “I don’t want to intrude.”

    “You’re not intruding at all.” MJ unlocks her door and steps inside, gesturing with her head for him to follow. “Besides, I’m just repaying you for the flowers.”

    “You don’t have to,” Peter insists. “I was just being nice.”

    “Then I’m being nice too. Come on. I have too much food and only myself for company.” 

    She holds up the plastic bag in her hand, where Peter can see two boxes of takeout inside.

    “Okay,” Peter agrees, his hunger winning against his common sense. “Thank you for having me.” 

     


     

    Peter has done a good job avoiding Ned and MJ for the past four years. Until they both moved in across the hall and began inviting him for meals and giving him leftovers (suspiciously looking freshly cooked). He really shouldn’t get involved in their lives anymore, but Peter Parker is broke, hungry, and can’t resist the temptation of delicious food and the chance to talk to his friends again.

    Or: Healing and loving through awkward leftovers, impromptu lunch hangouts, and maybe admitting Peter’s not quite satisfied with his life as he thought he was.
