All Billy has to do is make it one more year. Just one more year and he can leave his dad, Hawkins, all of it. Just one more year and he's free.
He can do that, can't he?

Summary
"Riff ain't a kid no more," Tony thinks the first time he sees him again after getting off the bus from Sing Sing. It's a stupid thought, because he had come to the same realization about himself during his time upstate, but he had somehow- naively and perhaps a little selfishly- assumed that everything back in the upper West would be just as he'd left it a year ago.

Riff knows a lot of things- the sun rises in the east, nothing worth knowing about happens outside of the West Side, the Jets are the greatest, and he is more like his father than he wants to be.

Summary
The members of the Umbrella Academy all eventually walk out of its doors and never return. In doing so, they knowingly save themselves, and unknowingly save the world.
Now featuring Ben's grandma- because she is awesome.
AU where all the siblings (and Grace) leave the Umbrella Academy one by one, but do different things with their lives than they did in the original timeline. And because of that, the Apocalypse never comes to pass, and everyone lives a (more or less) happy life.

Summary
In the end, it comes as no surprise when the first guy says, “What did you just say to me?”
“So you are deaf,” Harrington says haughtily, “that’s good to know. Or, hell, I don’t know, I could be wrong. Maybe you’re just stupid.”
Billy is out the door within a split second, just in time to see Harrington get decked in the face like an idiot.
*
Or: After their fight, Billy realises that Steve can't throw a punch to save his life. He decides that it's on him to fix that.

Summary
Instead of any empty bed, Tony finds a lump under his blankets, curled up tight. A mess of towheaded hair, a cheekbone, a nose, a mouth held tight and small. It’s Riff, battered and bruised.

Summary
Harry waits, but the hex never comes. In the mirror, Malfoy’s eyes dip shut, and he lets out a soft sound that goes right through Harry, heat rising in his body, pushing out against his chest.
Malfoy turns slowly, careful not to dislodge Harry’s hand. He swallows, Adam's apple bobbing, then speaks, his voice low. “Don’t start something you won’t finish.”
***
Harry’s not sure why he’s started hooking up with Malfoy. Boredom, or the heat of the summer, maybe. Whatever it is, it’s nothing too complicated. Right?

Summary
“Why not here?” Sirius shrugs, a hint of a smirk curling his mouth. “A drink is a drink, right? It doesn’t matter where you indulge.”
For you, yes, Remus thinks bitingly, fleetingly, but he pushes the thought down. It’s unfair to grouse about Sirius’ preferred poison when he himself can leave this place whenever he wants. Sirius, for his own protection and for Harry’s, is under house arrest, stuck in a building that he seems to hate with every fibre of his being. He can numb the hatred however he likes.
“You’re more comfortable in the kitchen,” Remus says instead. “Aren’t you?”Sirius invites Remus to have a drink with him in Grimmauld's study.
It's not about having a drink. Remus should've known.Or,
Dadfoot is one snarling guard dog.Bookmarked by LeftHandOfSnarkness
