The Marauders are starting their fifth year at Hogwarts; Remus is starting with a massive scar across his face - a byproduct of the increasing severity of his furry little problem, which is a definite cause for concern despite his insistence that it it's fine. Sirius is starting with the memories of a certain morning at 12 Grimmauld Place in August: memories that he might not ever forget, yet is desperate to cloak underneath the facade that every is fine at home and that he and his parents just sometimes encounter minor disagreements. James is starting his fifth year, yes, but more importantly, he is starting phase five of his plan to woo Lily Evans: somehow his friends seem doubtful that he might succeed, but James, being James, is in no lack of confidence. And Peter, well, Peter is starting to wonder just why he puts up with these people, and if he should really be feeling sorry for Lily Evans, and maybe if he should have asked to have been sorted into Hufflepuff.

What if you could hear them? The thoughts they deigned not reasonable enough to say out loud, the things not suitable for even a giggly teenage gossip conversation. Would it be a blessing or a curse? Troye, the unlucky teenager bestowed with this 'gift', thinks of it as a curse, with good reason. Do you know how hard it is to keep a relationship with someone when you know exactly what they think of you? Impossible. It's impossible. Or at least that's what Troye thinks, considering he's given up on even trying to make it work. He's different, people shun different. People hate different. And it's better to go under the radar, to be nothing, than to be hated. Right? Tyler, on the other hand, has taken a different approach to a similar problem. No, he can't 'read minds', but he does have a part of himself he doesn't want a soul to know about. He's quarterback, every girl's dream guy, an academic mastermind, and he's also gay. He's seen how different kids get treated, hell, he's been the one to treat them that way before. Why on Earth would he ever wish that on himself? No, it's easier to hide, to be someone you're not, than to be hated. Right?

Dan is different. He's learned to accept that. Well, as best he can anyway, considering he's never really had much of a choice. It's been this way for as long as he can remember, the constant runaround process of trying to feel normal. His life is built around it, trying to trick both himself and everyone he interacts with into seeing him as your average person. The isolation as he desperately tries to keep others from finding out, the bitterness that wells up inside of him each and every time he's reminded that he'll never be like everyone else, the fear that nothing will ever change. He's fated to be this way forever; a misfit from society. Isolation can only go so far though, so when he's struggling to make ends meet and he's faced with the option of looking into a serious job or taking on a roommate, he opts for what seems like the easier option at the time. It doesn't seem so easy ten failed roommates into the process, or when he sits down at a table to meet with prospect number eleven and ends up with a coffee spilled all over his lap. Potential roommate number eleven, Phil, turns out to be an insufferable optimistic ball of sunshine that Dan wants nothing to do with. His options are running out though, as are the savings he's been using to pay his rent, so he finds himself begrudgingly agreeing to let the other man move in. Neither of them have any way of knowing just what they've gotten themselves into as they shake on the matter, but time will tell.

Caitlyn Montrose is an orphan. She has lived in Wool's Orphanage ever since she can remember. She was a normal child until the summer after she turns eleven, when a greasy, jet-black haired man shows up and tells her about Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Caitlyn goes to school then, and only to discover the awful truth that is her life: that she is the daughter of Lord Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. And she trusts nobody but Severus Snape and Professor Dumbledore with this. When the Dark Lord comes back and she has to become a Death Eater, will Professor Snape be able to protect her? And more important, how will she feel about having him on her side through all those years, always together? Harry Potter Fan Fiction

Bruce has been alone for so long with nobody understanding him. So he does the one thing he can think of- he adopts a child who won't judge him or criticise. This is their life together.

"That's my secret Captain: I'm always angry." Post Avengers. Bruce/OC. He's filled with anger. Constantly fuelled by it. It's what keeps him going. She's from his past. She knows more about him than anyone else. And she's dying. Can Bruce save her before it's too late - or can he not bring himself to forgive her for her past flaws?

Bruce is a calm scientist, and on the off chance, a giant green rage monster. Danielle is a daring girl, who tames animals when she can. When she gets recruited for S.H.I.E.L.D. and works alongside the rest of the Avengers in the new tower, will she learn to tame the Hulk, or be crushed in the process?

All I wanted was one chance. One chance at regaining happiness. One chance as regaining my life. One chance at freedom. What was so hard about that? The fact an immature god couldn't resolve his dads issues so he had to coke to my home and attempt to rule it?

One day this will be re-written. It's been quite a few years since I wrote this!

I used to be a sweet little girl, with a loving father. My mother abandoned me a month after I was born, so my father says. But, I'm no ordinary girl now. I have special powers, and I know others with special powers. My father is Phil Coulson, and I'm Cynthia Coulson. We both work for S.H.I.E.L.D, only he does the busy stuff. I talk with the heroes, and one of them caught my eye. A man with breathtaking anger management issues, as Mr. Stark were to say. Can't guess it? Bruce Banner stole my heart, but only at such a young age. I'm doomed. ( Book One of the Superhero Series )
