Summary
In a universe still reeling from battles that shaped destiny, Gohan faces a turning point. Wrestling with the legacies of his father, Goku, and the turbulent past of his world, Gohan’s journey is marked by inner struggles, complicated loyalties, and a search for purpose amid lingering scars. As mysterious new threats ripple across realities, Gohan, Goku, and Vegeta—alongside a new presence, Solon—are forced to confront not just enemies, but the shadows within their own bonds. Old rivalries and friendships are tested, while unexpected alliances emerge in the face of challenges that defy simple notions of good and evil. In this landscape, softness becomes a source of power, and the struggle for self-acceptance is as urgent as any cosmic battle. Dragon Ball Super Groundbreaking is an epic of resilience, identity, and the unbreakable threads that tie warriors together—even when family itself becomes a battlefield. In a multiverse held together by trust and sacrifice, every choice matters, and Gohan’s quiet strength may hold the key to survival.
Or... What if DB took its JTTW roots seriously—but with a Superman twist, accidental philosophy majors, and cosmic crises solved by plushies and parental issues?

Summary
The wasteland changes people, turns you into something you never thought you'd be. Sometimes it seems unavoidable, unfixable, but maybe the right person just needs to come and take your hand.
OR
I don't trust Bethesda or Prime to handle Lucy and Cooper the way I want their story to go, so this is what I'd do with them if I was showrunner, aka my season 3.

Summary
Dreams are gateways into a person’s psyche. Nightmares are cells that lock from the inside. But what if there is no escape? What happens when the only solution is to endure it? For Knuckles, the best solution was to keep it all contained. His pain and the shame, he kept them out of sight. From his friends, from the world, and from the ancient echidna he accidentally brought back.
Because some legacies are heavier than stone. And the deeper he seals the prison, the more pressure builds beneath the surface.

The Diary of Katherine Shepard by Hawkster94

Summary
4 years and a half had passed since the galaxy emerged victorious against the Reapers. Recovery process is still ongoing, with the trauma of the war still lingering on, physical, mental, and emotional.
Inspired by the unfinished diaries that her former mentor, Admiral David Anderson, left in his former Citadel Apartment prior to his demise, now retired Commander Katherine Shepard decides to do her own diary detailing her early life, her career, the defining three years of her life, and what has she been up to since the end of the Reaper War.
Although it might be for the fun of it or just out of boredom, Shepard is writing her diary to help find her own closure.
NOTICE: This fic is based on the ending headcanon from AHEM (Audemus Happy Ending Mod), so no Catalyst, no Mass Relays damaged/destroyed, and no Geth/EDI being destroyed either. Additionally, it's based on CEM (Citadel Epilogue Mod), so expect the events of Citadel DLC to play out a few years after the Reaper War.
I should also mention that EGM and LE1/LE3 DP mods factor into this story.

Summary
Season One picks up in the fallout of Deborah Vance’s explosive exit from late‑night. After Bob Lipka corners her with an ultimatum “Ava is out or the show is over.” Deborah refuses to bend. Instead, she detonates the truth live on air. “I am being forced to fire someone I love who has done nothing wrong. Just to make shareholders happy. Where is the line?” A line she never believed in until Ava. Deborah walks away from the show and disappears back into the quiet of Las Vegas. Ava stays behind in L.A. honoring the distance Deborah claims she needs until a simple vacation in Hawaii pulls her back into Deborah’s orbit. What should have been a getaway becomes a new residency in Singapore, and paradise quickly reveals it’s cracks. Ava watches the woman she loves unravel. Deborah drifts through each day in a haze of alcohol and denial, running from a truth she’s terrified to face while making decisions rooted in fear instead of the fire that once defined her. Ava is left trying to hold together a woman who has spent her entire life pretending she doesn’t need anyone.

Summary
"𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤 𝙥𝙖𝙨𝙩, 𝙣𝙤 𝙛𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙤𝙬"
Both White and Black; complete nonsense from top to bottom. He wasted his time looking for substance in that garbage fire, but ultimately found nothing.
None of it matters, so screw both of them, toss 'em in the bin alongside the rest of the broken toys—both of it can go straight to HELL as far as he cares. The only thing that counts is getting his hands on a decent cuppa, a damn tea; that's about it, and if that means abandoning the pretentiousness of the world, then so be it. Because that was what He always did. He knew exactly what was going down. Sat back, watched the whole bloody circus unfold. Only stepped in when absolutely necessary to keep the wheels of existence turning, then let nature take its course. Allowed people to march right off the cliff, heads held high, blinded by their own hubris. The world is meaningless.
Let the dominoes fall, piece by shattered piece—guiding hand behind the scenes, letting humanity stew in its own self-destructive juices, and you know what? It worked perfectly.

Summary
Series of vignettes on Shane smoking, how he and Ilya talk to their daughter about addiction as she grows up, and the relationship between love and addiction. Smoking is central to this story, but, as Ilya will continue to remind Shane, smoking does not define him. Post-TLG and canon compliant except that Ilya is a non-smoker and Shane is addicted to nicotine.
Backstory: Shane inexplicably starts smoking at 27. He gets addicted quickly. He sees his addiction as a personal weakness and is deeply ashamed. The secrecy, shame, and fear of being discovered create ongoing tension in his relationship with Ilya. Ten years later, Shane is still an elite player, but years of smoking and hiding eventually impact his health and game. He retires at 37. Post-retirement, Shane and Ilya talk about having kids. They both desperately want to be parents, but Shane insists he must stop smoking first. He spends a year trying and failing before finally quitting. They adopt a newborn who they name Katya. The are happy—really happy. When Katya is four months old, Shane relapses.
Work is fully mapped. Title is a play on Love in the Time of Cholera.
