Summary
An article comes out in the Daily Globe on the same day as an SI gala and Peter realizes that some things can't remain buried.
______________________________________
Stark stilled as he eyed Peter.
"You really take after me, don't you." He said, tone half amused, half something disgustingly similar to prideful. "Causing scenes at parties now, kid? I’m almost impressed. What’s up?"
“What’s up?” Peter repeated faintly. He was starting to feel more than a little hysterical, his mind replaying Stark’s words, trying to figure out if this was really happening or if he was having the worst nightmare of his entire life.
He was so sick of this, he realized. So sick of the lying, of the characters he had to play to keep his secrets. Peter had always hated shit like this. You’d think, as a vigilante, he’d be more into secrets but being Spider-Man was like, the opposite of lying for Peter. He'd never felt more in character than as Spider-Man.
But hanging with Tony somehow always felt like a game, everything practiced and poised. He’d been avoiding the man for so long he’d almost forgotten.
“Tony.” Peter said. “You lied to me. You fucking raped that girl-How many others are there?” -

Percy Jackson's Gay-Crisis (and general life crisis) by Zara17

Summary
Over the last week, Percy had been competing with Jason over…well, everything. Annabeth thought it was stupid but Nico, the fucking instigator that he was, had suggested Jason was better at sports than Percy and started it all. Unfortunately, Jason was infuriatingly good at almost everything, and Percy only had a select few things he was really good at which meant the competition wasn’t at all in his favor, especially since Nico was choosing each competition. And also because Percy sucked at a lot of things.
”Maybe he’s a bad kisser?”
Leo shook their head, head cocked and brow scrunched as they painted their nails with deft steady strokes that Percy vaguely envied. ”Nah, he’s good at that too.”
"What?"
"What?"
Or, alternatively, how Leo began Percy's gay-crisis, which quickly snowballs into a much bigger crisis that Percy has no choice but to face. Is he going to suffer in silence or will his friends manage to pry it out of him and help? None of y'all know except me because that's how plot fucking works, so don't expect me to answer that. Also alternatively titled Percy Needs So Much Therapy and Can We Please Acknowledge He's Very Bisexual. -

Summary
“Amity and...Luz?”
There was only one Luz in Hexside and she was definitely on the list of top three people Amity didn’t want to be shoved in a closet with for seven minutes for some kind of ridiculous teenage ritual, especially not during some ridiculous party thrown by some boy Amity didn’t even know that she’d come to anyway because her friends wanted to be “popular.”
This was not how Amity had planned her evening going. It was a fucking Saturday and she’d mostly planned to study and binge shitty TV in her room and pretend no one else existed but instead she was here and after being bombarded with the abysmal party music and overly giggly drunk crowd for over an hour, she hadn’t thought it could get worse.
And yet.
Luz Noceda. Amity was going to kill Skara and Boscha."
Seven minutes in heaven, featuring Amity Blight as a Mean Girl and a Lesbian (not related) and Luz Noceda as a Disaster Bisexual and Clumsy Autistic (definitely related) and Skara, as Thoroughly Done With This Shit.Series

Summary
"The dress is red and sleeveless, black lacing along the skirt, sleek and smooth in a way Peter had seen on TV but never actually owned before now. It's beautiful, the skirt flowing as Peter absently twirled, watching it sway in his mirror.
See, Peter likes dresses. He knows it's one of those things that he's supposed to hate or whatever but they're gorgeous and something about them has always drawn him in. The compliments he gets are always uncomfortable enough to make him shy away but never enough to make him forget how he feels looking at himself in the mirror like this. This time though, despite the rush, he can't help feeling slightly detached as he watches himself in the mirror, practicing smiling as the girl the dress was meant for and not the boy who kind of hates himself for not hating it."It's self-explanatory, babes. Peter Parker is queer and anxious, read it.

what you're longing for (you claim to abhor) by Ghxst_Bird

Summary
He smiles, all teeth, “Come on Replacement, I even got to the door with both legs busted. This should be nothing.”
“You’re right. Jason… Jason wouldn’t have given up. He would fight, I can still—“
The boy wobbles, and Jason has to suppress the mortifying impulse to jump to his aid.
“I can still fight. Batman needs me.”
“That’s a terrible idea,” he muses aloud, and if there’s a hint of real concern somewhere under all the roiling green, well, nobody can prove it.

Family You Made (Go Back, Do it Again) by JUBE514

Summary
He’s nine again– nine and new and knows so many things now so rather than try to go back–
He thinks he has the chance to make things right.
The bright blue trainers he puts on are a pair he hasn’t worn in forever, something he never thought about after he grew out of them (will grow out of?) a year from now, and sets off into the night and into the rain.
The plan he has in his brain is not really a plan, moreso just a couple of half thrown ideas and maybe five steps into building back the life he had in the most painless way he could.
Maybe, he thinks, maybe this plan can start off with the family he misses– because he’s sixty and most of them too injured or too old or too dead–
Call him selfish but he misses them. He would rather find them than get himself back into that lonely existence he called a life before he woke up at nine.
Dick makes do because that’s all he can do really.
-🦇-
Dick gets sent back in time, but don't worry, he's got this. (Probably)

Summary
Peter is fine, anyways. His boss might fire him soon, the Avengers might arrest him soon, the principal might expel him soon, but none of it has happened yet. And his dad—
“You didn’t get my coffee,” his dad says, halfway through his burrito. He has been in a state of low, simmering irritation all evening, and apparently this is how long it took for him to find a reason to blame Peter for it.
“You didn’t tell me to get coffee.”
“Do you have eyes?”
“Yes,” Peter says. “I have eyes.”
“So you could have checked if we needed coffee without me telling you every little thing, Jesus Christ.”
-
Peter just wants to make it to sixteen so he can escape this life and strike out on his own. He has a plan and nothing will ruin it.
Not even Tony Stark quite literally crashing into his life.- Language:

Summary
Joker is dead, and Bruce Wayne stands over his battered corpse.
Not Batman. Bruce Wayne, blood splattered on his Armani suit and fist still pale from when it had been clenched around Joker's hair, slamming his head one, two, three times against the ground.
