Summary
AU where they both fell and Bucky slept while Steve became the Soldier.
Bucky wakes up from seventy years of cryosleep and Steve has to find a way to break the truth to him gently. All of it, all of the truths, even the ones he never wants to think about or speak of again, least of all to Bucky. He doesn't want to, because he hasn't touched Bucky's skin for decades and it's everything he needs but he knows that Bucky won't want it anymore, won't want him, when he's told the truth. But Bucky still has to know.
The first time Steve kisses Bucky in 70 years is not his first kiss since 1945.

Summary
Mikey wasn't insane. He knew he wasn't.
He really did have three brothers and a father, no matter what his paperwork said. Also, none of his family was human, and neither was he. That was the truth about him, no matter what anyone else thought.
(Sticking by that truth got him thrown into an asylum. What a surprise.)

Summary
Izuku was born into a quadruplet.
A quadruplet with one other boy, and two girls, all a few minutes older than him. And when he was the only one of the four, he was the only one who started being treated differently. The only one who was... excluded. Yes, that was the right word.
He won't let himself lose his cool, though. Never.
At least, until Family Day happens.Warning: There's the f-word. I only use it once, so that's why the rating isn't teen. Hopefully it isn't misleading or anything.

Summary
The solution was pretty obvious in hindsight. A little more elbow grease and a couple of additions to the old place, and now, there was room for all five of them, and that's how it went. The nearest school was thirty minutes by car, as opposed to the previous 10 minutes by bus for Harry Anderson, but he adjusted. After a week of complaining.
Three gods in their forties, without a wrinkle or blemish or any indication that they were older than 32, and their two kids. As Roxy said, they had a whole lifetime of mistakes ahead of them. Better go make some, while they still had the time.
But John knew there was more than that. He had to make happy memories, too.
So he figured he better get to work on that category while he's here.

Summary
Christmas in the Milton household was difficult enough without the added complication of guests- and if Luke and Gabriel placing bets on who can get with Sam first wasn’t bad enough, then Cas developing a ridiculous crush on his sister’s boyfriend definitely is.
