Summary
Allison has a gun.
It is an unfamiliar, heavy weight in her trembling hand.
And she knows, watching her sister perform the most magnificent song Allison’s ever heard - the music swelling, ebbing and flowing, in waves of beautiful white energy as the building crumbles into dust around them - that she is going to have to use it to do something awful.
There has never been enough time.
...
An alternate ending for season one of the Umbrella Academy. At the end of the world, as Vanya's song reaches its devastating crescendo, Allison makes a difference choice.

Summary
“Better than the Handler,” Five says, “is a very low bar. But it was really my mistake for trusting you, wasn’t it? For thinking that you would be different. That different is better that dead – but everyone who would ever work here is rotten to the core. I guess you can’t change your nature.”
“If you think that’s true,” Dot says mildly, “then what does that say about you?”
Five hoists the gun up and points it at her smile. “Let’s find out, shall we?”
...
Set vaguely after season two. Five finally gets his closure with the Commission.

Summary
Five sits down in the shitty motel armchair for a second, and it’s perhaps the first time Vanya’s seen him stay still for longer than ten seconds since they arrived in this unfamiliar 2019.
She looks at him closely while the others clamour around the food. The dark circles under his eyes are prominent and purple, and his skin has a sickly sheen to it. He looks like someone who hasn’t slept in two weeks. And the way he holds himself, as if his ribs are in pain, his limp, the scratch on his neck and the dark, blossoming bruise across his forehead…
Of course, as soon as he catches her watching, he jumps up again. “What is it?”
“Nothing,” she says, startled. “I’m just… wondering if you’re okay. You look like you might collapse any second.”
“I’m fine,” Five says, and she can tell that he is lying.
...
Set after season two. The Hargreeves siblings - the ones we know and love, not the sparrows - are fugitives, hiding out in a motel room to lay low and lick their wounds. Tensions are running high, but what Vanya's really concerned about is Five - he's hiding something. Something... is really wrong. Vanya knows the signs, and she knows her brother.
He's about to break.

XXV. A Well-Intentioned Disaster of a Day by BubblyWashingMachine for eyeofxana

Summary
“No, no,” he growls, searching for a way out, hand running over glass. “I’m not falling unconscious.”
Five kicks out wildly. He hits something - pain rockets through him and a wave of nausea follows. When he turns his head, struggling to breathe, feeling like the car is crushing him, he sees Klaus’ upside-down face, unconscious – dead? – and peaceful, a trickle of red trailing from his eyebrow into his hairline.
“Klaus!” Five shouts, his voice cracking. “Vanya! Anyone?”
No response.
Déjà vu.
...
Set vaguely after season two, in an AU without the sparrows. Five, Vanya, and Klaus get into a car crash.

Every Little Hurt Counts [febuwhump 2021] by BubblyWashingMachine
Fandom: The Umbrella Academy (TV)
28 Feb 2021
Summary
28 fics in 28 days, all focused on The Umbrella Academy.
Most will likely be centred around my favourite characters, Five and Vanya. Some might take place in AUs, some won't, all are based off of the prompts from the febuwhump prompt list on tumblr, and none of them will feature any shipping or romance between the characters.
