5 Times Anakin's Ghost Gave Unsolicited Parenting Advice by [archiveofourown.org profile] Callioope
Luke finally turned to look at his father's ghost. Despite everything, Luke noted with some amusement that his father still preferred to appear as his twenty-three-year old self. Even ten years ago, it had felt strange seeing his father this way; now it was downright ridiculous. To see them sitting together, one might have thought Luke the father and Anakin the son.

"I would prefer to be remembered this way," Anakin said, reading Luke's thoughts. "As your mother saw me."

"Mother." Luke sighed and looked back to the horizon, at the trailing orange-red glow of the set sun. "What would she have done?"

"Oh, something brilliant, probably," Anakin said, smiling. "Something well beyond the likes of us."
Exactly what the title says: Luke and Anakin's ghost watching over Rey through the years.

Dirt in the Machine by [archiveofourown.org profile] bedlamsbard
AU where Obi-Wan is a lady; she and Anakin get captured by Dooku and have to try to figure out what he wants with them while also trying to escape/get rescured. A good read. (Ugh, bring me all the lady!Obi-Wan fic; it scratches an itch I didn't even know I had.)

Do or Do Not by [archiveofourown.org profile] nymja
Interesting look at Rey, Luke, and Kylo Ren throughout Rey's training.

Ahsoka Tano has survived, but she has not been spared. Ahsoka, in the years after the Jedi purge. *sobs*

The Making of a Master by [archiveofourown.org profile] Sokaless
Really lovely (if heartbreaking, because canon) look at Ahsoka and Anakin's relationship from Obi-Wan's POV.

Prune for new growth by [archiveofourown.org profile] ineptshieldmaid
Really lovely look at Rey deciding what to do with her hair after she joins the Resistance.

Unfold Your Own Myth by [archiveofourown.org profile] Thistlerose
While Rey sips her tea, Leia stands behind her and combs the knots out of her hair. Her hands are cool and gentle and if, from time to time, they seem to shake, Rey doesn't say anything. It should feel strange, being fussed over by this woman she barely knows, but there's a connection between them that's deeper than grief, deeper than the need for amends. Rey senses it, but she's too tired, too overwhelmed to think about it now. All she can think is, This must be what it's like to be someone's daughter. This must be what it's like to feel safe. ♥REY♥ Lovely.

Bucky makes a friend of the alien beast from the end of Thor 2 while he's recovering. Adorable!

The Cat-King's Guest by [archiveofourown.org profile] onethingconstant
Bucky does his healing in Wakanda, under the auspices of T'Challa. Really lovely.

like a piece of the moon by [archiveofourown.org profile] noharlembeat
The story of how Captain America gets his shield back at the end of CATWS. *sobs* Oh my heart. This is an absolutely adorable outsider POV.

world looking in by [archiveofourown.org profile] irnan
They didn't sit next to each other in meetings; they rarely left the building together, and Natasha never, ever called him James in public; usually he called her Romanov, sometimes Nat, the same way Steve did. They worked together as flawlessly as they always had, but she was fairly sure that most of their friends thought they didn't much like each other. Only she caught Steve frowning sometimes, when something happened where they could or should have brought up their relationship, or at least relaxed a little.

She couldn't. James couldn't. It was fine to touch and kiss and hold hands when the people around them were perfect strangers, or when they could play a role of a kind, but as soon as it was all a sea of familiar faces and cameras in strategic positions she froze up into a kind of panic mode
. Bucky and Natasha move in together, but don't tell anyone they're a couple. Oh my heart.

Stupidly hot Steve/Bucky/Natasha porn.

the last kick of courage by [archiveofourown.org profile] jackzimmermann
Wistful, meditative look at Jack deciding to be honest with himself about what he wants, and doing something to get it. Lovely.

Jack poses for the ESPN body issue. Bitty tries to deal with it. Hilarious and hot and adorable.

Jack and Bitty and physics. Oh, Jack.

one step, not much (but it said enough) by [archiveofourown.org profile] defcontwo
Bitty, after the kiss. Oh heart.

sugar & the mint by [archiveofourown.org profile] misandrywitch
She disassembles ovens and covers canvases with paint in the studio she gets to use for working at the gallery, and he works in a tiny office downtown, and their fridge is covered in pictures from their friends' lives, and Lardo has framed every picture Jack ever gave them. They hang in their bedroom, next to the pieces from her senior thesis, their diplomas, books they haven't bothered to shelve and dirty-cheap paintings that Lardo adds improvements to. And there's too much sugar in her drink, but she doesn't mind it. Lovely established relationship future fic for Shitty and Lardo.

Harry Potter

73 Aberdeen by [archiveofourown.org profile] noharlembeat
AU in which Sirius is sorted into Slytherin and everything is different, except for the things that are the same, like the fact that he and Remus are still stupidly, tragically in love and it doesn't end well at all. *sobs*

Let Nothing You Dismay by [archiveofourown.org profile] montparnasse
On the way out, one hand on the doorknob and a paper bag for Remus in the other, he realizes just how often he's done this, newspapers and chocolate and healing spells murmured in the shrill glass shards of countless dawns, how many times his feet have taken him, automatically, through these same streets, the same doors, led him, always, to Remus. Outside, in the yellow sweep of the sun, Sirius can feel his heart beating with something almost tangible, flooding him like knowledge: a word, a word, a word.

Oh, he thinks, a mouth like thunder. Oh. There are names for this.

There are names for this.
Achingly beautiful Sirius/Remus set over Christmas, 1979.

That Old Black Magic by [archiveofourown.org profile] fallovermelikestars
AU in which Remus doesn't attend Hogwarts until he's 16, and he immediately falls for Sirius Black. Oh heart. (Some anachronisms, but I enjoyed it anyway)

Interesting take on what might happen when the kids find Glendower, and then the aftermath, with a lovely Ronan/Adam/Blue relationship at the heart of it.
