Sakura is bullied, a dead kekkei genkai is reborn, and things go a little bit...differently. Mokuton!Sakura

Derek’s eyebrows shoot up. And so the realization hits him. “You nearly got yourself killed like a moron for me?” “Partially,” Stiles mutters. “I also did it for all the little boys and girls out there. You know, the ones in comas?” Derek sweeps a hand over his face. He lets it rest over his eyes but Stiles can see his mouth. He’s not exactly grinning but it’s close. It’s so close. “So you want to be the angel on my shoulder, huh?” Derek asks. “I don’t think that’s possible.” “Probably not,” Stiles says. “It’s more likely that I’ll be another devil. I promise I’ll only stab you in the neck with my pitchfork and not up your ass like Peter.”

My name is Sawada Inari and I shouldn’t be here. I remember this story and ‘I’ was never part of it.   But here I am.   Might as well have some fun with all this nifty precognitive knowledge.   ...yeah, that would have been nice.

“I guess I just don’t understand it. How can you just be attracted to a complete stranger?” “That’s the appeal,” Andrew retorts. “What?” “It’s a simple transaction. No complications.” “Complications? Like what?” “Conversation, obligations, baggage,” Andrew says dismissively. “Annoying habits. Emotional intimacy. That sort of thing.” Or: Andrew and Neil meet at bars and talk about life's mysteries.

The Jedi Order's problem is Yoda. No being can wield that kind of power for centuries without becoming complacent at best or corrupt at worst. He has no idea that it's overtaken him; he no longer sees all the little cumulative evils that the Republic tolerates and fosters, from slavery to endless wars, and he never asks, "Why are we not acting to stop this?" Live alongside corruption for too long and you no longer notice the stench. The Jedi cannot help the slaves of Tatooine, but they can help the slavemasters. - Dookus, Yoda's former Padawan, to Darth Sidious

Maybe I’m an old man but goddamn, these vampires with blood dripping down their chins–that’s your food!! THAT’S YOUR FOOD!! Close!! Your!! Mouth!! You think some asshole slobbering chicken noodle soup or yogurt or clam chowder all down themselves would be sexy??? What makes you any different, you sticky-stained slackjawed screwball??? Close your mouth!! Use a napkin!! And for godssakes stop looking so smug, like, “Oooo, I’m a creature of the night look at what sustains me” yeah uh huh a fucking lack of basic hygiene is what I’m seeing and it is not impressive!! At all!! My nephews are three years old and they drool less than you do!! You’re how many centuries old?!?! ACT LIKE IT

Neil is a mobster, Andrew is a cop, but nothing can stop true love.

Neil knows his father was a demigod, knows he was party to a world Neil would be better off remaining oblivious to. But when Neil finds a book said to hold the cursed Andrew of Macedon, he feels the answers he could finally get outweigh the risks. Loosely based on Fantasy Lover by Sherrilyn Kenyon and the title is a Lady Gaga lyric, so don't take this too seriously.

Neil Josten wouldn’t say his life was very magical. His dreams on the other hand. They always seem too real. And then there's the fact that he finds himself returning to one person's dreams.

"Spock. Just say 'I don't trust Starfleet not to mess up the only captain in the fleet who I can train up to my expectations and enjoys running into danger wearing a blindfold as much as I do'."

If Kirk was a maths genius, and never took Pike up on the dare to do better, but still managed to get to Starfleet? This is what that would look like.

In one moment, James T. Kirk is the acting captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise, on his way home to Earth after stopping the Narada. In the next moment, without explanation, James T. Kirk is an Academy cadet on academic probation again, barely two days before Nero will destroy Vulcan. He dares himself to do better. And with a planet on the line and no proof but his own memories, he knows that "better" means he'll need some help.

it’s honestly better to know absolutely nothing about musicians except for their songs. like, don’t learn about them as people AT ALL. what are you supposed to do? fully enjoy the bleachers knowing he’s singing about lena dunham? think about a string of the blandest white men ever while taylor swift is evoking emotion? bop to lying is the most fun a girl can have when you know what panic! looked like when they were teenagers? imagine the sexy yearning nostalgia that selena gomez feels…for justin beiber? picture the faces of anyone british? it’s just not realistic. it can ruin the entire listening experience

In an attempt to save what remains of his mental health, Andrew breaks things off with Neil and travels the world in search of answers, only to find them waiting for him when he gets back home. Or, Andrew Minyard gets his groove back.

Andrew knows something's missing: maybe the mellifluous over the radio can help define it for him.

As a child, Naruto dealt with anger the best way he could--via revenge, screaming into pillows, and picking fights he couldn't win. Meeting the Nine Tailed fox introduces a new option for fun therapy. AKA the fic where Naruto meets the Nine Tails early and they can communicate--they just have nothing nice to say to each other.

For political reasons, Britain asked for a bodyguard. For political reasons, Amestris sent the Fullmetal Alchemist. Unfortunately for both parties, neither Harry nor Ed is happy with the arrangement. Unfortunately for both boys, they're stuck with it.

It's been two long, monotonous years in the Federal Witness Protection Programme, and Neil needs a change in scenery. Europe is supposed to be an opportunity to break out of his rut; the last thing he expects is to find himself blinking at Kevin Day across the dining room table of a tiny guesthouse in the middle of nowhere in rural Ireland.

subway carrot debate. Crying laughing

Everyone on the US national team knows that Andrew Minyard and Neil Josten hate each other, so of course they all think it's hilarious to force them to share a room in the name of 'team harmony' for the entirety of the Exy World Cup. An enemies-to-lovers/professional Exy AU

Wherein Evan actually only has platonic feelings for Zoe Murphy, and manages to explain himself in the computer lab before Connor disappears.

Ed had thought, after the whole Promised Day, homunculus, entire country harvested for alchemical batteries thing, the batshit quotient of his life would have settled down some. He really ought to have topped out the meter with that one. But no. The bullshit is just getting started. “Are you fucking kidding me,” Ed demands. “The wizards?”

His mother always told him he should never trust a wolf. They tell you pretty lies, they use you, and when they don't need you anymore, they tear you apart. Neil is half-mad and desperate, however, and when Wymack asks for his help in exchange for a place in the pack he accepts it. He thinks he knows what to expect from them. He thinks he's ready for it. But what he finds is a near-feral turned wolf, a face from the past he's been running from for years and a family, ready to accept him into it.

This year’s Big Bang fest was awesome to be a part of, with so many amazing fanfics and art pieces to come out of it!  I am beyond impressed by all of those who participated, and so, SO proud of everything you have done!  I look forward to next year!  :D  Here is the compilation of links to every piece submitted to this year’s fest! (Some artists did multiple pieces, so I will try to link each one individually. Sadly, some of the creators did not tag us, so we will simply tag their names!) Also, some of these fics are ongoing and the art will be linked as it is posted!

A simple glance in the right direction at the right time changed the life of a lonely young boy, and through him, the fate of a whole world

Harry did not expect to be reborn as Anakin Skywalker in a galaxy where blue girls were considered sexy, sentient dustbins barely rated a glance and giant slugs were criminal warlords. He took it all of that in stride until The Force started singing in his ear. Good thing there were no prophecies lying around... right?

Harry Potter is done with life. He did everything and all he wanted was to pass on to the next great adventure. Sadly, rules get in the way of this and he must now find a new way to keep living. It's not all bad though. At least he gets another chance to live life his way and on his terms. Warning: Mentions of attempted suicide and other stuff to come.
