Give them blood, blood (gallons of the stuff) by MossyThing

Summary
“You were watching us last night,” the girl observed, and the boy lifted his gaze to look first at her, then at Eddie. A confused frown seemed to be permanently branded onto his face, mixed with a squint that screamed of a headache. No wonder, Eddie mused, getting a closer look at his bruises. He was probably concussed, should have stayed in bed. So naturally that it seemed like nothing else could have happened at that moment, the two reached out for one another and tangled their fingers together. Eerie, Eddie thought with a shudder, but also strangely endearing.
“Not much else to do around here,” he answered her statement somewhat belatedly with a shrug of his shoulder.
Or, ever since Eddie was admitted to this psych ward, he has been dying of boredom.

Summary
There was a chittering noise from the left. The soldier whipped around, pushed Erica bodily behind him and aimed his weapon at the dark space between two houses. He was breathing heavily, she noticed. Maybe he was a newbie after all, then.
While on patrol through Hawkins, a year after the world started to end, Erica is abducted by a soldier. Good thing she can count on her teammates to rescue her.

Summary
Und gut, vielleicht verstieß er hiermit gegen den buchstäblich niemals festgelegten Kodex der Ausreißer, aber das hier war verdammt besorgniserregend, und er war sich ziemlich sicher, dass er die nächsten paar Monate nicht schlafen können würde, wenn er nicht genau jetzt den Mund aufmachte.
„Bist du vor jemandem weggelaufen?“ Sie sah zu ihm zurück, dieses Mal noch länger, so lange, dass er begann, auf seiner Unterlippe zu kauen, während sie über seine Worte nachzudenken schien.
„…Ja,“ sagte sie endlich.Oder,
Eddie trifft Elfie in Staffel 2 an einer Bushaltestelle und will sicherstellen, dass es ihr gut geht. Beide von ihnen verstehen beinahe jeden Teil der folgenden Unterhaltung falsch.

Summary
Thank Elbereth, she thinks as she tugs her cloak carefully around his shoulders, thank Elbereth that his eyes still shine.
She had feared them dulled, like those of the Noldor Galadriel had told her of when her mother could not hear, who had entered the Helcaraxë with her and her kindred but had not made it to the other side. Who had perished, though the ice never opened its gaping maw beneath them. Who had met their end with a tired smile on bloodless lips and frost in their lashes.
But here is yet hope, yet love. She has not lost him.

Summary
“Are you going to disappear again?” she asked. Her words were quiet, but they still pierced through the air clearly, and Elrond had no problem understanding what she said. He looked at the sky. The night was nearing its blackest, and he knew Arien set sail here long before she woke them in Beleriand.
“Not yet,” he said.
Sometimes, late at night, Elrond and Elros share a dream of white shores, a path through the woods and a Cottage at the end of it - and of a woman, who keeps insisting that she is their mother, who drowned long ago. Obviously, as Elros likes to remind his twin, she has to be lying.

Batman is a Very Serious Scary Vigilante by akcugrai

Summary
It starts when Nightwing accidentally calls Batman dad.
Barry thinks it's perhaps the funniest thing to happen in the history of ever. Then, he starts to notice that The Dark Knight actually does—kinda sorta maybe—act like a dad to the Gotham vigilantes?
It only gets weirder from there.
OR
5 times the League saw the Gotham vigilantes treating Batman as their dad, and 1 time they (kind of) admitted it.

Summary
Jason’s life is actually going alright for once. He’s got a pretty good thing going on with Roy, Red Hood’s work in the Alley is really starting to make a difference, and the Bats (mostly) leave him alone these days. But then all of a sudden Bruce is in the news, there’s a new bill threatening sex workers in Gotham City Council, and Jason is thrown back into a struggle he never believed he’d confront again. Turns out becoming a harm reductionist comes with a lot more organizing drama, grief, and trauma recovery than anticipated.

Summary
“It’s Jonathan Byers,” Eddie continues. “I don’t get it! You, Wheeler—What’s the appeal with this guy? What’s the allure? No offence, Byers.”
“None taken,” Jonathan says, unfazed.
“I mean, it’s like being attracted to a piece of paper,” Eddie says.
Jonathan frowns. “Some taken.”
Eddie can't wrap his head around Steve dating Jonathan. Jeff is an involuntary witness to, apparently, every single discussion about it.

Summary
“What do you mean what happened?”
“I just…” Jonathan’s eyes flicked up past Steve at the sound of the backdoor creaking open. “Mom.”
Steve turned to see Mrs. Byers’ in the doorway with a glass of water and a bottle of something. Probably the painkillers she’d promised. She gave him a matching look of concern and confusion, although she was quicker to conceal it.
He started to feel hot and embarrassed with the reaction he was getting. It hadn’t been meant to slow anything down, let alone draw everyone’s eyes to his bare chest. He leaned down to grab his soaking wet shirt off the back steps, although it was really just an excuse to look down and away from everyone’s gazes.
Mrs. Byers’ put out a hand as if to tap him on the shoulder and then drew it back like she was worried about hurting him.
“Steve, honey, you can borrow one of Jonathan’s shirts."
