Summary
There's a balance to tragedy and eucatastrophe. Even Marred, Arda was made with goodwill and divine grace - there is love and mercy and forgiveness even for those that would not accept it, even for those who don't yet realize they need it.
So sometimes you get the second chance you didn't ask for.

Summary
In the first year of the Fourth Age, after three thousand one hundred and thirty-eight unhappy, furious, grieving years of being reborn into an Aman that has been trying very hard to pretend that everything is absolutely fine ever since Morgoth was banished from the world, Fingon the Valiant walked through the Door of Night into the Void to seek the fëa of Maedhros, Kinslayer, Self-Slain, who hated himself so much upon the moment of his death that he chose Everlasting Darkness voluntarily.
He left behind an extended family who is shocked and appalled to learn of this decision - and that Námo the Doomsman was the one holding the Door open for him.
Or: The last time one of the House of Finwë fell at the hands of a Vala in Aman, the Silmarillion happened.

Summary
“That’s easy enough.” Sauron nodded at Fingon, “I want this one.”
“No,” said Maedhros, the same moment Maglor said “why?” Fingon’s own voice was stuck in his throat.
“He’s late for his wedding,” said Sauron.

Summary
Tim Drake and Conner Kent get thrown into the MHA universe at full speed.
They adjust rather quickly.-
"Gummy?" He looked over at Kon questioningly while Recovery Girl went to her desk. "You didn't mention that to me after your exams."
Kon scratched his cheek.
"It's for raising your blood sugar, her quirk makes it drop so she gives you a way to raise it quickly." He explained before Recovery Girl could. "She's partial to hero shaped gummies."
Tim hummed. A small packet of All Might gummies hit him between the eyes before he could catch it.
"Have a nice day, Dears!"

Summary
Richard Grayson was never supposed to be King. That had been the agreement, when Bruce took a Romani boy from a travelling circus in as his ward. He would not—could not—be Bruce's heir.
But now that Bruce is dead and Dick is left scrambling to protect his family from the whims of Gotham's Court, Dick might just have to make history.

Summary
Wei Wuxian wakes in a world too young for him.
He wakes in the past with his elder golden core and the memory of an entire lifetime spent beside Lan Wangji.
The cultivation world expects a reckless prodigy.
Instead, it is granted a man who has already survived war, buried grief, loved Lan Wangji for over a century and become something dangerously close to immortal.
Unfortunately for the cultivation world, Wei Wuxian at one hundred and forty-five is a far more terrifying thing than Yiling Laozu ever was.
(Or: Wei Wuxian comes back absurdly overpowered, emotionally 'somewhat' stable, deeply in love and grief and semi prepared to fix literally everything.)
