Summary
AU after the first X-Men movie. While traveling through Canada on Xavier's tip, Logan comes across a strange mutant caged in a freak show. He can get him out, but actually saving him will be a longer process, and may take an entire family of mutants. And they all might just insist on saving Logan along the way, too.
Features bigotry, multiple scenes of "spot the comics guest star", lots of road trips, and gratuitous amounts of Canada.

yesterday's blues by Jazer

Summary
Kayama isn’t actually bad. She first introduces herself with a pretty speech about giving their all and striving to be the best, because Plus Ultra, and then she just jumps right into their faces about needing to beat the 1-A class, the hero course, because she has a bet running.
Inspiring, truly.
(In which Shinsou Hitoshi still wants to be a hero, even if that means cleaning up an old, cluttered gym, befriending that one quiet kid in his class, taking care of kids at his foster home and fighting insomnia on a daily basis.)

Summary
"Maybe we had all kinds of family in Ishval, uncles and aunts and cousins and grandparents.”
“What do they matter?” Ed muttered. “It wasn’t like any of them showed up to help when she got sick. Or when she died. We were all by ourselves, we don’t owe them anything.”
Al looked at him for a long, terrible, drawn out moment before he said, very carefully: “Ed. Maybe they didn’t show up because they were dead.”Trisha Elric was Ishvalan, and her sons are born with brown skin and red eyes. In some ways, this changes nothing - they still attempt human transmutation, they still join the millitary in their search of a way to get their bodies back, but this time the Ishvalan genocide and the crimes of Amestris are not secrets to be discovered, but an ever present thread interwoven with their lives.

Fortunately, Scott and Sheriff Stilinski are there to help, and to nag Derek until he helps, too.
