For the @sambuckylibrary TFATWS Anniversary Event 2024

Week 5: No Powers Au

Here are some fic recs! There are so many wonderful fics out there, so these are just a small sampling from the tag. (I thought it was a more productive use of my time while at work today 🤫) Pretty sure I've recommended some of these before.

Apologies for my terrible summaries!
