Summary
The year is 235 after the Galactic Advent. Civilizations across the Milky Way, united under the Galactic Federation, now struggle against the enigmatic and unrelenting Space Pirate threat. To combat this foe, the Galactic Federal Police keep watchful outposts in every corner of federally-controlled space. On the savage world known as SR-388, a biologic research team has just discovered something which should have been left forgotten beneath the surface.
This is a retelling of the Metroid story with a focus on worldbuilding and character development. It is also an experiment, being my first narrative work. Please let me know what you think-- not just about the story, but about the writing style, pacing, characterization, etc. I aspire to write original fiction, so your criticism at this point will be immeasurably helpful and greatly appreciated. -

Summary
In a world where Quirks never manifested genetically, humanity took its technological advancements to the next level, setting its eyes on conquering the starts. Mirio, after a decade of service, was considered a successful cadet of the HPSC - Hero Space Travel Comission - the international division of the combined human space exploration programme, if only for the fact that his efforts and abilities were not recognised to their full potential due to the nature of his dangerous Quirk. Labelled as dangerous, he was only allowed to supervise missions and guide more successful and steady recruits, even if they lacked his expertise.
All his missions were a decided success, although he always felt an unease at being unable to contribute more, until one awry convoy mission goes wrong when he puts his life in danger to save a mysterious stranger he undoubtedly feels drawn to. Amajiki Tamaki is a mysterious alien of unknown origins that kept his secrets tight to his skin, but to which Mirio feels drawn to, nevermind potential dangers or his mission.

Summary
It's a time of turmoil for the Galactic Empire. Rebel nationalists continue to gain influence throughout the galaxy, fighting a war of attrition even as the Empire tightens its hold to bring security to the people. With the Jedi Order a distant memory and the galactic senate fast on its way to being dismantled, the iron grip of Emperor Stark is nearly complete.
All of this is but a distant concern to Gwen Stacy, who has spent the latter half of her life safely ensconced aboard her father's Imperial cruiser while he goes about mundane security details to keep the peace and maintain order. It was supposed to be a safe existence, if also boring at times. Her quiet life is thrown for a loop one day when the ship finds itself being boarded by pirates, and Gwen is thrust out into the midst of a conflict that had previously seemed so inconsequential. Without Dad, without the trappings of her previous life, will she be able to find her way back?
And once she learns of the galaxy-wide strife caused by the Empire, will she even want to?

Summary
"Daddy can you pass me a napkin?" The entire crew goes still, some completely frozen even with food in their hands. Everyone slowly looks at Y/N, including Jimin, who is mortified. She sits there, turning red. "U-Uh, I said baby. I don't know what you guys are looking at me for." "That's funny, I don't remember you calling me baby last night."
~~~
Jimin lost his home. His family. When Captain Kim Namjoon saves his life, Jimin isn't sure how to start over. But he's given a second chance when first contact is made.
When you showed up.

Summary
Anthony J Crowley is a disgraced Bounty Hunter with a reputation for taking on the most dangerous jobs. When he overhears two of his former colleagues talking about a 'Treasure That Talks', he decides to take on the job himself. Unfortunately for him, the job is put on hold when his ship crash lands on a desolate planet inside the Uncharted Zone. Fortunately, he is rescued by a very strange, very kind, and very, very beautiful alien that calls himself Aziraphale.
Aziraphale is an Outcast Celestial, his strange gift making him a pariah. He chose this planet because nobody ever landed here. But now there's this human, and he's witty, clever, and oh so beautiful.
A story of love that transcends all, of treasures that aren't gold, and of two broken individuals who might just be what the other needs.

Forced to work with him, her universe quickly expands beyond her own crew. The more she learns the more apparent it becomes she must unravel the mystery that is her ancestor's home before it's unleashed upon Andromeda.

Summary
Minho suppresses a sigh. Calculatively, he makes a move. “I have a deal to make with you.”
The boy folds his arms. “Shoot.”
Minho leans forward, looking the boy in the eye. “If you can get me off this planet, and back to my homeworld safely-” he feels around his finger, grasping a single ring, and elegantly pulls it off. The design is basic, with a simple pattern carved into the top, but the material itself is the showstopper, with miniature galaxies and subsize supernovas exploding within its core. The boy’s eyes widen as they register the iridescent sheen of a substance so precious wars have been fought over it. Exactly the reaction Minho is digging for.
“-you can be a rich man,” Minho completes with utmost confidence.
Or: Minho is on the run. Somehow, he ends up in the cargo bay of the Broken Compass, way out of his element. Amongst the danger he has to keep at bay, and the secrets he has to guard, the loud, endearingly genuine boy that throws his senses into a disarray isn't helping at all.

Summary
Derek and Stiles were best friends. Since kindergarten, they did everything together. They went to school together, they played on the same baseball team, they attended the same college, they worked on the same space ship. But then a terrible accident happened and Stiles had to stay on earth while Derek went on his next mission – without Stiles. When Derek’s ship disappeared and he and the rest of the crew were considered dead, Stiles wanted to assemble a search party, because he knew for sure that Derek was somewhere out there. Stiles felt in every cell of his body that Derek was still alive…

Summary
(Title a tongue-in-cheek application of some Taylor Swift lyrics)
Daisy no-last-name was a nobody before she got chosen to be the botanist and mechanical engineer for the Ares III mission to Mars. Finally free from her abusive, no-good ex-fiancé Grant Ward, Daisy throws herself into training and soon enough launches into space and docks with the Hermes for the ten month long trip to the red planet. She's lucky. Her crewmates became her family. The ten months pass in a whirl of laughter, science, and early mornings staring out one of the big windows, watching Earth retreat into the darkness.
And then a massive dust storm. Daisy gets struck by a flying piece of debris. Her biomonitor shows a total flatline. For all intents and purposes, she's dead. Phil Coulson, the mission commander, fighting against high winds as he looks for her, falls in the darkness and rips his knee up. They leave. They have to. And for two long months, all of Earth thinks she's dead.
But she isn't.
Daisy wakes up half-buried in sand, utterly alone, with an injury that should have killed her. And by some miracle, she survives.
(AOS/The Martian crossover. Don't need to have read the Martian to understand.)
