    Summary

    'Marry me,' Gareth had written. 'I will,' Willa had replied. That was before the War. A year later, she sets out to keep that promise —or find closure—with a hired sellsword at her side. For Gondor, and the Pelennor. A tale as old as time, as plain as Willa herself…. Or is it?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    utterly beautiful. lovely imagery and turns of phrase. apt and painful portrayal of inferiority complexes born from careless cruelty. lovely, endearing and frustrating characterization that made them appear vividly in mind's eye. the writing was a delight. her small spelling mistakes showing that she'd worked hard to learn and to retain the knowledge, however short or lacking her schooling was? that stings. I forewent sleep for this - and gladly.

    Summary

    One cannot leave Angband unscathed. The land itself corrupts and destroys man and beast from the inside, as the sons of Feanor are unlucky enough to find out. And as Celegorm and Curufin go on a desperate search for a cure, they end up finding something (or rather, someone) quite unexpected...

    Summary

    Jane Elizabeth Holney. Her full name. Jane stared at it on the envelope in front of her, sealed, for better or for worse, with her decision.

    So many things had led her here. Sauron, a Convergence, a Keeper, a ring, and the fate of the world cradled in the hands of a depressing few. And Elves, of course.

    Or—just one, if she wanted to be honest.

    Rain pattered against the large window, and Jane rested her head against the cool stone wall. The sound of the road and the birds singing, faintly, reached her ears as everyone slept.

    How would she be remembered, in the end? A threat to global security? A hero? A delusional, bare-brained scientist with a deathwish for the world?

    Did it matter?

    Summary

    Her mother named her Naehaerys, and said she was the daughter of a Prince.

    Everyone else called her Nettles, and said she was the daughter of a whore.

    Ever since she was born, Nettles struggled to know who she was. Every night she had dreams of another world, a better one than the one she lived in. One filled with fantastical creations, with warmth and food aplenty... yet every morning, she woke to try and scrape together another day of survival on Driftmark. With each year that passed, she remembered more, until one day it all came crashing down upon her.

    The Dance of the Dragons approached, and she refused to die alone in some forsaken mountain in the Vale. It was a fine vow for a girl to make, the trouble was she had no idea how to change her fate... and she would soon learn some things are better left in destiny's hands.

    Summary

    Rhaenyra should’ve known that Alicent and her precious Greens wouldn’t take this lying down. Alicent’s sons are fostering with Rhaenyra on Dragonstone and that terrifies the queen consort. As they are both privy to one simple truth: Aemond and Aegon’s shifting loyalties are the key to turning the tides.

    Or, in which Rhaenyra doesn't alienate her own family, she consolidates it. She recognizes that she will sooner lose this war of succession if she doesn't take initiative to solidify a coalition of supporters but more crucially a legion of her own kin—a legion of dragons—before Alicent and her green ilk can establish their footing.

    Summary

    [A 90's Era X-Men Self-Insert]

    "There is an old adage among lawyers that says: If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table." – Martin A. Davis, Jr.

    Mutant law is an emergent field, more or less the wild west of the legal profession, and on a good day, you're lucky if the law and facts aren't all dead-set against you. And when your list of recurring clients includes the Wielder of Cerebro and the Master of Magnetism?

    Well... suffice to say, there is plenty of pounding the table to be done.

    Summary

    Homecoming AU.

    Ben and May divorced before Peter’s parents died, so when Ben is murdered Peter goes into foster care. It takes just a tiny taste of superpowers for Peter to decide he doesn’t want to put up with his horrible foster father anymore—the streets are infinitely more appealing. All he wants is to be Spider-Man anyway.

    So he leaves.

    Simple.

    Simple, that is, until Iron Man needs Spider-Man’s help. Peter isn’t about to turn down an opportunity to fight alongside Tony Freaking Stark, but he also isn’t going to let his hero know that his recruit is a fifteen-year-old homeless dropout. So they strike a deal. Peter will help Tony. In return, the mask stays on.

    And that’s when things get complicated.

    Summary

    What would you do in the villain’s place?

    An adult consciousness wakes in the body of three-year-old Joffrey Baratheon. He's armed with foreknowledge and a lifetime's worth of experience… and it is not enough. He is still Cersei's son, still Robert's "heir," and still sitting on a secret that could kill him and everyone he loves. And the more he builds to protect himself, the more he has to lose. This is a story about governance and grief, about the cost of necessary choices, and about what it means to love people who have the power to destroy you.

    It is also, somewhat accidentally, the tale of how King Joffrey I Baratheon completely revolutionized the Westerosi shipbuilding industry, and with it altered the balance of power across the entire known world.

    Summary

    A man wakes up in a frozen hut south of the Wall with no memory, no name, and a status screen. He dies of hypothermia three times before he figures out how to keep a fire going.

    No noble birth. No convenient canon insertion point. Just a villager in the Gift in 288 AC, with a leveling system, an autosave that rewinds time when he dies, and the growing suspicion that he's not the first person the system has chosen.

    Gamer AU. OC SI. Slow-burn progression fantasy. Canon divergence.

    Summary

    In the aftermath, a thousand and one deaths flash before his eyes, and Ares feels them all. Every sword. Every spear. Every knife.

    Over and over again, he breathes his last breath, sometimes at the hands of another soldier and sometimes at the hands of himself. He stares at his own face, caked in blood and viscera, and hates himself for loving it.

    War is his vice of choice. It is his lover. His best friend. His worst enemy. He hates to love it, but no matter how he tries, he can’t seem to escape its clutches.

    He’s not quite sure if he really wants to.

    - - -

    It’s ironic, isn’t it? Ares hates all of Poseidon’s children with a vengeful fury, and yet, in this new world of Christianity and Capitalism, Perseus Fucking Jackson is the closest thing he has to a priest.

    Wherein transmigration occurs, but not everybody gets to start out as a baby. ANBU Dog is also, by far, the worst captain ever, and Kagura very much does not recommend working with him because he’s a loony piece of shit.

    A gripping tale of ANBU shenanigans, disturbing romances, and excessive gore. Highly self indulgent.

    Summary

    Sakura is lost, injured and alone in a forest far from home. The circumstances that led up to this are much less clear. A mysterious mental fog blankets her mind, impenetrable and obfuscating her memories.

    After scouring the land, she arrives at the horrifying conclusion that she’s been transported back in time to the Warring States era. Incredibly out of her depth, she has to navigate the old nation’s dangerous climate without becoming ensconced within their politics – a feat easier said than done, for a clan-less kunoichi.

    It's just her luck that the Uchiha start sprouting from the woodwork. It seems she can't escape them, no matter what century she's in.

    Summary

    Aragorn’s hunt for Gollum was interrupted by what seemed at first but a village disturbance—a stray child in distress, or so it appeared.

    Yet there could be no mistaking the points of her ears, nor the light that lingered in her gaze. Long had the Eldar ceased bringing children into a fading world.

    Yet here she sat, perched on a common oak, her bare feet swinging, her copper hair alight.

    How had she come to be? And why, when all wisdom said such joy had passed from the world?
