    Summary

    The rumors regarding dragons are as multitudinous as they are lurid. Wild dragons will steal vast quantities of gold and other precious jewels from across the country and hoard it. They shall keep virgin maidens captive in their caves. Even tamed beasts will sometimes go wild, devouring innocent women and children. Dragons can take on a facsimile of human shape by consuming a man's blood.

    Upon joining the Corps, Laurence is quite taken aback to find all these rumors false.

    All except the last.

    Summary

    Five days. May Parker stays in bed for five days, only ever leaving for the bathroom or to heat food in the kitchen she knows she’ll barely eat. Someone knocked on the door, once. It must have been Happy, or it might’ve been Norman: she’d heard footsteps, the twisting of a key in the lock and the creak as someone let themselves in. She thinks they stood there, in the doorway, calling to her softly, but all she could hear was his voice. Peter’s. Her little boy. And she couldn’t take the heartbreak of knowing if she turned around, he wouldn’t be there.

    Or

    Peter Parker is dead. And everyone must deal with the fallout.

    Summary

    Steve Rogers is a single dad in Brooklyn.

    Tony Stark is a genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist. And Iron Man.

    It turns out that they both lost something in the Afghan desert, but arguably gained something more precious as well. First, though, they had to have a chance to realize it. It begins with the first day of the rest of their lives (and perhaps ends with other cliches, like happily ever after).

    Summary

    Ninety-six years after the last appearance of Sozin’s Comet, a freshly burned and banished thirteen-year-old Prince Zuko discovers a strange boy frozen in an iceberg.

    When Zhao interferes with Zuko's plans to deliver the Avatar to his father, Aang helps Zuko and Iroh escape. They take refuge from the Fire Navy in the abandoned Air Temples, where the young Avatar searches for any remnants of his people that he can find. Along the way, Aang teaches an indoctrinated Zuko about the true nature of the Air Nomads, and the Fire Prince must come to terms with the fact that everything he has been taught was a lie, while the Dragon of the West must face the sins of his past.

    Eventually, Aang and Zuko become close friends, and Zuko begins to feel things he has never felt for anyone before. However, Zhao will not give up easily, and will do whatever it takes to capture the Avatar and his traitor accomplices.

    (A retelling of AtLA exploring the friendship and eventual romance that could have developed between Aang and Zuko if the circumstances of their meeting had been different.)

    Summary

    “No.” Tony shook his head, heart beating wild and rapid, the monitors he was hooked up to a cacophony of sound. “You might have missed it, Strange, but last time I tried to prepare the world for what was coming, half the universe died. Why me?” Why not someone else, why not Steve fucking Rogers, the man with the plan, why not Rhodey, why not Pepper, why him?

    “Because you’re a scientist. A futurist. We chose you, Stark. But you have to accept.”

    Tony didn’t want to.

    “You’re going to regret it,” Tony said quietly. The beeping of the monitors had slowed, the panic had faded away leaving only a quiet exhaustion.

    “I don’t think so.” And Strange sounded so sure.

    Tony closed his eyes. He wanted to say no, wanted to let go of the weight of the world that had already crushed him. But he couldn’t do that. Couldn’t do that when Strange had used his last chance to save the world, banking on him. “Alright.” He swallowed hard, forcing himself to nod. “Okay. Send me back.”

    Summary

    Harley is adrift, bitter, and resentful after losing Tony and his family as he knew it three years ago. When he inherits a rundown house in Brooklyn, he abandons the shattered remains of his dreams, his family, and himself for something he can fix.

    Peter grieves as he always has; he buries himself in responsibility and pretends everything is fine. It works until he moves in with Harley, who doesn't suffer fools or liars. The problem is Peter has been fooling himself for so long he can't separate the mask from the truth.

    Summary

    The Rogues are back; Tony Stark couldn't even be mad about it - it was his idea after all. He's an Avenger and that means protecting the Earth at any cost - even if he has to deal with a certain star-spangled man and his sullen sidekick. After all, he's been through worse in his life; the loss of his wife and the disappearance of his son 12 years ago. Compared to that, this would be a walk in the park.

    Bucky Barnes is back on US soil as a free man. But freedom is more than just physical. On top of that, Steve is desperate for him to be the man he was before. The only problem is; that man is long dead.

    Peter Parker has been through the mill but he knows he just had to adapt, roll with the (many) punches and keep going. Spider-man is his safe place now, the one time he could truly feel like himself. Like he is making a difference. He'd make sure no one would suffer like he has, even if he has to track down the perpetrator himself.

    Summary

    “What’s going on?” Tony asks, walking over to the security guard. The man is sitting at his desk and talking to a kid who’s gesturing animatedly. “Is it bring your kid to work day or something?”

    “Hi!” the kid says, smiling brightly and waving at Tony. “I’m Peter.”

    “He says he’s, uh…” The guard seems to be at a loss.

    “You’re my dad!” Peter says, still smiling brightly.

    Tony’s whole body flinches.

    ---

    An AU of The Game Plan, set right after Civil War and featuring a very lonely Tony Stark with poor coping mechanisms; a very young Peter Parker who is losing track of how many lies he’s told; and a very busy Pepper Potts who is starting to see her ex-boyfriend in a new light.

    Summary

    “Oh yeah, um,” The guy was blind, and he also didn’t remember a thing about the murder trial. Peter needed to play it cool, act like he’s never met the guy before. Because, technically, he hadn’t. “I’m, uh, I’m Peter Parker, I’m here to interview with you, Mr. Nelson and Ms. Page? For the, um, receptionist position?”

    Mr. Murdock looked puzzled for a moment before it seemed to click. “Oh, Mr. Parker! I didn’t realize it was you. It’s good to meet you,” His smile returned, and he extended his hand. Peter shook it hard enough to seem professional, but not so hard as to break the guy's hand.
