    Summary

    Harry’s survived impossible odds all his life: his hateful relatives, their abrupt decision to kick him out, and then years spent staying alive on the streets of London.

    He’s excellent at surviving impossible situations. His magic powers don’t hurt his odds at all either.

    And now? Getting to go to a school filled with other magical students? Getting a gang of his own? Fighting headmasters who don’t seem to like him and learning occlumency from his professor?

    Life is brill now.

     

    Life is not so ‘brill’ for Severus Snape who sees a small boy covered in scars and filled with trauma and worries about how to best fulfill his vow to keep the boy safe when the boy has a knack for brewing constant chaos.

     

    Welcome to Year One.

    Summary

    It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.

    Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

    Summary

    Tubbo lost his last life. However, instead of ending up in limbo, he wakes up in a strange new land with people he doesn't quite trust and an admin who reminds him way too much of Dream. How can he get out of here and back to the SMP? Tommy needs him! He doesn't have time to frolic around with these "hermits" despite how welcoming and comforting they are...

    (Wilbur is in a few chapters because those were written before everything came to light. Chapter 15 explains my thoughts. There are warnings for when Wilbur is in a chapter as well as a summary in the end notes of each of those chapters if you can't read him right now. Stay safe everyone!!)

    Summary

    No one ever promised Technoblade safety before.

    Plenty of people have offered him plenty of things, but they were always presented as deals. Techno gives himself to them in exchange for something: renown, his life, an escape route off a dying planet. It all seems the same after enough time, and this latest server is no different. The revolution that was supposed to come of it never did.

    Techno is tired and done with it all. Frankly, he doesn't even care if there's an age minimum for retiring. If he wants safety, he obviously has to make it for himself.

    ---

    Techno has seen too much, and done far more, in his very short life. When he lands on Hermitcraft by accident, he swears it'll be nothing more than a bump on his road away from people and the trouble they bring.

    But the Hermits may just have something more to offer him, something no one else ever could...

    Summary

    Besides, these footsteps were different. They were very distinctly not Etho’s.
    Tango cursed to himself, running frantically through a list of Hermits in his head - who walked like that? - and squeezed shut his eyes, shivering despite himself.
    The footsteps stopped.

    Tango opened his eyes.

    There was a boy in Decked Out.
    There was a boy in Decked Out, who was very clearly not a Hermit.

    OR!

    The ground was approaching. Tommy’s hands opened in the air, reached out, tensed, clawed, like he was trying to catch something.
    Like somebody was reaching out to him.
    His fingers clasped around nothing, reached again, stretching out in his efforts to clasp onto the hand-

    And for one, crucial moment, he did.

    It fizzled at his fingertips, shocking all the way up his arm, and he tightened his hold on it and pulled.
    The world went dark.

    Summary

    The void was cold. It was empty, silent, and so dark Tommy could barely see his fingertips when he stretched out his arm. It was numbing. Terrifying… Peaceful almost. Tommy honestly had no idea how long he had been in the darkness. Minutes felt like hours, and hours like seconds. He had no idea how he’d even ended up here unless this was death. For a little while he had tried screaming. The blackness swallowed his voice, and his throat hurt so he stopped trying. Time passed. Or maybe it didn’t. He blacked out. When he came to, he was falling from the sky. Expletives burst from his mouth as he fell toward the grass. By the time he hit the ground, his voice had been silenced. The cracked screen of his communicator showed him a blaring red message.
    Or
    Tommy finds his way to Hermitcraft... And maybe to healing.

    Summary

    On top of the pillar, Tommy chooses life and leaps for the water, ready to leave exile behind. At that same moment, the server backs up as he falls, suspending him between life and death and the ensuing glitch pushes him from one server to another.

    The Hermits have built a little family on their server, bonded through past trauma and instincts. So when a traumatized and scarred teenager crashes in, they’re happy to step up and be the family he needs.

    Even if he doesn’t want them to be.

    He doesn't wind up where he expected - and there are a lot of differences between Dream SMP and Hermitcraft.

    Tommy's a fighter, though. He'll be fine.

    Summary

    Red Hood’s modulated voice is bone-chilling. Nearly every sleaze-bag in Crime Alley had become accustomed to the gravely robotic nature of it. The unnatural shifts in his words and the variations in pitch being just ever so slightly off putting. Borderline uncanny, yet everyone who’s heard it knows there’s a human behind that voice. A man who choses to blow a hole through someone’s skull without so much of an afterthought.

    Though, no one had ever heard that voice scream.

    Not until tonight.

     

    Or, Red Hood is captured, Nightwing saves him and while helping him afterwards, puts the wrong puzzle pieces together and confronts him which does not go quite how he planned.
