Summary
"I might try it for awhile,—just to see how it seems, you know. But if I don't like being a girl you must promise to change me into a boy again."
"Really," said the Sorceress, "that is beyond my magic. I never deal in transformations, for they are not honest, and no respectable sorceress likes to make things appear to be what they are not."

Manslaughter Machines by PitViperOfDoom
Fandoms: Murder Drones (Web Series), The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
13 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
While taking a newly-repaired disassembly drone ship out for a spin, Uzi and N discover that reports of humanity's extinction were greatly exaggerated, the universe is a lot bigger than they first thought, and somehow alien eldritch horrors are still not as bad as capitalism.
Meanwhile, after exploring the grisly remains of a destroyed corporate station, Murderbot finds its body going through some deeply unsettling changes. There's no reason to make a connection between this weird, horrifying metamorphosis and the news of a couple of bots wreaking havoc across the Corporation Rim, until there are far too many reasons to ignore.

Finding Your Way In an Unfriendly Universe by IHopedTheredBeStars
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
15 Jun 2023
Tags
Summary
I find the character of SecUnit 03, a.k.a. Three, intriguing from a storytelling perspective. It is ‘tabula rasa’ in ways that Murderbot is not and cannot be. This takes place during the little-described period of waiting at the end of Network Effect, and will almost certainly be non-canon after System Collapse comes out.
Heed the tags. Three will find its way in the end (because that is how I roll), but it has not escaped the Corporation Rim unscathed. There will be pain, fear, self-doubt, depression, and one very bad decision as Three stumbles its way out of the past.

Summary
I was allowed to interact with home equipment, meaning if I cared to speak to anyone, there were plenty of options:
- Tseyvar Frakes’ personal SecUnit. (I didn’t care to talk to this one, but it did exchange security information with me, which I guess was okay because it improved my performance reliability.)
- HomeHubSystem. (This was an AI Tseyvar put in charge of HubSystem. Do not do this.)
- HomeHubSystem’s maintenance bots. (Recently found out these were autonomous. I hadn’t even checked.)
I did not have permission to speak to:
- Tseyvar Frakes’ FamUnit.

Koby's Awful No-Good Very Confusing Day by okiedokeTM (madelinescribbles)
Fandoms: One Piece (Anime & Manga)
29 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
This is so much bigger than him, Koby realizes, like a bucket of ice water pouring over him. Five minutes ago he saw Luffy get unceremoniously executed by Blackbeard. He didn’t even get a chance to help. And now he’s years back in time, with a laundry list of very vague instructions about what not to do if he wants to prevent that, given to him by a ninja version of himself that kissed him on the mouth.

Mark Watney never manages to make contact with Earth and NASA never realizes that he survived the storm and evacuation on Sol 6.

Summary
The Jikan Jikan no Mi was a fruit capable not of pushing someone through time, but of pushing time through a person. A person's future self is brought to the present and, afterwards, time snaps back to bring their younger self forward. When Luffy collapses at Marineford, its holder comes forward and offers to use her powers rather than let him have a second hormone injection from Iva. The power is not without its risks, but Luffy does not hesitate to accept. If he had a chance to be stronger—or to bring a stronger him in his place, even temporarily—then he would take it.
He would do anything to save Ace.
Or:
Luffy closes his eyes on the Sunny as they sail away from Wano, and he opens them on the battlefield of Marineford.

Summary
Zoro scoffs and moves his captain closer.
“Go get your own.”
Chopper gapes wordlessly. All the rest of Nami’s nakama have a similar expression on their faces, something between stupefied and offended—save Robin, who presses a secret smile behind her hand, and Jimbei, whose rumbling chuckle is just barely audible over the sound of the sea.
Nami—who knows very well what Zoro looks like when he’s trying to get a rise out of someone, who knows very well that she has a claim on Luffy that only a handful of other people in the world share, one that can never be broken or stolen or changed—feels herself bristle, too.
“HE IS OUR OWN!” the majority of one of the most infamous pirate crews in the New World shriek like schoolchildren.

Summary
In which Klaus takes Zeetha from Skifander, instead of Gil. Both twins struggle to fit in roles that were not meant for them. History happens regardless, but the details change.
Note: not a complete rewrite of canon, just some scenes that I think would be fun to play with.

Summary
Agatha did not know she was the daughter of William Heterodyne and Lucrezia Mongfish. She thought she was the beloved ward of Lady Teodora Vodenicharova, and the unexpected but equally beloved companion of Lord Saturnus Heterodyne.
Agatha did not know that the debilitating headaches that earned her the scorn and (worse) the pity of her fellow Mechanicsburgers were caused by the locket her uncle gave her. She thought she was stupid, useless, and broken.
Now she knows she is Lady Agatha Heterodyne, rightful ruler of Mechanicsburg. Now she knows she is a Spark.
When she learns the truth, Agatha inadvertently kicks off a series of events that reopens old wounds, drags secrets into the light, and brings war to the doorstep of the all but defenseless Mechanicsburg. Saturnus struggles to crush his enemies with a town almost as broken as his body; Agatha, determined to undo the chaos she's unleashed, plunges into the depths of Castle Heterodyne.
Raised by a literal saint and the devil incarnate, Agatha - with an unleashed mind, a burning spark, and a band of very unexpected allies - will fight to do the unthinkable: be a good Heterodyne and a good person.
