An alternative way in which Grace handles the news of Stratt's betrayal and his own ominous fate.

Summary
“Oh, no you don’t!” Quaritch’s hand dug into his arm painfully, keeping Spider atop the ikran before he could slide off while his other arm secured Spider against his chest. “Did you really think I was gonna fall for that again?” Quaritch growled at him, the last thing Spider heard before the man’s kuru connected with his.
The Factory Ship is sinking, pulled closer towards the flux devil with every minute. Spider offers himself to Quaritch in exchange for Neytiri and Tuk's freedom, but what if Quaritch knew the offer was just a play for time? In which he takes matters into his own hands and brings Spider back to the Ash camp.

Summary
What if that night in the forest, Varang takes a little more interest in Spider? Instead of seeing him as an intriguing but useless human, she believes him to be a representation of all that Eywa holds dear. After all, why did the Great Mother choose to save him, but not any of her own people? It is clear Eywa has favourites, and Varang can't let that stand.
A canon divergent AU where Varang takes Spider back to the Ash Camp, Eywa's prize now in her possession. And she has plans for him. Will anybody be able to rescue Spider in time?

Summary
“It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog-” Spider stopped abruptly as Kiri held her arm out, tense and alert.
Immediately he scanned the trees ahead of them. “What’s wrong?”
A second later, he needn’t have asked. For a figure so hideous it belonged in a horror story appeared slowly from behind a tree up ahead, his ash grey skin slathered with red paint, crawling slowly and deliberately toward them.
Spider's knife was in his hand in an instant.OR
Spider's journey (canon compliant, missing scenes) from being taken by Quaritch outside the reef, through his trials at Bridgehead. -

Summary
“Take a breath, don’t make me arrest you.”
The officer whose voice Spider recognised had his knee pressed into Spider’s back, but as Spider stopped writhing, he relinquished his weight and helped Spider sit up against the wall.
“Shit,” Spider said, throwing his head back and closing his eyes.
“I recognise you,” officer Quaritch said slowly, tilting his head to the side. “You’re that kid without a name or address.”
OR
Spider has been doing the best he can since his mom died when he was seven years old. With no other family to take care of him, he was handed over to the care system until he couldn't take it any more, eventually deciding he was better off on his own. But this life has led him down a worrying path, one that gets darker the further down he goes. As fate would have it, it also leads him to one person who could turn his life around.
This is a oneshot only - additional chapters are alternate POVs and bonus scenes.

Summary
Spider has grown up bouncing between the kids home, and a long line of foster families. He knows the system. When unfortunate circumstances mean he has to be moved once again, he is heartened to find himself on the doorstep of the Sully family - a warm and welcoming household living the American dream. But how long can domestic bliss last before Spider's family history catches up to him? It always does eventually, one bitter ex marine makes sure of that...
Or, a Spider-centric modern AU 😁

Summary
Spider has been captured by a group of RDA agents and kept at the mercy of the RDA for months. He has no idea of his father's clone's existence, and it's not until much later that Miles Quaritch happens to walk through the cells at Bridgehead, discovering a beaten, bruised and bloody boy in one of the final cells. They lock eyes before he reads the name on the door: Miles Socorro.
An AU where Spider is never captured by Quaritch, and neither is any the wiser of each other's existence until much later.
Based on a tumblr prompt (thank you ceefeewee) 💞💙
