  1. Summary

    The upsetting and cross-generational tragedy of a spacefaring royal family is all well and good when you aren’t the inheritor of your entire family’s successes and failures.

    Starstruck is a study in relationships on a galactic scale to explore how trauma doesn’t automatically make terrible choices the right ones. An ongoing exploration of how politics, relationships, and cross-generational trauma all fit together to create a cohesive mess, and then seeing how the people left behind pick up the pieces and carry on.

    It all starts in the halcyon days of Prince Velahnhiris Vaevyr.

  2. Summary

    Bayverse. A series following Sunstreaker's sudden band of misfits on their coincidental jaunt towards Earth as he juggles actually being responsible with the urge to be literally anything but, and the desire to find Sideswipe.
    No one ever said being responsible was this hard. Sunstreaker wanted his damned credits back.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "It's not that I'm nervous," said Gendry, looking up at the manor house that loomed alarmingly in the twilight, windows lit like gateways to his own personal circle of Hell. "It's just that your family has access to nuclear weapons."

    "We'll be fine," said Arya, leading the way. The gravel drive crunched under her combat boots. "They'll likely have forgotten all about you by the time we sit down."

    Gendry's phone buzzed alarmingly

     

    Robb Stark

    If you lay a finger on our sister we will kill you with a stick and bury you under the daylily patch

    Rickon Stark

    WITH THE OTHERS

    [Unknown Number]

    A boy has been given a warning. A boy will heed it or be separated from his manhood.

     

    "No," said Gendry. "I kind of think they won't."

    "You're right," said Arya after they entered and seated themselves around the large dinner table. "They're going to be horrid."

    "Don't be silly," said Catelyn, spearing a boiled carrot with her fork and slicing it into small pieces before feeding it to the family dog.

    "Especially when they find out we're going to Seattle for spring break," continued Arya.

    Robb's glass shattered in his hand.

    "Pass the marmalade," said Arya, while Gendry quietly shifted a hand to cover his balls.

    Summary

    "Hold on, what about Dr. Pepper?" Grace said, refusing to follow with his feet planted, one last excuse why he wouldn't join her to save the world.

    Eva paused. She considered. If that was the only stipulation, she could work with that. "I can get you whatever beverage you like, Dr. Grace."

    Grace grinned for a moment, like he was enjoying a personal joke, then said, "My dog. Dr. Pepper is my dog."

     

    or: you don't even have a dog

    Summary

    In which Loki enters into a poorly-considered wager with his blood-brother Odin and ends up pretending to be Thor's younger brother for an inexcusably long time. (Basically, the Loki from Norse Mythology is the real one, but ends up becoming the MCU Loki on a bet). Pure crack. Oneshot.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "I'll be his younger brother, that way you don't have to worry about me deciding to stage a palace coup."

    "Well, that won't work. Not even Thor could forget he had a younger brother."

    Loki's eyes alit. "He won't have to. I'll turn myself into an infant, and you can raise me up. Since I'll obviously be a magical youth, it won't even have to take very long. And this way, we don't have to get nearly so many people to go along with the deception."

    "Just Frigg," Odin said wryly.

    "She'll think it's hilarious," Loki assured him. "Just picture me running around after you and her, crying 'Mommy! Daddy!' And don't forget Thor in the background, trying not to be jealous of a toddler because it is so beneath him."

    Odin snorted another nose full of mead. "She probably will, actually."

    "Let's ask her."

    Frigg, First of the Goddesses, Weaver of Clouds, Goddess of Marriage, Beloved of Odin, had one thing to say to Loki's bizarre proposition: "I bet you a thousand gold arm bands you won't last more than a week."

    Loki, Blood Brother of Odin, the Sly One, Thief of the Giants, of the Goat, of Brisinga-men, and of Idunn's apples, Harmer of Sif's Hair, and Forger of Evil, was at this point even more drunk than usual. He scowled at Frigg and said, "I bet you a thousand gold arm bands I'll last longer than you. Or Odin."

    Summary

    The six stones balanced each other, acting like the weights on a loom to stabilize the fabric of reality. The threads of each of their powers were needed, and Thanos had destroyed them. It was little wonder the entire universe was rotting away - there was no real recovery happening even after five years. New growth was constantly smothered by new problems, and not just in New Asgard. The Guardians of the Galaxy reported the same on every world they visited. The strife caused by the sudden loss of half of all life - not just peoples but the living plants and animals they ate, the seeds held in grain stores, and the flora and fauna that kept ecosystems in balance with the space they inhabited - was causing more death, misery, and violence even now.

    or

    If the creators of the MCU can just show us Old Man Rodgers and imply that Captain America made a parallel timeline that is the best of all possible worlds for himself then I can show you the brodinsons doing it for themselves too.

    Summary

    Loki is her consolation prize.
     
    He is the last thing she expects when her husband returns from his wars, reeking of blood and unwashed leather, but the paternal instinct can soften even the most battle-hardened warrior. As he stands before her, clasping the Jotun-blue baby in his arms, the mighty All-Father looks as anxious as a mother cat trying to nurse a duckling.

    Frigga puts out her hands, accepts him for what he is: a replacement for the son Odin has claimed as his own. A prize, looted from the battlefield by the All-Father himself.

    She looks down at the squalling, alien child, already made fretful by the heat of the room, and thinks: yes. This one will be mine.
