    Summary

    Tywin appears before Ned's trial and reveals information that makes Ned immediately accept the terms to join the Lannisters against Baratheon brothers while also coping with Catelyn's death in attack by an assassin sent for Bran. One of those terms is that Ned, now a widower, marries Cerse and takes her to Winterfell while agreeing to fight on Lannister side. A book borrowed from Winterfell library by Tyrion makes Ned question everything he learned from Jon Arryn's work.

    We are following the Starks and Cersei adapting to new reality. All while Winter is Coming.

    It is my take on the series, which means we will also see a war for Joffrey's throne, a War for Dawn and its aftermath. You can expect other characters' POV's. But, it is loaded with Ned/Cersei romantic story. If you are interested why there must be a Stark in Winterfell, who the Night King is, who Azor Ahai is, and the War for Dawn, and you want to see GRRM's work wrapped up through three Stories, this is story for you too.

    Young characters are aged up.

    Summary

    The Story is set after Cersei's offer to Ned in the Godswood. Just as Ned prepares to tell Robert of his bastards, he receives news that his own two sons Rickon and Bran died from a fever. His father and brother died physically in KL, and Ned dies metaphorically after a moral downfall that follows the news: he goes to Cersei's Chambers angry and in need of relief, not expecting Cersei is playing a game as well. He becomes her hostage, as he rules the 7 kingdoms in Joffrey's name as his Regent. Winter is really coming and it is soon hitting them as greater players, Lady Made of Light and the Great Other begin the final War. Lady Made of Light is raising her champions (the first of which are Jon, Robb, Daenerys, Arya and Shireen), and their mentors (amongst whom are Arthur Dayne, Barristan Selmy and Melisandre) are in search for them, before the Great Other breaks them or makes them his puppet like Euron Greyjoy. Will they join the fight or refuse the call? The first champion almost fully broken is Bran connected in mind with Bloodraven even as his body is placed in a tomb. Will be an alternative take on all 5 books.

    Summary

    The Winter Soldier knows the redhead is special from the moment he sets his eyes on her. At first glance, all eight Black Widows that he’s been sent to train look the same. They all dress in black clothes covering all but their fingers, necks, and heads. No chance of a soulmark accidentally showing during a sparring match. They all wear their hair in braids. One stands out. Out of the eight, the redhead is the only one looking at him without fear or determination in her eyes. She merely looks curious.

    *************

    An exploration of the bond between soulmates and the people around them. To quote Nat: Rules are meant to be broken.

    Summary

    Her eyes were wide and alert as she stared up at him. Fear warring with determination and hunger. Her lovely features shifted as each emotion fought for dominance. He should order her to leave. Tell her that she shouldn’t risk her future by coming here. He didn’t. He couldn’t get a word out when Natalia looked at him like that. His own bottomless hunger wouldn’t allow it.
    The Soldier took a step back. Not in retreat, as an invitation.

    Summary

    “I…” she started, still looking for the right words to start the inevitable conversation ahead. She couldn’t back out now, he already knew something was up. “How do you feel about… kids?” she asked gingerly. Clearly he wasn’t expecting anything along those lines because he was speechless for a few seconds. Eight long seconds. She counted.

    Summary

    The super-soldier serum strengthens every body system and heightens every sense. This results in a few unintended side effects such as the inability to get drunk, near constant hunger, occasional bouts of insomnia, and (for a brief period) absolute, crippling arousal. Bucky learns about the fourth the hard way, and Natasha does love to flirt.

    Because what is Sam Wilson thinking, leaving a cat on his doorstep.

    It seems almost too good to be true. An all-expenses paid trip to Italy, and all they have to do is participate in a sleep study. It turns out the sleep study is on an abandoned island, with no way to leave and no way to contact the outside world. There are signs that all is not as it seems, but it's also too late to back out. And then, bodies start to appear...

    Having all the answers might not be enough to make it out alive...

    Summary

    “You were pregnant.”

    13 years ago those words had broken Natasha’s heart and numbed it to ice. 13 years ago Madame told Natasha they’d killed the child in her womb during her graduation ceremony. 13 years ago Dreykov forced Natasha to watch as the Winter Soldier was wiped of all memory of her.

    She’d had cause to curse the Red Room a thousand times over but even she hadn't seen this coming. She'd never imagined Madame lied. She hadn’t considered Dreykov would want to keep the Winter Soldier’s child.

    When Steve asked her to look for Bucky, she didn’t expect to find him. She wasn't prepared to find a 10 year old with red hair, green eyes, and her James's features.

    She thought she’d lost her child forever, before she even had her, but it was all a lie. Now suddenly she’s mother to a traumatised 10 year old girl more familiar with guns than hugs. Her child has spent 3 years frozen in cryogenic storage and the other 10 training as a Widow.

    And Natasha would go to the ends of the earth and fight any monster to protect her daughter but even she might not be up to the task of protecting her baby girl. Because the Red Room is still out there, and Dreykov will stop at nothing.

    Set after CA:TWS

    Summary

    POST Falcon and the Winter Soldier: Bucky finds himself in serious legal trouble. With his future looking grim, he decides to cross off one more of his amends and travel through time to try to save Tony Stark. This is a stand alone sequel to a recent, previous story of mine.

    Click the link for the Time Travel series if you want to read the first one. It's not required to understand this story, but I highly recommend it and it'll give background on the time travel device. Part 1 is a fun, angsty story with lots of good Tony, Natasha, Steve, Sam, and Bucky moments. :) (And it's only 38K words).

    There is now a STUCKY VERSION of this story.
