    Summary

    Most of the challenges that Ted Lasso encounters when he begins coaching at AFC Richmond were more or less what he expected: still not really understanding soccer, people getting upset when he says things like 'soccer,' etc. He's got a whole new team full of players to get to know, who've all got their own stuff going on.

    The part he didn't see coming is the kid he meets on his first day. Ted quickly learns a few things: his name is Jamie, he's fifteen years old, and he's the part-time groundskeeper's assistant at Nelson Road. The more time Ted spends with him, the more he learns about where Jamie fits into the Richmond ecosystem, and the more concerns he develops about just what, exactly, is going on in the kid's life outside of this building.

    It's going to take Ted's determination and patience, an unlikely main ally in Roy Kent, the entire Richmond community, and Jamie's own willingness to be brave enough to let someone help him to stop Jamie from drowning. Then maybe, just maybe, they can bring him safe onto dry land.

    (AU that follows the events of the three seasons of the show, with one major difference. completely gen, no ships.)

    Summary

    Peter’s gotten used to Gotham by now. The thousand little sounds that build up to the cacophony of a city in controlled chaos. But it isn’t home, and it never will be, and the more time passes, the more that thought makes him twitch. He’s frustrated by it, annoyed that he feels like he’s forcing his way through a world that doesn’t belong to him. Worse, the Soul Stone is starting to become more and more of an issue. As if it senses something coming.

    Tony's last words had been 'the threat always comes back.' Thanos won't be thwarted forever, only delayed. Eventually, he's going to hunt down the stray Soul Stone that Peter holds.

    The Bats have a few opinions on that. The Avengers that have fallen into this other world have a few of their own. And there's the problem of Dr. Strange's letter...

    Summary

    He clicks on Gotham Wikipedia with bated breath. And it doesn’t take long for Peter to figure out just how bad the situation is. Gotham isn’t just a city, it’s apparently a hellhole. What kind of villain playground is this world running? How could anyone let it get this bad? Where is the government? Where are the heroes?

    Peter’s heart swells at the thought. He needs heroes! They’ll be able to help him! The first thing that pops up is a website- JusticeLeague.Org.
    -
    Peter, like any 14 year old superhero, really wants to catch a break. He's just a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, nothing special. Well, only if you don't look at his biology ever since the radioactive spider bite. And his extensive track record of running away and deaths in his life. And that his foster-dad is Tony Stark. And that his mentors are the Avengers. And the fact that he was randomly kidnapped one morning on his way to school and now he's in an alternate universe with a bunch of different superheroes that keep stalking him.

    He thinks they mean well, but they're really weird. Besides that Red Hood guy. He's pretty cool.

    Summary

    Unpredictability is a strategy, he said the other day. Spencer just didn't know it was one he was also capable of—especially not when it comes to things like this.

    "So..." Spencer blinks up at the ceiling. "What now?"

    Ethan hums, staring right alongside him. "You said something about the sights?"
