Summary
After returning from the Land of Untold Stories, Belle and Rumple went their separate ways for a short time. They may have never reconciled, if not for the intervention of their daughter, and received a much-needed warning of the battle to come.
(This became much more convoluted than I intended: now it's become the Gold-Charming family feud that we should've gotten)

Summary
(Swanfire/Thursday Next AU) In another 1983, a laboratory accident opened a rift to the Enchanted Forest. For thirty years, many such Persons of Dubious Reality (PDRs) have lived in a protected town in Maine, designated for their use and kept separate from the rest of the world, except for when their written lives dictate a predisposition to trouble, in which case it is the job of the underfunded Nursery Crime Division to wrangle them. Officer Emma Swan has worked in the NCD since leaving the Union Army ten years ago – being a PDR herself, she’s somewhat uniquely qualified for the job. But she might have her hands full when Peter Pan starts kidnapping fairytale characters; not to mention that she also has to find time to halt the American Civil War, figure out who really wrote Shakespeare’s plays, and persuade the man she still loves not to marry another woman.

Summary
Following Zelena’s defeat, the people of Storybrooke settle into life back in the Land Without Magic. Though trouble is always just around the corner (especially with King Richard testing the leadership of the town), it’s nothing that Emma and Regina can’t handle. At long last, it looks as if the storm is over. But villains can appear in the strangest of places, especially after a betrayal comes to light that will shatter the line between good and evil. Edited Universe, Alternate Season 4, continues on from There But for the Grace of God

Summary
Dissatisfied with the way canon has been treating beloved characters for the last three seasons? Well, this is a complete rewrite of OUAT starting from ep. 3x11 (canon up until then; if it doesn't get mentioned explicitly, assume it didn't happen). It roughly follows the path of canon but some major mistakes have been fixed, including:
- No CaptainSwan. Ever.
- Neal lives, repairs his relationship with his father and Emma and actually gets to be a freakin' dad
- Rumbelle in-character; some angst, but hopeful and it'll be worth it in the end
- OutlawQueen have some actual development, rather than a shoehorned relationship. Also Robin doesn't die.
- characters like Robin, Belle and Snow don't get shoved to the sidelines, only to appear when the plot (or a certain pirate's so-called redemption) calls for it.
- Not Zelena-friendly. Ever.
- Bit iffy about Hook; he spends a lot of time drunk under a bar and once got mistaken for dirty laundry.
- Blue Fairy is shady and may be villainous.
- Balanced ensemble cast with recurring appearances from other sidelined characters.Rumbelle, Swanfire, OutlawQueen and Snowing to the end! Hope you enjoy!

Summary
Getting transported to the past? Tricky. Getting transported to the past with old gods who are fascinated by you? Trickier. Getting transported to the middle of the Trojan War and you and your girlfriend are on different sides? Now that's just mean.
Or, Annabeth and Percy travel back to Ancient Greece during the Trojan War, but end up on opposite sides due to conniving parents and old god grudges. The gods are much more possessive than either child remember them being.

Summary
The Olympians vote to kill Percy at the Winter Solstice, long before he has the chance to turn sixteen. But the war still needs a prophecy child. The Titans have stolen the Sword of Hades, and they bring Percy back to offer him a deal: if he fights for them, he’ll get his revenge.
Unfortunately, Percy Jackson has never done what anyone expected of him.

Summary
My brain has always been a big fan of Stargate with no actual Stargate. So here we are again.
I started writing this one a long time ago (more than five years ago). Now it's finished. I'm glad it is because the idea lived with me for a long long time before it became this.
Disclaimer: I don't know how Malls work, I mean, not really. So, creative licence yeah?
As always, apologies for typos and other stupid stuff I missed in editing.
