    Summary

    Wasn’t that how it worked in fairytales? The prince gathered up the sleeping maiden, promised to wed her, the curse was broken and they lived happily ever after. But Fili wasn’t a prince, he was a bookkeeper to a drunk carpenter, and the marriage offer hadn’t worked anyway. So his little act of valour was a failure.

    In this world, the dragon failed to destroy Laketown many years ago, the King survived the battle of Five Armies, Bard is the properly elected leader of Laketown, and Fili and Kili are literally the boys next door who were raised with no idea of their royal heritage.

    The lives Fili and Sigrid live are small and dull and rather damp, but at least they have each other; but the world beyond is about to come crashing in.

    Summary

    The asset is programmed not to strike a handler. Not to struggle no matter who is doing what to it. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to shy away when technicians approach torch-first to take it apart and put it back together in the name of science, research, progress. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to object to the mouth guard, the restraints, the chair. Not to beg or plead when it is left empty and hungry in its cryo tube. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to so much as consider harming an operator, the highest of all members of the organization. And...

    And if the silent, liquid fury in the asset’s eyes is any indicator, the asset does not comply.

    (Or: The one where the asset is thawed out during the Chitauri attack on New York, escapes, and goes hunting for revenge with the Avengers hot on the trail.)

    Summary

    If Arto Rogers-Stark thought life was tricky as a baby super-soldier, he's about to find that it's not going to get any easier now that he's a fully-grown one. He's got overbearing family to wrangle, a not-quite girlfriend to work out, questions about his future to address. Oh, and an interdimensional portal chamber that keeps causing trouble, no matter how many times they try and turn the damn thing off. It was bad enough when it was spitting out aliens; now it's bringing Hydra soldiers and horribly-familiar assassins to his doorstep. It'll be a miracle if they all make it out alive and in the right dimension.

    Applicant:
    Name: Louis Tomlinson.
    Qualifications: None.
    Experience: Two weeks.
    Why did you leave your last job: Boss was a wanker.
    Past Employer Referee: Absolutely not.

    Summary

    Following his most recent break-up, Harry finds himself in a difficult position when his friends play a sexual drinking game.

    Unsure about sex, his housemate decides to help Harry understand what he enjoys in the bedroom. Along the way, he finds himself discovering a little bit more than just orgasms.

    --

    ‘Ready?’ Niall poised the question, but before Louis had chance to answer, a firm hand landed on Louis’ denim-clad cheek. The sound echoed around the room, accompanied by shocked gasps from both Zayn and Harry.

    ‘Fucking hell Ni! Remind me never to have sex with you!’ Louis glanced over his shoulder, throwing Niall a glare. He sniggered in response, unashamedly comfortable with whatever madness was descending in his living room.

    Summary

    When Harry Styles was accepted into a post-grad degree, he knew he could no longer afford his flat, leaving him with three options:
    1) Move back into student halls.
    2) Become homeless.
    3) Move in with his best (and only) friend, Niall, and three of Niall's other mates.
    He went with the third option. But it was a close race.
    Shame one of his roommates reminded him why he only has one friend.
    If there is one thing Louis Tomlinson can't stand, it's pretentious tossers, having grown up around enough of them. If there is one thing he can't live without, it would be his friends. So he was proper thrilled to move in with his best mates and a couple of other lads.
    That was until he discovered one of them was the archetype for a pretentious tosser.

    In the interest of seeing out the twelve-month lease without killing each other, they both try (debatable) to get along despite believing they are opposite in almost every conceivable way, each having the communication skills of a cucumber, and secrets that have no business be kept secret.

    Summary

    LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
    1971 - 1995

    This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!

    PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??

    Summary

    The rescue mission to infiltrate the Presidential bunker has lasted well over three hours and people are getting restless. Not only was it made difficult because the whole damn building had sunk underground, but Wing Zero crash landing on the thing hadn’t made it any easier. The first wave of the rescue team had been lowered down with rappelling ropes to see to any injuries. While the second rescue team had been in charge of creating a makeshift elevator and pulley system to raise the survivors.

    The days following Mariemaia's attempted coup leave the world in flux. The Gundam pilots remain in Brussels, awaiting debriefing and trying to decide how to move forward while recovering from the unexpected battle.

    Summary

    In the middle of their second year, Draco and Harry discover they're soulmates and do their best to keep it a secret from everyone.

    Their best isn't perfect.

    ~

    “Are you trying to get killed, Potter?” Malfoy drawls, stalking forward. Quick as a serpent himself, he reaches out and grabs the snake just below the head. It thrashes in his grip, but is no longer able to bite anyone. “This is a poisonous snake, and I doubt anyone brought a bezoar with them.”

    Harry glares. He opens his mouth, and feels the beginning the snake’s language pass his lips, and this isn’t what he wants, what’s the point of insulting Malfoy if he can’t understand him –

    Malfoy’s eyes widen. He slaps his hand over Harry’s mouth, “Potter, what the hell–”

    Summary

    For Duo Maxwell, family are the people he has loved and lost and whose names he bears.
    For Tony Stark, family has always been blood and a name and Howard's shadow looming over him.

    Tony tried to make a family of choice with the Avengers, but that hasn't gone so great. When the Family Reunification Registry identifies a Duo Maxwell as his son, Tony tries to find him and offer him a family he didn't know he had. The first time Tony lays his eyes on his son in person, it's in a police interview room. Turns out, that's not the most complicated part.

    "I don't care about whose DNA has recombined with whose. When everything goes to hell, the people who stand by you without flinching, they are your family." ~ Jim Butcher

    “Are you fucking kidding me?” Clint yelled and threw his hands in the air.

    “Come on, Barton, you are…” Tony started but Clint stopped in front of him - very, very close - and pointed a finger into his face.

    “Don’t ‘come on, Barton,’ me!” He snapped.

    “It’s not the first time you helped,” Steve said quietly.
