A trickster god does not go about acquiring power by brute force. AKA, the one where, instead of becoming a supervillain when he fell to Earth, Loki somehow ended up as Tony Stark's personal assistant.

The thing about circles is that they are not inert objects; it’s not in their nature.

TL;DR Loki gets a therapist and finds Earth hobbies that he enjoys in between bothering his brother and his friends.

It's tough being a twenty-something witch in a modern world.

Tougher still, when everyone expects your daemon to fly away (Darcy was always more of a homebody).

Ivan gets engaged; hijinks ensue.

Nick and Monroe are dating before Nick founds out he is a grimm (Monroe is just really really good at the self control thing and Nick likes rough sex).

Wherein twelve trolls and four humans, having bonded in uncommon fashions and gained a significant amount of martial prowess through great hardships, decide to build their hives and live together in hard-won peace, henceforth proceeding to accidentally become the de facto Lord Protectors of the area and eventually changing the fabric of Society as we know it. Contains several instances of interspecies relationships, quadrant flipping, and scandalously out-quadrant concupiscent and conciliatory affairs, as well as several battle scenes containing numerous instances of minor-character culling and incredible badassitude.

AU where Hap gets to stick around for a little while longer, and can't help noticing the ~vibes~ between his man Monroe and the catch-and-release Grimm.

Summary: Through no fault of his own, [lies] Tintin has angered some violent people who want to kill him. Haddock is not amused. [Five times Haddock made a mistake and Tintin got hurt, and one time he was exactly right.]

Tintin is the mermaid (to be precise, merman) and Haddock is the prince he'll save from the ocean!
[multiple fills]

Juliette/Monroe/Nick. One day, Nick brings an odd, snarky man into their lives, and Juliette can't help but realize that he's kind of charming in a weird way. WIP.

No matter how deeply the past gets buried, it never stays there. The job that's haunted Eliot Spencer for the last eight years has finally caught up with him -- and it's not just his life that's in danger.

Paris outs herself and Rory during a televised argument with Michele Bachmann. Peskiest of all is the fact that Paris and Rory aren't actually dating. A documentary crew wants to make Paris And Rory: Love In Stars Hollow anyway. Meanwhile, Rory goes slowly and quietly nuts. (And doesn't like Paris like that -- why would you even suggest such a thing?? Not that ... anyone did.)

They are in a foreign land to uncover some mystery where gentleman comes to their aid. He is eloquent, dashing, young, rich, refined, intelligent, dignified, cultivated, a bit arrogant and very interested in Tintin. He flirts with him openly without knowing that he is already in a relationship with Haddock who thinks, brokenly, that Tintin will leave him for someone better.

Not impressed, Tintin isn’t impressed and decides to lay all his cards on the table.

You have no clue how old you really are. It's all tick tock tick tock in your head nonstop and you can feel the eons left to this universe (a truly righteous shitload of 'em, we're talking mucking truck carrying three bazillion farms' worth of horse manure here) and the eons past (all the weight of history, ages upon moldy, dusty ages that didn't exist during your yesterday.)

You are technically older than this universe. You don't know if that makes you any older than sixteen.

"Strider!"

Oh right, zombies.

If ever a people deserved tasering, it’s Holmeses.

Or, SitRep Atlantis: Advance Recon Report by Sgt Brad Colbert

"You know what's really weird about the whole thing?" Brad finally said.

Nate raised an eyebrow. "Apart from the whole highly classified, inter-branch, civilian and international, can't-tell-you-what-our-program-is-called-without-non-disclosure-paperwork, independent-thinker selecting, amiable Air Force and Corps officer cooperation thing?"

"Yeah, apart from that."

A lot of people have wondered why Tintin is so eager for Captain Haddock to join him on his adventures. One reason, aside from the the fact that an adventure without the captain just isn't a proper adventure, is that Tintin, despite being fluent in many languages, is absolutely awful at English.

The spite of the spirits opened a door better left untouched. On the other hand, with Fire and Earth as one's allies, sometimes escaping is the easy part.

Sheldon Cooper is crazy, but also kind of made of awesomeness. Or at least that's how Howard puts it. Penny thinks there's a possibility he's made of sexy, and really, the world must be ending if she has to suppress wayward urges to kiss him.

Sheldon, however, would explain it a different way: "Apocalypse Week is a series of training exercises, skirmishes, and aptitude tests based on survival simulations for various apocalyptical events. It serves to debunk a number of myths perpetrated by Hollywood and popular culture and to ensure personal survival scenarios are reliable and well-practiced."

When the Avengers RPF kinkmeme happens, Darcy is all over that shit.

So, it turns out, is Loki.

THey bond over the crack and the pr0n and somehow, end up meeting up - epic WTF and hot metatextual sex ensues.

There are two new players -- and a twist -- in Castle's poker game.

Ten years after the Battle for Naboo, a Jedi wakes up alone in the desert.

When an infant Harry is rescued from the Dursleys to be raised by his Were-uncle Moony, his Godfather Lord Black, and his time-turned future self, the biggest question is obviously... who gets to be the daddy? T for language, otherwise safe. No smut.

[Very amusing. Harry goes back in time with portrait!Dumbledore & portrait!Hermione (magicked so that it's really her), saves his 2 year old self, gets Sirius out of prison, cleans up Grimmauld Place and redecorates everything in bright colors and crazy patterns. He not only needs to destroy the horcruxes but also Voldemort's doomsday weapon of infectious inferi/zombies.]

Following the fall of Voldemort, the Gringotts goblins act fast to carry out the terms of the Potters' will. What will happen when young Harry Potter - halfblood, Parselmouth, curse-scarred, outsider - is raised in the stalagmite city of Underfoot? Harry Potter - Rated: T - English - Adventure/Fantasy - Chapters: 13 - Words: 74,914 - Reviews: 561 - Updated: 8-24-11 - Published: 2-23-11 - Harry P.

[The goblins read the will & are honor bound to make sure Harry is safe especially with the Ministry threatening to takeover the bank before Voldemort's fall. They contact Petunia & she gives up custody. With no other viable choices & Dumbledore none the wiser they decide to raise Harry in Underfoot by a childless goblin couple. They do a superlative job. Very interesting story.]

Dreams are a window into other worlds, left behind in the clear light of day. But what happens when one dream reaches back across, and catches hold? Crossover with Fallen London/Echo Bazaar.

HP crossover. Contains yaoi. By accident or fate, Trowa discovers he still has family on earth. When he arrives at the Dursleys, he meets nine-year-old Harry Potter. Trowa wanted nothing to do with his family, but will Harry convince him to stay?

The Courting Dance" is a set of chronological ficlets dealing with Aravis's and Cor's relationship.

"Sometimes I think Hunch has no faith in my ability to stay out of trouble. After all, no sane person would." The events surrounding the recovery of the Saltash Set, told from Mairelon the Magican/Richard Merrill's often absentminded but never dull point of view.

Gundam Wing/Oath of Swords

Three years after Battle City, Mokuba needs a Bodyguard, Jounouchi needs a Job, Yuugi's lonely, and Kaiba needs Friends. Fortunately, the solution for all is the same thing. Updated randomly and infrequently.

"You got what you wanted, Adam." Actually, it sounds like she calls him "dragon," but she's a ways a way. Kris never thought he'd have to talk to her about the proper way to speak to customers -- even ones you know personally -- but he makes a mental note. "So just leave, okay? Go back to where you came from."

"I'm not finished!"

"Oh, right. You expect me to believe you're hanging around for the pancakes?"

Ariadne survived Nikolaos by keeping her head down and playing as harmless as a young master vampire can; Jean-Claude's rule is better, but she still dreams of freedom. When bounty hunters Dominic Cobb and Arthur come to St. Louis seeking revenge for the death of Dom's wife, they set off a storm of events that may grant Ariadne's wish in a most unexpected way. Arthur/Ariadne/Eames, past Dom/Mal.

During a rainy day in the summer after his second year at Hogwarts, Harry meets the man he could have become had things been very different.

James Joseph Moriarty was born in Galway, in 1976. His birth certificate no longer exists.

If it did, it would list his father’s name (Dr. Joseph Arthur), his mother’s (Mrs. Elizabeth Anne), and his birth weight (2.7kg). It would not tell you that his eyes were blue, or that he entered this world as he will leave it – howling.

It would not tell you that five minutes later his mother (Mrs. Elizabeth Anne) gave birth to a daughter, his sister. His twin. The records of her birth burned with his, but if they hadn’t, you would know her name.

Mary Elizabeth Moriarty was born in Galway, in 1976.

They will call her Molly.

A new teacher has arrived at Shirokin, and he's not bothering to hide his attraction to the homeroom teacher of a certain delinquent class. 3-D greet him with their usual kindness and warmth, but Yankumi is far more interested in the reaction of one Sawada Shin…

The Hero's duties should have ended when he saved Hyrule, but the nobility, once again embroiled in politics, have other plans.

Rebuilding is a long, slow, and arduous task. Even for a recently deified Goddess and her reluctant prophet, Cloud Strife. Post Advent Children, multiple pairings.

Two years after the events of Advent Children. Cloud and Tifa never hoped they might see Aeris or Zack ever again -- and they did hope they wouldn't have to deal with Sephiroth a third time. They were wrong on both counts. Having their friends back is great, but it also comes with its share of awkwardness, confusion and other, more practical troubles; having to deal with a newly sane -- or is he? -- but still bastardly killer doesn't help. Especially when they still have to keep Denzel, Avalanche, WRO and the Turks happy. Meanwhile in the Wutai court, a sinister plot is brewing that could engulf the whole world once again... Genre: action/psychological/romance. Plot. Attempt at redeeming Sephiroth. Possible polyamory.

In the face of a DNA analysis Kaito can't deny, he begins uncovering the rest of his family's secrets. Too bad he's not the only one looking.

Taming of the Shrew-like story. Adam in total diva mode, and Kris is here to tame him.

The planet shone outside the viewing deck, red-orange-jeweled under the swirls of violet cloud. Kris stood staring out at it, deceptively calm; they hadn't started the landing yet.

Pairing: Adam/Kris, Tommy/Kris, Adam/Tommy, Adam/Tommy/Kris, and a debilitating epidemic of Everybody Loves Kris
Summary: In which Adam looks for Tommy, Tommy finds Kris, and Kris is fuzzy on the details. Oh, yeah, and cats are people too—sometimes.
Warning: AU! Urban fantasy! Cats, cats, cats! Clueless!Kris! (Also age change on Tommy's part, because I cannot process the fact of him being older than Adam. Really. I tried.

Adam's always thought humans created curiosity as a sort of germ warfare.

It had taken a couple hours, but eventually, Dr. Kuwabara's invoked legality showed up in some of the oldest regulations Starfleet had. It was one of perhaps a half-dozen, buried among hundreds, that hadn't been overridden by later additions since the formation of the Federation.

James Joseph Womak was a commander for the Alliance, proud to wear the purple uniform and determined to bring justice to the common farmers who lived rough lives on an outer rim dominated by smugglers and slavers and criminals. His side won, but he still lost. A shadowy group called the Institute took a little too much interest in a rare genetic gift of enhanced senses, and now he's on the run.

Two bitter old war horses really aren't good at forgiving or forgetting or letting evil grow like mold in those dark corners of the universe where other men are afraid to look.

Yukina had just finished the diagnostic on a medical tricorder, when the Sickbay doors swished open and Crusher-sensei hauled a half-conscious man through.

The Last Remnant script

Petunia married a scientist. Now rationalist!Harry enters the wizarding world armed with Enlightenment ideals and the experimental spirit... Ch. 16: 'Lateral Thinking'. Quirrell teaches the class that has been taught at Hogwarts for eight hundred years.
[varies between funny and "um, what..."]

Part Eleven of the Identical Series. What are little boys made of? Clark and Lex confront their pasts, and fight for their future.

Spots began as a way to keep my mind active while at the gym, a thought exercise initially presented as a series of themed vignettes. It didn't stay that way long, though. It only took a month for a story to start coalescing out of these disconnected episodes. These days, at 160+ pages and 70+ episodes and counting, Spots has graduated to a full-fledged military SF novel, complete with outline and planned plot arcs and ending.

"Okay, I've suddenly developed the ability to see the future, Jim," Leonard says, "And I know that in ten seconds I'm going to regret asking this question. But what are they volunteering for, exactly?"

Jim's grin gets bigger and more perverted, which hey, Leonard hadn't even thought was possible. "For the wiki project, Leonard. Gaila and I decided to put together a database for Starfleet cadets about sexual practices of all available species, as well as inter-species compatibility."

Nanao X ...Zaraki? I have no excuse, explanation, or defense of this pairing whatsoever. So very, very sorry. The crack! It burns!

When fourthseat Nanao has to transfer to a new division, the Eighth is her last choice. Still, these things happen...somehow. She doesn't want to be there, and her new Captain's not quite sure she belongs there. Sake! Paranoia! Random art history!

NWN2 In which Sand, quite by accident, succeeds where the Traveling Ranger & Paladin Show has failed, and destiny is revealed to smell like iron and gingerbread. Sarcasm! Drama! Romance! More sarcasm!

Conan discovers Kid's identity.

Aravis and Cor want to be together; Lune is less than enthusiastic. Fortunately, Aravis has a friend. (925 words)

Original slashy high-fantasy tentaclefic epic threesome...just for starters. *hearts*

Summary: Beauty and the Beast with a twist (and a wriggle)

Castiel goes back in time to stop the Apocalypse. Things go wrong. Things go VERY wrong.

Dragon's fire is not so easily extinguished; when Zuko rediscovers a lost firebending technique, shifting flames can shift the world... Follows "Theft Absolute".

sequal to Switch, up to mid year three, no pairings so far.

Rodney as a reluctant Herald trainee, with Cadman as his Companion.
[eventual John/Rodney]

Atlantis was a neutral colony before it became a prison camp, split between the mainland facilities and the ocean bound city itself for the war criminals and those convicted of crimes against humanity. Alcatraz, he'd heard Sheppard drawl when he arrived in the gateroom, manacled and bruised from a scuffle in the Colorado gate room that ended with four injured Marines. Inescapable, or so they said, but Sheppard's single word reminded him that nothing's inescapable.

The war is over. Too bad no one is left to celebrate. Harry makes a desperate plan to go back in time, even though it means returning Voldemort to life. Now an 11 year old Harry with 30 year old memories is starting Hogwarts. Can he get it right? [Post HBP]

Amidst a period of political turmoil, Blaise asks Harry to help get Severus married. More than the traditional complications arise, however, as several people attempt to secure future happiness for themselves—and some, the future of the wizarding world.

Spoilers for DH. Without Harry in the picture, someone has to step up to lead those opposed to Voldemort. That someone is Neville Longbottom. This is the story of the Hogwarts Underground.

Harry used a Time-turner to change his past. Cedric lived. Other key figures didn't. How can Harry and the Order fight Voldemort now?

Year Seven at Hogwarts

Another year at Hogwarts, and, as always, last year's events have consequences... Sequel to The Best Defense. Not Yoma's, see my profile for links. Yu Yu HakushoHarry Potter crossover. ON HIATUS until the author's detoxed from HP.

Jounouchi's got the perfect job, he gets to duel and game all he wants, and has the occasional fight on the side. The downside: It's for Kaiba Corporation, as Mokuba's bodyguard. [being revised & reposted]

unfinished story snippets

by leareth. Yue's POV on the second story arc.

A close look at the dichotomy between Yue/Yukito and how he comes to terms with being who he is. Note - this is based on the original Card Captor Sakura manga, not the anime, and definately NOT the CardCaptors dub.
