    Summary

    "There ain't nothing more sad than a kid raised to be quiet."

    Frank’s eyes stray back to Matt; his fingernails digging into his knees with that far away look in his sightless eyes as Billy talked at him. He hadn’t said a word. He suddenly understands what Curt meant.

    This story happens before and during the events of State of Disorder: A Triptych

    Summary

    The year is 1946. The world is still licking its wounds from a war that made many question humanity itself.

    Frank Castle might have survived WWII, but it haunts him relentlessly... as does the death of his family. He has no family, no home, no future that he can see. Each day is simply an exercise in putting one foot in front of the other.

    In a last desperate grab for purpose disguised as a whim, he joins a circus. And his life begins to hold meaning once again.

    Or,

    Frank runs away from home and joins a circus.

    Summary

    “How are you doing, Brekker?” Nina asked when Inej left, and the door finally shut with a soft click. Kaz didn’t bother to look up from his work, tiredly scratching through some form or another.

    “Polite of you to ask,” he muttered. Nina tilted her head, waiting for the sarcasm to come out full force. “You’re sweet to care, Zenik. I’m touched. Truly.”

    “I don’t care,” Nina said loftily, though her eyes were fixed on his face. She hesitated, a little unsure if she wanted to leave this untouched or not. It somehow felt dirty to keep it a secret, though. Nina didn’t need the details, but she also wanted Kaz to know she wasn’t trying to hide anything. Taking a long breath, she continued. “But the voice in the canal asked me to make sure you’re okay.”

    Or

    As Nina’s corpsewitch powers grow, the voices of the dead get stronger. Sometimes, it’s painful to hear them.

    Summary

    It sticks in Jack’s mind when he’s walking home that night. A man in a mask. Dropping down from the sky and making sure folks make it home.

    It’s good. It’s something the neighborhood needs.

    A part of him can’t help but wonder if Matty would still be here, had there been a man in a mask running around back then.

    Or:

    After his father's final fight, Matt Murdock disappears, leaving behind nothing but a broken cane and a pool of blood.

    Years later, Jack Murdock pulls a man in a mask out of his dumpster.

    Summary

    They say when you assume you make an ass of you and me.

    Matt wishes that the Avenger's assumptions about his seeming inability to read the written word did something as benign as making an ass of him and them. Being called illiterate shouldn't hurt, not when he knows he's not, and it's not like he can tell them the truth.

    Not that the truth would make much difference. He's just going to have to grin and bear it.

    If he can.

    Summary

    "Kaz took a deep breath and tried to prepare himself for what was to come. He’d done this before, in similarly hopeless situations, but it was always hard. Logically he knew that this was just another tool, another trick, but it always felt wrong." Or the one where Kaz is a Grisha Healer.

    Summary

    Derek is about to leave, content with the smell of blood as proof that the Fury is dead when he hears it.

    A heartbeat.

    It’s faint and uneven and even with its help, it takes Derek a full minute of scanning the clearing before he finally spots the small heap that must be the human. It’s down on the far side of the canyon, almost completely hidden by a tall oak tree and–Derek jumps down before he thinks about it.

    He knows what he has to do. Furies are dangerous. Furies are fire and smoke and a funeral he barely remembers. He lands almost silently and makes sure his hands are fully shifted into claws and then slowly moves forward.

    Or, a How to Train Your Dragon AU

He's expecting an angry, vicious Night Fury--what he gets is a sarcastic, furious boy.

    How can the awkward boy and the deadly dragon be the same creature?

    Summary

    After a brief, fearful heart flutter, Percy gives her a sidelong glance of recognition. He might still be a little fearful. Sure, the town he and his mom live in now isn’t all that big, but what are the chances of someone else choosing to run on this particular backroad? He'd chosen the one the furthest away from the main road for a reason. “Fancy seeing you here,” he greets drily, not losing step in the slightest. 

    Annabeth Chase gives him a significant look. “Good runners choose good roads, I guess.”

    OR - Annabeth's the girl who hardly ever loses a race, and Percy's the new kid who doesn't have time for track team. It's a love story waiting to happen.

    Summary

    The Darkling uses merzost once again, though this time he just wants to make something good, something for him. He succeeds. Baghra finds the result of his experiments and decides that he can never know that he has created a son. So, she sends the boy away, and he grows up far away from any thoughts of Grisha, the Little Palace, or even Ravka itself.

    Until sixteen years later, when one Kaz Brekker (the adopted son of the Rietvelds, though no one knew that particular detail about him) takes on a job to kidnap the Sun Summoner, and he and his crew find themselves in Ravka. Things start to get a little more complicated from there.

    Summary

    “Jordie,” he says, slowly so Jordie can hear and understand. “This is a dream.”

    Jordie tilts his head, laughs boisterously, but there is no sound. Kaz cannot remember his brother’s laugh. He cannot remember his voice. The details are wrong because Kaz does not know enough to correct them. It is the same mistake every night.

    “No, it’s not,” Jordie corrects. He uses Kaz’s captured pawn to wave to the poppies. “Look at the flowers, Kaz.”


    OR: Kaz schemes, dreams, and avoids his feelings until they catch up to him with vengeance. Mostly at Nina's hands.

    Summary

    In a story of star-crossed brothers, where Kaz's grisha powers save Jordie but don't save him from Pekka Rollins, Kaz becomes the Bastard Saint of the Barrel; Rollins personal Healer and the most feared Grisha to haunt Ketterdam's seedier streets. This upsets Jordie quite a bit. In an attempt to pay off Kaz's indenture, and save his brother from the threat of Jurda Parem, Jordie Rietveld, Dregs Lieutenant and confidence man, makes a deal with Jan Van Eck to perform an impossible heist.

    Naturally, Kaz, busybody extraordinaire, is not about to let his brother screw up in a foreign land alone. He's going to steal his brother's heist and one Bo Yul-Buyur --or his nearest relative, whatever works best --and save his idiot big brother from a Fjerdan prison. And if this means running out on Rollins -well, thirty thousand Kruge should be more than enough money to pay his way out trouble. Right?

    Summary

    “Actually, I don’t give a fuck who you are,” Derek says, curling his lip harshly. “This is private property. How the fuck did you even get in?”

    In an act of quick placation, Stiles throws up two palms facing outwards in front of his chest. His eyebrows knit together as he hastily and vehemently begins to shake his head, trying desperately to telegraph just how severely Derek has grasped at the wrong end of the stick here.

    “Hey, whoa,” he says. “That’s not –”

    “You need to get the fuck out of here before I call the cops.” Derek pauses a moment, his nostrils flaring just a second before his eyes flash burning red, his entire face screwing up in this expression of pure disgust that sends a shiver down Stiles’ spine. “Christ, and you’re a human? A human omega? What kind of fucking moron breaks into a werewolves’ house when they’re just a weak fucking human?”

     

    An alpha werewolf and a human omega: a love story that was never supposed to happen.
