The Related Worlds of Neville Longbottom by backinyourbox

Summary
Somehow, somewhere, a Neville-shaped hole has been ripped through reality. Each of the Neville Longbottoms from the related worlds are being pulled through to the same place. For some it's a curse, for Number Five, it's a blessing. But they can't all stay in the same world forever, and Number Five might be the only one who can fix the gap before the paradox causes the entire world series to collapse - if he can do it without being dragged back into his real life nightmares. (note: while technically a Chrestomanci crossover, you don't need to be familiar with the Chrestomanci universe to read this story)

Summary
The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.

Summary
“This… this would qualify as a mental breakdown, right?” Triton asked, frowning over his shoulder to where Percy was still fuming in the corner. The lady at the counter curiously glanced over before lifting a questioning brow. “My brother – half-brother, technically, I have much better breeding – decided to run away from home to where our father can’t reach him and now he won’t leave. And now I can’t leave unless he leaves,” Triton continued. Percy opened his mouth to object that wasn’t what happened at all, but the tyrant only waved a hand to silence him. “He’s seen war or whatever, so if you could maybe just drug him then I’ll throw him into a suitcase and we can be out of here by the Summer Solstice!”
Silence. Finally, the woman cleared her throat and turned to Percy.
“I’m guessing he’s the one you want checked into the mental hospital?” She asked. Triton gasped as Percy punched the air in victory.
“Aha!”

Getting in trouble works a little differently when your parent is an all-powerful god. Sometimes you have to escape to the land beyond gods and get your immortal brother turned human to drag you back so you can be exploded a million pieces. You know, normal teenage stuff.

Summary
Alex had settled into his life as an ex-reluctant spy. He went to the local university, kept up with his part-time job, and kept his head down. Unfortunately, that's not good enough for the bad guys still out in the world that want him dead. And after an encounter with a certain Colonel John Sheppard, Alex's perfectly settled, completely normal life is turned on its head.
