Summary
The Devil tsked. “If I am to be housing you, I need to know if the payoff will be worth it." The Devil walked closer towards him, cane thumping ominously. “So tell me, merchling, are you worth my while?”
"I wouldn’t presume to tell you what your while's worth, sir.” Wylan’s throat constricted. “But I do have other uses."
The Devil raised an eyebrow. "Pray tell."

Summary
Toph loves sitting in on Zuko’s diplomatic meetings. They’re usually at least a little interesting, and he’s absent-minded just enough to let slip a detail that sends the Earth Kingdom ambassadors reeling with alarm and confusion. Whenever there's some little detail to be recalled from the last year, Zuko has it covered.

Summary
"We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.
"You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.
A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.
Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.
Or:
Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem.- Language:

The Background Noise of Defiance by loosingletters
Fandom Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy
16 Dec 2020
Summary
The Galaxy is a big place and you can find all kinds of obscure things on the holonet, including a blond teenager from Tatooine dragging the TIE-Fighter program through the sarlacc pit.
Or an Alternative Universe in which the galaxy gets saved because Luke has a youtube channel, everybody is on space twitter and Anakin Skywalker always returns to the light for his family.
Rebellions are loud and vibrant and social media is the most powerful weapon right next to a lightsaber.

Summary
Lucius Malfoy has spent years desperately searching for a way to remove his Mark. Now, he’s out of time. Salvation - of a kind - comes from the resurgence of an ancient House, under a very familiar name, that could potentially overwrite the Dark Lord’s claim with its own. Of course, swearing his House into vassalage to a fourteen-year-old boy with diametrically opposed values and plenty of reason to dislike his family is far from ideal, but…well, Lucius has always been a practical man. Harry Potter is better than an insane, vengeful Dark Lord, and if that ancient lineage comes back into play? Well, perhaps his family will simply be the first among many; and this, an opportunity to secure a position of high favour...
Harry Potter does not like Lucius Malfoy, and trusts him even less. The last thing he wants is to bind their families together. But Malfoy is a convincing man and his offers and arguments end up sounding so very sensible. He doesn't want Malfoy’s resources and wealth to end up in Voldemort’s hands either, and if Malfoy is truly offering to help him with the things that are important to Harry in return, well…when has anyone else ever really done that before?

Summary
Izuku steps towards the other teen, holding his hand out to shake, “I’m Midoriya Izuku by the way. We haven’t officially met yet, right? I don’t remember seeing you at the Entrance Exam?”
The blue-haired boy pauses, studies his hand uncertainly before shrugging. “Shirakumo Oboro,” he introduces in return, hand phasing right through Izuku’s when he goes to return the handshake. Shirakumo doesn’t seem surprised by it, but Izuku whips his hand back when the intense chill climbs up his arm.
or,
Izuku tries to pretend eveything is okay even though his homelife is crumbling around him, there's an insanely powerful Quirk that's not entirely his coursing through his veins, he suddenly knows his childhood hero, All Might, and to top it all off, he seems to have befriend a pastel blue-haired ghost that has way too much insider knowledge on Izuku's new homeroom teacher, and English teacher. He's really just trying to survive Yuuei...

Summary
In unearthing the Nomu Factory, the Heroes and police of Japan discovered a body. This was not unexpected, but the nationality and uniform of the corpse in question… that was. Because this failed Nomu wore the uniform of Amestris, a war torn nation from the isolated continent of Atossa, where Quirks and modern electronics had never developed and never worked.
Edward Elric hoped he could retire from military service in peace, traveling Amestris while his brother Alphonse went to Xing. This is put on hold when now-Führer Mustang asks him to travel to the Outside, to the world beyond that was barricaded for centuries after the development of something called ‘Quirks’. A soldier has been killed and Amestris needs to know more about the Outside.
…
Or, Edward Elric and Amestris meet the greater world of Heroes and Villains. It remains to be seen who’s more traumatized by the encounter.

Summary
Most people imagine magic reveals involve prophecy and drama.
The Knights of the Round Table discover Merlin’s magic through a series of increasingly suspicious “accidents,” and immediately choose to never speak of it again.
Not because they’re noble—
but because they’ve seen what the forest does when Merlin is annoyed.

Dadan has had ENOUGH and she's bringing her kid home by Crow (Elennanore) for Silaharon, Hi_Im_FelixM
Fandoms: One Piece (Anime & Manga)
14 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
"MONKEY D. LUFFY YOU DAMNED BRAT I KNOW THIS IS YOUR DOING!"
Dadan didn't need to see him to know he was there. Of all possible bullshit that could happen to her, time travel had Monkey D shenanigans stamped all over it. And considering her kid’s Pirate King now, it would be a fool’s bet to think he hadn’t got himself wrapped up in some new adventure or another and ended up bragging her to fucking Marinefort of all place. "I didn't do nuthing!" yelled back at her from the crowd of marines and pirates told her she was spot on, even if the brat himself probably did not know at this point what in Nika's name he managed to do in order to drag her back not only from the embrace of death but toss her back in time as well
But that mattered little now. The brat was alive and would stay alive. It's her other brat that she's worried about. It doesn’t more than a cursory glance to notice her surroundings. Because there, up on the scaffold, alive - still thankfully alive and he would stay like that if she had anything to say about it - Ace chortles in surprise and gasped a word he had not used since he was knee high.
