Summary
Mark's girlfriend has been missing for three months. His dad tried to kill her, and Mark failed to save her despite promising he would and-
Robin was right not to believe him.
When she finds her way back to him, there's nothing he won't do to keep her. Forever. He can't...
He can't do this without her. Never again.
While watching the video where you fall to your death just to get swallowed up by a giant black void, you come to a sobering realisation.
You will never be able to match that level of sheer drama, no matter how long you live. Being murdered in an alleyway was one thing, but this? Talk about kicking a man when he’s down.
Speaking of. It's time to make sure you won't be pulling another disappearing act on Mark. Might be a few steps to it, but...anything for him.
Always, anything for him.

Summary
Dying and waking up as a half-breed Viltrumite is- alright, kinda wild. You'll give it that. Love the powers, not so keen on the failing empire with frankly, not the best planning skills.
And the wanton murder and conquering. Also...bad.
So clearly the answer is to fake your death, join Team Earth, and give the main character of your favourite comic some time to adjust to another Viltrumite being around, before you get all stategic and shit.
He definitely won't do something stupid like abscond from the planet to save alien bugs. Definitely won't leave you to become a PR nightmare of a superhero in his absence, and stir the pot of your brand of crazy with the lack of satisfying action.
Yuuuup.

Summary
Nothing good can come from being called into Director Stedman’s office. Especially for a GDA grunt like you, six months into an assignment that usually sees soldiers cycled out after a couple weeks. But if you were going to be re-assigned, you’d expect the dressing down from your commanding officer - not the big boss herself.
Yep. Herself. It’s that AU.
Mark has been locked up for three years with no hope of ever getting out when a new guard starts her first shift.
If he was smarter, he never would've let on how much he likes her. That he thinks of her as his guard, looks forward to every visit, especially the rare times she touches him. Even if he knows that to her, he's just her job, and the guy who failed to take over her planet.
If he was smarter, he wouldn't have been caught in the first place.

Summary
Across nearly a dozen worlds, Mark Grayson is defined to varying extents by the first words his soulmate will say to him, printed on his skin since birth. Whether he fights against, searches for, or simply craves them, it's a bond that can't be broken - even before the words are spoken.
Turns out, his soulmate was never in his world at all.
And with a soulmate, there's no second chance if he ruins it.
Obviously, you know what a soulmate AU is when you wake up in one after the court mandated traumatic death.
Less obvious is how to deal with the sheer number of soulmarks (ha) painting blurry words on your ribcage.
...Your soul is a gigantic slut, and you're about to make this everyone else's problem.

Summary
You're in a bad timeline. The costume gave the game away real fast.
You just don't know how bad until Invincible has you by the throat after you witness him killing a criminal, and you ask him on a date.
In your defence - it was meant to be a joke. Not your fault the freak attached himself to the idea.

Summary
"When Nolan brought you home, Mark had thrown the biggest tantrum. Even after Mom hugged him and assured between kisses to his chubby cheeks that she had enough love for them both. That you would look up to him, and love him, and he would always have someone to play with. He would be a good big brother, Mom said.
But Mark didn’t want a sister. He didn’t understand why you had to stay in his house and hog his parent’s attention – especially Dad’s."
__
"Your first clear memory is Mark’s face – petulantly screwed up in anger. You’d been startled awake because he’s pinching your toes, hard, and it hurts. What else is there to do but cry?"In which you get Isekai'd into the Invincible-verse as Elinor "Ellie" Grayson and definitely DON'T fuck up the timeline by giving Mark a raging Sister Complex. You can definitely fix this, right? Right?
(Chapters 1-2 cover childhood --> early teen years, and onwards catches on to starting canon!)
Inspired by the very talented Nythtak's Charon's Obol fic in the robin in a pine overcoat series!

Summary
“—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”
Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.
“Frank, why would we move in together?”
“I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”
“Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”
At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”
What.
Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.- Language:

Summary
These violent delights have violent ends, and all that glitters is not gold. Lysa is a terrible person doing terrible things, and deserves every terrible consequence that she will bring upon others and possibly herself as a result. Given that she's been reborn as a woman in Westeros, however, that's a price she's willing to pay. It's only gunpowder; what's the worst that can happen?
Or, a villain protagonist makes trainwreck life choices, therefore fitting in with everyone in this god awful world. Readers may rubberneck in hatred or fascination, at your own choosing.

Summary
Turns out, worldwide terrorism doesn’t account for overworked college students taking naps.
Or—The Invincible War starts after you finish working a full shift and, somehow, the day only gets worse from there. You would’ve appreciated a heads up that multiple variants of Invincible have unfinished business with you.

Summary
Shortly after defeating Gaea with the Seven in the second Gigantomachy, Percy finds himself thrown through a fountain into a time where Gaea is once again stirring, the gods are elitist (moreso than usual, anyway), and the first Gigantomachy is right around the corner.
It's... super. Really appreciate this one, gramps. Keep rotting in the Pit.
