    Summary

    The Arbiter's initial studies of human culture didn't happen after the Great Schism; he's figured out things about their species through long observation and plenty of patience. He'll acknowledge their new alliance gives him plenty of resources to fall back on when he doesn't understand something. Frankly, he doesn't get a LOT of the customs these people have.

    But it's good to increase his knowledge: as a curious Sangheili, he has many burning questions, ones he's harbored for years that ought to be answered at long last. There's only one problem he's got no hope of fixing.

    See, he REALLY wishes he could figure out if this 'bond' with his enemy-turned-ally is purely platonic, or he's instigated a serious courtship between them. Chief is being rude in not clearing up the matter but then again, the Arbiter is kind of shitty at clarifying what his questions are.

    Misunderstanding is in plenty but were it so easy to understand one another's intentions, then they'd never learn how to become each other's equal.

    Summary

    They stand apart from humans as heroes, saviors, and gods among men. But when we stand in the shadows of gods, we fail to see the cost to them. Sometimes the only one that can understand the weight of the universe is someone else who bears it.

    After the end of Halo 3, the Master Chief - soldier, Spartan, saviour - is flung into the Mass Effect universe where he is discovered by Abigail Shepard, legendary Spectre and hero of humanity. A meeting of absolute cosmic impossibility within a chain of events that will threaten both of their universes.

    Along the way three venerated gods will be forced to tackle the concept of 'being human'.

    Summary

    After losing everything, (No way home, no home to return to, no UNSC, no Spartans… no Blue Team.) John found himself living with what remains of Humanity on Zeta Halo with Esparza and Joyeuse. Five years of rediscovering how to live, how to be human, and how to find peace has changed the Legendary Master Chief into someone only physically recognizable.

    Only to be ripped from this peace and dumped into an old nightmare thought to have been settled and laid to rest.

    He’s not the only one who becomes stranded out of place and out of time.

    Summary

    It had occurred to Dunk in those final moments that they would probably not recover his body, that he would be nought but ash by the time the fires were brought under control. But that thought had oddly comforted him in a way, that there would be no grand funeral for the Lord Commander who had failed.

    Failed to save more from the fire, failed to stop Aegon in the first place. Who knows, maybe his failure had even begun back in the hedges, maybe something he had done or not done had made Aegon the man who had done..this.

    He would do anything to go back and fix it, had been his last thought before the sensations shifted from heat to cold, from fire to waves, from pain to panic.

    or, dunk perishes in fire at summerhall and washes up on the sands of dragonstone. dragons still roam the skies, rhaenyra targaryen still lives and dunk quickly discovers he's not the only one lost in this time.

    Summary

    His gauntlet comes to Dunk's face, brushes clumsily over him. "My man," he breathes, barely a whisper, and there's blood on the metal, and it smears over his lips as he weeps, "Your man."

    Something sparks in his - his head, his guts - wrenching -

    Summary

    the chronological compilation of all the 'do or do not' snippets and ficlets

    Summary:

    When Obi-Wan dies by Anakin's hand, he expects that to be the end.

    It is not.

    When he opens his eyes again, all of thirteen but with forty extra years of experience, not even the dust, dread, and death on Melidaan can stand in his way. Obi-Wan had seen the worst that the galaxy had to offer twice over - he'll be damned if he lets everything happen the same way for the second time.

    Enter one Jedi Master Yan Dooku, the lynchpin to so many of the galaxy's darkest turns in the future-that-was. Torn between a Master who doesn't seem to want him and a man wearing the face of the Sith who had once tortured him, Obi-Wan makes a choice.

    Summary

    Despite what most people thought, Percy’s first title wasn’t ‘son of Poseidon’ or ‘defeater of the minotaur’.

    No, his very first title was Perseus Odysseus Wayne, Prince of Gotham.

    Gotham’s press went wild the day he was born –partially, because his father was only eighteen when he had him. While Gotham obviously wasn’t very conservative, it was still quite the scandal. Especially given that Percy’s other parent was completely unknown.

    His face was plastered across every headline for three weeks and would be a frequent part of the news for many years to follow. Being the only child of Bruce Wayne, the sole Wayne family heir, was a very big deal.

    Not that Percy really cared.

    - - -

    Or in a universe where Bruce Wayne, a man with clear sight blessed by Nemesis, fell in love with Poseidon, who was being compelled to have a child by the fates, have a son together, Percy Jackson's life ends up just a little different. Not enough to change the timeline, but enough to change his childhood and eventually, his life post-war. Especially when he discovers his dead brother is alive and subsequently returns to Gotham.

    Summary

    This was not the way things were supposed to go. Poseidon had been keeping his distance to keep his son safe but he had people still looking in on him to make sure he was okay. But he never had imagined that the threat would come from the place he was supposed to be safe at.

    There is a reason why you don't let non healers try to treat major injuries Chiron. Even if you've trained them.

    Summary

    This is what he’d been waiting for, this is why he’d suffered centuries in an odd sort of stasis. He’d seen the rise and fall of empire after empire, felt spikes in magic and heard whispers of legend that were so close to the real thing he’d nearly deluded himself into believing it time and time again, but nothing had felt quite like this.

    After an entire millennium of waiting, he had work to do: the King had returned.

    -

    Or: Harry Potter is the fated Future King of Camelot and Merlin refuses to allow him to grow up alone. Magic intervenes, Harry finds a home, and Merlin finally remembers what it's like to love.

    Summary

    'This story happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. It is already over. Nothing can be done to change it.'

    Wrong.

    The Force and the Manda, though to some people they were one and the same, decided that the universe needed a do-over. Picking and choosing people from multiple points in the timeline, whether they were one with the universe or not, and sending them back to a point in time where most of this timeline's problems originated.

    Read as three groups of people whose lives are intertwined and connected through various ways, somehow figure out their place in a time where they're either very young or not even a thought in their ancestors' heads. They somehow bring the world to a more balanced time through increasingly unconventional means, and possibly the downfall of a few governments, syndicates, and factions.
