Summary
Jaskier has been in hiding for a good part of a quarter-century. Inspiration running thin, and Sandpiping taking up most of his energy, he meets up with an old associate who's offering him a job. Now he'll need to make up with his chaos if he wants to unearth both Dijkstra and his associate's true motivations. He surely does not count on Yennefer stumbling into his mess though. Oh well, once in Oxenfurt... You know how the saying goes.
Or: Jaskier has done some pretty nasty stuff in the past as a mage and that past might end up being more a blessing than a curse. But only time will show.

Summary
As war shadows the Continent, Jaskier finds himself entangled in forces far older and darker than his songs ever warned him about. Strange tremors of magic, buried histories, and relentless hunters converge on the Hansa, pulling him into a mystery he never asked to inherit.
With Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri at his side, Jaskier must navigate rising chaos, shifting loyalties, and whispers of a prophecy that seems—uncomfortably—to point toward him.
A tale of found family, hidden power, and a song that may yet change the fate of the world.

Summary
Zuzana was a hedge witch. Zuzana was a collector of folktales and songs. Zuzana was able to heal and curse, mixing Aretuza’s teachings with what she had learned during her travels. Zuzana’s name and purpose were forgotten long ago, her deeds and sins washed away by time, only some of the oldest mages remembering she ever existed.
Then Nilfgaard decided to ignore its borders and the black army engulfed the continent, sending the wheels of fate spinning faster than before. A sorceress, a bard, and a child soon find themselves in the company of the witch. She will now have to contact an old friend, inform him of his brand new grandchild, and hope, that the old wolf still thinks of her fondly. After all, she promised to help the child find the father fates saddled her with.
...
I mostly use the books' plot for reference, but it is an AU, and I am intentionally not following the original. This is the most plot-based work I have ever tried to post here, and I hope I will be able to emulate the mix of book atmosphere with the soothing vibes of found family fanfiction.Bookmarked by whenitgrowsbright

Summary
An alternate world where Iroh leads a coup against Ozai on the eclipse and wins the throne for Zuko. The southern water tribe hadn't sent men to fight in thirty years, instead protecting their home, laying traps, using guerilla tactics so the fire nation gave up fighting them.
Sokka and Katara found Aang, but being frozen in ice for a hundred years has ramifications and for almost four years the tribe focuses on healing the avatar.
Zuko is advised for continued peace to have an arranged marriage outside the fire nation. The best option is a the child of the chief of the southern tribe. Katara is in love with Aang and is heartbroken, but will do her duty for her people. Sokka finds a loophole that they can carefully and craftily exploit.
Aka they lie. They lie so hard and Sokka becomes the one betrothed to Fire Lord Zuko. He is sure there will be no consequences to the plan. Certainly not going to fall in love with the man he is lying to. At all. Nope indeedy, no love on the menu. Dang it.

Summary
Michael Afton has always been good at following orders.
Even when they don’t make sense.
Even when they hurt.
Even when they lead him somewhere deep underground where the machines whisper like ghosts.His father told him he would find something there.
Instead, Michael finds something worse: the truth about what his family was built on.
While Michael descends further into the machinery of his father’s legacy, Mike Schmidt begins having dreams about a house on a hill — a house that shouldn’t mean anything to him… and yet somehow does.
Their paths are already tangled in blood and guilt.
They just don’t know it yet.
And somewhere in the future, long after the rot has settled into the walls of another Fazbear attraction, Michael Afton will come face to face with the one person he has been chasing his entire life.

Summary
Michael laughs—a thin, breathy sound that immediately turns into a pained groan. He squeezes his eyes shut, jaw tight, then opens them again, glaring. “So what?” he spits. “You’re just gonna keep me here?”
“Yes,” Mike says before he can stop himself.
The word hangs there, heavy. Michael is ramrod straight, looking up at Mike. Really, truly looking; something ugly flickers behind his eyes, and a feral grin grows.
“Wow. So confident.”
Mike stiffens. “I’m not letting you go until I know why you were here.”
Michael’s smile sharpens, mocking voice dripping with venom. “I’d rather die than become your little house pet.”
Or: Mike Schmidt accidentally daddy doms Michael Afton into self-care.

Summary
“And why should I-” Ford begins to say, anger building ever hotter, before somehow Stanley manages to shock Ford once again. Stan reaches behind him and pushes a kid forward from where he’d apparently been hiding just out of sight.
A kid.
A child, really.
A kid who looks a little familiar. Something about the shape of his nose. It reminds Ford of his mom, in a way. And the hair reminds him of his dad. And Stanely has this kid. That is with him. Right now. On Ford’s porch in Gravity Falls.
“Stanley,” Ford says, in a rush that screams he should’ve finished drinking his coffee before answering the door, “You have-”oOo
Ford's research is interrupted by his estranged brother showing up on his doorstep with a kid who claims to be time traveller. Meanwhile in the present, Stan and Mabel try to figure out how to get Dipper back to the right time. There will be secrets revealed, old wounds readdressed, and above it all a one-eyed demon watches with interest.
