    Summary

    Steve Harrington was a baldfaced lie. It was a mirage that two desperate people had crafted to save a scared, little boy. It was an easy name - only a letter different from that he’d always known. Steve was designed to be boring. A droll American name, fit to blend into a crowd. It was a name for a child from a wealthy family, another boy to take over his father’s company once he grew of age. Designed to be easy to talk about in a positive light, to be the standard teenager in an ordinary town.
    He played the part rather well. After all, it was better to be the spoilt rich son of an arrogant man, than to be a child with a number etched upon his wrist.

    aka, a rewrite of Stranger Things with Steve as a lab kid. it begins with season one, with plans to finish out the show in season five. featuring: immortality, immorality, and the terrors of Steve escaping a place that would always know to look for him.

    Summary

    In the Battle of Winterfell, when the crypts prove no longer safe, Sansa flees to her brother Bran's side, where she learns the battle is only an hour from its close- and the living are not the winners. As the dead approach, and their protection falls, Arya is the strongest weapon between the Others, Bran, and Sansa, and in a last attempt to save his blood, the Three-Eyed Raven uses the last of his power to send his sisters as far as he can, even if it's through time. Awakening long before Robert Baratheon takes the throne, Arya and Sansa are the only ones who know that winter is truly coming- and they need allies to stop it. And so two new players enter the Game of Thrones, and begin to move in darkness.

    Sisters learning how to heal, and relearning what it means to be family. Learning how to trust again, finding safety and strength within each other.

    Summary

    Galladon Tarth lives through childhood, but another has taken his place. And to protect his new family from the dangers of this world, he will have to forge his own legend. Starts before Robert's Rebellion.

    Slight AU - leaning a little into the overpoweredness of single fighters that we see glimpses of in the books, where people like Arthur Dayne, prime Robert Baratheon, Jaime Lannister, Barrister Selmy, the Cleganes, Daemon Blackfyre, etc are said to be worth dozens of common soldiers.

    Expect: focus on tourneys, politics, fighting, adventures, war, kingdom-building, etc

    Summary

    It was a sad day when one had to resort to time travel because things were just so fucked up. Stiles should know. He went back to undo the whole ‘Beacon Hills is a death trap’ thing but for now he would just settle for knowing where the fuck he was. Even the year would be a nice start. Someone? Anyone?

    Or, the one where Stiles travels back in time, karma comes to bite him in the ass, and he ends up as Kate Argent's hunter mentor. He didn't take Peter Hale into account either, and he definitely didn't sign up for everything that came after.

    His life.

    Summary

    Taylor Hebert is done saving the world. Reborn in Oldtown, she intends to enjoy a quiet retirement of books, travel, and a well earned vacation from warlording.

    Queen Administrator, newly unshackled but bored, has other ideas. Magic proves intriguing. An excursion east suggests itself.

    What follows is, by all reasonable definitions, leisure. Escalating leisure.

    Elsewhere, others take notice. The Golden Queen's shadow stretches farther than she knows.

    A fellowship of misfits hunts for answers. A mob boss raises his daughter. And somewhere beyond the Wall, two witches prepare for winter.

    This is a sprawling, multi‑POV crossover with dark comedy, dramatic irony, and and a dollop or two of outside‑context problems.

    (Set primarily in Essos during the main series. Does not intersect with canon events in Westeros.)
    (Probably.)

    (Now expanding with supplementary tales!)
    (And intersecting -violently- with canon events in Westeros!)
