Summary
In a strange turn of events Tony Stark finds himself aboard a pirate ship. Rather than being terrified like any sane person would be he finds himself rather infatuated with the captain. Pirate AU based off of RP with a friend. This is my first fic for this fandom so go easy on me.
"Across the globe many pirates were notorious for their craft but by far the most infamous of band of pirates was the crew of the great ship the Avenger. No, it was not for their cruelty or for their blunder. These were no ordinary rats of the sea. Whisper the Avengers and any cake eater will weep and cringe. Lead by their fearless captain the crew would steal from the rich and give to the poor. A merry band of robin hoods upon the hallowed seas. Is there a better way to be known and feared? Yet, even in their spotlight, not a single soul had actually seen what the crew. At least not until they got involved with a certain inventor."

Summary
Come, dear reader, and follow us to the world of clockwork and dark secrets; where men of brass walk alongside men of flesh, and none but God knows which heart is filled with true humanity.
In this particular tale our hero arrives in Montreuil-sous-Mer, becomes the Grand Ingeniare, and earns the love of all men and women – with the exception of one cold-eyed Inspector.
[Valjean, Javert and a steampunk dystopia]

Summary
(In Time AU) In 2169, time is money—literally. Humans are genetically engineered to stop aging at 25, when the numbers on their arm start counting down from one year. When that time is up, they die. The only way to get more time is to earn it, borrow it, or steal it.
John Watson lives day-to-day in the crowded slums of Zone 13. He never imagined living any differently—until he meets the practically-immortal Sherlock, and helps him on a case to track a local time-thief...

Summary
In a world where everyone has a robotic troll companion, one boy does not get the troll he wants. The two of them need to learn to live with each other and probably become champions of the city-wide troll-fighting tournament, or something. Something of a backhanded homage to fighting tournament anime, particularly, that's right, DBZ. I mean, Angelic Layer. not enough to count as a crossover though.

Summary
"All ambient noise will hush and halt in the main rooms of the Musain when the voice begins speaking and he knows that. Twenty-three hours of radio static and an hour of reverence are how his breed of revolutionary has come to recognize their own. If you believe in the cause, you are always listening, always waiting."
In which Enjolras leads a dystopian society to revolution, Grantaire is both his greatest inspiration and his greatest obstacle, and the real monsters are not the ones hiding in the dark.

Summary
Mercenary space captain Kate Bishop's got a loyal crew (mostly), an unreliable space ship (hey don't you say that Dawn's Archer is perfect), some unresolved anger issues (some faces that need grinding that is), and a lot of moral gray areas that she likes to play around in as she roams the galaxy, taking whatever jobs she can find. When her ship takes on some unusual passengers, however, everything goes completely off the rails.
This is it! It's the Young Avengers/Firefly mashup that you've always wanted even if you never knew it!

Summary
So after so much running, and so many times, and so many places, and so many threats to his life and limbs, Darren should maybe be used to getting left behind a few times. But it still fucking sucks to wander around on some unknown planet by himself, just because the Doctor got a little too exuberant and ran off.
Actually, Darren can't really hold anything against him for that. He's lost count of how many times the Doctor's had to chase him down because he got a little too excited.
