Summary
Originally a fill posted at norsekink in response to the prompt:
"After the Avengers capture Loki at the end of the movie, they lock him up as a precaution before shipping him off to Asgard. And being the good guys, they decide to give him the chance to bathe and dress in clean clothes instead of sleeping in his own dirty rags.
The problem is, without the whole battle gear and the drawn and mean look, Loki looks surprisingly young, which prompts the Avengers to ask Thor just how old Loki really is. Of course Loki is centuries old, but Thor tells them that in human standard, Loki would still be considered underage!
Cue to horrified Avengers who wants to know exactly what sort of crappy home life Loki must have had to end up like this before even reaching adulthood."
It rather spiralled from there into a behemoth, now in the process of being edited and hopefully cleaned of glaring plotholes! Updated daily.

Summary
Splitoff timeline—the battleship catches up with the meteor on its trip to the next session. John, Jade, the sprites, and the consorts assimilate themselves into everyday life in the troll's former ectobiology laboratory. Faced with what could well be the end of the existence of two races, relationships form and dissolve, tension rises, and in the middle of all this John comes to the disconcerting realization that Karkat is actually kind of cute. Like a puppy dog, or a little kid. Not cute in that way, definitely not. No.

Summary
The Ringmaster might be gone, but LA is still full of dangers for the refugees of an alien race. As some struggle to start new lives, others fight to forge a future for everyone. When the one person who can't fight for herself is in danger, it falls to her friends to decide: who will be a hero, and who will need saving?
And more importantly, can they be saved at all?
Author's Note: You don't have to know Alien Nation at all to read, understand or enjoy this fic! You should probably read Home Is Where The Heart Is first, though.

Summary
“I knew a program called Jarvis once.”
“A friend of yours, sir?”
“He was a back-stabbing, boot-licking, unprincipled data-pusher who abandoned his User and got exactly what was coming to him,” Tron said.
“I’m sorry, sir. I hope you won’t hold the memory of this person against me,” JARVIS said.
LoraB heaved a weary sigh. “Tron, honey, we talked about this. I called it ‘tact’, remember?”Mild suit-related IM3 spoilers.

Summary
After almost two years, Steve Rogers thinks he's finally got a handle on this whole "future" thing. Sure, the food and the fashion and the manners are different. Sure, he still hasn't quite figured out these smartphone things. On the other hand, his girlfriends - if that's even the right word - have enough tech savvy between them for any three people. No, Steve Rogers definitely has the future well in hand, and today he wants to celebrate with a trip to a ballgame at his old home stadium in Brooklyn.
The future can be a sneaky thing, sometimes.

Summary
A/U Sandor Clagane is a Wilding man who sees Sansa while hunting near Winterfell and decides to kidnap her and return North of the Wall with her as his wife. Knowing her father's bannermen hold to the old ways, Sansa decides to try to make the marriage by capture work even as her father and brothers set out to find her. Time frame takes place before King Robert comes to Winterfell.
Please be aware my Sandor characterization is more T.V. Sandor than canon Sandor in this story. When I was writing this I felt the difference in the A/U necessitated it-Sandor isn't the Hound from KL here; he's a wilding, so he's still rough and tough but not so angry :)
After rereading this story, I admit it was a hot mess and as of 3/20 /13 it has been completely reworked. Concrit is most welcome :D
