Summary
In Asgard, post-Avengers, Loki is drawn into a whirlwind of deceit and ancient blood debt surrounding one of the Queen's handmaidens. At the same time, a shadowy menace stalks Asgard, eluding capture despite Thor's best efforts. When these two quests intertwine, Loki must confront both the rift between himself and his brother, and the sacrifices he is willing to make to meet his heart's greatest need.

Summary
Resolution in character; inspired by the characters' choices and motivations as written for the screen. In transforming (pun intended) GoLion into Lion Voltron the writers created a children's show at once written in the broadest of strokes, with touches of great subtlety.
A very familiar scenario provides the structure for a story of love and of outer and inner conflicts left unresolved at original Lion Voltron's end (including the events of Fleet of Doom)-most notably those of Prince Lotor, Voltron's greatest character.
Voltron always had and still has the potential to be something truly great, if there were confidence enough in the show's original characters and their universe of science fiction and magic, and a sorta fairytale.

Summary
A beginning of a very, very long fiction about Loki's fall and his ultimate redemption with the two sisters who help him get there. It will include multiple pairings and a balancing act of about three or four voices (stories) like a fugue. Thanos is around and trying to prove his love for Mistress Death by destroying Earth, a frontier he has not explored in that aspect. He does not have all six Infinity Gems, but it is up to Loki, the Avengers, and the two sisters to save the day.

Summary
But Melkor came nigh then, and pressed himself against Mairon’s back, so that he needed to bend to speak in his ear, and his cloak of darkness drew about them. To any who might have seen, those two together were a sight of surpassing beauty. Mairon was as if a brand of gold and orange and yellow, a blazing star amid Melkor’s darkness, made the brighter and hotter by it, and the blackness in which Melkor arrayed himself seemed an endless, velvet void.

Summary
“You’re my best friend.” Sherlock’s grip tightened, and John felt unhealthily warm. He wanted to take off his jumper, and maybe his shirt. He didn’t want to move. He wanted to keep feeling Sherlock’s hand in his and the freedom to say silly, sentimental things while the darkness shielded them from self-consciousness.
