Summary
Loki sa che è solo questione di tempo. Sa che Thor non se ne rende conto ma che Asgard – nonostante l'incredibile elasticità che ha dimostrato finora – se l'aspetta. Sa che le casate dei Nove Mondi educano le loro figlie e le agghindano come se fossero già sovrane, aspettando l'apertura dell'asta.

Summary
Steve doesn't understand why he and Tony just don't get along, and finally fed up begins asking for help amongst his fellow Avengers. The eye-opening results put him on a path to a new self-awareness and better relationship with the whole team, not just Tony.
Meanwhile, Tony is seeking a new opportunity to be a better hero, to open new doors to a better world besides just clean energy. After all, between politics, research, cost, competitor's contracts, and other issues, it will be decades before that shows any real results on a nationwide scale, much less global. Perhaps Alpha/Omega rights, something he can support now, will suit the bill?
He might even come out of hiding himself. -

Summary
Whereby the Holmes boys grapple with the consequences of their mistakes.
This is a fairly long case fic tinged with slowly developing johnlock and actual character growth and development. I decided to write it because I thought Mycroft needed a girlfriend, and I wanted to vomit forth some of my headcanon about who he is and what he does. So this is a story about Mycroft Holmes, told from the point of view of Sherlock and John. It is a story about making mistakes and forgiving the people who make them. And last but certainly not least, it is a cyberpunk-lite spy story, because that's how I roll.

The aim of it--all of it--was to bring peace between their kingdoms. Instead, they got a sorcerer, a changeling, a creature born between worlds.
Peace, their voices chanted.
But war was in their blood.

Summary
Dain's daughter was not present when last he went to the Iron Hills, and he has not seen her since she was hiding in her mother's skirts. So when the match is proposed to him Thorin almost recoils in horror. Marriages to cement alliances are not unheard of, nor do dwarves find them distasteful if neither party is forced into it. But the girl is younger than his nephews - 70 perhaps, no older.

Summary
The king has a nephew: a young, skinny thing with dark hair and dark eyes. He looks like any other young dwarf--not yet grown, and not yet much of anything at all. He is undiscovered potential, perhaps--that may be what the king sees in him, because the king treats him gently. The king smiles at him, and touches his hair, and gives praise and reprimands in equal measure.
The king has a lion, too: a massive beast, with a thick, coarse mane the color of amber and wheat. The lion’s paws are thrice the size of any dwarf’s hands, and when it yawns, its mouth is red and its teeth are white. It follows the king’s nephew like a dog, and its withers are at a height with the nephew’s shoulders.
---
It's like the bastard child of Bisclavret and The Hobbit. It's nominally a shapeshifting AU, but in truth, it's all fairytales and lais and (skin-based) shapeshifters, and implied torture and mutilation. And like, so much god damned symbolism. I’m sorry. I got a bit carried away.

Someone is trying to take over the world and Steve seems to be the only one to realize but there is nothing he can do, so he leaves. A few weeks later Tony finds him in the middle of nowhere and says he has a plan. -

Summary
“I am a national treasure,” Louis flips his hair dramatically, “Practically America’s sweetheart.”
Harry says nothing then, just watches him with soft, hazy eyes, and Louis feels the silliness in the air die out. It gets quiet then, between them, and Louis clears his throat, looking down to his lap where his thumbs are fighting with each other.
“You are though, you know,” Harry whispers quietly, “A sweetheart, that is. America’s sweetheart.”
