Summary
An AU setting, where Alistair, Cailan and Maric make one memorable trip to Orzammar, and Alistair meets Princess Vaia Aeducan.
In exchange for a story on the Dragon Age kmeme, I offered a fill to this prompt.
Alistair, youngest son of Maric's, is the spare of the pair. His father decides to take Cailan (as a last journey before he is married) and him on his annual trip to Orzammar. This would be Alistair's first time visiting. Cailan makes a comment about dwarven women, complete with a lecherous grin, but Alistair thinks he is putting him on. Until he sees the the noble women of the Diamond Quarter, the beauties that are the noble-hunters and then finally he is introduced to King Endrin's beloved daughter.

Summary
A prequel prequel. Megatron rises to power from Kaon's underworld, Ratbat falls from the glory of the Golden Age, and Soundwave, a drone, learns of what part he is to play in the destiny of Cybertron.
(This expands upon the brief histories given in both Transformers: Prime and also War For Cybertron, setting the stage for the events that will come later and detailing the reasoning behind some of both universes' unique features: Drones, Megatron's engineering skills, the origins of mechanical life, etc)
Some surprising cameos await.

Summary
John Watson is no stranger to loss. First a bullet stole his military career. Then he lost his best friend, the only person he ever truly loved. Now, all that's left for him is vengeance on those who he holds responsible for Sherlock's suicide.
Too late, Sherlock realizes the price he's paid to play Moriarty's game. With the help of Mycroft and the resources of the Home Office, Sherlock continues with his plan to take down Moriarty's criminal empire. Though he's confident he'll one day succeed, the only question left is whether or not John will ever forgive him.
Meanwhile, John turns to the one person who knows more about revenge than anyone else-- his old friend, James Bond -- and makes a bargain that will change the lives of everyone involved.
