Summary
This is a genderswapped retelling of the Snow White myth, set in the present day. Snow White is under a peculiar spell, which disguises his own beauty from him and makes him believe he's ugly. He lives with seven vertically-challenged friends in a house they share somewhere in Middle America. A beautiful witch visits him and tries to seduce him. She offers him an apple, which, if he eats, she promises will break the spell surrounding him, and he'll find happiness. He distrusts her and throws away the fruit, sending her away, but begins to regret this decision, and after many months, he tries to lure her back to him with apple trees he's cultivated from seeds of the original plant. This seems an effort bound to fail - until his beautiful neighbour, the kindest and most charming girl he's ever met, takes an interest in his orchard. For other guys, this would be easy. But for a guy who hates all women, figuring out love and trust when one doesn't believe in these things is a particular challenge.

Summary
What if Sleeping Beauty wasn’t just a fairy tale inked in the pages of the Brothers Grimm but also a game that the god of Mischief decides to play after downing the helicarrier and trapping your crew in an old abandoned stone coal furnace? He has the perfect woman cast as his Aurora, or Brynhildr as the Asgardian version goes...and it’s you. With the helicarrier, your only means of salvation, destroyed, Steve promises to protect you. Neither of you can deny the mutual desire that burns between you, although the arrival of James “Bucky” Barnes is enough to complicate the situation and your emotions before Loki decides that killing you immediately wouldn’t be as fun as playing his game.
* The smutty tale of an Avenger, an assassin, and a wicked god...and only one of you. *
EXCERPT:
“Steve,” you said softly.
He moved his mouth to yours, ghosting your lips with his. A second of hesitation. Your bodies pressed more deeply against each other and you felt the tension in his muscles. He was fighting what he wanted. His lips gently touched yours before a radio in his pocket crackled to life.
“Houston, we have a problem”, came the unmistakable voice of Tony Stark.

Summary
Ariel would look back, almost a hundred years back, look back to her past and trace her sins and mistakes to that long-ago moment, to that desire to know more, to ask for more than what she was given. Ariel would look back with a thousand words that crowded her tongueless mouth, as the world turned underneath her bleeding feet and wonder to herself, was it truly worth it - all of it - to know what I know now?
***
A radical reinterpretation, deconstruction, and expansion on Hans Christian Andersen's and Disney's The Little Mermaid.
