    Summary

    Upon arriving back in Whitestone, Fredrick calls his third child to his side and says gravely, "My son, while I was gone I made arrangements for you to be married."

    Percival, who was raised in nobility and has always quietly feared this exact thing his entire life, sets his jaw and nods obediently. "Yes, Father," he says, and then holes himself up in his workshop to drink.

    Upon arriving back in Syngorn, Sildor calls the girl child to his side and says gravely, "My daughter, while I was gone I made arrangements for you to be married."

    Vex'ahlia throws a chair through a window.

    Or, the one where the Briarwoods never took over Whitestone, Thordak never destroyed Byroden, and two asshole nobles make a snap decision over whiskey. Percival struggles with his chronic emotional constipation and works on his tan, Vex'ahlia commits arson and sighs a lot, the de Rolo siblings win the award for Tal'Dorei's Least Helpful Peanut Gallery, and, eventually, there's a wedding. If they can all survive each other long enough to get to it.

    Summary

    Sixteen months.

    Sixteen agonizing, emotional months Sousa had spent kicking himself, searching every single radio wave he could find, almost giving up more times than he could count. And that seed of doubt she’d unknowingly planted in his mind . . . that maybe not everyone was who they seemed.

    She’d sent him on a wild goose chase, unknowingly, in more ways than one.

    .


    Or: Daniel Sousa finally gets the go-ahead to bring his team into the field, and it's the best two years of his life. But when Daisy -- his partner and best friend -- goes mysteriously missing, it sets off a domino effect of events that could change their lives, and the future of SHIELD, forever.

    (Dousy modern day AU!)

    Summary

    Skyenet is one of the best hackers in the world, but nobody knew who she was. Tony was determined to change that.
    Quake was a small-time local vigilante until she stopped a bank robbery with a new distortion weapon Shield wants and sends Natasha and Clint to acquire.
    Daisy was just a teenage jogger until Steve sees bruises on her face and gets concerned.

     

    It would have really helped all four Avengers if someone had told them they were all looking for the same person.

     

    In which Jarvis gets a date, Tony gets hacked, Clint goes on a trip down memory lane, Steve stress bakes, certain AIs gain sentience, certain programmers don't sleep, and Daisy doesn't think before she speaks, not necessarily in that order.

     

    I've borrowed a character from Agents of Shield, and it contains spoilers for season 2, but you don't have to have watched Agents of Shield to understand this fic.
