Summary
There is something magical about childhood. Sometimes entirely in the fairytale sense. The only question is what it costs… and who pays.
Author’s Note:
Chronologically, this story takes place between Circles of Sight and Willing Harvest. Reading it in that order will give you additional context, and certain moments may land with greater impact, especially once you reach Definitely Not a Hero’s Journey. You’ll notice things Amy doesn’t, and there’s a particular kind of fun in watching a POV character slowly piece together what you already suspect.
However, that approach also softens some of the intended mystery and undercuts the unreliable narrator element. For that reason, I’ve placed this story later in the series.
You may find it more satisfying to wait and read A Gift of Death after Definitely Not a Hero’s Journey is complete (which I hope to finish within the next few months). Doing so might even give you a reason to revisit the series with fresh eyes.
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but consider this your warning: There are SPOILERS ahead!Series

Summary
Amy Thomas thought being assigned to watch “Benjamin Adams” was punishment enough. Two hundred years old, lazy, and apparently allergic to responsibility. Hardly the stuff of legend. But when a pair of very aggressive ravens start stalking them across the continent, it turns out her immortal isn’t quite who she thought he was.
Now they’re on a road trip from hell, and the universe seems intent on dragging Methos back into a god’s war he wants absolutely nothing to do with.Series

for a hundred visions and revisions by aventria, iluxia

Summary
Dr. Strange looks at the world after Thanos and, faced with its seemingly irreparable brokenness, breaks his own oath. Tony, Stephen, and Loki go back in time for one more chance - an intentional choice, because they are each other's insurance against repeating the same mistakes. Tony wakes up shortly before the Stark Expo with the reactor's palladium core still poisoning him. Stephen wakes up with undamaged hands and a flourishing medical career. Loki wakes up in Asgard one day before Thor's coronation.
"Do I dare disturb the universe? / In a minute there is time / for decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse."
[ Yet another take on that time travel fic with lots of worldbuilding, hand-wavey comic book science, political intrigue, inventing, nerding out, and a broken Tony trying to fix a broken world - but this time he's not alone. ]

skin your children for a war drum by WhereTheWildThingsHide
Fandoms: House of the Dragon (TV)
19 Nov 2025

Summary
King Viserys, the first of his name, dies alone and rotting, though most will say that he had died many sunturns before, on the eve of what maesters will come to name, 'the dance of the dragons', a bloody and unjust civil war between the Greens and the Blacks. Between his firstborn and his first son.
The fool king dies alone, with just the memory of false peace between the two branches of his family to calm his failing heart.
Delighted to finally be reunited with his love, Aemma, and their lost children, Visery instead awakes an odd Twenty-and-one sun turns before, at what he now knows to be the beginning of the end for the house of the dragons. His blood calls for that of towers, and with what he knows to come, no thing in all of the seven kingdoms will sate his hunger.
