    Summary

    Peter is fine, anyways. His boss might fire him soon, the Avengers might arrest him soon, the principal might expel him soon, but none of it has happened yet. And his dad—
    “You didn’t get my coffee,” his dad says, halfway through his burrito. He has been in a state of low, simmering irritation all evening, and apparently this is how long it took for him to find a reason to blame Peter for it.
    “You didn’t tell me to get coffee.”
    “Do you have eyes?”
    “Yes,” Peter says. “I have eyes.”
    “So you could have checked if we needed coffee without me telling you every little thing, Jesus Christ.”
    -
    Peter just wants to make it to sixteen so he can escape this life and strike out on his own. He has a plan and nothing will ruin it.
    Not even Tony Stark quite literally crashing into his life.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I adore this story! It's so interesting to see Jon progress in a realistic way. Like, yes, it makes sense for him to be crowned King at some point because of his heritage, and that's kind of what everyone wants to write him as. But it's also very interesting to see how far he could progress on his own merits. Make him a legendary swordsman, and he has the makings for exactly this: son of a Lord Paramount, man of honor, etc. With all of that, it's neat to watch him build a life for himself, make a place for himself in a way that has nothing to do with his Kingly heritage. While I'd be happy if that's the direction you eventually go in, this is really a breath of fresh air. I've never read anything quite like this story. I love how Jon makes enemies, powerful enemies, but also makes powerful friends. I love seeing you explore these characters and matches that I've never seen anyone do before. And it's very cool to see how one twist - Jon going south in a believable way, can change things so dramatically from canon. I'm very excited to continue reading this work!

    On ch 51. There's some grammar errors, and some odd ways of writing that bring it down from true master work, but still so much fun to read that I'd be happy to call it a 5.

    Uuuggggghhhh Rhaenyra being buried in a shroud quartered with the Beesbury crest just slayed me. What a great end to a great story!

    Only reason it’s not a 5 is that at times it felt a little wish-fulfill-y, but very very close to the upper edge

    Summary

    As they flew, Rhaenys watched her granddaughter. Her curls had been blown free from their pins, streaming in the wind, and she had raised a hand to idly trace the underside of a cloud. A sudden desperation seized her. If Corlys died, Baela would be one of the last two things binding her to this life.

    Rhaenys shook her head, discarding the feeling, and settled in her saddle. There were three things that she had absolute faith in: Meleys, her husband, and that it would be Baela who would inherit the Driftwood Throne, even if it killed Rhaenys to put her there.

    Rhaenys pushes for Baela's claim during the Driftmark succession crisis and finds herself sharing common ground with Alicent Hightower and her strange, half-Targaryen children. As war seizes the realm, Rhaenys, Baela, and Rhaena must navigate House Velaryon to safety, fighting alongside the people always believed to be their enemy.

    Summary

    Summary: When Dr. Michael Chen, a mechanical engineer with a penchant for lean manufacturing, wakes up in the freezing body of a newborn Eddard Stark, he knows two things: Winter is coming, and the current technological level of Westeros is woefully insufficient to survive it. Determined to save his family from their canonical fates, Ned replaces honor with infrastructure. He builds glass gardens to feed the North, paper mills to spread knowledge, and a concrete fortress to lock the Neck. But technology cannot solve every problem.

    To save the realm, Ned must play the game of thrones—not with whispers, but with audits. He forms an unlikely "Board of Directors" to purge the Crown's debt and turns the Night’s Watch into an industrial war machine.

    An ASOIAF SI/Uplift story where Ned Stark is an Engineer, Joffrey Baratheon is terrifyingly competent, and Robert Baratheon finally finds a war worthy of his hammer.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Ooooh I love this chapter and I love this arc. (And I love Arc). I’ve never thought of the political knowledge that Jon can impart on a savvier version of Ned. That was his true weakness in canon, and one of Jon’s real strengths. I’ve seen plenty of SI fics where they bring in the engineering, but not enough fics where the world changes the character. That’s what makes your writing really special. The world, and the story, are changing Chen/Ned. He’s learning and growing, changing the world and also getting changed by it. This has been really fun to read. I also really like your grasp of characters. Lyarra, Bob, etc feel like people, and it’s fun to see the depth you put into them. Thanks so much for writing!!

    Ps: I also caught the Star Wars reference haha

    Summary

    One moment, Jason was peacefully sleeping, perfectly content with his life with the League of Assassins. Okay, so maybe not content content, but he wasn't unhappy, either. Then Talia woke him up at 2 am, threw three children at him, and told him to get them to America and far away from Ra's al Ghul.

    What the fuck.

    The last thing he wanted was to see Bruce. But with three brats relying on him and no Talia, there weren't many options for sanctuary. He just didn't expect the kids to grow on him so much in two short weeks.

    I love the Flash chapters so much. They always make me so happy. Like “oh no these fools are going to realize I’m a massive imposter” he says, right before ending the Crackclaw point rebellion in single combat, or foiling the plot to burn down Braavos. I think he’s my favorite character in this story.

    A great story overall! Wonderful worldbuilding, but ends a bit meh. It goes to show the narrative weakness of the author. They’re kind of like Dune- unbelievable world building and plot, but just ok to good interpersonal narrative artist, so the ending lacks that “whump” of a great close. Without a doubt a phenomenal fic though, but the above is what keeps it from a true 5.

    Very, very fun read. I skipped most of chapter 1 as I didn't really care about the justifications of the time travel. The only mark against this is that Jon is a Mary Sue, but that was kind of the point of the story. Otherwise the plot is super, super interesting, and it's cool to see how Jon continually rejected the "easy" path in the beginning, which led to greater and greater rewards at the end. Plus, there was really neat canon divergence from small ripple effects, and the ending is very satisfying. A great story!
