    Summary

    If being a superhero was as simple as “find bad guys and punch them,” life would be much easier for Tony. Tony saved the past, but not the future. The secret of Iron Man's true identity is in danger of being exposed, his company is facing a new crisis, the Avengers are on the verge of collapse, and his relationship with Steve is not easy to maintain... The daily life of a superhero is like an endless task, even after passing one level, there will always be another.
    This story is the third installment in the "Not Just Tony" series, continuing the main plot while featuring independent story units.

    Summary

    It started with the noises. Not the usual groans and sighs of an old house settling, but a soft, skittering rustle from under the floorboards of the kitchen. I wrote it off as a possum or a particularly ambitious squirrel in the crawlspace. I meant to call an exterminator, but life, as it does, got in the way.

    Then, the crosswords began to change.

    One Tuesday, I was stuck on a seven-letter word for “celestial body.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _. I had ‘P-L-A-N-E-T’ but it didn't fit. Annoyed, I gave up and tossed the paper.

    The next morning, retrieving a crumpled bill I’d accidentally thrown away, I saw it. The paper was on top of the bin. Someone had filled in the empty squares. In a faint, silvery ink that seemed to shimmer under the fluorescent kitchen light, was the word: “QUASAR.” 

     

    or

     

    An alien who has been sent to scout Earth has learned English purely via daily completed crossword puzzles found in the trash of the house they are living in the crawlspace of.

    Summary

    25-year-old Grace Avery is a stunning woman working as a detective/investigator. Due to her looks, she often gets sexist remarks from her colleagues, seen only as an object of praise and beauty rather than a fellow detective. Annoyed and frustrated, she goes to an old friend for help and assistance, asking for a partner who doesn't care about her looks and has the brains to work with her, to which she learns that there is a person who could help her, the problem lays in the fact that, that person is the very same man who Grace knew and hated in high school, Basil M. House. Will Grace continue to hate his guts? Is Basil the same man whom Grace knew in High school? And will their relationship change?

    This is a reimagining of Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Besides being a reimagining, it's also a composite of different mystery stories and movies that I loved, so don't be surprised if some of the cases or puzzles look familiar. Apologies for the grammar mistakes:( Really enjoyed writing this:)

    Summary

    “As for your earlier question. You’re a pureblood—”
    “Yes, so you’ve said.”
    Regulus scowls. “Don’t interrupt me. Apart from that, you’re also healthy, athletic, and magically gifted. These are all the genetic qualities I’m looking for in the father of my child.”
    “I also have all of my teeth and no cavities if you want to check,” James scoffs.
    “What? Why would I want to check that?”
    “Isn’t that what you do with a breeding stud?”

    ***

    To exact vengeance on his parents, Regulus decides to conceive a child with James Potter. It’s a brilliant plan that’s bound to succeed; surely, nothing can possibly go wrong there except for one thing. Regulus doesn’t count on gaining a co-parent with benefits. Or falling in love.

    Summary

    This isn't the first time Black Mesa has caused problems, and it certainly won't be the last. The difference this time is that Aperture has to deal with that mess.

    GLaDOS had a good feeling about her particular test subject, minus the whole not-talking thing. She was good with portals.
    Dottore had a good feeling about his particular test subject. She was smart enough on her feet, and resilient too.

    At Black Mesa, a crystal of unknown origins triggers a "resonance cascade", tearing a hole through the space dividing the two worlds. Black Mesa so chivalrously dumps this crystal- and whatever comes out of it- on GLaDOS to deal with. Dottore is just as curious as she is- willing to put his former plans on pause, even.

     

    If the tags scare you, don't worry, Dottore ends up with no one. :-)
