    Most likely the best-written piece of fanfiction I have ever come across; possibly the best long-running piece of literature I have read, bar none. A look into what the ATLA world would be like if it wasn't a children's show and study of the nature of war. One of the best looks into the characterization of the cast of the show, but most specifically Zuko. An incredible study of Sokka's place in a bender-ruled world, as well as a real insight into how a relationship would develop between him and Zuko.

    /“Your blood is my blood,” Zuko said. “There is nothing I won’t do or give to protect her. My honour or my life.”

    Sokka swallowed shakily, his hands coming up to cup Zuko’s cheeks. “Thank you. Thank you.”/

    Summary

    “Cap, when you said you’d sent the Winter Soldier to live on a farm, I genuinely thought you meant you’d had him put down.”

    Bucky growls, low in his throat, and Stark raises his hands. “Hey, c’mon. Easy mistake. Down boy.”

    (A remix of Sirona's The power of the right shirt (a.k.a. God bless America))

    Snapshots of the way it could have been.

    Summary

    A DC universe where moms are awesome and raise their kids right. Now with more melanin and queerness. Also, Gotham's in Michigan and Metropolis is in Connecticut. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Fics are in chronological order but are all standalone.

    The flavor. The panache. The characterization. All perfect, all wonderful, all original. Chefs kiss, 10/10 stars.

    Summary

    Spock and Jim both have their doors. Jim wants his to be open. Spock wants his to be closed.

    An alternative STID thing. With more literature. And esoteric faffing. And sex.

    In which Jim is lucky, Spock is someone's heart's own darling, and somehow they manage to Make It Work despite the rampant miscommunication.

    Summary

    In which Jim finds himself fake-married to his first officer every other month. It's not his fault. Mostly. Dowries and Klingons are involved. Starfleet is decidedly not amused.

    (I will eventually leave an actual review on this fic that isn't just the keyboard smashing I accidentally submitted I pinky promise.) This is one of those fics you go back to read over and over again, and each time it's just as delicious as the last. The back and forth between Spock and Jim is perfect, and the slight tension and build up between them is wonderful. The humor in this fic is top-tier and the plot is gripping despite the simplicity of the set up. Over all, one of the best Spirk fics I've ever read.

    /“Ah, but I already have a husband, Mr. Spock, and he’s the jealous type.”

    “He is not,” Spock sounds pained. “In fact, if I could convince you to transfer your apparent matrimonial zeal to another subject—”

    “Not a chance, I like torturing you too much. Then again, how come you don’t come with a dowry? I keep marrying you yet I get nothing for my trouble.”

    “Another clear indicator that you should desist then.”/
