Summary
This wasn't his intention when he started this new life. He was going to let everything pass him by and live in peace. Curse his bleeding heart. He cared about people, though he never knew why. He was one of the smartest men in the world, and he still cared about people. Westeros is full of imbeciles, it's time an engineer let his light shine. Or; How an Engineer saved the world.

Academic Excerpts and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being Studied by Scholars Who Make It Their Full Time Job by Vinces
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
13 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
Zuko and Aang conspired early to keep the Firelord’s identity as the Blue Spirit a secret. Zuko unmasked would only make his spot on the Dragon Throne more tenuous during a time of upheaval in the post-war Fire Nation.
Nevertheless, the post-war academics are on it. Who was the Blue Spirit?
Aang and Zuko try their best to play it cool.
Aang’s pretty successful…
Zuko? Well, he’s trying his best.
--
Or where two-thirds of the story is historical “articles” set in and referencing the world of Avatar and one third is Zuko (and Aang) navigating a world where there are academic papers speculating about the prison breakout they did together.- Language:

Summary
Edward Elric is about eleven when he stands up, makes an extended effort to knock as many books off the old bastard’s shelves as he can, and says, “Fuck the military. Al, you interested in music at all?”
Everybody's got their own ideas of retirement.
The Elrics don't even do retirement, what with the world trying to blow itself up every other month, but this shit has got to take the fucking cake.

Summary
There was so much more he wanted than this dump of a district, with its dingy buildings and muddy ground and this girl with glimmering eyes that watched him.
A tale of love among a pair of refugees. A lesson of learning the trauma that lies at the core of who you are. A story of Zuko, the exiled prince of the Fire Nation, and the girl in the tea shop that taught him that maybe he could be more than that. Maybe he could be happy.

Summary
"No. We were brought here for a reason, Sammy." He grinned at her, a flash of white teeth. "We're here to wreak havoc."
Sam was not on board with that idea. Absolutely not. They weren't here to exploit this new world. They weren't going to mess with the story just because they could. And she wasn't grinning right back at him.
No.
Of course not.
They were here to make things better. They were here with the foreknowledge of what would happen so they could help people. She wasn't thinking about how much chaos they could create, or how someone like Jim being Harry Potter was going to destroy the entire plot. And she definitely wasn't thinking about the damage they could do to just about everything with magic at their disposal.
She wasn't.
"You're right," Sam leaned across the table so they were inches apart as she whispered, "Let's fuck shit up."

Two War Heroes and a Fellow Ex-Refugee Walk into a Tea Shop by roseverdict

Summary
“Yeah, apparently the new Fire Lord is coming to visit. Something about making reparations?” Jin explained, taking a seat at a nearby table. “I mean, good for him, it’s nice to know somebody in the Fire Nation’s royal family isn’t a royal jerkwad in need of a psychiatrist, but I doubt he’ll wanna get mobbed by that crowd.”
Mushi smiled in that knowing way he tended to and turned back to the décor. “Not just the Fire Lord, but my nephew as well.”
Jin lit up. “Li’s coming, too?”
At that, Mushi’s knowing smile turned mischievous for a split second before he nodded. “Yes, he is. He’s been back at home now that the war is over, but I managed to convince him to take a break and come visit his uncle’s tea shop for the grand re-opening.”
“Still a workaholic, huh? That’s Li, alright,” Jin declared.
(Or, in which Jin realizes that the awkward refugee she dated once has become the Fire Lord, and she just can't muster up any proper respect for the office. Everyone is okay with this.)

Summary
Killing Batman is all but impossible as he is now. Killing Batman before he becomes Batman, while slightly easier, still seems doomed to failure. You can't stop Batman by causing more tragedy.
. . . But maybe by stopping a tragedy, you can stop Batman from being conceived in the first place.
That's the theory anyway.

“I know what it is like, Ahsoka.” Obi-Wan tells her. “I know what it is to leave the Jedi with nothing more than the clothes on your back and the knowledge that you are doing the right thing.”
Or: Ahsoka Tano flees after a warrant for her arrest is issued, but not before receiving aid from an unexpected ally. (Ahsoka proceeds to go on a road trip filled with a bunch of strangers who all say the same thing: Obi-Wan Kenobi is much more than he has ever appeared to be.)
