    Summary

    Eden has always been Simon's home, until they left him for dead on that station. Sure, they had been harsh sometimes but what was the alternative?

    The Consolidation of Iron? The people who wanted to rip out Eden's tree and take their kids?

    At least Eden was peaceful, at least Eden didn't lie.

    Choking, gagging on his own blood, he realized how much he wished that was true.
    ---
    Eden had long used children for war, they were easy to train, and easier to indoctrinate when they were born and raised in a nursery. Eden was more than fine with the knowledge they were sending kids to die, after all, they all became soil?

    But what COI had laws to stop trials/convictions for minors? How could Eden get around that?

    Simple: If your calendar years are half that of the COI, your 15-year-old becomes 30, and you have “righteous” anger aplenty to point right back at the COI.

    If a few kids have to die to make ends meet? Well, It's just bigger than us.

    (OR I wanted to write a fic where Simon is actually just a really fucking scared and traumatized child, because Mark you hurt me with that ending so name Simon will get hugs.)

    Summary

    The Rebellion is over. Robert Baratheon wears the crown, the dragons are dead, and the realm is at peace, so the songs say.

    When the war for the Iron Throne ends, Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell returns home not as a victor, but as the keeper of a secret that could shatter the realm.

    In the ruins of rebellion, he finds the truth buried with his sister Lyanna: a child born of love, not treason. A boy with the blood of wolves and dragons, destined to unite what centuries of fire and steel have torn apart.

    As the North gathers to hear the truth, old oaths are broken and new loyalties forged. The lords of Winterfell must decide whether to kneel to a drunken southern king, or crown one of their own.

    Amid snow and smoke, oaths and iron, a new kingdom is born.

    And from the ashes of war, rises a Crown of Ice and Fire.

    Summary

    He focuses on her voice over the pain and rapidly dwindling oxygen. It sounds like she’s walking as she speaks—he can hear her footsteps. She says he’s earned his freedom. More than that, he’s a hero. She tells him it’s a good day: for humanity, for him. He wants to believe her.

    The footsteps stop. A moment of silence, and then—“Why isn’t he out yet?”

    OR

    Simon gets the data. True her word, Ava pulls him out. It’s not necessarily over after that.

    Summary

    “Jeez, you really are sick.” Will muttered and Mike choked out a laugh.

    “‘S just my luck.” He murmured, ignoring the way his head spun when he lifted it from the toilet seat.

    Even under the harsh white light of the bathroom, Will still looked good, his honey brown eyes furrowed in concern and lips slightly parted. He was beautiful, and Mike wanted to bite him.

    He recoiled a bit at the thought but now that he had thought it, it wouldn't go away. He could imagine it, digging his teeth into Will’s wrist, blood beading from the teeth marks faster than he could lick it up. The rushing in his ears got louder, twin heartbeats thudding in his ears and Mike turned to heave into the toilet again, not even bothering to stop the sobs that were ripping through him.

    -

    Mike Wheeler has always had shit luck; he just didn't think it was this shit. Something is wrong with him, and it all started when he was attacked by a stray Demo-bat.
