Death, My Friend by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

I inherited the Invisibility Cloak. I was tricked into accepting the Resurrection Stone. I won the allegiance of the Elder Wand. I, consequently, do not age even a day, frozen as a seventeen-year-old scrawny thing. Just because of three measly trinkets falling into my hand. I hate it all.

Runaway by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled Series* – Loki had not meant to let a band of cocksure Asgardians loose in a hostile land of hostile giant brutes.

Capcicle, in another way. – Steven Grant Rogers didn't get entombed in ice when the plane he fought Red Skull in crashed into the sea.

Captive by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled Series* – For all the wild, horrible things Loki could think up as the outcome of Thor's latest mad scheme, being captured by slavers is somehow unthinkable.

The Value of Me by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

A blank-slated man with assassination skills, a blank-slated boy with domestic ones, a no-self woman with neither past nor future, a circus little sharp-eyed monkey, a filthy-rich orphan brat, an overrated-but-underestimated superhero… What do they have in common? For that matter, can tools of war and/or villainy be more than they are meant to be?
Tony chooses to think differently, see the little details, in the aftermath of the Battle of New York. The arc reactor in his chest is failing for the second time, at that.

Daughter by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

And days before Thor's coronation as king, Loki flees Asgard's palpable disappointment of the future king's closest advisor being an argr. And then… well….

Child by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Freedom by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

In the middle of 1995, the life of one Harry James Potter officially ends. In the middle of 1996, the survival of the forgotten teenage Azkaban prisoner in cell number 13 is ultimately terminated. In the middle of 1997, the title of heir to the throne of an alien realm is officially taken by a tiny, semi-amnesiac child. – It all means change. It all means freedom. But for whom?

Brick by Brick by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Beneath the Cracked Ice by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Something goes wronger when Thor confronts Laufey in Jötunheim. It leads to the discovery of many, many wrong things, as well as many, many right ones, not to mention all the added dirt and gold and those in between.
Or "The 12 Days of Winter." – Tony Stark's wardrobe somehow produces wintry wind. So what does he do? Well, take a look, of course. Nobody can blame him for being not curious enough.

The construction workers find a mysterious package when reconstructing Tony's penthouse post-Battle of New York.

Now it enters reality, and all these jigsaw puzzle pieces hinting at it, at home, form… well…. Okaaay…. "Harry Potter" has never been normal in his life, anyway.

The Jeep Driver by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled series* – Just after visiting his SHIELD-incarcerated brother on Midgard, the newly appointed Regent King Loki literally stumbles on a huge, old jeep, warn and dusty but well cared for.

Fire and Ice by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled Series* – The Warriors Three accidentally offended a very, very important person on Musplheim, the realm of the so-called fire demons.

Forgotten by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

A routine visit to his parents at St. Mungo's yields something unpleasantly non-routine for one Neville Longbottom.

Words by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled Series* – Words can tell so much. Variations of words, even more. But still, there are things that cannot be expressed well or sincerely through mere words. Loki is learning it now; from a frost giant, at that.

Proof by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Mother? by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

*Caught Is Caught Is Cuddled Series* – A pair of mortal enemies are stranded in a cave after battle. And then one of them says, "Little one, I bore you. I can put you back in here, if you keep chattering." – Loki is certainly never prepared for that. Not even when it is being spoken, or afterwards, or long, long afterwards. – *AU of the end of the jötunheim scene in Thor 1*
What defines "family"? What defines "friend"? What defines "enemy"? – Words are just that, words, and yet people still strive to put meanings to the meaningless, emotions to the emotionless, and action to the actionless.

Snowling by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Permutations by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Of scenarios and plots in which Harry Potter, or the boy that should be Harry Potter, or the man that used to be Harry Potter, got adopted into the group that is named the Avengers, or should be named the Avengers, or denies to be named the Avengers, or at least by one of the members of the Avengers, or soon to be the Avengers, or should have been the Avengers… at first… initially…
Tony Stark is a sciency guy. His lines are absolutes, wherever those lines are placed and whatever they are. Contrary to popular believe, though, Tony is a family guy, too. And nobody hurts his family without severe consequences. People label him the Merchant of Death. They are not wholely wrong. (A two-shot of Tony's brand of love & care the origin of the name "the Avengers.")

Succour by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Lily leaves an ancient protection on her dear son, literally so. But with that, Harry stands to gain more than mere protection. After all, there is little to none that a loving mother will not do, be she mortal or god-like.

Wormie the Prince by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Luke Skywalker, Janek Sunber: Each is not what the other expects, to say the least. And then more elements are thrown into this silly, alarming, intriguing-as-a-train-wreck mixture… It's just Janek's luck that Wormie Skywalker now has a fearsome back-up.

Déjà Vu by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Black hair, black eyes, a childish face, a childish voice – why is it all familiar?

(AU Book-verse, AU Rey-verse.) Murtagh was saved from the Twins before his hell-on-earth ever began, but by whom and for what purpose? Nobody would guess…

The Other Side of the Coin by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

He had tried his best; but still, it didn't seem to be enough for her, though maybe not by her will. She had lived only for that ungrateful Jedi son, and even died for him. Despite everything, however, Shmi Skywalker still received a high place in Owen Lars' heart, high enough for each memory to bleed...

Teach Me to Live by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

The Slave Boy by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

He is just a boy, a little nameless one at that. He is just a slave, a most unattractive one at that. But he has a big heart, an extraordinary one at that, and many other unseen weapons to boot. So the question is: Which will win over him, along the bitter path chosen for him by all too many? And when they all find out… *Borderline crossover with Inheritance Cycle.p

Invisible, Part 1 by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

"Can't you see that? Can't you see them?" he asks, demands, says, pleads plaintively. But the little one learns quick, and learns not to utter those words when condescending people are around. He seeks and befriends them instead: the Invisible, those who lurk on the edges of history and behind the scenes of great things. And who knows, maybe the Invisible could do the Impossible?

Campaign of Advertisement by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Who is he, in truth? We know only the outside, the surface, the tales, warped by retelling and point of view and other biases. But we do know that nobody is truly evil or truly good in this world . . . do we not? So have a peek inside and see who he is, and who he might have been, all canon truths picked out from the haystack of words that is The Inheritance Cycle!

When the Sun Rises by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Camp NaNoWriMo project, July 2013: Evandar, the King of the Elves, is portrayed as "stern and proud" and silver-haired in the Cycle. But was he always like that? What could be the beginning that saw to the making of the King that we glimpse in the series? I assure you, it was truly unexpected.

Innocence by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

A first-person journey spanning Eragon to Inheritance and beyond: Murtagh was a big brother for that wide-eyed, brown-eyed boy before it was ever a fact, and he was determined to conduct that self-appointed duty well by any means in spite of (or perhaps because of) what fate had thrown his way. But Eragon was never the easiest little brother to care for and take care of, indeed!

Poisoned Truths: Book 2 by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

For NaNo Camp April 2013: Book 2 of 7: How to hide a big secret from he who can detect even the smallest? Why torture and assassinate when clean death can achieve the same?

And Morzan's answer is … unexpected.

Poisoned Truths: Book 1 by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

For NaNo Camp April 2013: Book 1 of 7: Before Murtagh, before even Selena, whom would Morzan go to great lengths to hide – to protect? And why? But then again, all humans have roots somewhere, be they grand or humble, rich or poor – and a rejected orphan would prize what any other children would likely take for granted, regardless of anything, defying even age and war alignments.

With Every Inhale of Breath by Virodeil Stale Result (Last seen: )

Inspired by the "Smells" Bingo card used in B2MeM 2012. In 24 pieces or more, a character study of Morzan according to the "smell" given for that particular piece. *Warning: Rey-verse* Smell 1: Pine Trees: Morzan adored those "pine-like" people and they loved him back.
For B2MeM 2012 Days 10, 13, 14, 17 and 28. Sometimes the dream that comes true is more horrifying than the dream itself, and living the said dream is even worse. But perhaps, there will still be a silver-lining even in the worst situation?
For B2MeM 2012 Day 17. How if Melkor got another undesired visitor aside from Beren and Luthien? How if the strange "creature" was even more undesirable than the former lord of Dorthonion and the daughter of pitiful Melyanna?

For B2MeM 2012 Day 11. They had done their task to the best of their abilities, and it was probably the end now. Not a happy ending, yes, but happy endings were only for stories anyway. Besides, there was the second – final – destination to hope for.
