    Summary

    The second War for the Dawn is lost before it has even begun. With a little help from the Old Gods, Bran sends the last surviving Starks somewhere they can make a difference: back in time. Alone in an unfamiliar place, scattered and separated from each other, they must save the dragons and their house from death and madness. The survival of all humanity depends upon it.

    Alternatively: Jon discovers just how messy that side of the family can get, Arya is forced to concede that some problems can't be solved by sticking them with the pointy end, and Sansa finally gets to play the game of thrones. This time around, it is a woman they will call Kingmaker.

    (Or: What if all Alicent Hightower needed was a friend like Sansa Stark?)

    Summary

    Melisandre, her father’s priestess, had once tried to teach her that she should be afraid of the darkness. That it was something that ought to be fought and kept away at all costs. It was the Great Other, she’d whisper, but never quite explained what this Great Other then was. Therefore, all those hushed conversations and veiled threats did very little to impress Shireen.
    The Red Priestess, however, had not failed to instill fear into her. Not of the dark, or of this nameless, voiceless God, but of a simple wooden pole placed on a small stage.

    Summary

    Ned speaks the sacred words of House Bolton, and tells the boy of what his bastard brother would have done. Tells the boy of the wars to come, and that he has sought House Bolton’s aid in the coming conflict. Tells the boy what he and his father have plotted, to ensure that future never comes to pass.

    (In which Eddard Stark receives a vision, and promptly yeets his backyard sociopath at the political nightmare that is King's Landing so he can deal with magic zombies in peace. This mostly works, except where it doesn't.)

    Summary

    Hawks downs half a beer and two fingers of whisky before he feels loose enough to try and explain. "This is going to sound dumb," he warns, already slurring a little. Seriously, this is so stupid. He shouldn't be getting drunk in front of a villain, not even a villain as naive as Spinner—but maybe a part of him wants to get it off his chest.

    Spinner shakes his head. "It won't sound dumb. I promise."

    "Okay," Hawks says, hedging. "Okay so—we—" God, why is this so hard? "Me and Dabi, I mean. We—almost boned."

    Spinner gasps, horrified. "You did what?"

    After falling out with Dabi, Hawks gets himself a new League contact.

    Summary

    Tenya can remember when Present Mic came out as bisexual on his radio show a few years back - the backlash was immediate. News outlets all over the place complaining about how Present Mic’s radio show was supposed to be for all ages, including kids, but he was bringing up an adult topic like this? And hadn’t he recently been hired as a UA teacher? Was he really someone they wanted their future heroes learning from?

    And sure, it's been a few years since then and the whole thing ultimately blew over without Present Mic ever taking that much of a hit to his ratings, and Tenya knows his parents and his friends wouldn't care necessarily, but it's still frightening to imagine being the center of that kind of media attention. Terrifying to think that the secret that could end his career before it's even started is that he's in love with a boy, not that he once tried to murder a man.

    A story in which Iida Tenya deals with dating Bakugo Katsuki, juggling two separate friend groups, a teacher that knows him far too well, someone he loves getting horribly injured again, and the prospect of admitting he's gay. Somehow, dating Bakugo is the easy part.
