    Summary

    Julian’s childhood is a nice one. He’s allowed to do anything — as long as it's out of sight of his father — and there’s books and music and the garden.

    And then he is given away to a witcher.
    ─────────────────
    Or in which Jaskier is a witcher, who returns to the Path after two decades of being just a bard

    Summary

    Rewinding the tape, going back to fix mistakes. It feels easy when you're the Pupil of the Eye and the Harbinger of the Apocalypse, but the Archive is going to find out soon that a human mind and a human body, even his own, cannot host him without consequences.

    So, some changes have to be done, first.

    Jonathan Sims, newly appointed Head Archivist of The Magnus Institute, is about to have a very bad time.

    Illustrated by sevvaddle and DCArtCorner.

    Summary

    I'm sure given your position you already know about the advent of the General Data Protection Regulation next year, wrote Peter Lukas, to Elias Bouchard. However, the Lukas family wishes to be crystal clear that our continued investment is contingent upon the Institute taking its responsibilities with regards to privacy and confidentiality seriously.

    The Magnus Institute hires a Data Protection Officer. He sets about diligently booking in meetings, writing policy documents, and training all the staff in the importance of confidentiality. Now if only he could get hold of the Head Archivist, who seems to have vanished again...

    (Jon is only trying to save the world, but apparently some people think he should still be doing his day job.)

    Summary

    From outside the mountain, there came an ear-splitting roar. Smaug’s head whipped around and all the dwarves froze. A shudder of sheer, unadulterated fear ran through Thorin’s body and locked his limbs mid-motion.

    Another dragon had come to Erebor.

    Summary

    The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.

    Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?

     

    Or,

     

    In which Tony does not, in fact, intend to take over the world.

    ...unfortunately, everyone else missed that particular memo.

     

    [gradual divergence from canon, starting at the end of Iron Man 3. In which it's Tony's self-awareness, rather than his support system, that becomes a cryptid sometime during Phase II.]
