  1. Summary

    Finney Blake = Steve Harrington, but I start with pre-ST canon events to properly weave in how Finn took over the character 'Steve'. And I don't follow canon all too closely, allowing Finn's presence in the story to alter everything as it wants to change.

  5. Summary

    Larger Universe series, essentially. The Ni Series is one of many that will be connected together in this Alternate Universe of mine. It will involve the many stories I will write about the Bens of different universes like Mad Ben, Bad Ben, Ben 23, and No Watch Ben (and others) that will fit with the changes done to the Main Story told in the Ni Series.

    Summary

    The arrival at Erid is a momentous occasion. Rocky is excited and thrilled. Ryland is overwhelmed. But the reunion is happy, beautiful, amazing.

    Or that's what it should have been. Except Rocky gets hurt, Ryland is left to try and communicate with an alien planet, and everyone is scrambling to figure out how to do this. To Grace, this is incredible but also bittersweet - he got Rocky home safely with the taumoeba, now he just gets... to starve. To Erid, this is insane - how did Rocky show up in an alien spaceship with a child???

    ...

    Ryland Grace is stuck trying to speak Eridian, immediately makes himself sound like a child, and Rocky's world and family scramble to help this strange pebble. Misunderstandings galore, alongside hurt/comfort and angst and fluff.

    Summary

    The hologram flickers again, and then they’re looking at Master Plo.

    “Skywalker,” he greets, inclining his head politely, “I hope I’m not interrupting anything important, but a rather strange young man asked me to pass a message on for you. He was quite insistent I do it as soon as possible. The message is this: Ekkreth needs to speak with you.”

    After the Battle of Endor, Luke finds himself swept through a sandstorm into the past before the Republic and his father fell.

    (Back in their original timeline, Leia isn't about to give up on her brother that easily.)

    Summary

    No one knew how Tony Stark escaped from Afghanistan. No one connected the mysterious vigilante “Iron Man” to the CEO of the very weapons he destroyed.

    At a UNESCO conference Ryland Grace tried to change the world. At that same conference he did nothing except change his own.

    Everyone else saw a disgraced scientist. Tony saw exactly what he needed.

    Or:

    An AU where Tony was at Grace’s career-ending conference and, instead of shunning him like everyone else, Tony offered him a job.

    Summary

    "Hello. Sol-system three-world Grace hello ♬Ren plural.”

    A formal greeting? Finally. This was exactly what Myrta was there for. The diplomacy thrum had carefully deliberated the essential values that would best serve eridian-kind to be communicated first to their alien visitor. Displaying their crest and finding the most dignified stance they could manage in the somewhat cumbersome suit, they pulled artificially circulated ammonia through their vents, and-

    “You’re very large.” Theodor blurted out.
