    One of the earliest fics I remember enjoying.
    Due for a reread.

    Summary

    After centuries of turmoil, Humanity has expanded to the stars, just as the Incubators promised. The half-AI Government of Earth is determined to turn the planet into its vision of utopia, but the shadows of utopia hide many secrets. When an alien threat the Incubators failed to mention threatens the peace, one of those secrets steps out into the light.

    In the midst of it all, an ordinary girl looks to the sky, wondering at her place in the universe.

    The most intricate world building I have ever seen, in both fanfiction and published work.
    This is a treasure for people who have a taste for hard sci-fi.

    Summary

    Josie laughs in a short, sad kind of way. “In all the ways I might tick a box of his, you completely overwhelm it. He’d have been filled with joy just at the idea of you loving him. I will never have that effect.”

    Hope shakes her head. “Well I don’t understand that.” Their bodies are pressed close in the cold, noses almost brushing. “Because everything about you is overwhelming.”

    / /

    Hope is desperate to regain Josie's trust after she and Landon collectively break her heart. But things become complicated as the three navigate their feelings under the growing threats within the school.

    A brilliant story that doesn’t fall into the usual traps of this fandom (excessive Landon bashing).
    The world building and character development are top notch and I can’t wait for a new chapter to come out every time.

    As a side note, I wish the character development in the show was half as good...

    Summary

    When two individuals explode out of the heart tree at Winterfell, the Bolton's think it's a blessing from the gods. It certainly is a change in their fortunes. Sansa expected to die the day the Bolton's did after their guest made the ground shake with her fury. Only she didn't, and now she is nominally the one in charge. With no army, no support outside of those men who saw an angry god and decided not to help their liege Lord, and said god is now her terrifying guest.

    Daisy would like to stop being mistaken for a god, and also reiterate flaying innocent people alive is not an acceptable practice. It would help if Fitz would wake up already because she's clearly not going to be able to get them out of the medieval hellscape they're now trapped in. Although Fitz wouldn't be her first choice of companion to be stranded with. And magic ice zombies, because of course there's magic ice zombies.

    Not usually a fan of crossovers, but this one is really really good. Who knew agents of shield and game of thrones could be combined so seamlessly.
