    Summary

    Matt hears a lot in the city at night, sirens and crime--and the late-night radio show Foggy With a Chance, which sometimes runs a Daredevil Watch if he's been particularly active, but which mostly plays music. He probably shouldn't call in and request a song, but he does it anyway.

    Summary

    Harry Potter has honestly enjoyed his four years as a Gryffindor. He loves the friends, the camaraderie, the cozy feeling of Gryffindor Tower – oh, and getting to be the Boy-who-Lived, wizarding superstar, isn't bad either. The House of Lions helped him to become the friendly, warm, fun-loving kid he is today – and set aside his past as the terror of Little Whinging Primary, the cold, angry boy who hurt Muggles with magic.

    But it's not that simple. He hates being in danger every year. He hates the way he underperforms in classes. He can't quite let go of the manipulative ways of his childhood, still lurking beneath the surface. And after watching Lord Voldemort murder Cedric Diggory, he's absolutely petrified. He wants out. He wants to stop being Harry Potter.

    When the wards protecting Harry fail, Professor Dumbledore offers him the chance to go into hiding: to adopt a new name and a new face, placed with the family of an Order member so he can return to Hogwarts incognito. Harry accepts, and lets his childhood self come rushing back in the persona of the cunning, dark, and ever so Slytherin Miss Iolanthe Snape.

    She finds it all too easy to change. The question is, will she ever want to change back?

    Summary

    "Sorry, May, we can't all be best friends with a celebrity.”

    May opens her mouth to retort reflexively, the words 'we aren’t even friends' on the tip of her tongue before she closes her mouth. Because they are friends, now. They’re way past that point.

    Oh my god, she thinks somewhat hysterically. Tony Stark is my best friend.

    (or; Tony Stark, May Parker, and the road to something like friendship)

    Summary

    While on a mission storming a HYDRA facility, James Buchanan Barnes touches one of the many strange alien devices collected by the Red Skull. He does this, in fact, twice— in the past, and in the future.

    Next thing he knows, Bucky Barnes is opening his eyes in the 21st century, which is full of great gadgets and coffee, and at least includes his old pal Steve. (And, inexplicably, a different Stark.) Meanwhile, the Winter Soldier finds himself in the middle of World War Two, helping Captain America hunt down HYDRA (which is at least familiar), pretending to be Bucky Barnes (which is not), and figuring out the very noisy group of soldiers who call themselves the Howling Commandos.
