Summary
After Sansa's father is beheaded for treason, Sansa becomes little more than a hostage in King's Landing. Beaten by the Kingsguard and tormented by her former betrothed, all she has to look forward to is a marriage to a Lannister, because she is too important for Tywin Lannister to trust with anyone but kin. But in the chaos of the Bread Riots, Sandor Clegane spirits her out of King's Landing and all the way to her brother Robb's army. It is there that she finds Jaime Lannister, another hostage. No rescue comes for him, not until Sansa convinces Robb that it is in his best interests to marry his sister to the future Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West.

Summary
As a final stand in a war they never stood a chance of winning, Uzumaki Naruto chooses to use a forbidden blood seal to rip through the fabric of space and time itself rather than admit defeat. He has never been good at accepting his fate, and if bending reality with his own two hands is what it takes, then that’s just what Naruto will do.
The rest of the world is just going to have to suck it up and deal with it.
[OR]
“A time travel seal,” Sakura says numbly, staring at him with wide eyes and a slack jaw once she finally comprehends the excited tirade he has just finished throwing at her.
“A time travel seal,” Naruto confirms, grinning with a mouth full of teeth, eyes manic.
Sasuke sighs, immediately giving up on trying to make sense of anything that comes out of Naruto’s mouth. “Of-fucking-course.”

Spoiler!
I liked this, but when Dumbledore cast his spell, I immediately felt entrapped in the story itself. That is definitely my point of no return.
Well done!

Summary
Harry Potter wasn't the first person entered into the Triwizard Tournament against his will. In fact, it's happened enough that there are rules in place to discourage such a thing. When Harry finds out that the binding magical contract spoken of so severely isn't actually binding him at all, but rather his mysterious cosigner, he decides to forego participation completely. But more than that, the attitudes displayed by his fellow students, the faculty, and even Albus Dumbledore himself leave him wondering if anyone he knows actually has his best interests at heart.
Together with Hermione Granger (with whom he's recently rekindled an estranged friendship) and the tiny aid of an enterprising first-year named Mafalda, Harry's going to do what he does best. Frustrate and enrage a whole lot of people.
