Summary
"Dr. Holt?"
Pidge made a vague gesture with her hand, "Yeah, Dr. Holt. Dr. Katie Holt, head of the development and research department at Garrison, Quartermaster of the Atlas and thorn in the side of an idiot who believes he is the Chosen One and can do whatever the hell he wants."
"You are... Are you me? How is that possible?"she heard all the skepticism in the voice of her fifteen-year-old version, and a dose of healthy distrust. It was nice to see that she had never been stupid enough to believe anything without first having evidence available.
Pidge shrugged, "Your guess is as good as mine, mini me. At the moment, time travel seems the most likely hypothesis."
"So those two are..."
"Our replacements, yes," she replied, pointing first to Noelle and then to Rex, "This is our heir, her name is Noelle. The big boy here is Rex."

After a mysterious energy explosion near the Omega Shield, the paladins find themselves with unexpected guests in the castle from another time that need their help getting back home. Things would be easier if they didn't act like they had too much to hide.

Summary
What would you do, if you could change the world? Would it be for the better?
Ashlyn is an absolutely ordinary girl. So normal, she would put YN to shame. So why is she now stuck inside one of her childhood obsessions?
Tossed into the world of Transformers Prime, Ashlyn is faced with a good amount of denial and a decent amount of fear, afterall she’s not supposed to be here. But trying to find your way out of a TV show is extremely difficult when the plot keeps throwing itself at you and even worse when the show's timeline starts to change.
Would you change the world for the better?
Or would you change it for the worst?Series

Summary
Aiz'wa did not anticipate a simple asteroid belt field trip turning into an ambush, or being locked in a cage by traffickers.
But now he has bigger things to worry about. Actually, smaller. Because no matter how small, unintimidating, or dare he say...cute... his new cellmate is, Aiz'wa is about to die.
After all, no one survives a Terran, right?

OR: Ranboo is having a very tough time and meets a human while in a humans are space orcs AU with Tommy as a human who is in spaceThis is an alliumduo fic but Ranboo and Tommy both form bonds with 3/4 SBI + Tubbo.
This is rated Teen for swearing, graphic depictions of violence, death, and other heavy topics such as kidnapping, so please heed the tags (this shouldn't need to be said but there is no sexual or romantic content in this fic).
HORRENDOUSLY SLOW UPDATES.

Summary
Tommy sighs, staring up at alien ceilings, breathing in alien air, probably and unfortunately digesting alien blood. He guesses he’s never breaking that two year Foster house streak. She probably thinks he ran away. He thinks what pisses him off the most. These aliens made him look like he couldn’t handle a measly fucking argument about curfew and ran away. He’s so pissed he could die.
Tommy stares at the unfamiliar planet, millions of miles away behind a glass pane, and still closer to him than home is.
Die.
Huh. With a quick heartbeat, and an impending sense of doom, he thinks: He just might.
Or, Aliens are assholes, and turns out, some of them are even human traffickers. Tommy learns soon enough that he values freedom more than trying to figure out what the fuck had to go wrong in his life to lead to him getting lost in outer-space.
Even more, Tommy learns right thereafter, that he loves Earth a little more than he originally thought.
