    Summary

    It goes like this: Criston has lived for twenty-two years until he remembers a life before this one. He is kneeling before King Viserys Targaryen, the First of His Name, and his wife and daughter, the blood roaring in his ears as his limbs shake with pain and exhaustion. A distance away, Prince Daemon, the king’s brother, glares at him, nursing his wounds. His morningstar lies off to the side, discarded in favor of the crown of laurels he cradles in his hands.

     

    or

    A young man, reincarnated as Criston Cole, remembers his past life, and Rhaenyra Targaryen is forever changed for it. For better or for worse, Westeros is set on a different path.

    Summary

    Jaime ran through the halls of Casterly Rock, ducking and weaving deftly between servants and distant relatives, only stopping to help right the poor maid who nearly got knocked over by him before he was off again in the direction of his father’s solar.

    Seven years he has lived in this life, a world so familiar and so foreign, and he’s made it his own. He knows the story, and he knows what will happen, but there are a few things that he can try to change.

    Like this.

    AKA

    A self-insert into Jaime Lannister, except this is a normal guy who doesn't know how a printing press works and just wants to raise kittens and play with a sword

    Summary

    Percy knew he was in over his head even before a group of men, dressed like they were going to win an ancient Greek costume competition, stepped into the cave.
    _______________________________
    When Percy was knocked out on Polyphemus' Island while trying to save his friends, he had no idea that waking up in ancient Greece was an outcome he had to prepare for.
    But here he was, sailing across an unknown sea with a very well known ancient hero, reenacting the Odyssey (of which he knew far to little) and trying not to die. Fun times.
    Meeting the gods (who were wilder, younger and way more vengeful) while attempting to not mess up the future was just the top of the metaphorical iceberg.

    The only good thing? Dreaming about a rather cute boy who always made him smile...

    Summary

    Modern/Reincarnation AU
    ---------

    Shen Quinqui had always felt he was destined to be alone.

    Left for dead as an infant, unwanted. Abandoned by the one person he devoted himself to and considered family only for said family to die trying to save his miserable self. Never finding a place in his sect and subject to unfounded rumors. Accidentally killing his shidi while trying to save him, despite their hate-fulled rivalry. Misunderstood by his marital family and those around him. Unable to open up for fear of rejection. Envious and jealous of the good fortune of those around him.

    Tortured for decades by the disciple he ignored and kind of abused, he was left suffering while so many cheered for his demise.

    Death had come as a relief.

    So why was he awake in this strange new world filled with new technology and strange slang. Why did his second chance seem like a horrible repeat of his life?

    And why were the others popping up with memories of their past?

    Summary

    Luke Castellan had lived once before. Back then, he was a she, and she’d read a certain book series where gods were real and monsters ran wild.

    It was a fun read.

    Living it? Not so much. Especially as the villain.

    No problem, though. Luke had a plan: don’t act like book!Luke. Free will, right? Easy.

    …Except Fate, when it’s an actual entity, doesn’t like being ignored.

    (Note: Roman gods ≠ Greek gods.)
