Summary
Fifteen years ago, to fulfill the dying wish of someone who inspired him, Stephen Strange married Molly Hooper on a whim. And then life happened. A life full of many different things for both of them. But when Molly turns up at the Sanctum Santorum demanding an annulment so she can marry her fiancee, it presents an entire situation where neither of them have any idea how to approach a marriage that they aren't sure they want to end as they get to know each other better.

Summary
In Port Royal, Catherine Swann is expected to be a model of grace and obedience as the governor’s eldest daughter. But beneath the silk and ceremony lies a sharper mind—one that refuses to be ornamental. As she navigates the colony’s tangled social and political spheres, Catherine learns to wield wit and influence like a blade, trading charm for strategy in a world that rarely listens to women—until they leave no choice.

Summary
“What I don’t understand is why she had to die,” he said unthinkingly.
“Ha! You’re getting into it now!”
“If you’re going to insist on watching the damn things ten times a week, I can’t be blamed for noticing bits of them,” he replied sourly, leaning on the countertop. “But they bring him back in the next film, don’t they? Why not her, too?”
“The movie-verse explanation is that she was at peace.”
“Dying for a man who could barely pat her on the head in thanks? Oh, yes, very peaceful. Positively euphoric.”
--
Years ago, I wrote Catch the Wind, a Norrington/Modern!OC fic -- and then a friend floated the idea of an AU where James is the modern one, thrown into the POTC universe, and the OC, Theodora, is the canon movie character fated to die. And I'm powerless to resist suggestions like that. SO, here we have a modified version of POTC where Norrington is not a character in canon events, and THEN a fic within that where he *is* thrown into the story, trying desperately to save the life of the woman he finds himself falling in love with. It's going to be a behemoth, buckle up, maybe read Catch the Wind if you want full context, but it won't be vital!

Summary
Jasper Whitlock is a stalker, one of the people who are compelled, in spite of extreme danger, to venture illegally into the Zone—an area cordoned off by the government to stop the removal of potentially dangerous artifacts left behind by extraterrestrial visitors. His life is a mystery, dominated by the crime and corruption surrounding the place.
For Bella, the Zone is an interesting yet far away concept. This all changes when something goes horribly wrong in Charlie’s job, leaving her to fend for herself. Forced into a precarious situation, she is forced to choose—will she remain aloof to the state her father is in, or will she dare contact Jasper Whitlock and follow him into the Zone?
