It all started with a smell. That had been what made Shikamaru take notice of Naruto. Some things about the 'boy' just didn't add up and the more Shikamaru thought about it the more he began to wonder what Naruto wasn't telling people, and, if Shikamaru was correct, why was Naruto hiding it in the first place? The genius just hoped he was right otherwise things could get awkward!

A place for odd story bits that drip out of my brain.

Work in progress. "Search for the value of that which you seek, for alchemy already knows." Alchemy knew what Ed wanted when his fingertips touched that circle, but Ed did not yet understand how value differs from price, how equivalent differs from equal. The Gate calculates with one small difference, and Trisha Elric lives - but the cost may be too high for Ed to afford.

AH Rated M for language, some lemons (maybe), and other stuff. BxE

Sasuke Uchiha could never quite understand how a boy two years his junior somehow managed to get into the academy and remain there despite dead-last status. Suffice to say, he's in for quite a shock when said little boy hands him his ass. And that, as they say, is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Annabeth couldn't believe it. She'd just gotten Percy back from the Romans and now some creepy dudes in white coats show up and take him! Percy, on the other hand, was confused. He'd woken up in a strange place, with strange kids, and strange feathery things growing out of his back. Why wasn't he at Camp Half-Blood?

Kakashi thought he had the perfect mission to bring his team closer together. But instead it threw not only what he knew out the window, but also brought the foundations of Sasuke's life to breaking point as secrets are revealed, and new information is uncovered about what really happened the night of the Uchiha massacre.

Just a bunch of one-shots on what would happen when other characters meet Percabeth.

Being ignored and gazed at with hatred can lead someone to become a boisterous and loud orange-wearing shinobi, but it can also drive him to become a silent and invisible introvert. Of the two, Naruto takes the logical choice for a future in the Ninja World. Team Sai-Naruto-Sakura. No pairings. Future of bloodshed and grittiness assured.

SHIELD wasn't sure this boy was a threat. But Robin was pretty darn sure that SHIELD was a threat. Waking up strapped to a medical table was not a sign of friendship. And now that he's escaped, SHIELD will do anything to find him and bring him back. That is, unless Tony Stark has anything to say about it.

SHIELD has plenty of reports on Spider-man, but they're all observation. Now, they want the real facts, so they need to ask the people who know him best. His team should fill that role - or at least, you'd think so,
