Ian Rider is not a family man. Nor one of sentimentality. But when John and Helen die, he is forced to take custody of his last living blood relative-his niece, Sasha. He doesn't have many soft spots, but one of them is her. Determined to shield her from the dangerous world of espionage by training her, will he turn her into the very thing he swore he would protect her from? AU.

After a Scorpia threat is made, Alex is sent back to Brecon Beacons. To his old unit. Could things get any worse?

Snowball Effect: A situation in which something increases in size or importance at a faster rate. It started with finding Ian and Jack doing some very questionable acts and ended up with Alex in the hospital. AU. OOC. FAMILY. ONE-SHOT FOR NOW.

Alex Rider watches the Stormbreaker film with me. He is not pleased. (Phyll-and-doll already did a criticism of the film. This criticism will have the tone of Cinema Sins and much of what phyll-and-doll commented will be what I criticize, but with Alex). If you don't like people's opinions and general pissiness, this isn't for you. Alex will be answering questions and comments.

Alex wakes up in a cell with only the clothes on his back, a broken arm and a girl named Sarah. He has no recollection of how he got there or why he's there."The Surgeon" is his only clue to what's going on. And The Surgeon has anything but good intents for him. Alex is a subject of fascination to him; a freak of nature. And he will go very far to see what makes Alex so special...

First one shot of what I now call the "Knowing Better" series. You know, that one where Alex meets his other half, Vict and they live happily ever after...yeah, right. So, I promised some one shots before the third installment of the series and here they are! I strongly recommend you read "Should've Known Better" and "Does he Know Better?" before, or this won't make much sense.

Sequel to "Should've known better"! How did Alex move on from the events of the previous story? Has he actually moved on? Step inside to see how Alex tries to maintain the balance between belonging to a new family, starting college and not letting the events of his recent past mess with his present and, more importantly, his future.

Summary: Alan Blunt is dead. The real question is: Who did it? And why? Written for Big Bang (a few months late). No romance!

Alex is abducted by a woman with a grudge, and K-Unit are sent on a mission to rescue him. For SpyFest 2019 July Fic Exchange.

You're Alex Rider, and you don't want to be mature, not really. You want to live in a world where you're just some dumb teenage kid with normal dumb teenage problems, where the very idea of MI6 is just a plot point in some superspy thriller movie and you never need to seriously think about people trying to kill you ever again. (for the 2019 Spyfest fic exchange)

Sequel to 'Reckless'. After Alex's stunt in Israel, R-Unit decide they need team bonding time, and Alex decides they need Disney. For SpyFest 2019, Week Four.

Or sometimes the reasons behind seemingly pointless tasks are a bit different that one would imagine. Written for Spyfest 2019 FicExchange

Pets. Alex decides to get pets. But what happens when he goes out of town? For SpyFest Week 4 Fic Exchange.

Spyfest Fic-Exchange. "I have a confession to make," Nile said after an hour of silence, "I'm not good at...this.""You mean the infiltration thing, or the social interaction?" "No, the… keeping things alive... thing. Normally I just kill a target and that's that. Keeping them alive is so hard." "Oh, tell me about it," Alex agreed, "being locked in a greenhouse with you sucks."

Written for Spyfest 2019 Fic Exchange. Prompt (shortened, full inside): Basically, I want Alex and someone (Yassen, Clone, whoever) tied back to back, chair to chair, or both sharing a support beam in Emperors New Groove style, casually bonding over being captured. Or, Alex and Gordon are tied together in a cell. No Slash! Mild Swearing and blood.

What would have happened if Blunt no longer trusted ASH after his injury in Malta? What would have happened if he told John of his concerns and made him investigate ASH? This is the consequent fallout of those questions, but where will it lead?

Ian and Yassen are alive, John and Helen are too and Alex must force three adults with dark and bloody histories with one another to work together in order to save an important life. The future of the Western World hangs in the balance.

Yassen-centric: in which a powerful businessman, in order to avoid paying Yassen the fee for his services, has his brother go after Yassen, who is just as, if not more skilled than Yassen. [Fic-Exchange for SpyFest 2019]

Or Alex experiencing a well-known phrase understood a lot more literally than it's a norm. Written for Spyfest 2019 week 4

It started with Alex Rider's disappearance. It continued when unassuming SAS soldier, Lynx, surfaced. It ended with a mission and the downfall of an espionage empire. (AWOL rewrite)

Walking into a trap was even worse than being bait, but Alex did it anyway. AKA the one in which Alex and Yassen have a lot of unresolved issues. For SpyFest 2019, Week Three.

Written for Spyfest 2019 Week 3. Prompt: "Alex's best punchline to a villain." Let's be real, Blunt is the actual villain in the series. Why wouldn't Alex eventually have a line for him? Also: mild spoilers for "Alex in Afghanistan" if you haven't read it. You can understand the story w/o it, though.

There are differences in the way different people react to a speech. Or Alex giving a very needed piece of advice. Written for Spyfest 2019, week 3.

Alex gives Ben a small talk on life. For SpyFest 2019 Week 3.

"If I've ever delivered a 'cool pre-arse-kicking one-liner' to any sort of 'villain' I've ever 'faced down' in a 'battle for the fate of the world itself', it's not springing to mind at the moment." (For Spyfest 2019, Week 3)
