Alex Rider - Anthony Horowitz

Gentleman’s Agreement

by Valaks

In the year and a half since his supposed death Yassen Gregorovich had been a busy man. Unfortunately, Alex Rider had been busy too. They had a gentleman’s agreement for handling their business in the field but this was different. The teen had gone to the trouble of finding him, determining his target, and the ideal location of the hit. It would be a shame to waste that kind of effort, besides he needed to know how he had done it when his employers hadn’t. He would go to Alex’s meeting and then he would get his answers. OrAlex Rider needs an adult. For just a few minutes. And they can’t be affiliated with MI6. Unfortunately there’s only one person left in his life that matches that description.

Thats What Youre Going

by ReaderRevolution

“Seriously?” Danny deadpanned, craning his neck to get a better look at the machinery. “That’s what you’re going with?”The villain, a mid-tier inventor type with a shiny metal exosuit and an ego to match, stopped mid-monologue. “Excuse me?”Danny sighed, shifting uncomfortably in his bindings. “The containment field is way too unstable. I can feel the interference from here. And the capacitor over there? It’s misaligned. If you actually fired that thing, it’d blow up in your face. Assuming you could even get it to power up, which you can’t, because your wiring’s a mess. The targeting system? It’s way off. I bet you couldn’t hit me if I was standing still. And the coolant system—wait, do you have a coolant system? Because that thing’s about five seconds from overheating.”Or,I fucking died trying to make the engineering make sense.[Inspired by this tumbr post.]

Illumination

by Ivelostcontrolofmylife

Donatello was a man of science. He was at his most comfortable when he could tie up loose ends with logisticals and pragmaticism.He believed in facts, in making informed decisions based on evidence. It was hard enough to have grown up a padawan, raised by a Jedi, and yet have the blind faith he was expected to have in the force without just a *little* skepticism.Just how was he expected to handle this scruffy looking bounty hunter that kept stirring up extra work and feelings when he couldn't even see his face.How was he supposed to believe he felt the same way?
