    Summary

    Neil was acting shifty, and Andrew knew why; that motherfucker was leaving. Despite the promise between them, Neil was prepping to run. Andrew wasn't upset about that, not at all. After all, if notorious Neil "No-Swing" Josten needed to leave after Andrew admitted his desires regarding his proximity to Neil's shorts, who was Andrew to stop him. But that doesn't explain why Neil was stealing socks, or why he wanted Andrew's clothes.
    Whatever. That was probably unrelated.

    Summary

    Clary's introduction to the Shadow World goes a little differently when she accidentally befriends Alec Lightwood thinking he's just a little odd and a petty criminal.

    Or: New Yorker Clary thinks Alec's Shadowhuntering is just par for the course in the city. They become...friends. The events of canon are altered slightly by this decision.

    -
    "Alec sighs deeply and downs the rest of his drink in one. He pulls a small dagger out of seemingly nowhere and places it on the table. It’s also covered with the same little tattoos.

    “Are you crazy?” Clary hisses, rushing to throw her cardigan over the weapon. “Do you want to get arrested?”"

    *

    "Shadowhunter training, she finds out a week later after arranging a time and date with Alec via text (which, weird, they have each other’s phone numbers now), consists mostly of her falling on her ass.

    Alec seems to take great pleasure in flipping her during staff training. His moves are quick and smooth, catching each of Clary’s blows with no trouble at all. Even his hair remains perfect and untouched."

    Summary

    Six months before ‘I am Iron Man’, a man is left in an alley with nothing but his clothes, a first name, and a missing left arm. James doesn’t remember anything, but he picks himself up and tries to navigate the lost pieces of his life anyway.

    Six months after ‘I am Iron Man’, Tony is falling apart. Pressure from Capital Hill, stress about the Expo, PTSD from Obadiah and Afghanistan and a blood toxicity monitor reading 19% has Tony tipping over into a nervous breakdown, so one day he runs away and tries to get lost, hoping to find some peace.

    Tony and James meet as strangers but with Tony crossing things off his bucket list and James having nothing to lose, what starts as an offer to fix James’s arm quickly escalates into more.

    Through Monaco, the Expo, and a birthday party, Tony and James learn that getting Lost can lead to being Found in incredible ways, but James doesn’t know about the palladium and Tony isn’t ready to admit they have an expiration date.

    With time almost up, is Tony ready to say goodbye? And what happens when a Captain from James’s past shows up and calls him ’Bucky’?
