Gold Morning was supposed to be the end. The capstone of a short, frenetic career. Taylor Hebert’s fight was supposed to be over. But the end of one story is often the beginning of another, and when she’s offered the chance to take part in a mission whose scale and scope feel so very familiar, there’s only one answer she could give.
A Fate/Grand Order fanfic where the story of Worm's Taylor Hebert continues beyond Gold Morning as a member of Chaldea's A Team, and how that might impact the...
Changing universes, getting superpowers, and merging mind and soul with a homeless orphan child isn't terribly dramatic or difficult. The parts before that really aren't all that much worse. Unfortunately, that's only the beginning for poor, unfortunate, Jacqueline Colere. Being small and adorable is a pretty good superpower, as is being mostly capable of making good decisions. And healing powers are pretty great, even if they're also pretty useless in a fight. She even has good people...
"If the tables were turned, if it was you who had your identity uncovered, you would want us taking the same firm hand, giving you that same respect." In which Shadow Stalker is the one to see Skitter unmasked.
It all starts in a locker. When Taylor calls out for help, something answers.
And remember, one does not choose a Gundam to pilot, the Gundam chooses you.
(And blame Sunrise for the crazy title. At least it's not a light novel title...)
A tired mage drops something. A flickering soul picks it up. Earth-Bet will never be the same again.
Or, How a World Rune came to be in my possession.
OC reincarnation.
She's a Herrscher and she's pretty sure she's in the wrong series. Instead of being reborn in that anime world featuring an all-female caste of supersoldiers and a worldwide militant church, she's in a superhero deathworld where people get powers from trauma and is now in an enviable position of facing down two multiversal-scale apocalypses.
Or:
Depressed magical girl punches super nazis and space whales.

Taking hints from Spy x Family but set in the gritty universe of Worm in 2009, years before canon.
This story follows William McBride, a PRT agent who suffered at the hands of Leet's infamous tech and was enhanced. His past life or maybe future, memories awakened and he tries to prevent the world from ending in five years, the only problem is that the world doesn't align with his memories. Annette is alive and Danny is dead. Unheard of capes are around and agents aren't the useless punching...
Alt-power Taylor in the Worm verse with butterflies in play before the canon locker scene. Things are changed beforehand and echoed through the dotted lines of the stations, but not tied to them. Like a winding river, it may flow past familiar shores or cut its own path through solid rock. Is it crack? Not primarily. Is it different from my other fics? --it does have a different title, so yes.
Worm is not mine. I am just playing in a world built and owned by another fellow. Its his Lego...

What if the gods never left us behind? What if Zeus just bullied them into silence? If that was the case, then the only way for them to get around that is if the Earth were in danger... oh wait, this is Earth Bet, in that case, why didn't they come sooner?! oh, yeah.... Zeus.

Been a wild ride. Just marking this complete in a way that aggregators can see. ;)

On September 19, 2008, Amy and Victoria Dallon undergo a cluster trigger event after being held captive for over a week. This is about how they pick up the pieces and explore the complications brought on by the cluster dynamic. This is a character-led story and as such many character dynamics and relationships cannot be tagged ahead of time as they will develop organically. Scion, the Endbringers, and other massive-scale threats will likely not play a major role in this story. While the...
On January 3rd, 2011, Taylor Hebert died of a heart attack while trapped inside of her own locker, filled with shit, waste and muck from the girls washroom. That should have been the end of her story, and the premature end of the woman that would go on to save the world.
Whether by fate, or by luck, death is not the end. Instead, it is a new beginning. The story of Skitter is irrevocably changed.
And it all started with Hades, the Greek God of the Underworld himself, asking Taylor to drag...
Once, there was a moth, drawn inexorably to the divine flame. It stole that fire for itself, forged it into weapons that could shake the earth and cast down the heavens themselves, heedless of cost or sacrifice. Surely, it thought, even as its wings charred in that heat, with this might it could defeat the ceaseless malice which sought to consume all life. Anything was justified in the face of such evil. Victory would wash away all sin.
It failed.
The moth burned. Its world burned with it...
A man wakes up on Earth Bet with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. The problem is, he showed up too early and in the wrong place.
Once again, Lung tasted defeat at the hands of the woman in the suit. As reality shattered, his mind was thrown into the past, on the day of Leviathan's attack on Kyushu. In the aftermath, Kenta tries to find his place in an uncertain future.

Taylor didn't survive the Locker, but was given a second chance because a certain toddler hates paperwork. (Considerable AU elements, canon need not apply)
Taylor Hebert knew that her mom had been a member of Lustrum's gang when she was in college.
Of course that didn't prepare Taylor for actually meeting a cape that had been friends with her mom who is very determined to protect Annette's legacy after Taylor triggers.
What if you had power...
...real power...
...power enough that no one could stop you...
...what would you do?

“But you should know your chances going in. Given the statistics from our previous encounters with this beast, a ‘good day’ still means that one in four of the people in this room will probably be dead before this day is done.”
15th May 2011 turned out to be a very bad day indeed. And now Taylor and Lisa are just two of the refugees fleeing the flooded ruins.

If an angel screams and no one is there to hear it… Does the world burn?
This is the story of a girl killing herself for a dream that she doesn't even believe in, to uphold a legacy foisted upon her shoulders by the death of one she held dear.
With every stumble, the cracks widen.
TLDR Synopsis: Scion's dead. He took himself out. The world doesn't know what happened. This is the (my) logical progression after that. An anti-villain story set in a dying rotting city.

An undergraduate engineer with a parahuman studies major develops a drug problem in 2008. Things get very weird from there.
Taylor, known in her cape persona as Semi;Colon, is a Tinker classified as a villain by the PRT and Protectorate. Her specialty? Trans. Both human, and gender. When she allows herself to be taken in after a few months of operation, she finds the PRT and Protectorate locking horns with each other in a political stalemate, with the Wards at the center.

It's 2012. Bakuda is plotting the ABB's ascent to true city wide power. Browbeat is struggling with the pressures of leadership. Uber has discovered the profitability of complaining about politics in Video games.
But in the middle of it all, a Taylor Hebert has learned to build weapons that harness the power of Orginium Arts.
Shame about the disease, though.
A place for my Worm Plot Bunnies.
June, 2008.
The life Taylor Hebert has known collapses in an instant.
When she loses everything, the only choice she has is to run. Abandon her parents, her friends, and the world she was growing up in, because the thought alone of hurting anyone else destroys her.
But Taylor can't leave everything behind, because no matter how fast she runs she can't escape her memories, and good people - people that aren't like her - are after her.
She doesn't want them to find her. She knows what...
This is probably going to be mostly a crackfic. An OC is given a new power along with an unusual request on how to use it. This shard, though powerful, is a bit different. Power will grow over time.
