From author: There are all sorts of stories I wish to share, not all of which ought to have dedicated threads.

A Practical Guide to Escalation (11k words)
by NotZiz
Crossover: A Practical Guide to Evil
Summary:
From author: An introduction: This fic came to me while reading PGtE because you could practically swap Catherine and Taylor and have the stories vary very little. So I wondered to myself, what would it be like if two queens of escalation with morally dubious choices got together? Well, a whole lot of goblinfire, biblical plagues, and general fuckery. Since my search on SB of fics for PGtE revealed a grand total of none, I decided that this was my calling. For those of you not familiar with a Practical Guide to Evil, here is the weblink. It's a weekly updating web serial about Catherine Foundling, an orphan who likes to do the wrong things for the right reasons. The first book is a bit slow and cliche, but that's intentional and pays off greatly in book two. Imagine the start of Worm, but if Taylor actually had a sense of humor and a bit less angst. The series is still on-going and I highly recommend picking it up.
This fic: A crossover between the two. It starts with Taylor ending up in Calernia, the world of PGtE. Where it goes from there, we will have to see. The fic occurs after the Echnida incident in Worm and after Book 2 in PGtE. It updates when it updates.

Gambit (142k words)

Summary:
From author: A young girl without a past or name wakes alone in a dirty alley within a disreputable section of New Orleans. Cold, hungry, confused and scared she tried to find someone who might be able to answer the question of who she was, unsuccessfully. Instead she is found by Jess, a relativity unknown parahuman thief. Taking pity on the young waif, Jess teaches the girl how to steal to survive staying only long enough to see that she had a natural talent for the work and that she'd be fine on her own. Over the next two years the street rats of the Big Easy named her the 'Le Diable Blanc' or 'White Devil'. Mostly because of her eyes though partly for her tendency to talk people into -or out of- just about anything. The Protectorate called her Deck.
Jess called her Renée.

Summary:
From author: In a universe that's not quite the canon one, the Endbringers join Taylor as human teenagers. And then stuff happens.
... I'm still working on this whole summary thing, alright?

And it's not all a Simurgh plot.

Of Wasps and Wizards (84k words)
by Rhydeble
Fusion: Dresden Files
Summary:
From author: On the Worm side of things, the fic starts shortly after the Leviathan fight, in the city of Chicago. Taylor has her canon powerset, and unless otherwise specified, everything up to arc 8 (The Leviathan fight) went the same way it did in Canon.
On the Dresden Files side of the setting, things are slightly different. Events are roughly at the time of Fool Moon, although certain things went differently. His mentor's betrayal caused Harry to trigger with Myrddin's canon powerset, and Harry used those abilities, not magic, to kill the man. Therefore, he was never under the Doom of Damocles. Partially of his own choice, and partially because of a request from some others, he decided to join the Protectorate to gather information about the parahuman phenomenon. Harry is a wizard and a parahuman, pretending to be a parahuman pretending to be a wizard.

Revenant (122k words)
by Songless
Crossover: Supreme Commander
POV: Taylor
Summary:
From author: Taylor triggers as a Tinker (oh god not another one) with access to the Cybran tech tree from Supreme Commander. If you've read A Cloudy Path (and you should) things will start at least a little bit familiar, but keep in mind Cybrans fight very different than Aeon. The Cybran tech is the extent of the AU/crossover, there won't be any surprise visits from Dr. Brackman or other SupCom bits and pieces, and any changes from canon are either a direct result of Taylor's different powers or my own genuine mistake. If I dun goofed about canon, let me know and I'll fix it if at all possible.
