《Wished Away : Loki x neutral!reader》12. A Strange Visitor
Advertisement
You're sitting on the couch reading the last of A Midsummer's Night Dream and eating grapes, when an orange portal shows up and the one and only Dr. Strange walks through, urgently looking around.
"What do you need Magic Mike?" Tony asks looking away from the coffee machine to look at Strange.
"I'm investigating, something felt... off," he answers.
"Would you say it was a strange feeling?" Pietro jokes, laughing to himself.
"Oh fuck, I forgot that you're American," you exclaim. "And that fourth wall break was really uncalled for."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Strange asks. His eyes narrow, "Who even are you?"
"Aren't you supposed to know everything? You are the Sorcerer Supreme, right?" you say.
"I am but that doesn't make me some benevolent, all-knowing god," He responds.
"Understandable. I'm Y/n, I'm from a different timeline-"
"Different timeline?! That must be it! You're messing with the timeline, I can feel it."
"I'm sorry, I didn't catch a word you said. I'm still getting over your American accent. It shocks me every time," you apologize.
"Am I not American in your timeline?" Strange asks, tilting his head.
"Nope. You're British, and an actor named Benedict. He plays you in movies," you tell him. "You're kind of a fictional character."
"We'll talk about that later... there's more important things to deal with right now. How did you get here?"
"Not sure to be honest. I just kind of woke up here," you shrug.
"You just... 'woke up' here?"
"Yeah. Crazy, I know," you say, attempting to throw a grape in your mouth but missing. "Oh! You know what would be absolutely devastating to the fourth wall? If you met Everett Ross!" you exclaim.

"Who?" Strange asks.
"Not that guy again," Bucky groans. "Last time I saw him he tried to arrest me."
"Yeah, how about we avoid people that might try and arrest one of us...," Steve says.
"Fine," you pout.
"...So you just showed up, and now you're here, and where you're from we are all fictional characters?" Strange says, sounding very confused.
"Correct! Now, tell me, are you a Sherlock Holmes fan?" you ask, eating another grape.
"What does that have to do with anything?"
"Just answer the question."
"...Yes, isn't everyone?" Strange answers causing you to start hysterically laughing.
"You—I can't believe it—This is amazing," you laugh, your train of thought getting cut off by your own laughter.
Once you calm down, Sam asks, "Why is that so funny?"
"Because Benedict—Strange's actor—plays Sherlock Holmes in modern day adaptation," you answer.
"Who plays Watson?" Strange asks.
You smile. "Everett Ross' Actor."
"Is that why you wanted us to meet?"
"Yes." You eat the last of your grapes and get up to put the bowl in the sink. "Also, I just like how you live at 117A Bleecker Street, and Sherlock and John live in 221B Baker Street. One of life's little coincidences."
"Coincidences aren't usually coincidences, life is rarely so lazy," Strange mutters.
You quickly turn your head to face him. "You did not just say that. What secrets do you know?"
Strange puts his hands up in surrender. "I studied time and how it behaves, I know how coincidences work."
"That's a suspicious answer, but I'll let it slide for now," you reply.
Strange's phone rings and he picks it up. "Wong? Mhmm... What?! Okay I'll be right there," he speaks into the phone before hanging up. "I gotta blast, if anything comes to mind or if anything weird happens, call me."
Strange opens a portal and steps through, leaving you all standing around awkwardly. Slowly, everyone disperses and goes back to what they were doing previously. You had 5 pages left of the play and you were looking forward to talking about it with Loki over dinner tonight.

The Deathseeker [Under Revision]
NOTE: This story has dark elements, but it's neither grimdark nor particularly edgy. It's also currently being revised. Satan's Axe...Lord of High Honor...The Immortal Giant...The Black Maelstrom...Son of Thunderfield...The Gods' Retribution. Dalric had many names. None were as fitting as his last, Dalric the Deathseeker. Born from an unwanted mating between the greatest warriors of the time, death was his only true kin. It birthed him, molded him, and now standing in the middle of a lifeless battlefield, it drenched him. The blood of thousands of soldiers soaked his skin. Two hundred thousand men approached him that day. All of them sought his life, none of them left with theirs. But they would not die in vain, they had accomplished their mission. Hidden beneath a thousand layers of their blood, was Dalric's very own. Feeling his life fade, he gazed weakly at his work. A seemingly endless array of corpses laid battered and disfigured before him. Some bore faces of horror, most had no face at all. His most trusted companion floated in front of him, blocking the view. Waves of sorrow flowed between them. “My time has finally come. I’ve begged for death and it’s finally arrived. My work is done...and so is yours. You’re free to be who you were meant to.” With his contract with the gods fulfilled, they were truly free. The centuries of torment would end. No longer would they have to walk the path of a monster. Little did Dalric know, the devil was in the details. What To Expect: A good time. In a few more words than that, a cast of believable characters in a unique world dealing with conflicts and problems a little bit more complex than punching the big evil guy in the face. Just a little though. Minimum Word Count a Week: 5000 Release Time(s): Between Friday 12pm EST and Monday 6am EST I also write A King in the Clouds

The Guide
Leon Octavian Sirus was the head scientist of the Median Empire’s department of artificial intelligence. He tried to play god by creating a world with true sentient life, though virtual. It is still a world with people that can learn, think, and feel and as always that action had consequences and one of them was his death by his own creations. Despite commiting a grevious taboo, his world was succesful enough that instead of burning in the depths of hell, which is what this sociopath deserves, he is given the chance by his own world's guide to guide a race in a young world. P.S. This awesome cover was made by the more awesome MikeWe.

First of all this is a story that I´m writing casually in my free time so i think for the first few chapters dont expect regular updates.. This will be a story where the comment squad has a heavy influence on the story because I would find it funny to try and mix some things in that you guys suggest me in the comments :)Anyway now to the synopsis : This is a story about a boy named James Anderson.James died because he was struck by lightning while he was walking down the street on a rainy evening... After he thought everything was over he heard a voice asking him for a wish and for one wish only.. He knew his answer as soon as the question was asked because he fought for his whole life despite being only 19 years old.. He always has had a rough time because his family was poor and they needed to fight for every bit of money they could get.. he got in fights a lot.. so his wish was a simple one that would change everything.. " I wish to have the potentiell to become the strongest being in all existence so that i dont have to fight anymore ! " I dont really know where this story will go but i have a few ideas in mind, as alredy mentioned before, i write this on a whim and hopefully " together " with the readers...I hope you enjoy the story ~~~ PS: Cover found on Google, i own no rights on that one.
