《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 Magician Of Sound
After the strange phenomenon in the 21st century where animals became Magical Beasts and overturned civilization, humanity was graced by another power called Magic.
8 3077Elania, Arachne in a different world
Does have GL subplot later on. Warning: Since some people do not seem to get the slice of life idea, this story is SLOW. There is action and I intend to write more of it but don't come here expecting it to be the focus 24/7. A young woman from Earth wakes up in a cave, disoriented, confused, amnesic and with her lower body replaced by that of a giant spider. She has no idea what she stumbled into and all the extra sensations were definitely not helping. "Did I get reincarnated into a fantasy world?" She's not quite sure. But, the goblin, the troll and (soon enough) the hot elf all suggest "yes." As much as it creeps her out, her new body is powerful and flexible in some very interesting 'spidery' ways as she slowly learns to live with it. Combined with what modern knowledge she can still remember, the newly christened Elania soon finds herself building a new life as an adventurer among the elves. Who knows what awaits her? Maybe, just maybe, she might even find happiness along the way. There will be a fair amount of errors in writing up until chapter 43 (where I got a proper proofreader/editor to help me out.) Chapters 1-20 or so will at some point receive partial rewriting because I don't quite like the flow and feel there are some parts that don't make as much sense as they should. Please don't suggest edits for chapters up until 43, anything after that, feel free to in case we missed anything. Find me on discord at : https://discord.gg/TqFjdv8uaE
8 452The Sorcerer's Aria
Only ten years have passed since the last war. Now, war threatens to break again as both powers of Acolythis ready their forces. The stakes are higher than ever before because this time there will be no surrender. Sorcerers of this world use melodies and harmonies to create their powerful and deadly magic- Meaning the loudest score is often deemed the strongest. But when a child born of two nations finds that his score is too quite to master the harmonies and melodies that master sorcerers can, he must find a way to get creative or die trying. Especially when he is possibly the only one who knows the secret behind the entire war- and of those who will stop at nothing to keep the silence.
8 112Xeno on Planet Erde
*I was a on a hiatus but I am back! Chapters will start coming again!* It should have been a simple trip to Europa, the ice moon of Jupiter. Go to Europa. Establish a research station. Maintain the robots to search for life under the ice. Instead, I think we have shot way off course. Nope, we definitely shot way off course. There is no way I should be able to breath on this planet. Actually, there shouldn't be trees here. And why am I naked? Captain Lindsey Shin was selected to establish a research station on a ice moon. He instead finds himself on a planet with no idea where Earth is and now needs to find his brother and sister-in-law on a planet where magic runs wild and humans do not exist. A world of beastmen, elves, daimons and daemons. Oh and the main character is slightly insane? The narrative is mostly first-person. A lot of vulgar language and cussing is to be expected.

What seperates beasts from men isn't the language we speak or any such drivel taught to us in school. It isn't the way we walk or our intelligence that sets us apart. Some would have you believe that it is our ability to think and reason that makes us fundamentally different from the creatures that inhabit the world. That way of thinking, my friends, is entirely wrong. What seperates us from them and them from each other, is simply the skin that we all wear
