Summary
AU reboot of the entire SAO storyline, beginning from the premise that Kayaba Akihiko was obsessed with magic and Norse Mythology rather than swords and pure melee. As a result, he created the Death Game of Alfheim Online rather than the floating castle of Aincrad—a world in which player-killing is not a crime, and the nine player races are in competition with each other to reach the top of the World Tree. Multi-POV epic following the stories of multiple canon characters throughout the game.

Summary
Kirigaya Keiko was a fairly normal teenage girl, smarter than her classmates, a bit short tempered when she had to deal with concentrated idiocy, but for the most part, normal. The problem was her passion for gaming, and the desire to avoid all stereotypes involved with being a female gamer. So she always hid behind her male avatar Kirito, that is until SAO...thanks much Kayaba...

Summary
Gabby didn't notice at first.
Thing is, she clenches her jaw a lot - even in her sleep. Asa fusses 'bout that constantly. But Gabby's used to pain; she hardly even registered she was sore. Seriously.
She's not some freak, though - she noticed when it got worse. It's important to suss out when and where you're hurting, keep an eye on it so it doesn't get you killed. Killed is worse than hurt. Not that a stupid toothache is anything like a stab wound or a broken wrist. Gabby just started popping Advils with the gum when it got bad, no biggie.
... Right?--
'oyashirazu: short for 親不知歯 (oyashirazu-ba, literally “parents not-knowing tooth”) a wisdom tooth (from the likelihood that the wisdom teeth do not erupt until after no longer in daily contact with one's parents, due to moving or death)' - wiktionary

Summary
Asa still remembers that conversation so, so clearly. Sore feet, the smell of sunscreen when she brushed her hair back. That dream of a completed Shurijo main hall, striking scarlet braced against those roiling white clouds, first in an onslaught of somedays and agains.
"I want to bring Gabby too!" She could picture it - Gabby, vivid and lovely as the vermilion tiles. The guidebook explained how the color was achieved, trivia forgotten in favor of how badly she wanted this.
Why not be greedy? she felt, in a voice like Break's. Why not? There she was wishing for field trips, for her parents, for normal. Picture Gabby giddy, not heartbroken or furious she was left behind. A vision. Why not?--
Three years later, after everything, that outing doesn't quite go as Asa expects. Spoilers for ch55.

Summary
“So, please: ask me again.”
Catra’s eyes widen in understanding. She nods, nudging Adora’s larger palm with hers so their fingers can tangle. “What do you want, Adora?”
Or,
The war is over, and life is just beginning.
