Prequel to IA1 and my upcoming story Cruel Intentions. In a harsh world filled with danger and excitement, three young lives will collide... follow Manny, Diego, and Sid as they grow up from age seven into teenagers and into the course of the first film as adults. T for violence, language & implications of a sexual nature. AU. Update coming this year! (Finally!)

"Diego," Manny says. "It's okay. I know the other mammoths and other creatures of the valley will think little of me for doing this, but that doesn't matter. You know I will always have your back." This fic explores the relationship between Manny and Diego during the end of the Meltdown and into DoTD. What caused Diego to leave Manny? Sorta meta-ish. Foreshadowing for my CI-verse.

Ronin encounters memories of the past and struggles to make sense of M.K upon Tara's death. Includes implications of plant-bondage. Also posted at Ao3. Ronin/Tara.

Ice Age human! AU, College university setting. Everything remains the same except the characters are humans and instead are trying to return Pinky to his family after the gang war that Diego's band started. This is the scene after Diego's confessed to his sin in the Original movie. How will Manny react? Also posted at Ao3.
