1''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/47434117 A World Without Danger]]'' is a ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'' and ''Series/CodeLyokoEvolution'' fanfic and part of the [[FixFic Season 5/Evolution Rewrite]] by [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/SepticAbzies/pseuds/SepticAbzies SepticAbzies.]] The author intends to make use of the good concepts they feel ''Evolution'' had, while working to improve on their execution.

3XANA has returned after a year, and the malevolent virus' return leads to revelations about Project Carthage and Aelita's family.

6!!Tropes
7* AdaptationExpansion: We get to see some of Jérémie's school life before Kadic. It's unpleasant, to say the least.
8* AdaptationDyeJob: Actually downplayed, compared to ''Evolution''. Sissi only dyes part of her hair blonde, instead of all of it.
9* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade:
10** The team is much more distressed by XANA's return than they were in ''Evolution''.
11** Jérémie, Aelita, and ''especially'' William have nightmares about the time they spent under XANA's control.
12* AdaptationalBadass: Jérémie is now capable of fighting on Lyoko, whereas in canon, he was entirely a non-combatant.
13* AdaptationalContextChange:
14** William was initially excluded in ''Evolution'' because the team didn't trust him to not mess up again. In the fic, it has more to do with residual trauma on the other Lyoko Warriors' parts.
15** In ''Evolution'', William claims his ability to still use SuperSmoke is because it was a leftover from his time possessed by XANA. Here, it was always the ability he was meant to have, and XANA merely altered the aesthetics.
16** In ''Chronicles'', Jérémie's Lyoko outfit was considered embarrassing because it was based on Peter Pan. Here, before Aelita modified it, it was a blue variant of Aelita's Mr. Pück based outfit, and he considered it embarrassing because it was a visual representation of the fact he loved her.
17** Instead of pieces of XANA's source code being stored in Aelita, Odd, Yumi, and Ulrich, Jérémie and Aelita contain keys to Lyoko inherited from Franz Hopper. This also raises the stakes compared to XANA's source code, because draining them will be lethal, just like it was for Aelita originally.
18* AdaptationalIntelligence: [[ZigZaggingTrope A complicated example]] with Jérémie and Aelita. When Laura debuted in ''Evolution'', they were frequently given the IdiotBall so that she [[CharacterShilling would look more intelligent]], but that's taken away here. As such, it's very apparent that they're both still geniuses.
19* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul:
20** While they had feelings for each other, neither of the fics' couples were together in ''Evolution'', but as of the prequel, ''The Theory of Evolution'', Jérémie and Aelita and Ulrich and Yumi have [[OfficialCouple gotten together]].
21** Related to the above, unlike in ''Evolution'', where he was still going after her, William has [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy stopped pursuing]] Yumi and is supportive of her relationship with Ulrich. Sissi has done similarly, but as she's never seen flirting with Ulrich by the time of ''Evolution'', it's hard to say if this is a change or not.
22** Hervé is now {{cyberbullying}} Jérémie.
23* AdaptationalWimp: In ''Evolution'', William was TheAce, despite having the least experience of all Lyoko Warriors. Here, he starts off closer to UnskilledButStrong, because while he is powerful, they're much more experienced in general, and especially at fighting as a team.
24* AgeLift: Because the TimeSkip is a full year, instead of six months, the Lyoko Warriors are a full year older.
25* BirdsOfAFeather: Aelita notes at one point that while most people don't see her that way, she's just as nerdy as Jérémie is and that's reflected in how they flirt. It's why, despite feeling obliged to ask before jumping to conclusions, Jérémie knows the love note wasn't from her. It's not her style any more than it would be his.
26* CastFromHitPoints: Using their powers costs the Lyoko Warriors' lifepoints in the Cortex. Jérémie is working on a program to avert this, but hasn't developed it as of yet.
27* ClingyJealousGirl: Aelita is not at all comfortable with the fact Laura is interested in her boyfriend, especially since up until now no one had been interested in him but her.
28* TheConfidant: William serves as Jérémie's, when he doesn't want to worry the rest of his friends, and as the only one besides Aelita who can relate to his nightmares about XANA's possession.
29* CrazyJealousGuy: Downplayed. Odd is able to wake Jérémie up by claiming Aelita is cheating on him, but the blond genius claims it was more because he was startled than anything else and that he knew his friend had just been joking.
30* GreenEyedMonster: This is why Hervé started cyberbullying Jérémie.
31* HeelRealization: After the Return to the Past, William and Sissi stop Laura from going through with her attempt at RelationshipSabotage by making her understand that even if it ''did'' work, and bluntly tell her it wouldn't even if she tried, she'd just be hurting Jérémie.
32* HopelessSuitor:
33** Sissi and William both realized they were this and thus both decided IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy.
34** Laura's crush on Jérémie was doomed from the start. Unlike ''Evolution'', not only does he already have feelings for Aelita by the time she arrives, they've also been in a relationship for almost a year.
35* LoveLetter: Laura gives an anonymous one to Jérémie much to his confusion and Aelita's outrage.
36* MythologyGag:
37** The title of the story is the English title of the original show's theme song.
38** The Subsonics changed their band name to the Subdigitals, much like their real life counterparts.
39* NoSocialSkills: Laura has basically none. Between sending an anonymous LoveLetter to a boy she's only known briefly to asking him if he would return her feelings if his girlfriend didn't exist, she doesn't seem to have much understanding of interacting with people.
40* OfficialCouple: During the one year TimeSkip covered by ''The Theory of Evolution'', Jérémie and Aelita and Ulrich and Yumi get together.
41* RelationshipSabotage: Attempted by Laura in "Green with Envy" by pointing out to Jérémie how Aelita and Odd act around each other, and implying it might be more than friendship. However, it only serves to anger and hurt Jérémie that she's spreading lies about his girlfriend and one of his best friends.
42* ThereCanBeOnlyOne: Non-lethal. Aelita says there can be only one "Mrs. Einstein" before she launches a Return to the Past to erase Laura's memory.
43* TimeSkip: The one in between the original series and ''Evolution'' was six months, but here it's a full year.
44* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Anthea was just trying to get away from Tyron. Unfortunately, activating his supercomputer enabled XANA to come BackFromTheDead.
