    Summary

    “C’mon,” Hound says, knocking his shoulder into Fox’s with a force that makes Fox stumble. “You gotta admit, it’s pretty funny.”

    “It’d be funnier if we didn’t have to investigate fucking bird murder now,” Fox mutters. He can’t believe he chugged his caf for this. The burn on his tongue still stings.

    “Burder,” Hound says under his breath. Then, “Wait. You’re not really going to investigate it, are you?”

    Fox stops. Hound does, too, shifting his weight, uneasy, like he senses he’s stepped into a trap. “Of course I’m going to fucking investigate it. It’s my job.”

    “But. It’s a duck.”

    “Wrong. It’s the Chancellor’s duck. And that makes it our problem.”

    “Our?” Hound asks weakly.

    Summary

    Love is a constant terror of loss, Obi-Wan instructs Anakin, once.

    He's twenty-seven when he says this. He’s had vague nightmares of war but no real knowledge of it. He hasn’t yet taken charge of a quarter of a million lives, hasn’t locked eyes with Cody and heard him say General, say Obi-Wan. At that moment he has no idea what it’s like to love the way his padawan loves, greedily, with grasping hands, desperate to see the depth of his hunger reflected back at him. He has loved, Qui-Gon and Siri and Quinlan and Bant, but these have all been loves that he was able to make himself ignore.

    He has no idea, yet, what it’s like to feel love that he cannot ignore.

    Summary

    The clones were supposed to be identical soldiers, flawless and efficient products. Instead, they were friction, disorientation, nonconformity.
    Or,
    As Kafer writes, ‘Disability too often serves as the agreed upon limit to our projected futures.’ This is me imagining different.

    Summary

    Do not go gentle into that good night,
    Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
    Because their words had forked no lightning they
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
    Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
    And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
    Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    And you, my father, there on the sad height,
    Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light

    Summary

    Hela watched and she thought and she planned. She watched over her people and she thought of defending them if something were to happen to her, if someone were to invade for her throne or power or people, who knew, and she planned how to protect them all (how to see her family again).

    Summary

    It was a bone-deep almost-ache when he opened his eyes and spotted the light flitting through the slats of his cupboard, both a familiar sight and at the same time distant like an old memory. It was a twist in his chest when he sat up, expecting—strangely—to hit his head on the sloped ceiling only to pause when he realized, of course, that he was far too short for that to happen.

    Harry was struck with a strong sensation—which had no apparent reason at all—that he should not be here.

    ---
    In which Harry Potter returns to his 11 year-old body after “dying” in the Forbidden Forest, given a second chance to change the ending of his story and the fate of the wizarding world. Except with the memories of his previous life buried deep in his subconscious, Harry must rely on his ever-present sense of deja-vu to guide him down a different path.

    Summary

    "Do not look at me with such trusting eyes; I do not deserve your loyalty.
    If you knew, if you had any idea of what I was about to do, you would turn your back on me and never look at me again with anything but disgust.
    But you do not know. You do not even ask.
    As ever, sirs, your faith - your unanswerable gift - leaves me…
    Humbled."

    (But no, do not be so hasty to judge lives that you have not lived.
    For indeed, it is desperation that makes murderers of mere men.)

    "See the last who comes, Albus Dumbledore. You send me to my death."

    Oneshot! Dimension travel done... differently.

    Summary

    Being a Parselmouth came with the inherent predisposition to understand snake behaviours and imitate them. It was relieving Harry wasn’t going to kill anyone with venom, nor petrify them with his gaze. But also, somewhat frustrating as it was all completely useless. None of the skills that came with being a Parselmouth would help Harry survive Voldemort.

    It might, in fact, have the opposite effect. For all Riddle's fury that Harry was the cause of his elder self’s defeat, he was fascinated by the fact Harry was also a Parselmouth. He had grabbed Harry’s face, turning him side to side looking bemusedly enraptured by Harry’s threat display. “At your age, I was imitating much more vicious snakes than this, Harry.”

    That may have been all well and good, but Harry didn’t feel very vicious. He felt very threatened and in over his head.

    Summary

    “You guys must watch a lot of movies,” Peter quipped, almost in disbelief of how ridiculous this whole situation was.

    He felt the unmistakable feeling of a cold metal barrel being pressing into the small of his back, and his Spidey Sense buzzed sharply in his ear.

    The men may have been idiots, but they meant business.

    “I would keep your trap shut if I were you,” one of them said next to his ear.

     

    OR

     

    Peter and Flash get kidnapped from a decathlon field trip, and this is the outcome.

    I had to just get this out of my head so I could stop thinking about it. That's pretty much it. It's not heavy, and honestly pretty fluffy.

    Summary

    Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, but his parents still died, and Albus Dumbledore, concerned that Death Eaters might seek the boy’s death, cast a powerful charm on him to make wizards ignore him before Harry was left with the Dursleys. Except, with the Elder Wand in play, the charm was far too powerful, and made others essentially forget Harry existed when not directly interacting with him. Sorted into Ravenclaw at Hogwarts, Harry lives a contented life with no one either loving or hating him…until the charm breaks on his seventeenth birthday, and he’s suddenly plunged directly into the middle of a living world at war.
