    Summary

    --“I want a bard, Lam,” Aiden says, giving Lambert very good pleading eyes. “There’s a whole passel of them in town - can we steal one?”

    “No,” Lambert says firmly. Jaskier begins towing Aiden through the tavern, hopefully towards the promised private room. Geralt nudges Lambert to follow.

    “Just a little one?” Aiden asks plaintively over his shoulder. “Pocket-sized?”

    “No,” Lambert repeats, rubbing his forehead. Geralt suppresses a snicker.

    “I can recommend a few who might enjoy being stolen!” Jaskier puts in brightly--

    Left Unsupervised by inexplicifics.

    Now what if they did end up stealing a pocket-sized bard?
    Of course before they can steal her she has to become a bard first.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins hated Lobelia Bracegirdle long before he'd ever met her. And in turn, Lobelia Bracegirdle, being the ambitious and overachieving sort that she was, absolutely, totally, wouldn't-have-spit-on-him-if-he-were-on-fire despised Bilbo Baggins long before she'd ever met him too.

    Against all odds and their feuding families, they get married.

    But it's not that kind of love story.

    Summary

    It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
    It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…

    Summary

    It wasn’t even an issue of morality. It was an issue of watching the most powerful ant in a hill shake its pincers at the universe, screeching its dominance and insidiousness at everything and then realizing abruptly that it does not know how to swim.

    (Gwen Stacy tricks DA Franklin Nelson and Murderdock into playing a game of familiarity. It gets out of hand when Foggy starts to fall for Murderdock. Meanwhile, Murderdock is his own special brand of idiot.)
