Summary
Ever since she’d been small, Hermione’s reward for good marks had been a rampage through a bookshop, so the day she tore open her O.W.L.s results and triumphantly brandished the eleven Outstandings, her beaming mother said, “We’ll go to Foyles tomorrow,” without any discussion required.

Summary
In a world obsessed with killing and dying, Seiko is mostly concerned with chasing off her boredom. The Academy wasn’t exactly intellectually stimulating, but dying in the second shinobi war sounded like a long walk off a short pier. Everyone is always so stressed about avoiding attention, or min-maxing skills in situations like this.
Seiko is of the opinion that those people need to chill the hell out. Maybe play a little shogi. Death comes for them all anyways. Better to enjoy this all while it lasts.
(genius self insert stumbles into disrupting a timeline with the intentionality of an elephant trampling a very fancy tea shop.)

Summary
"I didn’t understand I wanted to live until Hatake Sakumo saved my life."
Having been (absurdly) reincarnated into a previously fictional setting, Yamada Hanako felt satisfied staying in the background-- this story was written before she arrived, and it would continue without her just the same. Unfortunately, she made a single, critical error: a bit part is still a part.
This... fucking sucks.

Summary
Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

After escaping from Merope in London and fleeing back to Little Hangleton, Tom Riddle had thought he was free of witches. He wasn’t expecting yet another witch to turn up on his doorstep. This one seems different, but she too smells of Amortentia. Can he trust her when she tells him that she has brought him his baby from a London orphanage?

Summary
Direct sequel to AIC.
Aiko Uzumaki, seal master with poor judgment and impulse control who has stranded herself dimensions away from home, attempts to get out of the pit she's dug for herself via sacrilege (the death god could stand to be less petty about people stealing from him) by engaging in piety.
As in, she is all-in on a con to pose as a religious figure in the pre-village unification era to build up worship for the dead mother goddess Izanami. By leaning on someone else's power, she does manage to get back to her correct universe. Just, uh, early. How hard can it be to start a cult and worm your way into the upper echelons of feudal society?
...Seriously. Is that gonna be hard?

Summary
[A 90's Era X-Men Self-Insert]
"There is an old adage among lawyers that says: If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table." – Martin A. Davis, Jr.
Mutant law is an emergent field, more or less the wild west of the legal profession, and on a good day, you're lucky if the law and facts aren't all dead-set against you. And when your list of recurring clients includes the Wielder of Cerebro and the Master of Magnetism?
Well... suffice to say, there is plenty of pounding the table to be done.

Summary
When Voldemort died at the Battle of Hogwarts, nothing had prepared him to reawaken as Tom Riddle circa 1943, rid of his madness but left with a gnawing sense of defeat. Things may have gone wrong the first time around, but Tom vowed not to let the course of history run unchanged. He could do better, and this time... no one would stop him.
