    Summary

    Perhaps her beauty might’ve been an issue for a man twenty years his junior. One who was anything other than repellent to women. But even at its most significant, his appreciation of her would only over exist from afar. It would only be an issue if his attraction was reciprocated.
    So it would not be an issue.

    Or

    Severus takes Hermione on as an apprentice and acts professionally around her.
    Until she makes it impossible for him to do so.

    Kakashi was used to losing people. He was not used to getting them back. And the feral surviving Sakura he gets back is not the same little nearly-civilian Haruno Sakura he lost but he's damned happy to have her back regardless.

    Summary

    “Why does your blood smell so strange?”

    The question startled Gale, who looked up from where he sat cross-legged in front of his tent, organizing his scrolls in preparation for their upcoming “visit” to the goblin camp. He’d given Astarion a wide berth since the revelation of his vampiric condition a few days earlier, so he was surprised to see the pale elf looming over him now, a peculiar expression on his face.

    “You know,” Gale offered with a smile, “in my extensive journeys across manifold realms, I do believe that is not a question that I’ve ever been asked before. I honestly can’t decide whether or not I should be offended.”

    -

    Of the many side effects Gale has faced as a result of his whole “being physical host to an imminently destructive magical orb” problem, he somehow never anticipated his blood now apparently smelling irresistible to vampires (or at least, one particular vampire) to be one of them.

    She fights.
    She fails.
    She dies.
    ————————————
    Nyrra wakes up in a pod with a tadpole in her head.

    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    The water was crushing, pummelling Shisui's broken form, even as it swept him further and further from Konoha.

    And then Shisui woke up.

    It's two months until the day he died. Two months to change the current of his life, of his Clan, of his village. And Shisui has no intention of letting history run its course.

     

    Shisui lives.

    (It started with Danzo but, by God, it wouldn't end with him.)

    The world is changed.

    (And so are the people in it.)

     

    "Don’t dismiss the elements.
    Water soothes and heals.
    Air refreshes and revives.
    Earth grounds and holds.
    Fire is a burning reminder of our own will and creative power.
    Swallow their spells.
    There’s a certain sweet comfort in knowing that you belong to them all."

    - Victoria Erickson

    Summary

    Kakashi doesn't do relationships, as a general rule. He'd had a family, and they'd all died. He'd had a mentor, and teammates that were starting to become what he might actually have called friends, and they died. The point being that Kakashi had been relatively unsure about forming social connections in the first place, and then life had backed up these feelings by cheerfully murdering everyone he really cared about.

    OR

    How Kakashi goes from being a lonely, bitter bastard, to finding the family he never thought he'd have again.

    Summary

    How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger.
    The monotony of Draco’s daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence.
    Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can’t find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why are morning meetings with Draco Malfoy the only thing that make sense anymore?

    Summary

    “Do you know what happens to little witches who don’t obey?”

    Fresh out of Hogwarts, Hermione gets a job as an assistant to the newly-appointed Minister of Magic. A man who’s gone through ten employees in less than a year and is notoriously famous for being unforgiving, stern and cruel to those who disobey his orders. 

    Despite running into problems on her very first day, Hermione hadn’t even begun to see the true extent of Tom Riddle’s cruelty. Yet.

    Summary

    Tom looked intrigued. “Soul Glass? I’ve never heard of it.”

    “Oh, yes, it’s a very rare material, indeed! If you look carefully, you can see the other half of your soul on the other side. Perhaps that of a lucky lady?” Mr. Burke winked conspiratorially.

    “How fascinating.” A slow, predatory smile overtook the handsome features of Tom’s face, something flashing in his eyes as they locked on the shadow beside his reflection. “A piece of my soul, you say?”

    Summary

    Mary Potter is back for her third year, wherein the story continues to diverge from canon at an increasing rate. Mary’s activities have not affected the Weasleys’ trip to Egypt, or their getting a photo in the paper, or Fudge giving a copy of the paper to Sirius, so Sirius still breaks out of Azkaban. There are new classes to deal with, and Hermione has a Time Turner. Remus and dementors are at Hogwarts, which means there’s cause to learn the Patronus Charm. Mary is banned from Hogsmeade for a completely different reason than Harry was, and of course there are detentions from Snape to deal with for the previous year’s adventures. There are some staffing changes at Hogwarts, and the kids do some serious growing up (even Draco). Nothing big happens, but enough little things happen that the kind of build up to have a formidable impact on character development. There will be new rituals, new rooms to explore, more interaction with Snape and Lupin, and lots of side-plot development.
