Remaining in the Calm at the Centre of The Storm by ang_the_adverse
Fandoms: The Princess Diaries - All Media Types
09 May 2013
Tags
Summary
So they asked me what I thought and I was still kind of terrified by the cameras and I just came out with, because I was just trying to be relaxed and jovial like Grandmere keeps saying, “It’s great, you know, it would mean I could marry whomever I want – because my wedding, if I have one, will be in Genovia - and more importantly, the people of Genovia can marry whomever they fall in love with.”
And I mean, I got to say ‘whom’ properly, and for feminism, say I might not get married.
But, as Lilly has pointed out, among all the other crap she has now pointed out to me about this, the media never want to hear about a princess who might not get married.

Summary
The orchard is a wild, thousand-flower, crumpled-gate, fall-down-fence sort of place, where things grow that you never asked for, that you’d never expect. The summer of ’96, the story of something flowery he thought he might have smelled at the Burrow.
Canon-compliant, oneshot, summer between OotP and HBP. Non-linear narrative, flashbacks/flash-forwards to DH. Harry/Ginny.

Hogwarts, to welcome you home by gedsparrowhawk (FaceChanger)
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
25 Sep 2016
Tags
Summary
“You understand, Professor,” Harry began, after a moment, “that I don’t have my N.E.W.T.s. I never even finished seventh year. Between everything, I never had a chance the first time around, and then afterwards there didn’t seem to be much point. Hermione argued for it, of course, but I was so tired of Britain. So technically, I am completely unqualified for the position.”
“Quite a way to begin an interview, Mr. Potter,” McGonagall said, dryly.
Or, three years after the war, Harry Potter becomes Hogwarts' newest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Summary
Logan doesn't get any votes for Most Changed at the ten-year reunion, which is bullshit when you think about it. In the past ten years, everything in his life has changed. He's joined the Navy, dated a pop star, and figured out that Dick Casablancas can occasionally behave like a real human being. Only one thing hasn't changed: he's still in love with Veronica Mars. Oh, and he's suspected of murdering his girlfriend.

Summary
PREVIEW:
"She feels useless, unable to step up and be as productive in the midst of grief as Alison has, not able to be as comforting as she feels Emily needs, not able to be as astute as she feels her response should be. She's just… there. She hopes that's enough for Emily."
SUMMARY:
↳Canon-Compliant!AU (shh it's a thing) of the Time Jump, wherein Spencer/Emily happens instead of Spencer/Caleb. (And all the messiness in between that would have to happen for that to work out.) :)

Summary
The Mighty Nein are good people, so the legends say, but legends have a tendency to soften the edges of the truth. Stories about people nursing monsters within their souls have their audience, but not in bedtime stories or tales shared on roadside camps between strangers traveling the world and meeting in passing. Cutting out the pain and misery isn’t done to disrespect those who bear it- it’s just inevitable that things get lost along the way.
Villains who find themselves face to face with the Mighty Nein often expect noble, traditional heroes who would never hurt someone who fled or asked for mercy. Perhaps on some days that would even be true.
