    Summary

    New York City, 1960.

    At the height of the Cold War, an impoverished youth named Dio Brando beats the odds to become one of the world’s highest rated chess players. His competition is the wealthy and aristocratic Jonathan Joestar, his opposite in many ways. Their rivalry spurs them to new heights, despite rumours of Dio’s addictions and Jonathan’s failed marriage. Through the years they grow closer—and their relationship turns to something else entirely.

    Now with beautiful art by Julia/ne0ntetra!! And two beautiful cover pieces!

    [Chess AU inspired by The Queen's Gambit and Twitter]

    Summary

    Percy snorts, before shaking his head no. “Angela was worried that Diet Coke’s threat was real. And it’s not like Athena would care if her children were killed.”

    “Percy-” Hermes starts to argue, but Percy cuts him off. It’s not the first time that Percy has ranted about Athena; his dislike (to put it mildly) of her is infamous in his social circle, especially after his break-up with Annabeth.

    “Look, I know you care about your kids, and most of the other gods do, and you’re all working harder to be better parents. But while this is a good step for most of you, it’s nothing when you consider that Athena has been sending her children to die by their greatest phobia for millennia.” Percy snaps. “Gifts and visits and dancing don't even begin to fix any of that.”

    None of it was fair, and Percy hated Athena with an unquenchable vengeance for the way she treated Annabeth. Even now, two years after they had broken up, Percy’s anger at the war goddess was an unquenchable monster that lived within him. Annabeth, for all her flaws, was a worthy hero and had been a good friend and she deserved better than Athena’s neglect, abuse and cruelty.

    Summary

    Voldemort is gone. The Ministry rebuilt the world in his absence - not with freedom, but with control. Memories are rewritten, alliances are forced, and truth is buried under the weight of “Unity Through Order.”

    Hermione Granger, war heroine turned Memory Architect, tells herself she can do less harm from the inside. Draco Malfoy, Unspeakable and reluctant enforcer, hides sabotage in plain sight. Together they clash, argue, and uncover secrets the Ministry never intended them to find.

    When Hermione discovers her own memories have been tampered with, the truth unravels: about the war, about Draco, about what was stolen. In the ashes of betrayal, they build a defiant love and a rebellion born not of purity or blood, but of memory itself.

    Summary

    After a year of staying in the safe house and a long war, Luna moves into her old childhood home with her mother and the children.
    With ten children to care for, very few resources and only her mother for help, things get harder.
    And then they get a little easier.

    (At this point, we will admit: It's practically an original story that happens to happen in Panem.)

    Summary

    Hermione Granger couldn’t help but think that no matter how difficult they had all figured rebuilding their society would be, no one was expecting anything quite like this. It was another stark reminder that just when things were finally starting to level out, they would never truly have peace and stability. Her entire life in the magical world had been full of shocks and stumbles, and this one seemed like the biggest of them all.

    A post-war Dramione marriage law fic... with a twist!

    Summary

    After the fall of the Dark Lord the Purebloods who supported him were stripped of everything. Forced into a continued life of Darkness how will they react when an even darker force threatens to upend everything they've built?

    Or, Draco Malfoy, an underground crime boss, will do anything to save himself, his fellow Slytherin crew, and Hermione fucking Granger.

    Author's Note:
    This fic was loosely based on three very specific scenes from Peaky Blinders. If you’ve seen it, you’ll know when you get to those scenes. Mix in a bit of Tony Soprano and his mob crew banter and you get The Shadow Syndicate.

    Summary

    Harry swore up and down when he took the Head Auror position six months ago that there would be no office romances. He’d seen more than a few crash and burn one too many times, and the awkward air that hung over meetings after made it miserable for everyone in the office.

    The thing is, a lot can happen in six months.

    Summary

    Things hadn’t gone well for Remus Lupin since the end of the war, so he didn’t think he could afford to pass up an unexpected inheritance from someone he’d never met. Of course it turned out there were a few strings attached, including having to share his surprise windfall with Severus Snape. Not that Snape was particularly happy about that...

    Summary

    Hmmm. Tell you what Atsushi-kun, I will offer you a job!!”

    “Huh?!”

    “Since you look like a good boy, how about this? In exchange for a place to stay and a little stipend, you will be the nurse of a sick kid back at my home. So what do you say ?”

    Looking back, Atsushi should have asked for a more extensive description of the job. But in the end what could a war orphan ask for, in a country ravaged by poverty? He would rather take care of a sick child in the country-side and have a roof over his head rather than turn back to been homeless and accept whatever dubious and horribly paid job he could get in the capital.

    (A Post War Japan AU in wich Atsushi accepts a job as a nurse of a shut-in, after he saves Dazai from drowning in a strange secluded village far away from the capital. Where everybody tries to live peacefully while running away from their past)

    Summary

    The war is over, the treaties are signed, the Galactic Council is pacified. Megatron sits on a balcony and broods. Optimus is completely fine actually, his new job is great, and anyway, it's Megatron who needs help. Soundwave refuses to help. Starscream and Bumblebee are co-consuls. Rumble and Frenzy are in prison. Ultra Magnus is doing his best. Above them all in Cybertron's slowly healing atmosphere, clouds form and break.

    A story about fighting for peace, about giving up everything you have for love, and then having to live with it. About being a soldier when there’s no war left to fight.

    Peace, in the end, did not involve the total subjugation of the galaxy to Megatron's iron will. He did not tear down the galactic council to lay its ruins at Optimus' feet as his act of profferance. He did not end all war or rid the world of falsehood. He did not establish a tyranny so complete that no one remained to call it tyranny.

    Peace, in the end, did not involve him much at all.

    Summary

    “That brings us back to you,” he continued. Her head rolled onto her shoulder, suddenly feeling extremely weary. She blinked at him then lifted her head, pressing the pads of her forefinger and thumbs into her eyes.

    “What about me, Sirius?”

    “I’ve never known Hermione Granger to be…” he trailed off and she dropped her hand from her face, her eyes popping open to stare at him.

    “To be what? To be alone? Lonely? To be friendless? To be parentless? To be broken? News flash, I am all of those things. I haven’t moved on from the War. I haven’t moved on from losing my parents, losing my fucking identity,” she realized she was screaming now, arms flared out at her sides, but she just… couldn’t stop it once it started. “Ron hates me because I wouldn’t fuck him, Harry’s caught in the middle of that. I risked everything for them, and they abandoned me… again! And then there are you two-“

    “What about us?” Sirius seethed, his brow creased heavily over his eyes, taking large steps towards her until they were toe-to-toe.
