    Summary

    Now we were standing there, shield to shield. I knew - well, I hoped that we both knew very well that this was nothing. Like two wolves snarling at each other, a demonstration of power, without any real intent to harm.
    “I have no desire to tear your home apart by playing this game,” he said, breathing a little harder than it would be normal.
    “And I have no desire to blow your pompous head off either,” okay - that wasn’t exactly true.

    So, this is a Harry Dresden/Stephen Strange crossover. I love both characters, and hurt/comfort stories.
    I’m not going to over-explain it, give it a chance. :)

    The story is set after Battle Ground
    *Spoiler alert* if you haven’t read it yet!
    I know Twelve Months is on its way, so if it's released before I finish this story and some things do not match then sorry for that.
    About Stephen: Marvel comics’s story line is a mess, and I have problems with the movies too, so I might interpret him more freely. He exists after his two movies, but: Christine is not in the picture, and yes, he’s the Sorcerer Supreme.

    I write these stories for fun — but if there's anyone else out there who enjoys my weird ideas too, that just makes it even better. ;)

    Summary

    “Damn it, Stephen. I warned you.” I sounded more desperate than I expected.
    “I know,” he whispered.
    I rested my hand on his shoulder. “Listen to me okay? Campbell’s trying to help you. Let her work.”
    “No way… I let a med student… play with my head… with her filthy little magic.” His voice was a bit stronger. He was trying to sit up, grunted, pain pulled his face tight. I helped him up, supporting most of his weight. “Carefully.” I watched his expression, his gaze went more distant again. “Stephen, look at me.” His feverish eyes met with mine.

    This work is an excerpt (Chapter 16) from my ongoing story We Are Not So Different
    I uploaded it separately as well for Whumptober 2025, inspired by the prompt “Concussion”.

    The story alternates between Stephen’s and Harry’s points of view - chapter-by-chapter - so we get to see the mess through both pairs of eyes.
    Now it’s Harry’s turn to narrate.

    Summary

    The sequel to Afterimage

    Harry’s trip into the past created a twinned universe, inextricably linked to his own. Returned to the present, the fate of both universes now rests on his (and his counterpart’s) shoulders. But when a friend asks for help, Harry embarks on an investigation into an angel’s murder to discover who - or what - stole his Grace.

    And that’s the easy part.

     

    Be warned, spoilers for all official works in the Dresden Files series abound.

    Summary

    I cradled my injured arm against my chest to dull the throbbing. I could feel my blood-soaked sleeve already beginning to freeze stiff. I closed my eyes for a moment, focused on shutting out the pain and taking back control over my body.

    This work is an excerpt (Chapter 14) from my ongoing story We Are Not So Different
    I uploaded it separately as well for Whumptober 2025 as a direct sequel to Trust Is a Dangerous Spell.

    Now it’s Stephen’s turn to narrate.

    Summary

    ***Major spoilers for Cold Days!!!!! And everything before it!!!*** It never really sat right with me, the way things shook out for Molly Carpenter at the end of Cold Days. Here’s how I think it could’ve gone in a parallel universe where events were shifted just a bit.
    In which Molly does not become the Winter Lady, and instead completes her apprenticeship (journeymanship?) under Carlos Ramirez’s tutelage…basically, this story will follow the two of them during the year between Cold Days and Skin Game.

    Summary

    Harry Dresden and Thomas were just learning about the upcoming Peace Talks, when a hole in the sky drops the misfits/elites of an alternate Norse mythology. A beanpole einherjar, virgin valkyrie, viking linguist, Svartalf tailor, etc., this is all out of his paygrade.

    Meanwhile Magnus Chase and his friends are in for massive, bloody fight to the death. Just like every other day.

    Summary

    Harry lets Bob write his official gala calling card. He doesn’t proofread it. Chaos follows—magical politics, sidhe flirtation, an assassination attempt, and permanent social infamy. He survives, barely, but next year’s program now has his name on it.

    Summary

    What’s a wizard to do when a Knight of the Coin stabs her to death to get back at her father for thwarting one too many of his schemes? Well, if you ask Molly Carpenter, it’s probably something along the lines of “get dragged back in time by a force of phenomenal cosmic power to make things better”, not that she signed up for this.

    Summary

    The war has taken everything from Harry Dresden—his humanity, his freedom, and perhaps even his soul. Turned into a vampire by Paolo Ortega, Harry appeared to turn on every oath, wielding dark power and striking a questionable allegiance with a Fallen angel.

    Conscripted into a losing war after the destruction of the White Council, Molly Carpenter has been fighting back in her own way, fleeing to the only resistance left: the Fellowship of St. Giles. Armed with only her wits and a modest amount of magic, she's outmatched when she comes face-to-face with Harry Dresden. A desperate flight for her life turns into a chase, and she's run down.

    But Harry doesn't kill her. He doesn't even touch her...at first. She's being kidnapped and held as leverage against the one man who might end his reign of terror. It should be simple, right? Survive until the Knights come.

    Except, the truth runs even deeper than she can imagine. Molly is caught up in a dark web of blood and petty power games, forcing her to face the most difficult choice of her life. She has to place her trust in the very man who pulled her from the fray if she wants to keep her life--and sanity--intact.

    Deviates at the end of Death Masks.

    Summary

    Nicodemous Archleone was apparently the latest to hear of Lucifer's trading the throne of Hell for a nightclub in Los Angeles, and wanted to see this for himself. I'd already confirmed this for the White Council in my office as Warden, and was just having a drink to cool down, when Nicodemous himself walked in like he owned the place. I definitely didn't expect what happened next.

    Summary

    The problem with being a teenage wizard on the verge of going warlock with no impulse control was -

    Okay, actually there were a lot of problems with that, in hindsight. But the specific problem was, when the person who was acting as your impulse control got brutally murdered, things tended to get messy.

    You know. Hypothetically.

    (Harry will defend his choices after that to his dying day. So will Ramirez. Marcone, for his part, really wishes those choices hadn't been made in Chicago and thus become his problem.)

    Summary

    What's the idiom? Life sucks and then you die?

    If only.

    Summary

    There's one thing that Molly Carpenter knows for sure—breakups are easier when there are no demons involved.

    As the summer sun broils Chicago's streets, members of every supernatural nation converge on the city to propose peace. Molly is determined to hunker down in her apartment and wait out the political storm, but fate has other plans. The plight of a dear friend drags her out of self-imposed solitude and back into the wide world of supernatural dealings. The best way to reach her goal is on the arm of the last man on earth she should fraternize with—Gentleman John Marcone.

    But a jailbreak, deceitful lover, the shadow of a fallen angel, and the wardens of the White Council are the least of Molly's worries. An ancient enemy has declared open season on Chicago, and she's brought an army. The Last Titan can only be felled by a heavenly power...or an infernal one. Molly faces a trolley problem of epic proportions. The fate of one soul versus the survival of three million more. A simple equation...unless that soul is your own.
