To Set Aside Fear for Courage by PrairieDawn
Fandoms: The Magnus Archives (Podcast), Young Wizards - Diane Duane
07 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Thirteen-year-old Gerard Keay finds a Leitner that is much more than it first seems and embarks on an adventure that will radically change not only his own life, but the entire world.
OR: Gerry takes up the yoke of wizardry and gains friends, family, and a purpose.
Note: I am assuming that the vast majority of readers will know little to nothing about the YWverse, so I'm making an effort to make the work accessible fandom-blind (though there may be some easter eggs for YW fans).

Can You See That Young Star Overhead? That's the One That Designed My Undoing by natsinator for BethFromTheBurg
Fandoms: Young Wizards - Diane Duane
14 Dec 2021

Summary
During a dream visit to Timeheart, Nita meets the Lone Power-- before he fell.
---------
“Not exactly me,” he said. “Someone I have the potential to be.”
“Is it really potential if you are always going to be here, like this?” Nita asked.
“That’s the beauty of potential, isn’t it? You never have to live up to it.” He looked distant. “You can see what it is, but you never have to reach out your hand and take it.” He illustrated with a gesture, his hand curling around nothing in the air in front of himself. She admired his fingers, how graceful the movement was.
“Do you want to?”
“Want?” he asked. “Now, that’s something that there isn’t much of in Timeheart.”
For some reason that she couldn’t have possibly explained, this made Nita unbearably sad.

Summary
Nita wriggled around on the bed until she could make glaring eye contact with her little sister and said in grim tones "The Lone Power is a silver fox."
There was an awful silence.
"I move we never speak of the last ten seconds again," said Kit.
"Seconded and carried," responded Dairine, instantly. -

"I guess," said Steve, wondering how Stark could possibly think that the continued state of near-war and terrorism was peace. He watched Stark thoughtfully, and after a moment, almost without conscious thought, said "Eldest, fairest, and fallen... greetings and defiance!"

Summary
Ahriman is an avatar of the Lone Power. Richie Ryan is a young wizard on Ordeal. Methos is all too familiar with how that story ends.

"I don't know whether we got it from the whales, or they got it from us, or it's just one of the echoes that show up sometimes. But the first Choice story I ever heard - and this was a long, long time and a lot of languages ago, Joe, and even Immortal memory has limits - started like that one. When the anthropoid apes first started walking, and talking, and twisting fiber into rope, and taking Oath to the One, there were a lot of different kinds of humans. Stumpy ones with big teeth who ate grass, and pale ones who played music in the snow, and short ones who chased small creatures in the savannah, and dark ones who built boats out of reeds. And more than that: maybe even Twelve. And the Lone Power took the form of one of them, and came to the very first wizard of the boat people, and said he had an offer to make her, but first he needed to know if she could Choose for all the apes-who-spoke, or only those who shared her mastery over the seas.

Callahans by adiva_calandia
Fandoms: Young Wizards - Diane Duane, Callahan's Bar Series - Spider Robinson
22 Nov 2012
Tags
Summary
Considering the precedent set by our predecessor, Callahan’s Place, we should’ve known it would only be a matter of time before something strange and wonderful walked in.
Mary's Place plays host to a couple new patrons. Contains a touch of underage drinking; existentialism; and of course, some truly horrible puns.
