Summary
“His life had always orbited Oscar’s, like the smaller moon that never quite got far enough away to be anything else. Now, he could feel the orbit tightening. Gravity pulling them both toward the same center. He reached the Lexus, curled his fingers into the edge of the tarp, and took a breath. This was the line. He crossed it.”
Nico moves between worlds that should never touch. Private school uniforms and strip mall parking lots. Fluorescent classrooms and salvage yards. The fragile promise of escape and the older, fiercer pull of survival. At Woodlawn Preparatory Academy, there are quizzes and scholarship expectations and the slow, bewildering possibility of being seen. In Oscar’s orbit, there’s loyalty, danger, and the kind of love that has teeth in it.
When one world begins to bleed into the other, Nico finds himself caught between the life he’s always known and one he doesn’t know how to want.

Summary
When Lavender Brown sees someone in trouble, her first instinct is to go help, even if that someone is as unpleasant as a Blast-Ended Skrewt. So in fifth year, when Lavender has a prophetic dream in which Professor Snape is bitten by a giant snake, she immediately starts planning to save him.
Along the way, Lavender learns to enjoy Potions and even, slowly, starts to appreciate the teacher she's trying to save. Their newfound mentorship, however, makes the bewilderment Lavender feels all the more painful when Snape kills Dumbledore at the end of sixth year. What does it mean to have faith and kindness, when there seems to be so little to go around?
The future has teeth Lavender can’t predict, and all her bids for security go nowhere. But that doesn’t mean there can’t be other, better surprises in store.
Currently covers events of OotP and HBP, with more to come. Updates weekly around Monday/Tuesday. Surprise bonus chapters may also be given ;)

Summary
He let out a low grimace, "Why would I trust you, sparkles?" He pushed as he continued to practice sharpening the training knife.
12 let out a bittersweet smile, "Because," she pleaded, her voice letting out a small crack as she blinked tears away from her eyes, "this is the only option we have."
Or
AU where Katniss makes an alliance with Thresh, Rue, and Peeta so Rue can survive, with Haymitch helping out Thresh and Rue as well after his own tributes begged him too, but nothing turns out quite as anyone expects...but mostly small snippets of them during the games and how a team up would work out.

Summary
“Hi!” A cheery voice interrupted him, making him jolt. “Welcome to Heaven! Can I get your name, please?”
Alastor lifted his head to see where the voice had come from. A rather slender, pale man with curly blonde hair was addressing him. In front of…
… oh.
He was dead.
And in… Heaven?
But he had sold his soul to a demon, hadn’t he?
“Hello,” Alastor managed to stand up, wobbling as he did so. “Um, are you sure I belong here?”

Summary
Hares are born precocial. From their first breath, they are eyes-open and fur-clad, condemned to the perpetual motion of the flight response. This is the 'freedom' the world attributes to them: the liberty to run across the cold earth until the heart inevitably gives out.
So when she surveys the exhausting horizon and chooses, instead, the narrow threshold of a hutch belonging to a hungry master, who could blame her? Inside the house, the air is thick with the scent of yellowing pages and coppery crimson, yet she is the only hare to choose her end. If she was born prey, rather be a masterpiece on a silver platter than a mangy creature running toward an inescapable death.

Summary
“It’s a shame, what honour does to good men. I suppose the gods have a very glutinous taste for them. Why else would they take him and not you?”
Daeron knew his place in the sea, with the rest of the plains, while the divine overlooked them both, him and Valarr and the rest. Aerion was the exception to this; he was the divine, holding a chalice filled with offered wine. Sweet in his smile, generous with his gifts. Daeron had wondered about that too: if Aerion was ever aware, or if he was oblivious to the effects he had around him—to the tides and the directions of the sun alone, where everyone else knelt so low that he could not see them.

Summary
"I surrender"
That should have been a huge warning sign.
Santos never surrenders. Not when she had food poisoning and had to be dragged away from work, not when Langdon was yelling at her the first day, not when Robby was being especially petty, she never backed down.
So even admitting that should have told them something was wrong. -

Summary
『Dies illa, dies iræ, calamitatis et miseriæ, dies magna et amara valde
Dum veneris iudicare sæculum per ignem.
Requiem æternam dona eis, Domine: et lux perpetua luceat eis.』⭕⭕⭕⭕
When the first case file arrives on your desk, you could only sigh and drag your feet to solve a basic ‘missing item’ case. Then another five android cases appear and your headache seems to worsen along with it. It took them another twenty cases until any cases involving android was classified as a ‘deviant android case’.
In hindsight, this whole “deviant” thing is bound to happen. Is it really that surprising?
