Summary
There was only one conclusion: an Aedric artifact had been found, used extensively, and lost to the Psijics of all people. The Stormcloaks swarmed from the College's gates to the Karth searching for something, anything to blame for the 'tragedy' - and the Legion let them. No doubt the locals were working themselves into a frenzy of Wild Hunt proportions. An untold number of Thalmor operatives were dead as those responsible talked in circles around their mistake.
The part Rulindil found hardest to swallow was that Master Malcior's wife - High Kinlord Vicarian's daughter - was one of the casualties.

Summary
After learning of the disaster that was the Eye of Magnus at the College of Winterhold, the Thalmor Council sent eight Conservators to retrieve the mer responsible: Ambassador Ancano, Muril, and Amuril Malcior. They intend to make an example of these three would-be warmongers, but there's just one small, minor, tiny complication in the Thalmor's plans. One they're not aware of.
Amuril is the Last Dragonborn's husband.

The Girl Who Talks to Martin Septim by Aetherius

Summary
It is Sun's Dawn of 181. Six years after the signing of the White-Gold Concordat that ended the Great War between the Third Empire and the Aldmeri Dominion. Six months after the Treaty of Stros M'Kai that ended the war between the Aldmeri Dominion and the now independent if ravaged Hammerfell.
And Amuril Malcior is tired, so tired...
He joined the Thalmor so he could save someone - anyone - and atone to himself for being the only survivor of Rhuusa Gau. He spares those he can from the Thalmor's dungeons in Imperial City, but there are always more brought in by the other Justiciars, and he has to believe his work means something: that's the only way he can stay sane. His secret life is threatened when one of the Thalmor inquisitors learns what he's been doing when no one's watching, but maybe...
Maybe if he can save her, it will be enough.

Summary
Songs from A Dream of Dragons (and other works) in their entirety. I have a few characters who are bards, or for whom songs are an integral part of their character.
That and sometimes I hear a song that I could tweak the lyrics for and make it entirely a Elder Scrolls thing :p

Summary
John Hammond is sure that Jurassic Park is ready to host its first guests, Robert Muldoon disagrees with this sentiment wholeheartedly especially after the worker incident. He advocates the experts be brought in so that maybe John will finally do the right thing.
Meanwhile Ian Malcolm has always preached that a system at the Edge of Chaos is in constant flux and one little tip in either direction of Order or Chaos will bring an entire system crashing to it knees. Little does he know he's about witness this concept playout right in front of him.

Summary
When Clark's mother sat him down one late winter's evening to explain just how different he really was, he realised that his soulmate most likely lay in the stardust haloed around what was once his planet. In the end, that was just another thing that told him he was alone.
When he met Lois, he began to believe that maybe he wouldn't be alone, because she was perfect. She was everything he could ever want.
Then Bruce Wayne said his words.
