    Summary

    Merzost has muddled the boundaries of time, and now everything seems to repeat. The same story keeps wanting to be told.

    In one timeline Alina marries Nikolai and becomes queen of Ravka, but in another, she’s only just been brought to the Little Palace following the discovery of her powers. Neither timeline is as it should be.

    Summary

    Joli is rapidly losing the ability to begin a conversation with her colleague in a way that doesn’t start with the words “I’m worried about…”. She knew what she was getting into when making it her life’s goal to give the kids in the city a better life than the half of her family that had survived their third resettlement had. She spends a lot of time fretting about things, it’s ostensibly what she’s best at, apart from speaking four languages reasonably well and doing the voices when reading from a story book. It’s no wonder then, that the first thing she says while she and Aim are fixing up the rumbling generator with duct tape and a prayer is “I’m worried about Nona.”

    OR

    Five times Nona and Joli were having two completely different conversations at the same time, and one time all the cards are laid on the table.

    Summary

    After the end of the Man who became God, After Alecto has laid herself to rest, Harrow and Kiriona have resigned themselves to death in each others arms. When death doesn't come for either of them, they have to contend with a far more painful reality: Having to survive, to live, to heal from what has been done to them, and what they have done to one another.

    Summary

    Harrowhark claimed not to think of Griddle. Whenever that proved a lie, she let frustration dig in like cuffs tighter than the one blistering Griddle's ankle. Still, each morning she as brushed her teeth, she anticipated using them to trade scowls and bites with Drearburh’s only other child.

    What if Gideon didn't tattle about Harrow entering the Tomb? What if Priamhark's and Pelleamena's survival made Harrow’s and Gideon’s lives much worse?

    What if Harrow couldn't handle when this led God to take Gideon away from her?

    Summary

    “Gideon,” Paul says, “will you come with us?”

    Before she can respond, Harrow says sharply, “Gideon’s dead.”

    “Oh, yeah, I’m super dead. No need to let that stand in the way of our tearful reunion,” Gideon sneers. “Jackass.”

    Nona is returned to the tomb before Alecto can awaken. Harrow's soul returns to its rightful home; and, for the first time since Canaan House, she and Gideon have a chance to talk.

    “What is it, Ortus?” Harrow asked, her pinched face twisted in a scowl. “I’m very busy.”

    “Forgive me, my Lady,” Ortus said, never taking his hand away from the doorknob. “I did not see you at the summons.”

    “A summons?” Harrow frowned deeper, wrinkling her nose in distaste. “Is that what that was?”

    “Yes, my Lady,” Ortus wheezed, shifting uncomfortably. “I only thought you should know… Gideon Nav was flogged before the congregation.”

    Summary

    Gideon had always insisted that she was never scared of Harrowhark. Throughout all of their years at each others’ throats, Gideon maintained that it would have been laughably simple to break her spindly necromancer’s bird-boned body over one knee. But despite her determined bravado and her habit of laughing in the face of death (or in the face of the Reverend Daughter, which was about the same thing), some unshakeable part of Gideon couldn’t help but feel the cold knife of fear press into her lungs whenever she was reminded of Harrowhark’s ire.

    Or: 5 times Gideon was scared of Harrow, and 1 time Harrow was scared of Gideon.

    Summary

    When the time comes, it's almost… anticlimactic. The knife goes in, the blood comes out, the baby dies. And the rock remains unmoved.

    But just as Wake raises her pistol to the soft underside of her jaw, she hears an infant's mewling cry.

    (or: what if Wake survived long enough to bring her newborn baby to Tomb, and killed her. and then the baby didn't die.)

    Summary

    A clash in the Time Room in the Department of Mysteries sends Hermione back in time thirty-three years, from 1996 to 1963. There, she's forced to contend with a drastically different pre-war Wizarding World where blood-based prejudice and rigid class structures rule the day, and maybe worse, Bellatrix Black as a classmate. But getting involved with Bellatrix Black in any capacity means dealing with her family's problems, too.

    Summary

    "How did you lose it?" Coronabeth asked, more softly than her sister's shrill voice. The group assembled at Canaan House barely knew her, and yet here they were, asking the most irritatingly personal questions, and acting as if they were being kind and thoughtful by prying into her secrets.

    "I dropped my pen into a vat of acid and reached in to grab it without thinking," Harrow said dryly.

    Coronabeth recoiled, screwing up her pretty nose. Ianthe looked unsure whether to believe her or not. Their meatslab of cavalier just stared blankly.

    "The Daughter of the Ninth House was blessed in this manner from her birth, as a symbol of her strength and power over the mysteries of necromancy," Ortus interjected. Harrow glared at him.

    "Oh," Coronabeth said, an expression of disgusting sympathy on her flawless face. "But then you would never have known who your soulmate was!"

    Harrow's glare intensified. "My soulmate is bones."

    Summary

    In Drearbrurh, the sight of a sword to Gideon’s head or a hand around her throat might have been cause for celebration. Hell, had Harrow both the opportunity and spine for it, she might have driven the sword through Gideon’s skull herself, an effective solution to the countless problems wrapped up in Gideon’s sloppy robes and sloppier face paint. Instead, Harrow pressed her outstretched hand into that vulnerable place at the base of Gideon’s skull, digging her fingers in tight to prevent them from lashing out.

    Her own voice came unexpectedly, rising from some unknown depth. Harrow said, “Your cavalier drew on my cavalier.”

    A Gideon the Ninth Chapter 7 rewrite, written from Harrow’s POV, because I am obsessed with this scene.
