    Summary

    Dumbledore doesn't make it in time for Harry's trial, and the outcome is very different. Harry is expelled, his wand snapped.

    But he refuses to give up. And he is done waiting around for Albus Dumbledore to give him information.

    Deciding to take his life into his own hands, Harry asks for training from several Order members, preparing himself to fight Voldemort while the whole wizarding world believes he's helpless and back in the muggle world.

    Meanwhile, his friends are at Hogwarts, tackling their own problems in the form of Dolores Umbridge. Harry hadn't expected the separation to be so difficult - or for a certain mischievous redhead to make the waiting game they'd entered into so very excruciating.

    He might have lost his home in Hogwarts, but with Sirius and Remus around, Harry begins to learn that rebuilding a family isn't as hard as he'd anticipated.

    You are not courageous. Your dreams have always been the bravest parts of you.

    Summary

    Ariel will not be sea foam or a queen. There is life beyond love. There is love in just living. Her true love will not be married on the morn--the prince will be married then, in glorious splendor, but he had never been why she was here.

    Ariel traded her voice for legs to stand on, a chance at another life. When she poked her head above the waves, it wasn't the handsome biped that she fell for. It was the way the hills rolled, golden in the sun. It was the clouds chasing each other across blue sky, like sea foam you could never reach.

    (She does reach it, one day, bouncing around in the back of a blacksmith's cart, signing jokes to him in between helping to tune his guitar. They crest up a high mountain pass and into the belly of a cloud. Her breath whistles out, swirls water droplets, and she reaches out a hand to touch the sky. Her feet will scream all her life, but after that morning they ache just a little bit less).

    Summary

    None of Bella's stories had ever told of the hard work of cleaning up a battle, there was no glory in it. But it was better to throw herself into the work than face the fact that she had very nearly lost the ones she loved, face the trauma of the battle, of the dragon sickness, of all the darkness that loomed over her shoulder. After all, tears were for when you were in privacy, and there was precious little of that when one was named regent for a grievously wounded king.

    Summary

    To say that Harry's fifth year at Hogwarts had turned out to be the most eventful to date is, despite past run-ins with giant spiders, basilisks, dragons and Voldemort himself, actually an understatement. As if breaking into the High Inquisitor's office to illegally floo into the Ministry of Magic and break inside the Department of Mysteries, only to be surrounded by Death Eaters, wasn't enough... Harry's whole world was literally turned upside-down when suddenly found himself in the wrong universe.
    Now back in his own universe with his family, and reunited with his Draco, Harry has barely got a moment to sigh with relief before the drama catches up with him. His and Draco’s relationship may have survived this ordeal, but will it survive a third wizarding war?

    Summary

    Sirius’s throat gains second life, the most pathetic noise coming out of it, and by mercy, Remus doesn’t hold it against him. A sobering thought creeps up his spine as he wonders why he'd ever think otherwise; if there was one person who would wholly understand that words can fall short, it'd be Remus.

    Summary

    In another life, Lily Evans Potter stood on these very floorboards and defied a wizard who scorned every fiber of her being. She was told to step aside—like a puppy or plaything, a prize for a loyal servant who had pleaded for her life—and she refused. She died for love, for a future she would never live to see.

    In this room, there was only Sirius Black, blood traitor, a wizard in whom Voldemort saw willful ignorance, betrayal, an unblemished pedigree, wasted potential. He was told to step aside—the Dark Lord believed that blood would out, that he could be won, a prize for a loyal servant who had pleaded for his life—and he refused. He died for love, for honor, for true friends who became his family when his flesh and blood disowned him.

    In a time of war, there are always men and women willing to die for love. There are few who look death in the eye, take the balance of their lives, and make the choice. There are few who are given the choice at all.

    The story of the Boy Who Lived does not begin on the night he did not die. His story begins decades earlier, in the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black.

    Summary

    As much as he might like to cut a natty figure in a proper waistcoat and trousers with a reasonable inseam, Bilbo knew there were many more important things to bother with at the moment.

    Rebuilding an entire dwarven kingdom, for one. And airing out the stink of dragon would be nice as well.

    Summary

    Elves were immortal, tied to the circles of Arda until the end of time and the Second Music. Only very few ever dared to love humans, whose quick-burning lives ended with a permanent separation - unless something extraordinary occurred. And only one ever dared love a dwarf.

    Something extraordinary occurred.
