A Physics Student In Middle-earth by Kaylio

Summary
The intention was to wake up at five so I could do some physics cramming before finals (which was in three days). Somehow that became stumbling into Rivendell, because apparently the world doesn’t care that I needed to revise (for the finals. Which was in three days.) Like, I mean, it’s nice, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but seriously. I can’t afford to fail my exams. (Which was in three days.)
Have I mentioned I have an exam yet? Because I do. And I really cannot afford to fail it. But alas...

Summary
Random stuff that got written but isn't likely to get continued, or got written and is complete in itself, or got written and then the muse upped and left. Mostly AU, might have crack and time travel and all the other non-canon-y bits.

Summary
littlebastardreviews posted the collected facts from the 2014 UK Editions of Harry Potter: and this fact caught my eye.
'Only one non-magical person has ever managed to get as far as the Hogwarts Sorting Hat before being exposed as a Squib.'
But, gosh it just makes me want a story where a squib did make it through. So here's a drabble about a squib with a quick mind and a hand-me-down wand, who refuses to be denied her birthright.
--
when the hat drops over her eyes it asks, 'well what do we have here?'
she’s got a forged hogwarts letter with penmanship that’s perfect down to the ink splatter;
she’s got a complicated string of owls, only half of them forged, from parents to administration to ministry that’s so complicated her name ended up on the first year roll call anyway.
she’s got ten arguments, four pleas, and one smothered threat on the tip of her mental tongue for why the house that comes out of this hat’s brim better not be 'squib'
she’s got a lighter up her sleeve and an eight and a half inch wand in her belt that will never, ever work for her.
'well,' says the hat, 'better be slytherin then'

Summary
"The sorrow birds find what is weak, my chest, beak-marked, my eyes long gone." - Ann V. Devilbiss
Lily Potter is dead.
No.
Lily Potter should be dead.
The cheerful little owl clock on top of the dresser hesitates, then ticks onward. The baby in the crib sucks in another eager breath, and wails anew. The dead girl on the floor- the should be dead girl on the floor- opens her eyes.
(Lily lives, but sometimes wishes she hadn’t.)

Summary
(I am the one who says 'fuck you') - Benjamin Garcia, 'Ode to the Corpse Flower'.
Petunia drips magic the way she drips anger. Sparingly. Subtly. Nothing overt or obnoxious. Nothing that attracts the stares of other children or the suspicion of adults. Just things that help her. Her dolls line back up after the football Lily was kicking about ruins their perfect symmetry. Her bed makes itself while she brushes her teeth meticulously. Tea that is slightly too hot or too cold settles to the perfect temperature. Magic maintains the realm of order she has built around herself.
(A witch!Petunia and muggle!Lily AU, covering the Marauders' years at Hogwarts and the First Wizarding War).
