    Summary

    Helena Potter had never been a particularly lucky person - her entire life story was more than enough proof of that. Everything that had ever happened to her had been a sign of truly bad luck, of the forces of the universe pointing their fingers at her just to laugh at her and her misfortune. She had lost her parents, she had lost friends, she had lost her godfather and her surrogate uncle and she had more than once been close to losing her life as well.
    She had lost her life, actually.
    Yet, somehow, this situation was so, so much worse than anything she had ever been forced to face before. Whoever thought it to be a good idea to make her deal with a goblin rebellion when she couldn't even deal with the Gringotts goblins of her own time?!

    Or: a complete retelling of the Hogwarts: Legacy story with a female, time travelling Harry Potter in the role of the Player Character.

    Summary

    Book One: Legacy of Pain (29/29 chapters) - complete

    Anne's malady is a curse, is it not? The newest Ravenclaw is not so sure. When all else fails, her Muggle upbringing provides a yet unexplored pathway. After all, the simplest explanation, however improbable, must be correct.

    If only it were as simple to fix it.

    Doubly so when balancing an unorthodox relationship with the solemn duty of a heritor of ancient magic and the seductive whisper of the Dark Arts, the shadow of death looming over them all does not make it any easier.

    Book Two: A Goddess Bound (11/11 chapters) - complete

    Book Three: Tempered, Quenched, Hardened (27/27 chapters) - complete

    Book Four: Bloodbonds (33/33 chapters) - complete

    Will add an epilogue later.

    Summary

    After the trip to Buckingham Palace, Sherlock finds out that maybe John's family background was different than he'd thought.

    A series of AUs where ONE fact gets changed and then everything else changes in its wake--all while keeping as much canon-compliance as possible (army doctor, invalided home, alcoholic sister, crime-solving with Sherlock). Most of them more or less take place between the Great Game and the ASIB Christmas party. Each can be read on its own, but (if only to keep track of my thought process) it's probably helpful to read them in sequence.

    Summary

    Balancing the tightrope that was mortality and divinity, Percy Jackson could barely just cope with a life that didn’t seem his anymore. Stuck on his promises to his love in Tartarus, Percy keeps that part of him shut. But repression was never a good idea, and an unexpected quest from Triton of all gods culminates in a failed ascension and a deeper understanding of his powers than Percy had ever dared.

    Or, Triton, a godly quest and an ascension that Percy unknowingly keeps on refusing, makes the recipe to an almost perfect match for a Greek tragedy. Almost.

    Summary

    Dream had become so used to his sister's smile, her warmth, that he could not imagine life without her. But just like Dream dreamed, and Desired had desires, Death could die. And so she did, moving on while he was imprisoned and leaving a familiar replacement to continue on with her work. But it wasn't just losing her that hurt the most. It was learning that all of his siblings knew and none of them reached out to warn him. Instead leaving him to find out when he was at his lowest, stuck feeding some pigeons and looking for a face that had long since passed.

    When Hob had walked into that pub in 1389 he didn't know he was being set up as a replacement. Didn't even know of the arrangement until she sat at his table in 1989. He, eventually, understood. Life was beautiful and ever changing, but it was also heavy. And grew heavier still when carrying the weight of others. They will be fine, he promised. The family. The whole world. Every living thing. It would all be fine.

    Rest now, he said, I'll take it from here.

    Summary

    In most universes, two old gods attack the Dreaming toward the beginning of the universe. Dream asks his siblings for help and only Desire answers, by sending Alinora.

    (She breaks his heart eventually and he becomes that much more wary of love.)

    In this universe, not even Desire sends aid.

    The old gods shred the Dreaming.

    (Except the Dreaming is a manifestation of Dream’s mind.)

    (Dream’s howls of agony echo through the cosmos.)

    (By the time his siblings change their minds it is too late.)

    or:

    ”Why won’t Dream come to family dinner?” Delusion asks at a family dinner, drawing shapes in his food with a fork.

    Summary

    When Dream escapes his capture after more than 100 years - he seeks out Hob Gadling, only to not find him anywhere. Believing Hob wants nothing more to do with him, and with their meeting place destroyed, Dream returns to the Dreaming, despondent.

    What Dream does not know - Hob Gadling contracted The Sleeping Sickness, and after not perishing, was captured to be experimented on and tortured.

    When Dream finds out - he stops at nothing to not only deliver revenge on those who hurt his friend (and more, so much more), but Torment.

    Summary

    “I warned you, Robert Gadling,” the Stranger hisses. “Against keeping others in bondage.”
    “And I listened,” Hob gasps. The hand on his throat tightens. “Slavery’s illegal, mate. For centuries.”

    -

    in which erasmus fry needed to die, the damsel is saved, and hob gadling has no earthy idea how he wound up with a goddess bound to him.

    (aka, the "hob saves calliope" trope with a twist.)

    Summary

    Dream has seen many more miracles than Hob. He created new realities, met angels, demons, gods and other creatures that mortals called supernatural. Dream was born almost at the very beginning of the Universe and will die with its end only a little earlier than Death herself.
    And Hob Gadling fascinated him more than the thousands of worlds Dream had created and destroyed in his long and endless life.

    Or Dream introduces Hob to his kingdom and its inhabitants.

Unfortunately, thanks to a paparazzi photo, the world thinks he's dating Johnny Storm, and the villainous population of New York has its eyes set on Peter Parker.

    ...
    Or, Peter Parker is kidnapped too many times to count, and Johnny kind of likes the photographer who can never stay out of danger's path.
