Summary
"Don't you get it, Granger? I can't. I can't hurt someone who wears your face. And we're trapped here until we find a way out."
Hermione takes Draco Malfoy in as her ward so that he doesn't have to stay in Azkaban. Naturally, things won't be easy. Draco's a shell of the boy she knew growing up. To make matters worse, they all get their letters to return to Hogwarts to complete their schooling and someone, or someTHING, is trying to hurt them both.
Featuring Draco needing healing from all the trauma, Hermione being oblivious yet still a bad-ass, Ron being an abusive piece of shit, and Harry is just done.

Summary
From my blood comes the prince that was promised to bring the Dawn.
Some say seven are the hells and seven the heavens. Other says there is only one hell, and it's the one we live in.
All Sansa could think of as snow twirled and the wind howled around her was that her lips were blue by the cold, her hands were puffy and red, slowly becoming livid at the fingertips and even the ember of the Heart Tree had turned to frost as the words on her lips.
—
Pale. The woman was pale, unresponsive as the Maester busied himself at her bedside. The only spark of color was the red of her matted hair. He wondered which color her eyes were.
Sapphires. Her eyes were the color of sapphires.

Summary
It was a redhead human male swathed in what looked like six layers of dark lace and silk. The outlandish costume ballooned around him, and as Fox reluctantly got to his feet, he spotted the long train that dragged on the gleaming floor beneath them. Fox peered down at his datapad.
“You must be the new Naboo senator,” He deduced in the silence.
The man ran a distracted hand over his neat facial hair and replied somewhat sardonically, “how could you tell?”

Summary
When Helix had first found out about Melidaan, a lot of his General's habits slotted neatly into place. Like a broken bone that healed wrong, he'd called it. All he could do was try and mitigate the damage.
(And if he'd wished, sometimes, that he could have been there earlier, so he could have done something, so he could have helped, well-)
Now, there is a child in his medbay, looking up at him with wary eyes. Carefully, gently, he crouches, so as not to loom. Offers him a smile.
"Hi, Ben."
Or:
It's hard to ignore your trauma when it's staring you in the face, isn't it?
Or:
In which Helix accidentally-on-purpose adopts a kid, Ben reckons with the future, and Qui-Gon is trying to figure out how he managed to piss off an army.

Summary
[Time passes oddly. Between one second and the next, Sokka has the Fire Lord pinned to the wall with his hands around the bastard’s throat. Golden eyes (one gold eye, his mind whispers) widen in shock.
“Sokka?” he chokes out. And then he smiles.
What the fuck?
“Sokka, I—”
Sokka slams his head against the wall, once, twice, and the smile wipes off his face. Good.
“What,” Sokka bites out, “have you done to my sister?”]
Or:
An injury leaves Sokka with amnesia. His last memory is of the failed invasion, of leaving his father behind in enemy territory on the Day of Black Sun. Of hopelessness. Rage.
But then he wakes up, and the war is over. Suddenly, he must come to terms with the fact that years have passed, and that he's somehow the Southern Water Tribe Ambassador to the Fire Nation. He is also supposedly friends with banished-Prince-turned-Fire-Lord Zuko, of all people. Close friends.
Yeah, nah.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

Summary
"I dance in dangerous fables, walk a woods with trees white as bone. It's always winter and I'm always pressing my face against something warm with blood." - Yasmin Belkhyr, 'Blizzard'.
“Men die,” Barbrey tells her, bone-white with anger, eyes flashing. “Men die, Donella. Should Stark’s boy not sire a son on you, and if the Bastard has the Dreadfort-,”
“You speak as if Robb Stark were in fragile health,” Nell rolls her eyes. “You’re being paranoid.”
“Willam was in excellent health until he rode off to his death at Ned Stark’s side,” Barbrey hisses. “Do you think he did not promise me we would have children and a long life together before he left? Do you think he did not promise to come back to me? You cannot know what the future might bring. My lord husband survived a war only to die in Dorne. Men and their promises are not your safety nor your refuge. Land is. Power is. Never forget that.”
(In which Nell Bolton contends with both her mother's bloodstained legacy and her father's bloodthirsty bastard, and along the way claims a beast for a bridegroom.)

Summary
(Even when I can't see it) - Brianna Albers
Jaime Lannister is still grinning that false grin at her. Berena stares at him, almost stricken, wishing he’d stop it, and his green eyes flicker like flames and then burn colder. “You can’t imagine how pleased I am to finally meet my bride.”
This is not directed at her, but at Ned. She’s not even worth the direct acknowledgement, apparently. This is between them. He loathes Ned- likely for calling for his head for treason and successfully stripping him of his position- and this is the best blow he can strike. You named me a Kingslayer, but it will be your little sister, your honorable flesh and blood, in my bed, Stark.
She can feel Ned tense, and unthinkingly, reaches back and grabs his arm without looking at him. “And I,” Berena lies sweetly, shrilly, and with eyes hard as stone, “am so pleased to finally meet my bridegroom, my lord. They speak of you and your valiant deeds from here to the Wall.”
