Summary
Argus' life was a largely thankless one (unless you counted the thanks of the paintings he maintained), working on keeping a thousand year old castle from falling down around the ears of students who didn't care. He had his cat, his work, his books, and a constant boil of self hatred and resentment to get him by.
And then a sixth year handed him a letter from her aunt, thanking him for acting as conservator of Hogwarts and calling him Dr. Filch. It was the first time he had been called Doctor since he started at the castle. He had little choice but to write back, after that.

Summary
“Fewer than 400 families are responsible for almost half the money raised in the 2016 presidential campaign, a concentration of political donors that is unprecedented in the modern era” (New York Times, August 2015).
Bruce Wayne, who is a billionaire with six children begging him not to let the Zodiac Killer or an Angry Orange make it into office, is an outlier and should not be counted.

Summary
The shadow is a silhouette on the edge of the roof. She can’t see his eyes behind the blank white lenses of his cowl, but she can feel the cunning weight of his gaze as it rakes over her, a pair of predators recognizing one another. She keeps her posture relaxed. She looks back at him with steady eyes.
She is not prey.
She will not allow the kind boy behind her to be prey either.

Summary
It's been about a year since Foxcry struck out on her own. As a young alpha, she's spent most of that time establishing her territory and building her den. Life in the valley isn't necessarily easy, or peaceful, but it's good. Even if she's spent most of that time alone. No mate, no clan to call her own.
At least, until someone appears in her territory. Bleeding, injured, in desperate need of aid. And he just so happens to be another alpha.

Summary
Sakura is twelve when she queues up in front a desk with a bunch of other equally-terrified looking shinobi. The ages range from younger than her to old enough to be her grandpa.
The man sitting at the desk is stony-faced as he doles out assignments. Sakura obediently shuffles forward when it is her turn, and recites her shinobi identification number in a shaky voice when asked.
When the provost marshal looks at her, looks down at his paper, looks back at her, and grimaces, Sakura knows it’s not going to be good.
or
How Sakura survives the war, told in bits and pieces.

Summary
“About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”
“Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”
“Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”
“Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”
*
Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

Summary
For a prompt from Fascinationex: “ninja are meant to be able bodied, but plenty of them grow to experience chronic injuries and illnesses due to the nature of their work. exposure to poisons and dodgy joints are common, for example. a lot of medicine and man hours go into keeping good ninja in working order -- but when a ninja becomes a missing-nin, she starts having to deal with these problems independently. and that's when problems arise.”
In Mist, you fought until you couldn’t, and then you got a desk job. Unfortunately “desk job” doesn’t translate well into “missing-nin.”

Summary
“I don’t know… if I believe in heroes… especially after… your story,” he says. “But when I was… in the laboratory… I often wished… that a hero… would come save me.”
She twists her lips wryly, and says without thinking, “And instead, they put you in another cage.”
Lady Nagant may be a failure of a hero and a failure of a human being, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before she lets that be the reason for failing the kid in the neighboring cell.

“A week ago,” she repeats. “I was in… Germany, right? You mean the skinny guy with white hair?”
Naoya finds his words faltering in the face of her absolute indifference. “What—are ya livin’ under a rock or something?” he demands. “You don’t even know who Gojo Satoru is?”
—/—/—I do not give permission to use my work with any form of AI, in any way at all. That should be obvious without this statement, but apparently this is the world we live in.

Summary
They make it to the turbolift, Qui-Gon’s lips downturned as he notices a rather large dent in one of its metal doors, almost like someone had run headfirst into it. “I still don’t see what all the fuss is about.”
Yoda grumbles under his breath and steps onto the lift as it chimes its greeting. “Aware I am, that the root of the problem that may be.”
Qui-Gon ponders the elder Jedi’s words as they descend the tower, deciding to ask his grandmaster to explain further, but the words die in his throat as the doors slide open to full pandemonium.
---
News reaches the temple that Qui-Gon has left his padawan behind on Melida/Daan, or more importantly; that Obi-Wan is in the market for a new master.
