    Summary

    At age fourteen, Katsuki Yuuri had been determined to be Japan's next great figure skating hope, but with no coach that would never happen, so his ballet instructor packs him up off to Russia to train with Yakov Feltsman. The Yakov Feltsman, otherwise known as the coach to rising figure skating star -- and Yuuri's idol -- Viktor Nikiforov.

    From the rinks of Yubileyny Sports Palace in St Petersburg to the bustling city of Osaka and quieter Michigan suburbs, Yuuri chases his dream of skating against his idol and improbable best friend, getting tripped up along the way because growing up is never easy and it's even harder as an elite athlete with the eyes of a nation watching. But it'll all be fine as long as Yuuri doesn't do something stupid like fall in love with Viktor. Right? Right.

    (It occurred to me that I should say that the title is not a typo. It's purposely "bear" as in "to carry".)

    Summary

    This series follows the many adventures of Toni Stark.

    The Limitations of Wax is the main and still ongoing story in the series.

    The other stories in the series are AU's and what-if scenarios that can be read in any order and have little to no impact on the main storyline.

    I advise that you start with LoW and then move from there, reading what AUs intrigue you as you go.

    Summary

    Peter Pettigrew is the poster-boy for disaster-preparedness. When Sirius Black breaks into Hogwarts in 1993, Peter decides to put his backup plan into action. He kidnaps Harry Potter, intending to use the boy to barter his way back into the Dark Lord's good graces. But holding a hostage while trying to track down a sentient shade is logistically tricky, and he begins to lose his grip.

    OR:

    Harry goes to sleep one night and when he wakes, he's tied up in a strange room with a strange man who is most certainly not Sirius Black. He's endured who knows how many curses, Dumbledore's not coming to his rescue, and there's a grisly looking dog that either wants to eat him or befriend him. And a rat that most definitely wants to eat him.

    OR:

    Neville is determined to help his friend recover from a terrible and mysterious ordeal. He'll do whatever it takes, but he will not leave Harry to languish in the Janus Thickey Ward.
