Summary
To some, names are a fleeting thought—a careless droplet of sound—amidst conversation.
To Shalom, names are a rationed luxury. Though her time with Paradeisos is over, the weight of a name still remains. Freedom, it seems, comes gradually rather than all at once.

Summary
As Bucky draped the flag over Sam with his own hands, a thought struck him—this is what death means: from this moment on, Sam would never again be there waiting for him. Not when he came home from his next mission, not when their family gathered around the dinner table. Never again.
The bugler was playing Amazing Grace. The riflemen fired their volleys. The wooden casket descended. His love was forever laid to rest in the land he had fought for.
He want to get back, back, back to Sam.
He thought even the bones would do.Series

Summary
“You really find me that unbearable?” Mavuika prods, unable to help the grin that tugs insistently at her lips. “Am I that much of a thorn in your side?”
“The worst,” Xilonen stresses, an ear flicking incessantly. “You're the actual worst.”
Her tail swishes between the inches where their hands almost meet, though; curls itself almost possessively around Mavuika’s wrist.
And despite it all—despite her inhuman strength, and inhuman feats, and inhuman lifetime—Mavuika is human at her core. Her gaze wanders down to where Xilonen’s tail rests, where their hands rest, so close. To where her own heart could rest, easily.
or, Natlan needs saving, and Mavuika and Xilonen convene during the moments between.

Because words were magic, because they only would come out when they had the right feel and sound, he couldn’t say simple things like: Dad, leave Harry alone for once or Hey, Amy, do you fancy coming out to dinner with me?

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.
