    Summary

    Nana said something to him, once. He was having an angsty teenager phase, questioning why anyone was religious anyway, and she told him some people find meaning in religion because it helps them figure out how to understand the world. Hardison thinks about that.

    Sometime after Eliot and Moreau, and before Harry, Hardison starts going to services.

    or: an argument for canon-compliant Jewish Hardison

    Summary

    “Are you kidding me?” Daisy said. “Seriously, Phil?”

    Phil sighed. “I thought my howling wasteland of a love life was giving you a crisis.”

    “Well yeah, but I didn’t mean you should just go out with the first weirdo that asks,” she said. “That guy’s such a douche.”

    “I think he’s having trouble readjusting to civilian life,” Phil said. “It takes some people a while to get used to the relative lack of structure."

    This is an utterly adorable fanfic for a fandom I'm mostly not in, based on a prompt that I am very much here for, and it is delivered SO WELL! I love the extension and the worldbuilding and the gaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

    Summary

    This is a rationalist and effective altruist take on the Last Herald-Mage trilogy, inspired by HPMOR, r!Animorphs: The Reckoning, and other works. From a starting point of "what if the characters were trying to be reasonable?" and "what if Leareth was a human being with real, complex motivations, rather than a cartoon villain?" I am seeing where it goes.

    Meta note: this fic is accessible regardless of whether you’ve read canon. It starts out a little slow, and book 1 is kind of a different genre from book 2 onward. Additional warning that book 2 onward gets pretty dark and this doesn't really let up. There will be 11 volumes.

    Major themes include the complexity of thinking about ethics, the challenge of taking on problems in the world that seem insurmountable, and trying to do good while dealing with serious mental health issues. The characters do not start out masters of rationality, but they do learn from their mistakes and grow as people, and do their best to help support each other.

    I want to read this at some point, so I'm saving it in my bookmarks to hopefully do so later?

    Summary

    What followed was the most bizarre courtship Q had ever—well, heard of, certainly. He didn’t have much to compare it to, but Moneypenny confirmed that normal people didn’t flirt like this. Not that he was normal. Not that any of them were.

    Or: Q has a past, a cat, and a dangerous new boyfriend. Two of these things keep him up nights, the other pees in a box.
