Summary
Kara is at the end of her nursing shift when a violent man is brought in with an arrow wound. When he spits blood on her, Kara is transported elsewhere. Soon she's doing emergency wound care on book characters and trying not to lose it. She can't watch people suffer even if it isn't real, but Aragorn is very suspicious of a woman who tells no clear story and smells like an orc.
“Stranger things have happened than you or I have years to tell of it," Gandalf said. "Why does she unsettle you? Surely you do not feel threatened. I am tolerably certain you could defeat her if it came to violence.”
Aragorn scoffed at his gentle humor. “I’m glad to amuse you. There are more dangers than warriors and swords. Need I tell a wizard that?"
“I can assure you she is not evil and has not a whisper of magic.”
“Yet a beautiful woman appears directly in our path, leagues from civilization, and immediately gains the hobbits’ trust. No wizardry, you say?”
Kara was not *unhappy* at being called a beautiful woman (although his standards for human women, as opposed to elves, were probably low), but she was unhappy to be stuck eavesdropping. She’d seen this scene too many times in movies. They would definitely see her.- Language:

Summary
The true Time-Turner was slammed savagely into Hermione's throat. It shattered against her neck, bits of glass and gold piercing into her skin. The last thing she saw before blackness consumed her was a plume of metallic dust and vitreous fragments, tiny prisms dancing behind her eyelids.
(In which Hermione accidentally ends up in 1950, pitted against an ascending Dark Lord in his prime, caught in the entanglement of pureblood politics, dark magic, and Tom Riddle's interest)

Summary
There was nothing particularly remarkable about you. Average height, average smile, average brains.
Your cursed technique? Below average—and that wasn’t even mentioning your subpar cursed energy output.
But it didn’t matter, because you had comrades ready to stand by your side. Shoko, your best friend, always calm and cool. Yu, cheering you on when you were down. Utahime, the voice of reason. Nanami, Geto, Ijichi, Mei Mei—everyone.
And then there was Gojo.
Gojo and his bright blue eyes.
But Gojo didn’t settle. He didn’t go for ordinary. He didn’t spare a second thought for girls like you, who didn’t know their place, who wore big smiles and thick glasses, who couldn’t hide their feelings and clung to him. He didn’t give chances to naïve underclassmen who tried too hard.
And despite knowing better than to fall for his easy smiles, love wasn't really something you could pull the brake on.
