Summary
The storm of war has finally passed, and the Dark Lord is gone. For Petunia and her chosen family, surviving the war was hard enough – but peacetime has presented new challenges to them all: The Evans sisters have a business to get off the ground. Regulus and Alastor have to find a way to balance their love life and their work life. Severus has to find his way as a new professor with students not much younger than himself. And the remaining Marauders must come to terms with their actions and the betrayal that almost destroyed them all.
As the adults try to navigate the ups and downs of their post-war lives, the children of the war spend their days blissfully unaware. All Harry, Ethan, and Neville want to do is play and explore together – but there are many important things for them to learn about themselves and the magical world around them before they head off to Hogwarts someday.
Set in the immediate aftermath of the First Wizarding War as established in Flowers by the Wayside and carrying through till September 1991 when the Boy Who Lived, his cousin who shouldn’t exist, and The Boy Who Almost Was will take their first steps towards destiny, to one day pick up the fight that their parents began.

Summary
After her husband is unfaithful and her cookie-cutter perfect world is turned on its head, Petunia Evans Dursley finds herself in her old hometown, full of regrets and feeling that her life has been without purpose. Before she can quietly take her own life, she is given an impossible offer by a long-dead figure from the magical world: return to the past, and rewrite her own history. Seeing it as a chance to make up for her biggest regret, Petunia accepts and finds herself in the middle of a Wizarding war she knew little about, protecting the younger sister she tried to forget by seeking help from the one person in the magical world she knows how to find.
A what-if story beginning in the latter years of the first war against Voldemort, where an unlikely alliance turns into an even more unlikely romance, and the bonds that bloom from it will change the course of Wizarding history.

Summary
For a crash course in kinky knife play, this probably isn't what Jason had in mind.
For a crash course in anything at all, he wouldn't be thinking of Slade Wilson.

Summary
Hermes, being Maia’s kid, does a fair shake better in the Underworld than any other Olympian Charon’s ever had the misfortune of needing to work with. He also, being Maia’s kid, understands the rules down here are older and much, much less forgiving than the one’s up top.
Which is why Hermes pays Asterius’ fare.
It’s a little thing, but it sticks with Charon. Olympians aren’t very generous usually. Don’t seem to really get what it means.

Summary
Thanatos' heart lies outside his body.
Styx takes Zagreus’ pieces from Thanatos’ grasp and makes him whole once more. It takes longer than he thinks it ought, for flesh to knit and soul to settle into its place; for the woven multicolored thread of Zagreus’ life to be re-spun, knotted over like scar tissue, and the next first beat of Zagreus’ heart to resound in Thanatos’ breast.

Summary
When someone sits across from Jason, he hardly notices he’s so absorbed in the pages before him. But he notices when a hand reaches for the sugar next to him, and then he looks up, and he’s so shocked he can’t think of a single thing to say.
“Jason,” Bruce says evenly. Jason just stares.
(Or: Bruce and Jason attempt to mend their relationship in the immediate aftermath of Under the Red Hood, one meeting at a time.)
