    Summary

    “It’s 1976,” Petunia breathed as she brushed a finger at the date on the Woman’s Own magazine. "It’s 1976, a good 15 years before I was even conceived. I’m in the London Hospital, an ocean away from where I was born. And my soul is in the body of a woman named Petunia Evans. Does that mean Petunia’s soul is in my body? Or is she dormant, sleeping, inside this one?" A shiver of terror ran through her. "Or is she dead?"

    Petunia Evans was her name now. And she had a sister that needed saving, and a future nephew that needed spoiling. Hopefully she could create a timeline which consisted of both?

    Summary

    Solas was not idle after he took Evelyn's arm and left her at Halamshiral. He led the elves in a bloody war to reclaim the Dales, chasing the Orlesians from the rightful land of the elves in less than a year. Though he no longer plans to sunder the Veil and destroy the world he does still need to do something to encourage peace with the human nations. This is why he asks Evelyn Trevelyan to marry him, the woman whom he's probably hurt the most throughout all of this.

    Political marriages aren't a new thing but a political marriage between an ancient elf who was once worshipped as a god and a human woman whom he crippled and once thought of as less than a shadow is not something anyone saw coming. Both parties will have to learn about each other's culture, traditions, and life. However that all seems easy when compared to the idea of ever finding happiness with each other after everything that has happened.

    Summary

    Fiammetta De Riva, the Little Flame of Treviso, has a tarnished reputation, an impossible legacy to live up to, and a complicated relationship with House Dellamorte.

    Now living under the alias “Rook” after being recrutied by Varric Tethras, she is forced to request aid from her cousin Viago and the Antivan Crows against an impossible adversary that threatens Thedas. But her old life begins to complicate her current ambitions when she rescues an old acquaintance-turned-abomination, Lucanis Dellamorte.

    Soon, Rook must reckon with the legacy she’s abandoned, resentment that has festered for a lifetime, a fractured relationship with her older cousin, and feelings for the Demon of Vyrantium that have her walking dangerously close to the edge.

    Summary

    When Emma Smith went to England, she expected to be spending her month working on her dissertation - not falling through barrows, joining hobbits on a quest, and getting a shake-down by the heir of Isildur. No one ever said a PhD was easy.

    Summary

    When Daemon Targaryen claims his bastard daughter, Maelyra, born from a pirate captain he took for a lover in his time as King of the Narrow Sea, it’s not to raise her in court and gown her in dresses. That’s for his trueborn daughters, Baela and Rhaena. No, Lyra, the child of a fallen Tyroshi pirate captain, possesses too many skills Daemon can use in his strategies and plots, as he senses building strife between the courts of Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra. He needs a spy, an assassin, and a dragonrider no one expects, so he brings his bastard into the household of Driftmark, disguised as nothing more than a foreign serving girl.

    Lyra grows up between Driftmark, the Red Keep, and Dragonstone in the events leading up to the Dance, and as tensions rise, her loyalties are tested, especially when she finds herself caring for someone who may bring doom upon those she calls kin.

    (Basically all of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s kids have a secret older sister who will smother them with eldest sister energy in all events leading up and into the Dance. Also slow burn friends-to-enemies-to-secret-third-thing between female OC/Aemond.)
