    Summary

    harp (n.)
    "stringed musical instrument played with the fingers"
    Old English: hearpe
    from Proto-Germanic *harpon- (of uncertain origin)
    (*source also of Old Saxon harpa "instrument of torture"; Old Norse harpa; Dutch harp; Old High German harpfa; German Harfe)

    or: Harper wakes up in Middle-earth, and that quickly becomes the least of her problems.
    (the tenth walker fic I would have written if I'd gotten into lotr as a teenager, because it's never too late to indulge yourself.)

    Summary

    Jane Elizabeth Holney. Her full name. Jane stared at it on the envelope in front of her, sealed, for better or for worse, with her decision.

    So many things had led her here. Sauron, a Convergence, a Keeper, a ring, and the fate of the world cradled in the hands of a depressing few. And Elves, of course.

    Or—just one, if she wanted to be honest.

    Rain pattered against the large window, and Jane rested her head against the cool stone wall. The sound of the road and the birds singing, faintly, reached her ears as everyone slept.

    How would she be remembered, in the end? A threat to global security? A hero? A delusional, bare-brained scientist with a deathwish for the world?

    Did it matter?

    Summary

    Sunny Franklin’s last encounter with Batman ruined her life. Her first encounter with Red Hood might save it.

    Jason Todd's first chance at life was cut mercilessly short. He got a second chance at life, and blew it. Now, inexplicably, he has a third chance at life - one based on a lie he wishes he (and everyone else) didn't have to keep.
