Summary
Another grunt. “How you livin’ out here on your own?” he asks again. As if he hadn’t eaten the freshly slaughtered rabbit, drank from the routinely boiled water, slept beneath the gathered and plentiful blankets.
As if the efforts of survival have not been inscribed along her very skin.
“I’m not a kid.”
They stare at a fire which burns without ceasing—at skeleton fragments and glass shards and a spoon, warped and curled in on itself. There are flames in Ellie’s throat. There is poison in her body. The pages of a Bible have long since burned away—like they were never intended to be permanent. Not like loss. Not like grief. Not like loneliness.
Or: Ellie and Joel don't find each other until after she's already burned Silver Lake, and all of its residents, to the ground.

Summary
AU where post-banishment Ahsoka gets zapped back to TPM, strapped with a fundamental distrust of the Jedi, an apocalyptic vision of the future, and a mandate to help Anakin Skywalker.
Yet, despite her belief that she rewrites the future, every move Tano makes was foretold with the first flickers of light in this universe. As she slides piece after piece across the cosmic board, it becomes increasingly obvious she works to a preordained script of someone else's design. But whose and why?

Summary
If blindness wasn’t enough for Ariadne Granger to deal with upon attending Hogwarts, being the transgender Girl Who Lived didn’t help matters.
Blind trans girl Harry Potter fic to spite JK Rowling’s TERF ass. Starts before Ariadne has even figured out she’s a girl and before she is rescued from the Dursleys.
Also, because people sometimes seem to think it is: this is not your tranny-approved ticket for a guilt-free Potter fix, don't get in my ear about how this makes you feel less guilty about engaging with the fandom. It's explicitly meant to critique Potter and its writer, and I am not a Harry Potter fan. It's just in the form of a story because that's what I'm good at. This is not a work of fandom, no highly esteemed story is commemorated here.

Summary
Yeah, so maybe Emma should get sick more often, because she's kind of enjoying it. Minus the gallons of tea Regina's pouring down her throat, of course.

Summary
“So, you’re their lab rat,” he said.
“I’m not a rat,” she said indignantly.
The disheveled ponytail, dirt stained clothes, bare feet, and the way she presently occupied the ground were doing a lot to counter her statement. But he knew a kid missing context when he saw one.
“They’re using you to run experiments to test their theories. They used to do that shit to rats Before,” he said.
Her expression twitched with what was surely the question of why but she shook her head dismissively and instead said, “I’m the only immune person they’ve found. They need to study me.”
“So,” he said with repeated emphasis. “You’re their lab rat.”
