Summary
He has lived among humans for years without difficulty, yet her presence unsettles him in a manner he cannot explain. Her scent, he thinks, clings to the very fabric of his cotton shirt. It swirls and settles in the marrow of his bones, sweet enough to make the careful restraint he thought he knew well tenuous as a thread, and dangerously breakable.
Margaret Hale ought to be nothing more than another face in his mill, another heartbeat among hundreds. And yet John Thornton finds himself listening for hers.
_____
A semi-canon-compliant North and South retelling, except John is a vampire... and Margaret wonders why he stares at her so intently.

Summary
"Stop." Poseidon can't tell whose voice uttered that plea, but it feels raw in a way that is too vulnerable for a god to relate to. And yet, as he watches his son literally being crushed by the sky, there is nothing more he can ask for.
Percy blinks once. Slow. Deliberate. His eyes stay green. Steady. Stubborn.
He had once told Percy that the sea does not like to be contained. Right now, in this moment, Poseidon feels as if he is looking into the very heart of the ocean and its tide is refusing to break.

Summary
When raids along the Constant Sea threaten Araluen’s trade, King Duncan sends Halt, Will, Gilan, and Horace to investigate. Their mission leads them to Rhaevar, a distant kingdom of monsoon jungles, spice markets, and dangerous secrets.
There, Halt finds more than he expected: a young minstrel named Kara, whose face is one of a familiar ghost.
A fighter who moves too well to be a commoner.
A girl with his sister’s eyes.Kara of Rhaevar has built a life out of shadows. By day, she sings to survive. By night, she's a masked thief who robs the corrupt and vanishes into the darkness. But when her path collides with Araluen’s Rangers, old wounds and new dangers rise together, pulling them into a conspiracy that reaches far beyond the border raids.
And as the group uncovers the truth behind the raids, they find Rhaevar’s corruption runs deeper than trade… and that some debts aren’t paid in gold.
_______________In short: What if Halt's niece was Robin Hood? What if the Rangers walked into more than politics? And what if family was the most dangerous secret of all?

Summary
After one too many gloomy missions, Will decides that Halt hasn’t laughed in years... and that this is a crisis. Horace, being a terrible influence, agrees to help.
Thus begins an entirely ill-advised campaign of pranks, bad jokes, and creative near-death experiences, all in the name of getting Halt to crack a smile.
Halt, meanwhile, is simply trying to survive his apprentices’ stupidity with dignity intact.
Coffee is spilled. A horse is implicated. Somewhere, Crowley places bets.Basically a funny short story of biblically accurate Will, Halt and Horace.
