    A canary and a coal mine find love in the dark, but the past can't stay hidden forever.

    Summary

    Things are just like they used to be.

    When the Sorting Hat talked about the four pillars that held up Hogwarts, it was being more than metaphorical. The Hogwarts Four first lay down the foundation of Hogwarts by each erecting a pillar in the four corners of a rectangle by hand, fashioned from the stone of each particular founder's home. Of course magic and house-elves were used to complete the rest.

    The day after Salazar Slytherin left, the column that he erected crumbled mysteriously into four pieces, and it was Rowena, always exasperated with Godric's and Salazar's rivalry, who waved her hand in an irritated manner as she re-erected the pillar with an, "Honestly, Godric."

    Summary

    He just wanted to be alone. 

    But he hasn’t had that luxury for a long, long time. Stratt’s people always know where he is. It is the nature of being part of a classified project. Assets don't get to just wander away whenever they feel like it. 

    So, really, it is the illusion of privacy he finds on the rooftop. Alone with his looming demons.

    Or a short story based entirely on that two-second scene in the movie showing Grace in his raincoat on the roof.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.
