Summary
Who on earth decided that bringing back the Yule Ball for their eighth year would be a good idea? It feels like the worst day of Harry’s life, watching everyone get glammed up like the war never happened, like the last Triwizard Tournament wasn’t such a colossal failure.
And then it happens again. And again. And again.

Summary
They go flying together, sometimes.
M’gann shows Kara the places she used to hide out, back when she first landed on Earth. Places that she uncovered over decades of wandering the planet, where Kara can go when everything gets too loud, where there aren’t any humans for hundreds of miles. The deepest, richest forests and the clearest oceans and brightest skies.
The last daughters of a cursed red planet and a dying red star, bathed in green and blue and gold.

on the reliability of surgical knots and sutures by illuminatedcities

Summary
Sameen finds clarity in the mechanics of surgery. It takes a well-placed ligature to stop the bleeding, a nudge of her finger on the instrument to cauterize a vessel. Cause and effect. Simple.

Summary
This is how Root meets god: she picks up a phone and there she is, that voice that will haunt all her dreams like a song. When the Machine talks to her, it's not like human speech, it's the flicker of morse code and a kaleidoscope of voices in her head. It's overwhelming, powerful. It's like crawling out of a dark place and seeing the sun for the first time.

10/10 beautiful Root perspective, poetic and absolutely visceral. In that I am eviscerated, currently.

Summary
It was in the eleventh year of the reign of King Harold the Wise when the trouble began. Tensions between the neighboring Kingdoms of Thornhill and Decima had reached a boiling point even as winter began to push in on the northern nations in earnest. As legend tells it, King Greer took a drastic step in an attempt to push the struggle his way. And though the old man eventually died for his trouble, he set the stage for one of the more colorful tales in Thornhill’s history…

“Goddamnit, Root. Did the Machine tell you to do this?”
“No, but she did tell me the probability you’d leave the handcuffs on. I liked the odds.”My (very extensive) take on the night at the CIA pick-up site during 3x06 ("Mors Praematura"). Mind the tags, ladies and gentlemen! ;)

Summary
Root is beautiful in the afternoon light, lithe and dark-eyed and soft; Shaw can recognize that easily, objectively, as she settles on her hips and smiles, her short nails raking along the sides of her ribcage, the sensitive skin prickling and tingling with awareness. “Who said I wanted to hold you?”
Or, five times Root and Shaw don't work their shit out and the one time they do.

Summary
University AU where Root and Shaw have been forced to work together to plan and run their school's engineering competition.
In no particular order, there will be: "oops I accidentally fell in love with you" Root, an excruciatingly slow build, jealous Shaw, jealous Root, donut thievery, eventual smut, backstories, nerdiness, things moving right along to the complex plane after the midpoint, and most importantly: cheesy science jokes! bad puns and corny jokes!

A series of strongly-opined Yelp reviews (which is really just an accidental series of journal entries about Shaw's non-dates with Root).
