    Summary

    On the first morning they wake up at lake LBJ, Alex overhears Henry talking to Pez, assuring him it's not really love between them. A cliff goes un-jumped, Rafael Luna enters the chat a little earlier, and Alex and Henry both think they mean less to each other than they do. Will they get through it, or will their relationship slip away into a moment in time?

    Summary

    “There are… certain forms of affection I can’t express in public,” Henry said finally, quieter now, his eyes not quite meeting Alex’s. “It’s just the way things are.”

    Alex held his gaze, heart pounding, pulse hot in his ears. He wanted to understand. He really did. But all he could feel in that moment was utter humiliation, and betrayal—of being held at arm’s length yet again.

    He downed the rest of his champagne in one sharp swallow and set the glass aside.

    “Yeah,” he said softly. “I’m starting to realise that.”

    OR -

    5 times Henry rejected PDA, and the one time he initiated it.

    Summary

    There’s a man in Henry’s bedroom. That, itself, isn’t noteworthy. He’s become rather proficient at smuggling men in and out of his room at Kensington Palace and his first-year flat at Oxford.

    It’s not even especially noteworthy that the man is quite arresting. For better or worse, Henry’s title and reputation tend to help him pull gorgeous men with somewhat astonishing frequency. This man is, of course, particularly gorgeous. He’s tall, with olive skin, dark hair, and a bone structure that would send the old masters into a frenzy of pigments, linseed oil, and canvas.

    But, perhaps, the most noteworthy thing is that the man in Henry’s bedroom is quickly and awkwardly wiping his eyes with the backs of his hands. That he seems just as surprised to see Henry as Henry is to see him.

    Or, the handwavey, time-travelly, astral-projectiony, canon-smooshy AU nobody asked for, but we're giving it to you anyway.

    Summary

    There’s a weight in his chest, something warm and precious. He’d call it relief, but that feels too upending. Call it hope, and that feels too restricting.

    He might—

    Well.

    He might call it happy.

    --

    or, Henry moves into the brownstone.

    Summary

    Catelyn Stark is many things, but blind is not one of them. Her husband comes marching into the courtyard and has the audacity to expect her to believe the baby with bone white hair and purple eyes is actually his. So she does what her house's words have dictated for generations before her birth, she chooses her family and protects them with everything she has, because she may have been born a trout but you better believe there's more than a little bit of wolf hiding beneath her scales.

    In another world, the song is sung with tragedy and fear and so much death, full of pain and grief and so much horror chasing away any hint of joy left.

    But this isn't that world.

    In this world, the song is sung by a thousand different voices full of love and forgiveness and mercy, people who choose to be kind when they don't have to be, who forgive when they could punish, and decide on the path with the least bodies. A world where maybe people don't need to stab each other in the back, kindness can be a strength rather than a weakness, and a dove can learn to fly with unclipped wings, because in this world? Everyone has the right to freedom.

    Summary

    It would be an easy lie to say that he had gone after her out of the goodness or his heart or because it was the right thing to do. He couldn't do that though, not when she was looking at him like he was a hero from one of the songs. He did this for himself, not for her.

    Summary

    Amity Park doesn't exist. That's the official line.

    On the surface, it would appear that Amity Park truly didn't. But the more Batman digs, the less true that seems. You add the fact that there's an unconscious teenager in the Batcave's Medbay that begged for his help and Batman smells a coverup. Amity Park may not exist on paper, but Batman won't let that stop him from saving it.

    Tucker's on his last legs. The escape out of Amity took everything he had and of all the places to land in, he finds himself in Gotham. Through a bit of creative hacking and desperation, he manages to find the reclusive Batman, only to babble about needing help and passing out at the man's feet. He just has to convince Batman that ghosts exist and that his entire town is in danger. Easy, right?

    Summary

    After Marietta reveals Dumbledore's Army, Fudge and Umbridge try to figure out who to blame for it all - Harry Potter or Albus Dumbledore. So McGonaggal suggests watching some of Harry's most important memories to see for themselves, only she hopes it would reveal the truth about Voldemort before anyone gets in trouble.

    Naturally, the entire school watches right along with them, and Madam Bones is invited to attend as well in the hopes of leaving things neutral.

    ---

    They watch the Harry Potter books... but not everything - it's a fun project I decided to start and it's not going to be too long. Also, it won't move past the fifth book, since... they haven't been through any more adventures yet. Hope you like it :)

    (PS - I was obviously wrong, this is going to be super long, for some reason.)

    (Another PS - this might show a couple of scenes from after the fifth book if I decide to add a bonus chapter. We'll see.)

    (I tried not to make the characters out of character, but I'm not sure I managed that...)

    Summary

    Dumbledore doesn't make it in time for Harry's trial, and the outcome is very different. Harry is expelled, his wand snapped.

    But he refuses to give up. And he is done waiting around for Albus Dumbledore to give him information.

    Deciding to take his life into his own hands, Harry asks for training from several Order members, preparing himself to fight Voldemort while the whole wizarding world believes he's helpless and back in the muggle world.

    Meanwhile, his friends are at Hogwarts, tackling their own problems in the form of Dolores Umbridge. Harry hadn't expected the separation to be so difficult - or for a certain mischievous redhead to make the waiting game they'd entered into so very excruciating.

    He might have lost his home in Hogwarts, but with Sirius and Remus around, Harry begins to learn that rebuilding a family isn't as hard as he'd anticipated.

    Summary

    But, for Harry, getting close to the twins creates its own problems.
