    Summary

    22 years ago, a royal mage betrayed the throne and Imprisoned the King in a magical prison. Later the same night, she was killed attempting to flee the capitol city, Freetown. Without her to break the enchantment on the prison, the King was doomed to imprisonment. However, in the kingdom of Regalton, those who die are reborn within the border the same day that they die. Memories of past lives are restored on a persons' 22nd birthday. To free the King, all they had to do was wait for the Royal Mage's reincarnation.

    Charlie's current life is going well. She has a job she loves, a boyfriend she's certain is her lover from a previous life, and her own bed to sleep in a room she only shares with two other people. There's just one problem: her birthday is the same day that the King was Imprisoned. When a Royal Police Man shows up at her workplace to invite her to a celebration of the Kingdom's founding on the day of her birthday, she is caught up in the search for the rogue royal mage, whether she wants to be or not.

    Summary

    From a Hobbitkink prompt:

    The battle was over, and Thorin Oakenshield awoke, naked and shivering, in the Halls of his Ancestors.

    The novelty of being dead fades quickly, and watching over his companions soon fills him with grief and guilt. Oddly, a faint flicker of hope arises in the form of his youngest kinsman, a Dwarf of Durin's line with bright red hair.

    (Follows the story of the War of the Ring).

     

    (Bagginshield, Gimli/Legolas) In which recovery takes time, the dead members of the Company take to watching Gimli as though he’s a soap opera, the living struggle with being left behind, Legolas is confused, Khuzdul is abused, and Thorin is four feet and ten inches of guilt and anger.

    Summary

    Bilbo had a sudden, cheerful realization. “Oh, my, this must mean you’ve already dealt with the problem of the dragon without me!”

    Bofur frowned. “Bilbo, no–”

    “Sorry, you haven’t dealt with the dragon?”

    Summary

    The Leverage team specializes in taking down bad guys, not helping them. But when a highly ranked member of Boston's Russian mafia asks Nate Ford for his help, his case is one the team cannot refuse.

    It's also one that quickly begins to stretch past the limits of their expertise, their understanding, and their very belief that they know how the universe works. They need help, and that help can only be found in the Chicago Yellow Pages, where a man by the name of Harry Dresden advertises his services as a professional wizard.

    Welcomed by the team with a gamut of reactions, from open disbelief to full support, Dresden and the Leverage team quickly find themselves embroiled in a war between immortals where even their collective skills might not be enough to ensure victory. Or, for that matter, survival. Because ancient powers are stirring in the modern world, and they don't seem to much care who they trample as they go about settling their old feuds, once and for all.
