  2. Summary

    Main story: It's the Tetrawizard Tournament, but Ed is actually more interested in the Hogwarts library. Those pesky tasks are just getting in the way of his research. Also a Yule Ball. Who came up with this again? Anyway, between the Tournament, NEWT preparations (because not even a champion is exempt from those), his research into a cure for Al and his giant if inconvenient crush on one Roy Mustang, their unfairly hot and competent trip supervisor, his year has a bit more excitement than he signed up for. Oh and apparently this Tournament is a giant murder plot, as if he didn't have enough on his plate already.
    Extra Scenes: How the third task could have gone.

    Summary

    “Dickie… can you tell me if this woman… is she dead?”

    “No,” Dick says. Something hot and wet slips down his cheek, liquid burning in his eyes.

    “Is she behind bars?”

    “…No.”

    Jason draws in a breath. Then, with the force of a rage that only a victim knows, he says, “I’d do it, Dickie. I would hunt her down, and I would kill her. Just give me a name. All I need is a name, and I’ll erase her from this fucking earth.”

    So very much in character, best type of hurt/comfort and hints of their relationship outside that night that paint a picture of devotion down to their bones.

    Summary

    The story behind these lines from There’s a Bird in the Alleyway

    “[T]he working girls who saved your life said you’ve done some stuff to help them out. Your gentlemanly ways are impressing them.”

    “I don’t know if punching a creep in the face counts as being gentlemanly.”

    Or, Nightwing accidentally earns the trust of Bludhaven's working girls by being "polite and smiley."

    In which Nightwing makes friends with Bludhaven's sex workers and they summarily decide to adopt him and all the attached bat-siblings in return. All the family dynamics are awesome, the girls are amazing and there are many shenanigans, from kidnapping to galas. So much fun and definitely good for the soul :)

    In which the voicemail actually gets through and Sam and Dean manage to get back on the same page. Their dynamic is spot on and they show all signs of being the codependent messes I love to despair over.

    Summary

    “Hmm,” Magnus puts in, even though no one asked him. “Are they vital, these missing memories? Merely suggesting that memories are removed for many reasons and barring the fate of the entire Downworld resting on their safe retrieval - if you happened to know where a lost Shadowhunter relic might have been hidden away in order to stop a psychopathic maniac from starting a war, for instance - sometimes things are better not tampered with.”

    “You’ve done this before then,” the girl says. “Summoned a Memory Demon?”

    “Indeed,” Magnus says.

    ...

    Years after the attempt with Valak, Magnus finds his home overrun with a group of young Shadowhunters in need of summoning another Memory Demon. It brings a few things to light for the newest generation - not least of which is one of the biggest open secrets in the Clave.

    In which Malec spent a month apart and now there's an inconvenient research party going on in their living room, just in time for their reunion.
    Or: Magnus and Alec go down memory lane and have trouble keeping their hands and eyes off each other. You really feel the centuries, the future. And of course their devotion to each other.
