    Summary

    Damian pulls out his phone and dials Richard’s number- his chauffeur has been unfortunately painstakingly instructed to answer no calls whatsoever from Damian, and Alfred has begun to pretend that phones do not exist during school hours. Unsurprisingly, as it is eight in the morning, it goes to voicemail. Damian waits impatiently for the beep. “Richard,” he says, in tones of the deeply suffering, “this place is a hostile environment. I must be collected post-haste, as after this latest indignity I am dropping out. Come at once, or I may die here.”

    The dynamic duo attend a parent-teacher conference. No one has a good day.

    Summary

    A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.

    He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.

    'Arthur?'


    When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.

    He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.

    Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

    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

    Vulcans don't do polyamory, but Spock got married twice. The first time, it was earnestly believing that he wasn't going to go through Pon Farr, almost dying, and then being 'rescued' by James Kirk, only to wind up in a shot-gun wedding on Vulcan. It made the news. The second time was a different story. He'd intended a platonic bond with Leonard McCoy, but all hell broke loose. No one, no one but Jim, knows that it happened. Not his parents, not his sister, and not his crew. This is the story of the trio coming to terms with being in a bonded poly triad, coming out, and beginning to build a family of their own, punctuated with explosive android saboteurs, faux alien wizards, an encounter with the Mirror Universe, and most terrifying of all: breaking the news to Sarek.

    **This work picks up where "More Enduring Than Copper" left off, and continues character development over the course of various adventures**

    Part II in the series.
