Summary
She played softly, fingers gliding over the ancient keys of the piano the Room had conjured — her mother’s salon, reborn in flickering candlelight. Notes drifted through the air like smoke, curling around the dark figure in the armchair behind her.
Tom Riddle sat with one leg crossed, firewhisky in one hand, a lit cigar in the other. He watched her through the haze, silent, as if trying to memorize every gesture, every sound. The flames caught in the glass and in her hair, and for a moment, he looked less like a boy destined for infamy and more like someone who had almost forgotten how alone he was.
“You don’t play for them,” he said quietly.
Hermione didn’t look up. “No.”
“But you play for me.”
A pause. Then: “Always.”
----
A war is lost when an opportunity is presented to her. Aberforth offers Hermione a chance to go back to the beginning to undo everything that has come to pass. Can Hermione Dumbledore alter the fate of one young man, can she turn the tide to a better future? Or is she fighting a losing battle, one where she looses herself in it?

The last time you wanted something so badly, you moved halfway across the country for it.
It's a good thing John Price is just next door.
or; your slice of life is a piece of blackberry pie you carefully curated over the course of a year.

Summary
“I’m warning you,” Jinu says, soft. Pleading. “I really will hurt you.”
“Then you can hurt me,” Rumi says, softer. Pulling the more he pushes. “I want you to hurt me.”
These nightly visits are getting out of hand — but Rumi is more than willing to give.

like snow; scrawled over and smoothed over by OrangeButt73

Summary
“Shh, I know, I know,” he hushes her, all tender and sweet, all cruel and mean as she feels rather than sees the smile curving up his lips. The intent flashing in his gaze, the hint of something heavy in gold. “You like me so much you can’t help yourself. I get it.”
There’s that coy flirtation in his voice again; that cockiness like it doesn’t mean anything. But it does and she knows because his tone wavers, because he doesn’t laugh and his fingers stutter into a pause before losing their rhythm. Fast and uncoordinated, only a frantic pace that almost seems like he’s angry, like he’s pleading. Like he has to break her or else she’ll look elsewhere.
Jinu, Rumi — and everything that is routine, that is left said and unsaid.

Summary
Because the Honmoon is still so new, it's fragile. Fragile enough for four particular demons to slip through. Ironically enough, the Huntrix and the Saja Boys goals align.
(In which the saja boys are actually bad news, and the girls have a lot of unfinished business)

Summary
All it takes to prevent tragedy is a cat.
Preposterous, maybe, but nonetheless true.
Helaena is eight and he freshly seven, tooth faced and smiling. It’s his nameday, and yet he gives the small, black kitten to her. Many people think black cats bring bad luck, she knows it, and she cries over it, despite how Aegon teases her.
When he presents the small kitten to her, she can’t help but fluster and beam. The kitten captures her heart already.
“For you, Helaena,” Jace breathes. “I know how you love animals.”
Or: Helaena and Jace fall in love and stop a war.

Summary
“Should we have told Prince Aemond that Princess Lucenya was here not a fortnight ago, asking about his betrothal?” Kermit asks.
“No, you muppet,” Ser Elmo snaps. “Targaryen, Velaryon, Strong bastard, I don’t care their names. The dragons are obsessed with each other and we will not get involved.”
Aemond Targaryen and Lucenya Velaryon will not be seeing through their engagement… so the Great Houses would like to know why they’re refusing to wed anyone else.
(or: the war of ravens and envoys and marriage pacts never comes to an end because no one can figure out what in the seven hells is going on.)
