    Summary

    It was the freshest bit of gossip the whole school had the minute Oscar Piastri enrolled. Everyone spoke about the son of a Death Eater attending Hogwarts.

    Piastri is off-putting, yes. Eerily stoic at times and a growing nuisance to Lando when he bests him at duels in front of everyone. But does Lando think this kid is some evil and dangerous wizard? Frankly, he couldn’t care less about what this kid is.

    He just needs to beat him next time they’re opponents.

     

    OR

    Lando and Oscar are rivals with a deep rooted hatred for each other, both vying to win a prestigious competition at Hogwarts. But the road to becoming a victor will be tricky as they become each other’s distraction and obsession.

    Summary

    When ghosts from Lucien's past come back to haunt him, he finds himself allied with Azriel, leading to unexpected respect and friendship.

    This idea came to me after a lengthy conversation with a friend where I realized that Lucien and Azriel have a lot in common in terms of their backgrounds and families. I'm bracing myself for them to end up in a messy love triangle with Elain whenever a new ACOTAR book comes out, but this story was an opportunity to explore what would happen if they became friends instead.

    Takes place just after ACOSF

    This story will NOT focus on ships, but rather friendship and general relationship.

    Batman keeps falling asleep around Hal.

    Weirdly enough, Bruce Wayne does too.

    Summary

    “I'm not suicidal,” Bruce says with a roll of his eyes, reaching out to take a biscuit from the plate in front of him. Alfred had specifically sent them with him to give to Clark, but what he doesn't know can't hurt him.

    Besides, Clark doesn't even seem to mind, given he's more focused on glaring at Bruce from across the table, “I didn’t say you were. I simply made some observations.”

    (The recurrent pattern of coming and going, decline and regrowth, of Bruce Wayne.)

    Summary

    “I mean, do you ever stop and think about who your anonymous friend might be?" Tighnari says. "Or like, maybe it’s someone you already know or some random guy in one of your classes.”

    “No,” Kaveh says, thinking. “With my luck, if I did know him already, then he would probably be the worst person I know. Someone like Al-Haitham.” The thought is so absurd that he stops and laughs. “But that would be fucking awful.”

    In Kaveh's humble opinion, the title for The Worst Guy In The World is tied between four people: the asshole in his Tuesday eight am, the employee behind the library email account, the guy writing the university's advice column, and the student that the professor he assists always complains about.

    It would only be too convenient if they were all the same person. (They are.)
