Summary
It was sheer chance when Bilbo thought back on it. What if he’d stayed home? What if someone else had run up the lane before him?
But it was him. It was him and it was Kíli, and Bilbo wouldn’t change it for the world.
*
Long ago, a dwarf child was lost and found in a storm by Bilbo Baggins. He has no idea where his young ward came from; all attempts to find Kíli's family failed. Sticking together, they make do and it's a peaceful life.
Until Gandalf arrives with talk of adventure. Until the Company of Thorin Oakenshield arrives on their doostep.
Or: Kíli's a missing prince. Bilbo's not about to let his (son) ward face a dragon without him.

Summary
After the war, Harry Potter spends years wandering the world. She studied ancient magic, followed old roads, learned the secrets of death and the space between worlds.
When she finally steps through the Veil, she expects an ending. Instead, she wakes beneath a city called Gotham.
The first person she finds is a boy who should be dead. Abandoned by fate, and carrying more pain than anyone his age ever should, Jason Todd is prepared for many things. Kindness was not one of them.
She doesn't ask him to be a hero. She doesn't ask him to forgive. She doesn't ask him to heal. She simply gives him a place to stay, a hot meal, and someone waiting when he comes home.
Then she buys a building in Crime Alley. Then another. And another. Years after surviving one war, she found herself fighting a different battle, not with magic or prophecy, but with housing projects, community centres, foster programs, and an endless supply of homemade food. And she discovered that sometimes changing the world doesn't require saving it.
Sometimes it just means leaving the porch light on.
"If you're looking for Lady Potter," the children of Crime Alley say, "just follow the laughter."Bookmarked by danceofshadows

Summary
“I wrote Q a letter, then me and Alice dropped it down a well at the top of the Mountain of Ghosts, yada yada yada,” Eliot says. “But I didn’t think it would *actually* reach him.”
Julia’s eyes go wide. “What did it say?”
He opens his mouth to tell her, but Quentin beats him to the punch.
“To Quentin Coldwater, before he went to the Seam: Come back, asshole.”
“Um. Yeah. That.”
—————————
In which Quentin returns to the land of the living for the very simple reason that Eliot asked him to.

Summary
When ten year old Tim Drake is paired with the freshly adopted, thirteen year old Jason Todd for a school project, he is ecstatic. He just hopes he can keep his inner fanboy under control. At the same time, his parents’ trips are increasing in length, and Tim is handling it like a champ! Who needs parental supervision? Not him! Although, a little company might be nice…
Meanwhile, Jason is still half convinced that his adoption is an elaborate human trafficking scheme, but this Robin gig is pretty cool. And his new school may be full of rich jerks, but the neighbor kid isn’t too bad. Having an adult trying to take care of him is a bit of an adjustment, but one he might just be able to get used to.
