Summary
Aboard Galdor's warship, Glorfindel returns in triumph from a dangerous expedition deep into enemy territory. He has found Elrond's missing son, but all is not well: the Elf-child that was abducted by the Corsairs of Umbar is now a Man grown. War and darkness have left Elrohir deeply scarred, and he is not the mission's only casualty.
An alternate universe for the Under Strange Stars series, in which Elrohir goes with Glorfindel instead of running away from him after the events of Under Strange Stars. This story covers the events of ‘Northern Skies’, but it can be enjoyed without having read the original.
STORY COMPLETE
Many thanks to Grundy for all of her excellent beta-reading and brainstorming.

voice in the back of my head by Butterfly
Fandom The Wheel of Time (TV), Wheel of Time - Robert Jordan
03 Mar 2025
Summary
When the TV series started airing, I was reminded of how unsatisfying I found Mat's romantic future in the book series, so I decided that I would write something where I snuck him into the Randland polycule. This series splits off from TV canon during S1E6: the Flame of Tar Valon, so everything that happens into the show prior to that is canon here, but from this point forward, I will be repurposing book canon to suit the needs of the story.

Summary
After the events in Tanchico, Mat finds himself missing some important memories. But not to worry, Thom and Elayne are here to remind him that he's been in a relationship with Rand for the past two years.
“I told Elayne about you and Rand,” Thom said gently. “By accident, mind, and I apologize for that. But it means that she does know about- well, about the first time that you and I traveled together. You don’t need to hide the truth from her.”
“Right,” Mat said. “I’m not…”
Was Thom implying what Mat thought he was implying?

satisfying take on the independent harry trope, realistic and beautiful rather than wish fulfillment all the way

Summary
Dying and coming back to life for a second time should have been more surprising. Harry Potter merely sighed in exasperation and moved on.
Death at thirty was not something he was entirely happy with, but he had lived a lot longer than he could have hoped for at fifteen years old. Waking up after was annoying, but in such a chaotic situation he could only roll with it.
Having a wizard with a whisper of Destiny about him wondering about Harry's existence in this wild new world was bad enough, but to these people he was considered a child. Nope, he was not going to be staying with them.
Harry Potter had not been a child in a very long time; he would not start acting like one now.
OR
Harry Potter crashes into the Company of Thorin Oakenshield in Goblin Town, finds out he’s now an elf-child, coming back to life after death is a fact of elf-life, Music equals Magic, and dark lords are a universal constant whenever and wherever magic is involved.

"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Summary
Creating horcruxes is a tricky business.
So… what happens when it gets screwed up? What if the soul shard was left unprotected or—even worse—attached to another soul? Well, it wouldn’t be good for the horcrux, that’s for sure. And god only knows what it’d do to the other soul…
Harry Potter grows up in an abusive home while also dealing with a Shadowy Voice in his mind. What does that sort of thing do to a child? Will he ignore his Other Voice and join forces with his long-lost twin brother, the so-called ‘Boy-Who-Lived,’ as heirs apparent to the Light? Or will he succumb to the voice in his head, and begin following the path of Darkness?
Or maybe he’ll choose something different. Can Harry maintain his fundamental goodness while traveling a journey full of theft, Unforgivables, murder, and mayhem?

Summary
Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

Summary
Reincarnating into the wizarding world is nothing but surreal, and petty things such as shame and safety become easy to ignore. To Lyra and James all the world's a stage for fun and drama. Though, perhaps, they should not have looked behind the curtains — for as Dumbledore says, there are far worse things than death. (Double SI, powerful magic, no bashing, Lovecraftian divergence)
