Summary
Argus' life was a largely thankless one (unless you counted the thanks of the paintings he maintained), working on keeping a thousand year old castle from falling down around the ears of students who didn't care. He had his cat, his work, his books, and a constant boil of self hatred and resentment to get him by.
And then a sixth year handed him a letter from her aunt, thanking him for acting as conservator of Hogwarts and calling him Dr. Filch. It was the first time he had been called Doctor since he started at the castle. He had little choice but to write back, after that.

Summary
Alex has no use for Alexander Hamilton, or anything that his egotistical, screwed-up, moronic genius of a predecessor ever did. Reincarnation is the literal worst, and Alex has no intention of letting the mistakes of his former life screw up his chances to do better the second time around. The Department can stick him in yet another foster home if they like, but there's nothing they can do to make him stay. He's not interested in doing therapy, or making friends, or integrating back into society. If there's one thing he learned last time, it's that no-one will have his back.
But a new placement might mean a new beginning, if Alex could manage to get Hamilton's chip off his shoulder, and if he can ever figure out exactly why some of his new acquaintances seem so suddenly, achingly familiar.

Summary
Thirteen is the unlucky number for the criminal who can't learn, and Nori is all out of chances. His thirteenth theft means his punishment is the loss of an arm. Ori, fearing for his brother, begs the captain of the guard, saying he'd do anything, anything at all, to save his brother. Dwalin says he'll let Nori go in exchange for Ori himself. Ori, thinking he's trading a night in a seedy inn for his brother's arm, agrees. What he didn't expect after Nori had been let go, was for Dwalin to braid a marriage bead into Ori's hair and take the scribe home with him.
Ori finds himself having breakfast with princes and kings, working a new job with the best in his field, and trying to navigate a relationship with a guardsman who has more power over Ori's life and happiness than either of them want.

Summary
Bruce Wayne was never meant to be part of Selina’s clean slate. Then again, neither were a circus boy, a street rat or a rich kid.
For a girl who didn’t like strings, Selina found herself getting attached.
