Summary
“It needs curtains,” Ellana says firmly.
“Curtains?”
From his unsteady tone, it isn’t what he expected her to say.
Ellana nods with purpose. She has had a lot of practice with keeping up a calm, brave face until conditions improve.
“Curtains. Do you remember when we first got to Skyhold? What a mess it was? There were woodchucks under the foundation, three hundred years of raven droppings in the rotunda, and a spirit of compassion down in the field hospital trying to euthanize our soldiers. But Josephine looked around and said we needed to hang curtains, and by the end of the day, we were measuring for the drapers.”

Summary
"Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”
“What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.
“Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

Summary
It’s in the middle of scanning the last bottle of green tea that Itadori properly looks up. Eye contact with him is a physical, unexpected shock, a crunch of imaginary static snapping through Megumi and leaving his hands twitching at his sides.
"Hey." Itadori blinks, wide and earnest. "Do I know you from somewhere?"
The tea sloshes backwards in the bottle he’s holding. Megumi focuses on this until his vision steadies.
"No," he says. "I don’t think so."
In the aftermath, Itadori loses his memories instead of his life. Megumi grieves nonetheless.

Summary
Transported back in time, Megumi must rely on the only familiar face in Heian Japan. Ryoumen Sukuna, a curse to some and deity to others, decides to keep him.
The futility of Megumi’s plans distilled into desperation, which had him contemplating that name again: Ryoumen Sukuna, the only familiar one here.
But the people spoke of Sukuna in this era with utter terror. There was no air of triumph like in the modern day. Sukuna hadn’t been sealed yet, and the world knew him as the unbeatable, invincible King of Curses. He wasn’t the Sukuna that Megumi knew.
Canon-compliant through current manga arc and at least season 2 of the anime

The Fade exists in all times and all places. If there is a way to change the Dread Wolf's heart, Carys Lavellan thinks she'll find it there.
She finds more than she expected.

“Hawke?” she asked hesitantly. “Is that you? Why are you a bird?”
The bird fluffed its black and white-barred chest feathers and shook out its wings, which did have a prodigious span.
“I’m a hawk, get it?” the bird announced.
Carys tilted her head and studied it for a moment.
“I think you’re a Greater Marches fish eagle. They used to roost down by the Waking Sea in those dead snags by the water.”
"Balls," said Hawke, and turned back into the Champion of Kirkwall.

Summary
Three weeks into their delightful slog across Westeros, during yet another charming day of shitting in the woods, eating half-raw squirrel, and trudging his feet bloody, the single most dour and uninteresting woman Jaime had ever met in all of Westeros stopped in the middle of a field, drew a deep breath, and said, “When I was seven, my aunt came to visit with her son. My father told me that as the daughter of the house, it was my duty to show hospitality to my guests and to be gracious to them. I wanted to make him proud. So for three weeks, I let my cousin follow me around and talk to me about spiders.”

Summary
“You’re an expert at the challenging, though. I have handled—personally, mind you—three double-O agents, and not one of them has been the exasperation that you so continuously prove. You don’t think. Someone who doesn’t think doesn’t deserve hot water.”
Or, the one where Q controls the universe with technology and Bond is trying to avoid complications (like falling for the voice in his head).

Summary
Elia looked at her incredulously. “And you expect me to marry him and straighten this all out? Why would he listen to a thing I have to say?”
“He won’t. Your job is to make him listen, Elia. And of all the eligible maidens who will be put forth to him as potential second wives, you are cunning enough to do it.”
“A viper may strike at a lion and poison it,” Elia reasoned darkly, “But a poisoned lion can still kill the viper with a single swipe of his paw.”
“There’s my wise girl,” Mother smiled. “But perhaps the viper will not have to strike at the lion at all.”
(Elia Martell becomes the Lady of Casterly Rock due to her mother's machinations. Robarra Baratheon becomes a princess due to a demand for a bride of Targaryen blood. The seeds of rebellion are planted all the same.)
