    Summary

    The problem is Harry. Tom loves Harry, unfortunately. Tom would not recognize the word "love" if you tattooed it on the inside of his eyelids, but he does. He can't really help it. He has, against his will, faked it until he made it.

    For the prompt "Tom is adopted by the Potters."

    Summary

    “Fancy seeing you here,” Ben said. His smirk said it was anything but – he, at least, had known about their living arrangements for the year.

    Bea counted to five again. “It’s one in the afternoon.”

    “Not my time,” Ben said, and he slurped his beer loudly. Even three floors down she could hear the rattle of the beer in the can through his straw.

    “Yes, true,” Bea said. She put a hand on her hip. “So, they let you back into the country, hm?”

    “Low blow,” Ben said cheerfully. “A lazy shot. But yes, I am here, yet again. You may lavish me with your post-summer tidings.”

    “I’m going to key your fucking car.”

    “I’ve missed you, too, Bea.”

    Or, a modern college AU of Much Ado.

    Summary

    When Aloy stole her way into the Forbidden West, she hadn’t truly taken heed of the warnings she’d been given about how wild the people are, and how vicious. After all, the Nora, of the so-called ‘Savage East’ had hardly been the people the Carja and Oseram made them out to be and she felt no reason to assume any of the bizarre rumours she’d heard had any basis in fact. The Utaru had no interest in her and barely spared her a glance as she passed through their land – but the Tenakth were another story.

    No longer a one-shot about Aloy crossing into the Forbidden West early and her attempt to recapture AETHER.

    Summary

    I'm writing my vision of what Season 2 could be. Jack Dawkins is out of prison, but not entirely free. He and Belle are waiting out the end of his sentence to be together, but when a stranger arrives from London with questions about Jack's past and Belle's surgery, everything they're trying to build is thrown into Jeopardy. This work is part of a series but can be read alone.

    Eight months was a very long time to be good.

    The governor and Lady Fox had given him an extraordinary deal, he knew that. One more year of service to the hospital and his penal debt would be paid. His record would be expunged and he would be a free man for the first time in his adult life. Furthermore, he didn’t have to stop his work as a surgeon. In fact, Lady Fox had made it quite clear that his skill in that arena was a key reason for this miraculous deal.

    All he had to do was abide by three simple rules:

    1. Don’t go anywhere
    2. Don’t make any money
    3. Don’t be alone with Belle
