Summary
He could show him where the sweetest figs grew, and where the bees made their honey. He could teach him the names of plants and their purposes, and how to read the designs of the Fates in the flight of birds. He could teach him of the beast-headed gods of Egypt, and the blood-thirsty gods of Phoenicia, and could introduce him to the incarnations of those countries.
And one day, by the will of the Gods, the child would grow as strong as Mamarce, and they would stand side by side over Italy, invincible.
There was time enough for all of it and more.
“Romulus,” he repeated to himself, overflowing with anticipation.
This time, the boy smiled and responded, “Mamarce.”
A centuries-long study of Rome's rise to power and the decline of the Etruscan civilization, told through the relationship between Romulus and his brother, Mamarce.

Summary
In a world where Hermione Granger never went to Hogwarts, and had yet to meet Draco Malfoy.
The summer before her final year at Beauxbatons, Hermione meets a tall, blonde, and deeply troubled wizard alone on a secluded beach in her French Riviera hometown. They spend the summer together and fall in love, but he leaves abruptly, leaving no way to keep in touch.
That is, until Beauxbatons gets invited to Hogwarts for the Triwizard Tournament.
Hermione can't wait to see Draco again, but unfortunately for her, there is far more prejudice towards witches of her kind in Britain than France, and Hermione soon discovers that the most prejudiced of them all is the last person she could have expected...
(Aka Dramione but make it a Goblet of Fire rewrite that takes place in seventh year; and also it's a Grease parody)

Summary
“You’re kind,” Crowley said with another small laugh. Aziraphale looked over at him. His gaze softened. “Y’know, people like that sort of thing. Kind people.”
Aziraphale nodded. Crowley felt something strange stirring in his stomach, and he wondered if perhaps he’d had a little too much to drink. He was beginning to get the urge to do something stupid. To reach forward and take the angel’s hand. To trace the lines of his smile, and the creases of his eyes, and memorize what he looked like in case it was a long while before they saw each other again.
Whoa now, said the only logical part of his brain he had left, maybe it’s time to sober up.
Five times Crowley gave Aziraphale a gift on Valentine's Day, and one time it was the other way around.

Summary
“Rome will burn!” The cry tore through my throat, tears pricking my lashes. I was not sad, I knew he would listen. Ares’ blessing of courage burned in my veins.
Piercing, his eyes met mine, jaw tightening.
“Rome will burn,” I repeated, “Drought will plague your fields. Then starvation will plague your people. Animals will die, and the waters will run rust-red with the old blood of Rome.”
My voice came from beyond me.
The soldier had raised a blade to my throat, by then. The cold metal nicked my skin and made the hair on my nape stand alert. The emperor - whose name I did not yet know - raised his hand.
“Stop.” I did not need to know Latin to understand this. -

Summary
His hair, gold as the sand beneath his horse’s hooves, hung freely to his mid-back and stood in sharp contrast to the deep purple linen he wore. He carried no weapon, no gasta nor gladius nor pugio; no shield to be seen. The only thing he armed himself with were three metal spheres that were strapped to his belt and glittered emerald in the sun.
While his opponent glowered, he turned to the crowd and waved. The trio of black bands along his biceps dug into his skin as he moved, and you could spot gold bracers along his forearms emblazoned with purple. For the briefest flicker of a moment, his gaze met yours, and he smiled.
Without realizing it, you had leaned forward.
“Look at him.” Giorno pointed to the unarmored man and turned to you with interest. “You mentioned earlier, you were sure the gods favored those who swore their oath to battle. Do you think the gods are on his side?”
From the bloody sand below, the man winked at you and waved.

Summary
Crowley was hoping the Angel would try to get in touch with him, somehow.
But it had been almost 3 weeks. Nothing. Not even a feeling. Not even a feather.
Crowley was lonely. And not just lonely. He was tired.
Instead of taking off to wander alone among the stars for all time, he finds himself looking over an old postcard from a friend he'd met in 1985, when the man had accidentally summoned him to a rather questionable tea-party.
Tired of waiting around for whatever Heaven was planning to crash down on the world he loved, and sick of the same scenes reminding him of how hollow his existence really was, Crowley decides to visit the old man.
Besides. The Angel would never look for him in a place called 'Blackfly'.
Or would he?

Summary
Logan is the newest gladiator in Rome, and he's been quick to get everyone's attention.
He's got the upper classes talking, as many wish to claim him as their protégé. His seniors from the arena are jealous of his popularity, and can't stand his prideful attitude that makes him refuse the protection from any noble Master - an opportunity most of them would kill to have.
But, above all, he's got the attention of Kurt, the Emperor's counsellor. Being so fascinated by this new gladiator, he asks Logan to accept him as his Master, charming him with his remarkable looks and personality, and offering him more than anyone else could.
However, there is a catch: everyone would believe Logan to be Kurt's whore.
Torn between public honour and risking a shameful death at the hands of his peers, Logan has to make a bitter choice that may forever change his fate.Updated weekly! I have it all written and beta-ed, but I prefer to publish it in chapters.

Percy is frustrated. After a chaotic experience at his friends' wedding the other day, he accepted an all-expense paid quest throughout Europe. The catch?

Annabeth is haunted. The demons of her past pay her visits nightly, and her strategic planning skills just aren't what they used to be. As if she needed any more stressors, the gods have chosen to throw Percy Jackson back into her life, and he isn't exactly the hero he used to be either.
After Hazel and Frank's wedding is almost ruined by a plot by the minor deity Pothos, exes Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson embark on a quest throughout Europe to get their questions answered. Where are the monsters that won't go to Tartarus coming from? Who is Marty McFly, really? What is Pothos planning?
