Summary
Why did this place always let in the lovesick ones? Why couldn't I run a guesthouse for normal, sensible people who paid in recogniseable currency and didn't throw tantrums in my flowerbeds? Was that too much to ask for?
(Ariadne meets Dionysus. This is not the kind of thing one writes poems about.)

Summary
You don’t just up and marry someone you met not a half hour ago, even if he’s got an easy smile and kettle-bright hair and shoulders wider than the Rockies and- and brown eyes that crinkle at the corners, like he’s laughing a little. Oh help.
(What if Milly had learned the truth a little earlier?)

Summary
“I know who you are,” Cecil said, finally looking at him. His pupils were still just pinpricks from the force of the light. “Carlos.” He rubbed his temples. “The power,” he said, “was out for a really long time. Citizens with power outages, especially during times of rolling blackouts, may experience a temporary sense of identity dislocation.”
(Well, Carlos is going to fix that.)

Summary
"My aunt de Bourgh saw fit to attend on your family and, through an unhappy combination of cards, ratafia and your mother’s – " (here, Mr Darcy bit his lip) "persuasiveness, to wager my hand at Quadrille. Against, I should say, my strictest warnings. She lost; I am yours; let me, by all means, pay the forfeit at the altar. I am a man of my word, however little it was consulted in this matter, and you need not doubt that I shall make you – a winner in effect."
(In which Elizabeth comes to Pemberley a most reluctant bride, only to find that Pemberley is not all that it seems.)

The note pinned to his collar read 'Harry J Potter - please accept'. The Dursleys had left him with nothing else but a pillow sack with half a sleeve of McVities biscuits, a mealy apple, and ten pounds.

this is... epic. plotwise it's excellent. can't remember what the writing was like with any specificity, but it was definitely worth the read.
