Teaching a Tone-Deaf Wet-Faced Human How to Sing-Share by theyhavenotyetinventedawordforwhatiam

Summary
Rocky has officially moved into Hail Mary with Grace, but he's still dealing with the aftereffects of living nearly fifty human years by himself. By chance, he finds himself singing with Grace, and it's clear Grace doesn't fully understand what that means for Eridians.
This story roughly follows the plot of both the book and the film, but Rocky and Grace's personalities are more reminiscent of the book. Furthermore, Rocky's speaking style closely follows the book, although his physical appearance is closer to his depiction in the film.

Summary
Two days after their first contact—and more importantly, their first words—Grace sets up his thinking machine to speak.
Rocky does not need the assistance of a machine for Grace’s language. It is ugly and harsh to listen to, but it’s relatively simple to learn. That, and, well—Rocky was alone for a very, very long time before he met Grace. He maybe hangs on to each word a little more than strictly necessary. Grace only needs to tell him each word once for Rocky to know it forever.
Grace, though…
Well, he’s lucky Rocky is patient. Let’s leave it at that.

Summary
I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.
Right up until Rocky asks another question.
“When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”
Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”
Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.
“Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”
I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.
“When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”
I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.
“Grace. When last time, question.”
I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.
“Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”
I can taste grass.

Summary
“Think of it in this way: suppose I make two statements. Statement one: “After I die, I shall be reborn as a baby… but I shall forget my former life.” Statement two: “After I die… a baby will be born.” Now, I believe that those two statements are saying exactly the same thing.”—Alan Watts

Summary
The clock hit 7:55, and a knock sounded on the front door. Harry practically bounced across the room, honestly overjoyed to see whoever it was on the other side. No matter what, they were taking him away from the Dursleys, and that was all that mattered. He heard Vernon’s lumbering steps entering the hall, accompanied by the sharp click of Petunia’s heels, but he raced to reach the door first. A wide grin stretched his cheeks to their limits as he threw open the door.
And the smile fell right off his face.
Shrouded in darkness, fog swirling around the hem of his long, dark robes, face as dour as ever, and hair casting cruel shadows across his face, stood Severus Snape.

Summary
The Dursleys have had enough and decided well, since Harry is now a teenager surely he can work for his own keep and sent him off to get a job as they will no longer be providing him with his needs (not like they did that anyway) and surely he can start helping pay the bills. Harry fortunately found a job that is nearby, a grocery store. As Harry settles in on this new routine he gets used it until one day on the checkout line he runs into the last person he wants to see.
"P-professor Snape?"
"Potter!"
For Harry it appears to be that things seem to be getting worse but finds that perhaps this is the start of something good.

I am on hiatus! I will be updating this again, just less frequently. Thanks to all the support!

Harry wanted to tell Snape that he was a freak and freaks don't get touched like this. Snape was making a mistake and Harry felt guilty, like maybe he had accidentally tricked Snape into being nice. Just like how he tricked the wizarding world into thinking he was somehow capable of being some savior, even though he couldn’t defend himself against his muggle uncle.- Language:

Summary
SEQUEL to Two Weeks! With the knowledge of his fate weighing heavily on his chest, Harry is struggling to cope with his latest revelations as he is plunged into his sixth year at Hogwarts. Meanwhile, a certain Potions Master, now Defense Professor, is hellbent on finding a solution. The two wizards had never seen eye-to-eye, but that is coming to a change as the two must co-work and conspire against more than just the Dark Lord now. But with both of them burdened with their past mistakes and trauma, the path they have chosen will not prove easy.
But maybe they will not have to venture it alone. At least, not anymore.
So, it begs the question: will they succeed? Will they overcome the many obstacles thrown in their way by this damned war, where the battlefield is a chess board, and they are two mere pawns, played by the two most feared and powerful wizards of the century?
Will they find life and solace in their mere existence?

Summary
The omega tries to fight back the panic building in his chest, but it only gets stronger and stronger. He inhales and exhales, again and again, trying and failing to find that one scent he can always rely on. He's missing something, no, someone important.
Where is the man that would pull the small omega into his lap when he was in too much pain to finish his nest?
Where is the man who snarled and fought the people who tried to break into their den to get their hands on the omega?
Where is the man that fed the omega, bathed him, cleaned him up, clothed him, and took care of him as if he was his own child?
Where...where the hell is Regto?
(Or: Rudo’s first heat without Regto ends with him going completely feral. Unbeknownst to Rudo, he has a pack ready to take care of the omega when shit hits the fan.)

Summary
“Now therefore thou art cursed from the Earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thine hand.”
Rising tensions between the United Kingdom and the United States have forced Alfred F. Jones between a rock and a hard place—the desire to stand his ground against his estranged father and save his brother from the man’s rule, and the fact that he really, really, really does not want to go to war with Canada.
Except it’s not really a war with Canada. It’s a war with England taking place in Canada, for the purpose of liberating Canada and protecting American sovereignty by expelling the British from North America once and for all. That’s all. It’s really quite simple.
Working in foreign affairs sure is hard when all of your correspondents are immediate family.
