    Summary

    Sequel to The Triune Ritual. A very fresh WIP. Updates will be sporadic and slow.

    Primarily follows "Tom Riddle" of the original books, renamed Septimus Marvolo Slytherin (see Book 1), as he attends Hogwarts and comes of age.

    Focuses on friendships, family, and War with Grindelwald. Takes the perspective that Tom Riddle was the product of his upbringing; when raised with love, what can he grow to be instead?

    Likely will incorporate a Albus Dumbledore/Marius Black ship (rated Teen until I get to that point; will update tags)

    Summary

    With an approaching deadline that would determine the future of Harry’s art career, he really needed to put his head down and finish his comic. But it wasn’t easy to focus on art when after years of silence, the cult that had killed his parents reappeared in a failed attempt to blow up parliament, and Harry’s teenage obsession the Soldier was rumoured to be involved.

    Or: in which Harry is a struggling comic book artist with minor obsession about the Winter Soldier, and Bucky, the Winter Soldier happens to be living in his shed.

    Summary

    His stranger tilts his head, staring for a while in a silence that was both peaceful and yet precarious at the same time, almost as if they were both waiting for something.

    Jaskier looks back, unthinking. “I’m Julian. Of the Pankratz family.”

    A nod. “ ‘m Geralt.”

    He tries the name in his mouth. “Geralt.” And then tries it a second time. “Geralt?… It suits you.”

    ~~

    Julian Alfred Pankratz is a strange omega lord, isolated from noble society for years in the Ward. Now that he’s finally returned, he finds that the only thing left for him to do is seek out suitable marriage contracts. Although he dreads the thought, perhaps a strange man from the garden can help him out.

    Finished chapter 8, reading as written. Julian has a twin and is trying to find a marriage for each of them because she's stuck in, essentially, a medical asylum.

    Summary

    Contrary to general belief, Letho of Gulet does have feelings. Has an abundance of them, in fact. Most Witchers do. So his problem isn't a lack of emotions as much as it is a lack of knowledge of what the hell most of them even are and what he's supposed to do about them when he's got them.
    -----
    Or, Letho and Geralt have known each other for decades. When Letho gets injured during a contract, Geralt finds him and offers to travel with him until he's well. Letho accepts - and though neither of them know it at the time, that choice will end up changing their lives forever.

    Finished chapter 22. The one where Geralt and Letho are idiots, with amazingly written fight scenes and perfect characterisation.
