Summary
This is a prequel to Provoke Outrage, but you do not need to have read that work to understand this.
Alexander Hamilton, a poor kid from the Caribbean, meets new friends like John Laurens and Hercules Mulligan when he begins college (on a scholarship) in New York City. Relationships develop; troubled pasts are revealed. It's an election year, and Angelica Schuyler, a political science major, is president of the campus chapter of Students for Progressive Government.
Alex is chosen for an internship in the US Capital, where he gets to know Ben Tallmadge and Nathan Hale. When the political situation changes suddenly and drastically, Alex and his friends are swept up in the beginning of an insurrection against a despotic leader. The situation becomes chaotic and dangerous, and their lives are at risk. Despite that, they will stand together to protect liberty and the Constitution.Series

Summary
When her parents were arrested, Peggy grabbed her baby sister and ran. She ended up in New York City, living under a false identity with Gilbert duMotier, Marquis de Lafayette.
This story tells what happened during the three months between the day they met and the day they left New York City to take up full-time roles in the Movement to overthrow the cruel and illegal King government. It's part of the Provoke Outrage AU, but you can just read it as part of Peggy and Gil's love story. They're my OTP forever.
I'm not sure this warrants the E rating, maybe M would have done; it's certainly not all smut, but there are some very -- well, explicit scenes. Decide accordingly.Series

Summary
In this modern-day AU, the government has been taken over by the evil President George King. The Movement, led by Alex Hamilton, John Laurens, Angelica Schuyler, and Gil duMotier de Lafayette, is fighting to bring King down and restore the Constitution. Martha "Patty" Manning, a courier for the Movement, was engaged to Nathan Hale, and was pregnant when he was killed. With King's forces searching for her, she was smuggled out of New York to the Lafayette family castle, Chavaniac. Shortly thereafter, Danny Phoenix, John Laurens's right-hand man, was arrested on a trumped-up murder charge. Alex and the others broke him out of prison, and he too got out of New York with Lafayette's help. Now Danny and Patty find themselves in France, all contact with their friends and family cut off. Soon, though, they meet Blake Percy, his wife Maggie, and others who are helping to support the Movement from France.
This story overlaps both "I Like You a Lot" and "Provoke Outrage," but you don't need to have read those to understand it.Series

Summary
If you're reading I Like You a Lot, and you've been wondering if Gil ever finds a girlfriend who'd be interested in having the very large family that he dreams of, you'll find the answer. If you're reading or have read Provoke Outrage, you already know who she is, so here's a little fluffy (mildly smutty) story about my favorite couple. Either way, I hope you enjoy it.

Summary
A Valentine's Day ficlet from more or less the same AU as "Provoke Outrage," although you don't need to be following that to read this. This story takes place some years after the Second Insurrection of "Provoke Outrage" and assumes a positive outcome for that battle. It builds on the Peggy and Lafayette pairing that is the focus of that longer work and their future plans of a big house and lots of kids.

Summary
Nearly twenty years have passed since the Second Insurrection ended. Everything seems to be going fine. Then a couple of unexpected guests show up at Gil's fortieth birthday party, threatening the peaceful lives that everyone has been living and throwing them back into the secrecy, intrigue and possible danger of the Insurrections. Everybody has parts of their past that they want to keep concealed. If long silences have to be broken, what might happen not only to Alex and Eliza and John, but to the Republic itself, so recently re-established as a free government?
