    Summary

    Harry Potter escaped the Dementors at the end of his third year. He saved his godfather. He saved a goddamned hippogriff. But for the first time, he couldn't save everyone.

    Someone died who wasn't supposed to die, and it's all the Author's fault. The Author messed up, you see. Their Story is projected on a world, and it can only change so much about how that world works.

    Cracks have appeared in the Narrator's control for the first time. It still controls Harry's every move, but the settings, the context, its hold there is weakening, and more and more people are going off script as changes accumulate. Harry and Riddle have been given an inch. How far they can make it stretch remains to be seen. More importantly, they've been given hope. It came at a high price, but they know now that the Author can mess up.

    And seeing as the Author doesn't really seem to know anything about the world they're influencing, it's probably only a matter of time until they mess up again.

    Summary

    It's a wonderful life for one Katarina Claes. Sure, she may have died young as a teenager in Japan all those years ago, but now she's living her best life as a rich college student in the Windy City of Chicago, Illinois. It's weird her best friends are characters from a visual novel she played that one time though. Weirder still, she's named after that visual novel's main villainess - who was slated to die no matter what happened. With her plans to fight her imminent doom - her death flags, if one would - and her all-around attractive childhood friends at her side, nothing can stand in her way of living to a ripe old age!

    … Too bad someone - or something - is targeting her and her friends, huh? How'd that happen, anyway? And what's this about a Wizard living in Chicago who advertises in the phonebook?

    A crossover between Destruction Flag Otome and The Dresden Files, where the main cast of Hamefura is born in the Dresden Files world. Considering everything that goes bump in the night, they're probably doomed. Probably.

    Takes place between White Night and Small Favor in the Dresden Files.

    Summary

    Assisted Combat Personnel Armor - ACPA, for short.

    The highest-spec infantry of the long-gone 2020s, rendered outdated by time and cyberware advancements - no longer the Knights of the modern battlefield, and largely discarded by corporate militaries as cost-ineffective boondoggles, but still powerful. Still dangerous.

    On the streets of Night City, any advantage will be pursued. And so Junkerknights still work as mercs, doing the jobs nobody else has the weight of metal to pull off. Their safe haven? The Round Table, naturally.

    And the Round Table's finest intend to demonstrate that their era isn't past just yet.

    ----

     

    BTW, huge thanks to Image, Dollar Store Belisarius, and CB_Otaku over on Spacebattles. They provided Tumble, Cranson, and Troy respectively back when these OC ideas were just CYOA fodder for Seat_Admiral's The New Man.

    Summary

    "Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem". State motto of Massachusetts. A hexamer, and with the preceding segment, it reads: "Manus haec inimica tyrannis ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem." Translated?

    "This hand, an enemy to tyrants, seeks with the sword peaceful repose under liberty."

    War never changes. But the world it's fought in does. And unfreezing someone a day early? That can change everything.

    Summary

    An SI story.
    Most SIs get powers, or start off weak, or any of a multitude of ideas...but all, or at least most, remain human.
    Most One Piece SIs meet up with the Straw Hats, join their crew, and have some very entertaining adventures.
    This poor bastard gets neither.
    Follow Yoshimura Kaneki through the South Blue and beyond, as he joins a crew that, for better or for worse, is destined for infamy...
    Now comes with TVTropes.

    Now completed! The sequel will kick off once One Piece finishes, because Oda keeps curveballing the plot and the only solution left is to wait until he's done.

    Apparently permission statements are in vogue now so: if you feel inspired to art about this, go to town, my ego can always use some buttressing.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Darker, grittier, and very referential. Obviously inspired by This Bites, but takes the story away from the canon One Piece plot to be unique.
