    Summary

    There was another student here.

    Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.

    It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.

    Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.

    This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

    Summary

    "When the woman finally stepped into the moonlight, Yaz’s eyes went wide as her breath caught in her throat.

    Blonde hair framing a soft face and eyes shining with mischief, the woman shifted to let one hand rest lazily on her hip as her lips curled into a satisfied smirk. She was dressed in black breeches, a black shirt and a deep purple jerkin that was hugging the dip just above her hips.

    “I have to say”, the woman said as she slowly walked towards Yaz, “from what I was told, I hadn’t expected Koschei’s little toy to be this…” – she kneeled down, a cool finger grazing over Yaz’s jaw and sending shivers down her spine – “pretty.”"

    The roleswap AU for Never Cruel or Cowardly, or: what if Juliannah was the evil Lord Mistress of Karn, and maybe, just maybe, Yaz didn't mind being abducted by the blonde quite as much as she should?

    Summary

    Clara Oswald had always dreamed of being a household name. Teacher of English by day and larcenist of the rich by night, her alter ego’s crimes have left her at the top of a very long list - and not the kind she’d always aspired to.

    Detective Chief Inspector John Smith has spent twenty years cleaning up the streets of Glasgow. Returning to the capital under extreme duress, he’s as surprised as anyone else when the case of the Impossible Girl lands on his desk.

    When their worlds collide, it will put both of them to the test…

    Summary

    Being reborn with her memories intact was pretty great. Being reborn into a world plagued by war was a little less great.

    Being reborn literally decades before canon events fucking sucked.

    Senju Tsunade wants what she was previously denied: a long, peaceful life, a family that loves her and a job that brings her purpose. Instead she gets life as a career killer, a family destined to die before she reaches adulthood and no job prospects that wouldn't include murder.

    Awesome.

    This story was tailored to create a believable romance for Orochimaru that neither redeems him nor portrays him as a toxic, possessive, obsessive monster. The first part of the story will focus on Tsunade to show how she becomes the sort of person that could have a relatively healthy relationship with someone like him.

    The fic is COMPLETE.

    UPDATE July 2025: I'm working on a podfic! You can find it here
