Summary
In order to secure his throne in the New Order Galactic Empire, Kylo Ren (aka Benjamin Organa Skywalker Solo) needs to reinstate his blue blood, but seeing that Alderaan no longer exists, he has to enter into a marriage of convenience, and his last option is his pretty little Naberrie cousin.
Read the tags, please. This is inspired by the Ophelia trailer, but basically just an excuse for me to write some crack about galactic domination, courtship fluff and consensual smut.
Edited on 2019.1.15, a major rewrite of Chapter Four and Five, adding 3K words in total.

Summary
“It is time you finally married, my daughter.”
Those dreaded words.
It would be a lie if she said that she had hoped these words would never come.
---
Caught in undesirable circumstances, trapped into a marriage with one of her father's brown-nosing courtiers, Istelindë of Alqualondë has little choice but to accept her fate or take drastic measures to escape.
Drastic measures meaning getting married. To someone else. Who happens to also be a Kinslayer.
All she wanted out of this marriage was freedom. She didn't expect it to result in love. And she didn't expect it to come with six new siblings she can't help but want to see happy and content. And married. Some sisters and nieces and nephews would be nice.
Marrying off six more Kinslayers, though... That's going to be a challenge.

Summary
In the last weeks alone, Dolphus has officiated three weddings where either the groom or the bride were openly crying, surrounded by stone-faced relatives, one where an elderly aunt threw a screaming fit right in his face because the groom didn't live up to her expectations for her niece and one where everybody was so drunk on elf wine he's sure the couple will not even remember actually being married. But the fact remains that none of those occasions were quite as gloomy as this.
This couple, who have summoned Dolphus on what he thought would be his first day off work in about three months, doesn't even try to pretend to be happy.

Summary
It's a strange term, Napoleon thinks. Jolie laide. "Pretty-ugly". A self-contradiction, banal words elevated in American ears by the exoticism of French. He's never understood why it's applied to girls with strong jawlines and sharp features. "Vogue girls". He's always thought it much more fitting for those with frayed and damaged edges on the inside. For those with tangled snarls of history but hope for the future.
Maybe all three of them are jolie laide. In their own ways.
(Or, the fashion AU which was supposed to be short but sprouted wings and flew away from me, featuring photographer Illya, model Gaby, and Napoleon, who brings everyone together.)

Summary
Voldemort's possession of Harry during the events at the Department of Mysteries triggers a latent telepathic ability. Harry's mind begins reaching out to Riddle every night during his sleep, and Riddle takes advantage of that to cast Imperius on Harry, attempting to coerce him into murdering anyone and anything near him. Harry keeps the dreams quiet for fear of being locked up, but when he returns to school, he soon finds dealing with his nightmares and visions, not to mention flaky friends, unwanted advances, and a Snape who's more abusive than ever too much to handle alone. Will Harry survive when the entire world has turned against him and his closest ally comes from the last place he would ever expect?
AU notes: Harry is aged up one year to avoid underage issues. He is 16 at the start of the story, 17 in chapter 2, and 18 before any real romantic stuff begins.
Please note, this is an EPIC fic. It's over 389K and growing a bit as I edit. It won't go too far beyond that, but it won't be a short story either. Just a heads up.

Summary
Azshara stroked her thumb over Jaina’s lower lip. ”I think of you on your knees in front of me… Can you imagine it? I do not want another broken soul paying tribute to me. I want you.”
An image rose up in Jaina’s mind, a bright vision of her and Azshara: Jaina on her knees, her lips moving as she whimpered out pleas, sweat trickling down her neck – no. She shook her head and narrowed her eyes when Azshara laughed.
”There. You can see it, after all. Isn’t the thought of us together magnificent?”
”Stop playing your little games.”
Azshara moved closer. ”You like it.” Their lips were so close to each other that Jaina could feel Azshara’s breath.
”I do,” Jaina admitted, her voice a whisper.
Jaina Proudmoore, guilt-ridden and seeking atonement, casts herself as protector of Kul Tiras. In her pursuit to safeguard her home, she crosses paths with queen Azshara. What at first seems like conflicting interests soon becomes something else as they enter an uneasy alliance to strike at the heart of the corruption threatening the ruin of both.
