    Summary

    After being resurrected, Lord Voldemort completes a magically-binding blood-adoption ritual on Harry Potter as a way to circumvent the protections Lily placed over the boy.

    It should have been simple: make the boy his, kill him, bask in his victory.

    Only, Harry is not just connected to him any more. They are not just blood-linked and inheritance linked. They are soul linked.

    Harry's very presence sooths Voldemort's paranoia and mends his insanity. Tom is feeling emotions again. Harry's and his own.

    He has desires beyond power.

    He feels... love.

    This new equilibrium places both Tom and Harry in incredible danger.

    If Albus Dumbledore and his blasted Order of the Phoenix realize that Harry is keeping Tom both immortal and sane, he will be killed.

    Tom will spiral back into Voldemort.

    He needs allies.

    Summary

    He feels himself starting to doze off, finally, but is woken quickly by the feeling of the mattress shifting. He sighs soft – he won’t be getting much sleep at all tonight if Rowan moves so much in his sleep. Suddenly, his breath hitches and his eyes fly open. He looks to his side. Rowan has rolled over, onto his stomach. He is laying on his side, and his arm has draped over Viktor’s chest, his face tucked against the outside of Viktor’s shoulder.
    Viktor's heart races.

     

    OR

    Viktor's had a crush on his roommate, Rowan, for two years. Rowan has had a crush on him for two years. Nobody is telling anyone anything. When Viktor invites Rowan into his bed after a nightmare, just to quite literally sleep together, antics begin to ensue.

    Told in rotation between the two years before the sleeping together (before) and the months immediately after the sleeping together (now).

    Summary

    Harveste began like this - another inconspicuous day in a slew of boring days, starting off with a perfunctory visit to the market, messing about with what could possibly be a very silly idea, and ending in a sense of accomplishment and the first installment. The day after that, buoyed into hitherto unfamiliar levels of ecstasy by readers’ comments (seriously, thank you so much to my first readers), the second installment. And then it just snowballed from there: the researching, the planning, watching and searching out all the little macabre details in a feverish giddy rush.

    My absolute favorite project, hands down, and the one I’ve had the most progress with. I’m quite proud that this is the first contribution I’ll be making to AO3, and I’m certain it won’t be the last. I hope this inspires me to continue and finish what I’ve started, because dear Harveste deserves that.

    Summary

    When Astarion awakens in the aftermath of the Nautiloid crash, it is not to a friendly face but the press of goblin steel against his cheek.

    Now a captive of the Absolute, he is left starving and huddled in the corner, waiting for the beast that shares his cell to finally strike.

    Bears, after all, are not known to be the most gracious killers.

    Summary

    Deaf to her sister's pleas, she stopped in front of the grave, and directly across from the devilish debonair. Neither of them spoke, neither of them addressed the corpse at their feet. It was as if the rest of the world had fallen away. Slowly, he lowered his cigar, jaw hanging slack. He was truly beautiful. She tried desperately to still her hammering heart, her hand resting just below the collar of her black dress. His pupils dilated. Her heart beat faster still.

    Those wild, glittering brown eyes.

    They reminded her of something.
    _____

    From the moment they laid eyes on each other at that fateful funeral, Morticia and Gomez were inexplicably drawn to each other. Unbeknownst to them both, this is not the first time they have met, and they have more in common than they realize.
