    Summary

    To the girl with the bushy hair and the hungry mind, the Hat says RAVENCLAW;

    To the boy with the scar and the ask of otherwise, the Hat says SLYTHERIN;

    To the sixth son who has already chosen the two others, from a chance encounter on a train, the Hat says HUFFLEPUFF;

    and Flitwick is delighted and Sprout is intrigued and Snape is resigned, to say the least.

    Or: Perhaps the trio is inevitable everywhere, but in this variation, none of them are in Gryffindor, and they do their best to build things anyway.

    Summary

    A series to contain Sam's various original works set in the "Shivadhverse". The stories center around the royal family of Askazer-Shivadlakia, "The little country by the sea", one of the few democratic monarchies in the world with Europe's only Jewish royal family. The series follows the lives of the newly crowned King Gregory III, his fiance the American celebrity chef Eddie Rambler, his father King Emeritus Michaelis and his partner Jes Deimos, Jes's son Noah, Michaelis's nephew Gerald the Duke of Shivadlakia, Gregory's maternal cousin the lady Alanna Daskaz, and various other friends and family.

    Fete For A King tells the story of how Gregory fell in love with Eddie while Gregory was supposed to be looking for a proper husband and Eddie was supposed to be catering his coronation.
    Infinite Jes explains how podcast journalist Jes Deimos and their son Noah came into the life of the retired king Michaelis, who wasn't looking for romance but found it anyway.
    The Lady And The Tiger finds the Lady Alanna Daskaz and His Grace Gerald, Duke of Shivadlakia, discovering new love while engaging in political intrigue (and occasional tiger-wrangling) abroad.

    Summary

    In a slightly less brutal version of Gotham, things gradually become okay, and perhaps even lovely.

    One-shots all set within the same general continuity; no need to read in order.

    Summary

    Tim’s been having a really bad week.

    Not that his weeks are ever good, these days. Not since Batman kidnapped him, almost four years ago now. Not since he had realized what Batman wanted him for.

    +++

    Feat: What was going on upstairs in "Another Mirror," plus what happens after Damian gets out of that containment cell.

    Summary

    “Sirius. What have you done?”
    “Why do you always assume I’ve done something?”
    “Sirius.”
    “…Nicked a baby.”
    “WHAT?”

    It’s interesting, isn’t it, that Sirius Black managed to narrowly avoid prison, and yet he ended up on the run from the law anyway?
    This is what happens when a desperate man kidnaps his godson and drags his ex (who he’s probably still in love with but he doesn’t want to talk about that) across the country as they hide from Albus Dumbledore, a group of angry housewives and the entire Ministry of Magic. This is what happens when two men who are grieving and angry at the world and each other have to pull it together for the sake of a child who is the greatest little legacy James Potter could have left behind.
