Summary
Percy Jackson arrives at Camp Half-Blood bruised and bleeding, with the knowledge that he's the son of a god and his mother is dead. His little display with the Minotaur has caught the attention of the camp. But he’s not sure it is good attention, yet.
Only the Hermes Cabin's not-quite Co-counselor Theseus, ‘call me Theo,’ doesn't treat him like a fascinating zoo exhibit. Which would be a relief, except he looks exactly like Percy: same green eyes, same trouble making smile, same black hair. The only differences are the fact that Theo is six years older, covered in battle scars, and the black tattoo on his arm. A trident and the letters SPQR.
Theo is eighteen, powerful, and unclaimed. And his resemblance to Percy could set a dangerous precedent.

Summary
It took real effort to say, That's not my story. To say, I am doing something more important. I cannot be distracted, and I cannot run away.
"It's about killing that bastard," whispered Hermione to the spruce trees. "Nothing else matters."
***
March of '98. While Harry longs for the Hallows and Ron tries to make up for having walked out, Hermione does the actual work: cleaning, cooking, mending, and growing up much faster than she wanted to.Series

Summary
At the pub, the walls were painted a pine shade of green, the white of the ceiling exhausted by an old leak, frames dangling off nails, slightly tilted. John F. Kennedy having a pint, Ollie Campbell in dirty shorts and an Irish jersey, the tricolour flag hanging from behind the bar and a fading print of Poblacht Na hEireann by the door.
On game days, drunk and rowdy middle-aged men would congregate to watch Mayo lose every GAA final since 1951. They called it the ‘Mayo curse’ and the legend had it that after the team’s last triumph, the bus escorting the heap of victorious players had passed a funeral cortege on the road, and failed to pay proper respects. A catholic priest had placed a curse as punishment, and the county never won a final again.
So, come to think of it, maybe that’s why Dad never minded Mam’s post-wedding revelations much. In Ireland, even the Muggles believed in magic.

Reprise by Elfpen
Fandom: Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Original Trilogy, Star Wars Prequel Trilogy
17 Oct 2023
Summary
I began writing Reprise in November 2015, after having a hankering for a good time travel AU and then being unable to find one that fit my niche craving. I wrote chapters 1 through 3 as a casual experiment, a kind of character study of Ben Kenobi.
Five years and about half a million words later, here we are.
The series consists of four main parts:
Reprise I
Reprise II
Reprise III
Reprise IV (WIP)As well as a few supplementary entries:
The Visionary (fanart)
The Pragmatist (fanart)
Still Here (oneshot, set between Reprise III and Reprise IV but has spoilers for Reprise IV)Have fun reading!
