Honestly? Reread! This was an amazing story and I loved the characterization and world-building.
Reeeeally like how Katata didn't just become a stay-at-home mom and do nothing after she was strongly characterized as driven, determined, and so compassionate she's willing to help just about anyone, even with her own struggles. 👍❤️

Summary
What if when we get to space and we find out that all our movies, stories, etc. where humans are weak and (honestly) pathetic compared to most of the species in the galaxy, were wrong. What if we are actually the strong ones? The crazy ones? The hard-to-kill ones? The dangerous ones? Or maybe even the adorably cute ones? The ones that will out-progress most other species because we take seemingly too big/stupid risks and it pays off? Or we are very good at looking at problems from different perspectives. etc. You get the point.

Summary
"Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."
Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.
"Really, uncle?"
"Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."
Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?

Summary
After her discharge from the Alliance, Commander Helen Trevelyan joined the Andromeda Initiative, wanting to leave her personal tragedies and a psycho ex-boyfriend behind her. She expected to sleep for 600 years, and wake up in a med bay. Instead, she crash-landed on a snow-covered mountain, ten-thousand years later. She is alone, confused, and dying from eezo radiation. And the only sign of civilization is an old church in the distance.
A Post-Modern Girl on Thedas fic.
Many, many thanks to my betas, Dreadlordcherrycake and Duinemerwen, who have advised me on all matters of lore, plausibility and verb tense. If it wasn't for them, this story would still be in cryo. Any mistakes are mine, not theirs.
I have a regular work schedule IRL, which means I don't have a regular update schedule on AO3. This story is visually supported.

Summary
Sequel to Hope's Calling. For Harry, things were looking up. He owned most of his freedom, he knew how to orchestrate a good time, he had at least one functioning relationship at any given time. It was all more or less under control. Several explosions later, Harry never thought he'd long for a time when his issues were as simple as some idiot blowing a hole in reality.

Summary
My (continued) take on the MGiME trope.
I've recreated my account and am continuing my orphaned pics. Full note in Chapter one.
Orla is reincarnated into the body of a young dam, and retains all her knowledge of the stories. But, she doesn't speak the language. She has great difficulty with dwarves Khuzdul, despite now being a dwarf, but picks up Inglishmek fairly easily.
Bifur finds this lost girl, and takes her in, claiming her as his daughter and helps her to learn to communicate again.
She tries to use her knowledge to help her new people, and change the course of the future.
Now if she could only figure out what Bofur meant when he kept trying to give her things she didn't need with money she knew they didn't have.

Summary
In so many stories, a girl from our world falls into Middle-Earth after she dies in some horrible accident. But what if it wasn't a one-time thing? What if you couldn't turn it off? What if every time you died, you woke up in another universe? It sounds cool at first, but eventually it would become a living hell, wouldn't it? Post-BoFA, but includes flashbacks to the quest. Fili/OFC. Some smut. Dark themes in later chapters.
