    Summary

    Based off this Tumblr text post by s4mm4n:
    God I miss the days when you could show up to a strangers farm and he’d say “Whats your name, boy?” and you’d take off your hat and hold it to your chest to better let him see your face and reply “Why I aint got one sir, on account of my mammy passed on before she could give me one” and he’d tell you he’s real damn sorry to hear that and ask what he can do for you and you’d tell him that you can’t read nor even write neither but you’re mighty good with horses and can mend them fallen fence posts what you saw on your way in and won’t ask for nothing much more than a hot meal and a warm barn to sleep in and he’d keep his wife and daughters inside but send his boy who aint for married even though his mama tells him he needs a woman out with a lantern and some stew at night and the two of you’d get to talking and he’d throw you his flask to take a swig from and watch you drinking from it while he leant against the door frame and when he finally got called back on up to the house again he’d take a sip from it too real slow-like like it weren’t the whiskey what he were tryna savor

    WARNING: Halfway through this story, it becomes about family loss and tuberculosis.

    Summary

    They didn't know how it happened or why it happened - the Force was involved, of course. But now thrown into the past, just after the Battle of Naboo and nearly 10 years before the start of the Clone Wars, Luke and Leia know they have been given a rare opportunity to not just make things better, but to make them right.

    Trying to think of where to begin, Leia brings up that much of the acceptance of the Jedi purges was due to the growing perception that Jedi were more interested in making war than the peace they spoke of. Luke's New Jedi Order had been struggling to overcome it even now. One of Palpatine's greatest victories that even with his defeat and the collapse of the Empire, still pervaded much of the Mid- and Inner-Rim, to say nothing of the Core. Propaganda and control of information had been a keen weapon in the Emperor's arsenal.

    Luke's fascination with the fact that there were actual holomovies about Jedi before the purges gives Leia an idea - one she doesn't have much trouble convincing her brother to go along with. All she had to say was "we're gonna fuck with the old man" and Luke Skywalker, Jedi Actor stepped into the limelight.

    Summary

    “What did she mean to her,” Ciri bluntly asks after a while. The question’s escaped her but now she can’t take it back. She wishes she could when Geralt remains quiet and a slight frown appears on his face. He doesn’t know, she realizes. Or he does not want to tell her.

    And that, in itself, is the beginning of an answer.

    Summary

    No one had seen it coming. How could they? This strange phenomenon was born of an unprophesied brush of the planes.

    But it was undeniable — as undeniable as the names now etched on their bodies.

    They were to mean something to each other.

    ---

    Yennefer and Tissaia wrestle with their fate as soulmates. What will it take for them to finally bend to love?

    Summary

    This wasn’t her Clint. Normally, it was quiet, sweet. He made love to her. But this was… Clint was a different beast entirely tonight. It was like he was someone else.
    Or was fucking someone else.

    Or the winding trail that led Clint and Laura to the love of their life. A bumpy road to be sure, but one with wonderful rewards along the way.

    Now with even more absolutely stunning art by TheMissingMask!

    Summary

    Draco stares at Hermione across the lake, his upper lip curling with distaste.

    Beads of sweat drip down her flushed cheeks, long messy curls sticking to the side of her face. Her dirt covered hands ruin her white dress as she holds it, hiked up high enough to show the curve of her smooth golden thighs.

    She steps into the water, completely oblivious to him.

    Granger may have grown up in his world but she’s nothing like the pureblood girls who were born into it. Pansy, Daphne, Astoria all with their neatly tailored robes, lithe bodies, and pale flawless skin. All demure omegas with impeccable breeding. They don’t have squib mothers or golden skin inherited from muggle fathers. They are too well groomed to ever have ink stains on their face or frizzy unkempt hair — too well trained to look at him with anything other than a shy glance and a soft smile. They certainly don’t have doe eyes that burn with defiance or curves that make his fingers twitch. No, they are nothing like Hermione Granger.

    Summary

    “’Twas not I who sold thee, Piglet. There are others more deserving of your contempt.”

    “Yet it is a thing owned solely by myself, an object beyond even your wicked reach. I dare say I shall let my whim have free reign when it comes to whom I shall despise.”

    Or, an exploration of Tissaia and Yennefer, her Piglet, from the start.

    I'm obsessed with them and have been thinking about writing this for a while.

    Tissaia might be a bit of a creep.

    Piglet, Piglet, Piglet.

    We'll see where this goes.

    Summary

    Ashildr met her eyes, knowing Clara Oswald had a plan she would not like. She also knew she would help no matter her own misgivings because she could do nothing else. Maybe she had been wrong about The Doctor. Maybe Clara, with her hope, her compassion and her eyes, maybe she was the dangerous one.

    * * *

    […]“I know there is something off about you and it isn’t just that this might be the end for us or that you have a new regeneration. It’s like part of you isn’t here,” River expounded.

    The Doctor chuckled ruefully, looking up to meet River’s eyes.

    River held his eyes with her own and saw a glimmer of the battle waging inside him. She reached up to his cheek tentatively.

    “What is it Doctor?” she asked softly.

    * * *

    Oswin tried again to open her eyes and was surprised when it worked. She found herself laying down with her head in Nina's crosslegged lap, tight black curls framing her deep chestnut skin.

    Summary

    Slow burn from Four Marks which diverts at What Is Lost when Tissaia helps Yennefer escape before Cahir’s execution. They (eventually) live happily ever after. Basically me needing to fix things after watching S02.

     

    TW for self harm (comparable to the show), blood and blood transfusion. I get icked by blood transfusion a bit and will put a note in of how to avoid it when we get to that chapter.

     

    Thanks to mydear for tireless beta-ing (although any remaining errors are certainly mine). This is so so much better because of your input - you're usually right, although the fact you are is sometimes very annoying... ; )

    Also thanks to:
    -troiing for enlightening me with a different perspective on the Tissaia’s seemingly incongruous response to Yennefer trying to levitate the rock.
    -peace_love_on_the_planet_earth for helping with various word finding pleas
    -the ladies amirite server generally for pondering with me, answering questions, and all around gender-neutral fan-ing

    Also thanks to various transcript sites cause they were very helpful!
