Summary
A companion piece to A Study in Resonance.
Grimmauld Place was not a haunted house -- but Sirius was haunted by it nevertheless. For six months, he sheltered Harry, Ron, and Hermione from the war. For four months, he battled the locket. For one month, he lived alone, with only the half-remembered ghosts of his past to keep him company. Through it all, the house watched, and it listened, and it waited.
(Or, an exploration of what it might mean to have a haunted house in a world where magic and ghosts are very much real, and one's greatest enemy is one's own mind).
Contains spoilers for A Study in Resonance, specifically the chapters that cover HP books 6 and 7.

Summary
This series started as just a one-shot to help people with AO3's CSS for making work skins. Then I added a piece on making series. Then it... snowballed. I don't expect to add further tutorials, but I hadn't expected to write these either. I'm calling the series complete, but who knows (one thing that keeps nudging me is to take the statistics and show how fics' half-lives vary, for example; another is putting all weird AO3 fixes into one spot).
NB: If you're wondering, please see How to make and fix a series on AO3 (in this series with the tutorial on CSS work skins for fonts, which made that link become underscored blue ink [assuming that your browser settings, site skin, and third party apps didn't prohibit it]).
Cf. the CSS Abuse and HTML Tryhard collection, as a whole.

Summary
“Come into the light,” he said slowly.
“You don’t need it to see me.” The voice was so familiar, so unbearably familiar.
“Nonetheless.”
After a moment there was motion among the trees, and the firelight fell on the figure of a solitary man, his feet bare and his hair unbound, wrapped in plain grey. Finrod didn’t rise to greet him, but lifted his head and looked him up and down: the slender frame, the tension in his bearing, the features whose fineness bordered on delicacy.
“Curufinwë Atarinkë,” he said at last, giving each syllable of the name its full weight. “You look awful.”

Summary
It was not with heavy heart that Paladin Took approached the Bird's Nest. But his ribs might've been weighty and his liver positively annoyed, and not just from the many fine ales and finer wines he'd consumed throughout his life. It was that damn Lotho again, Lotho Sacksville-Baggins from up Hobbiton way with his air and his Big Men—well, two could play at that game! And if anyone was going to be calling themselves "Chief" in this day and age, it would be the right and proper Thain of the Shire!
His blood up, he knocked rather hard on the oversized door. "Maggie! Are you in there? Open up!"

Summary
Enslaved by gods, saved by a monster - Koala is just a little girl, but even she can tell there's something wrong with that.
It takes her a lot of growing, and a lot of learning, and meetings with many, many people until she can put it into words properly and choose a path forward, but in the end, she manages.
This is her justice.- Language:

Summary
Rider's final instruction to Waver was thus: "Live, Waver. See all of this to the end. And when it is done, speak of it. Of your king."
This is how Waver saw it through to the end and how he accomplished his own goals in the process.
Note as of April 2020: Series was written before Case Files was written or an anime, and reflects inaccuracies and headcanons that have since been jossed.

"I one day wanna see a One Piece AU where everyone actually speaks different languages. Like, perhaps there’s a language that’s spoken in 95% of the world and everyone is bilingual."
Expanding on the above prompt, what would happen if everyone on the Grand Line really did speak different languages? A couple of little explorations done here and there.

Summary
Hey Medea! Hey Clytemnestra! Hey Penelope!
Are you sure this story is a tragedy?
Will you let it end without a single line,
Having so neatly severed the ties that bind?Or will you sail and will you dig and will you rise,
To avert what the Doomsman prophetized?
Play now, lest strums the bard with one hand seared,
There’s already an end to this tale, one of unnumbered tears.The wives of Maglor, Caranthir, and Curufin break out of Valinor and into Angband in a last ditch effort to avert the Nirnaeth Arnodiad. They pick up a few friends along the way.
