Summary
Timothy Drake is a liar.
Timothy Drake is a lie.
And he's been damn good at ensuring that no one in his life figures either of those things out. But when a new face comes into his life with an offer of friendship, a solution to a problem, and a charming smile, who seems to know too much about him, he risks losing the thread of his life and his lies completely, and potentially unraveling the family and the life he has woven for himself.
As the threads become more tangled and people start to get hurt, Tim is forced to reckon with a secret he's kept since before he can remember and his complex relationship with the woman who raised him.

Summary
"It’s Panem. Maybe in another world you could have been different, but you’re not. You can’t be. So - you’re right. Whatever you’ve done, everything you’ve ever done, you’re always right, and I hate you so much for it I could scream.”
Mycroft Holmes, from District One, wins the 59th Hunger Games at the age of fourteen - joining a pool of Victors who do not trust him, entering the decadent netherworld of Panem's Capitol.
Over the next decade, he becomes the backbone of Snow's Presidency.
This is the genesis of a revolution.

Summary
Being a freshman piano performance major at a prestigious New England conservatory is difficult enough without landing the school's star baritone as your singer, and inevitably, your hopeless crush.
Ah, the boy's eyes
So sweet and clear to me,
and something radiates from them
that wins my whole heart.With those sweet eyes
He looks into my own!
If he should see his image in mine,
He would surely greet me lovingly.And so I surrender myself entirely,
Just to serve his eyes,
For something radiates from them
That wins my whole heart.(While this story is part of a series it works perfectly well as a stand-alone, so you don't need to read anything else to have this make sense.)
Now available as podfic too, read by the lovely pennyplainknits with music assistance by xenakis:

Summary
Arthur wakes up and realizes the last ten years of his life have been a dream. He is nineteen, and he can barely remember where he is. What he can remember is the ghost of Eames’ hands pressed down on his chest trying frantically to stop the blood flooding up around his fingers as Arthur died (as he woke up).

Summary
There’s a crime scene board set up off to one side. Bruce wanders over to examine it while Batman goes about preparing the tests he’ll want to complete to make sure Bruce isn’t going to tear the fabric of spacetime apart.
He vaguely remembers this case. It was already a cold case even by the time Dick arrived, a murder whose trails had gone nowhere. It was one of the files he’d dusted off and given to Tim to practice his skills.
He hums approvingly as he studies the board. Tim’s getting close - once he finds the witness Bruce had overlooked the first time, he’ll have the lead he needs to crack the case.
Then he frowns, touching one of the photos of the building. It’s not one of the original crime scene photos, nor one of the ones Bruce himself had taken when the crime was fresh. Tim must have gone himself to take them after Bruce gave him the case.
Pride sparks in his chest, twisted with shame.
“Have you looked at this?” he asks, raising his voice enough for his younger self to hear him over by the monitors.
Batman grunts, glancing over and then away again. “It’s a cold case,” he says. “Robin’s been working on it.”
“I know that,” Bruce responds. “Have you looked at it?”

Summary
Tim wakes up inexplicably in his two-year-old body. Which: odd. But just think, how many people would kill to have an opportunity to redo their life! And Tim has so much he wants to change, so much he wants. He wants to feel important to Bruce. He wants to be Dick's favorite. He wants Jason (his childhood hero) to think he's cool. He wants Damian to need him. And really, is it manipulation if his family benefits from it?
Or: He was halfway through the second trash can, when a startled “Good lord” caught him off guard. Tim glanced up, the rhythmic sucking of his pacifier coming to a still at the sight of a black Rolls Royce idling at the side road that lead to Wayne Manor. Alfred was staring at him from the over the car top, aghast. “Master Bruce, it’s not a raccoon.”
From the back seat, Bruce Wayne stared at him. Tim stared back.
Or: Tim is side tracked by his actual childish needs and wants, gets a whole bunch of his nannies fired, terrorizes his parents with a series of petty revenges, is an honest employer of one (1) newly minted murderer for hire, endears himself to – and thoroughly weirds out – the Waynes, and is generally just a petty, manipulative, vindictive, smol boy.

Summary
Thomas and Martha Wayne are Gotham's most famous martyrs. They used to be a wife and a husband, a mother and a father, doting parents. They could also be cunning, wicked, glamorous, decadent; an heir and a gold-digger, beautiful people in a beautiful house. It takes a certain kind of parents to make a man like Bruce Wayne, and Alfred can't take all the blame. He can't even take most of it.

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
Six students at Taharim, found dead in their dorms in half as many months, overdosed on the same previously unknown drug found on the bodies of rescued sky-walkers. All evidence points to a Grysk plot to destroy the Ascendancy from within. Senior Captain Thrawn and Mid Commander Eli Vanto go undercover at Taharim Academy to root out this conspiracy. What they find may have far reaching consequences, both for themselves, and for the Ascendancy.
The 21 Jump Street inspired Thranto fic no one asked for, but I wrote anyways.

28 Dec 2023

Summary
The name is on the tip of Varian's tongue. The syllables press against the back of his teeth, itching to be let out but never taking shape. It's like dust falling softly on a Sunday morning; it's a thousand tons of iron slamming behind his ribs; it's a virus buried in his blood and sinew. He can't explain why he feels so empty without it, like a piece of his soul is missing. He can't help but think he's lost something -- or someone -- very, very important.
Or, Varian wakes up in the body of a boy he's never met in a kingdom he's never visited. He learns to adapt to Hugo's strange lifestyle, clumsily navigating a sense of normalcy with no memory of what happened the day before.
Until the day he can't.

Summary
“Some people want to be the apple of your eye, the song in your heart, the spring in your step… but I just want to be the eye of your storm.” - James Bond, to Q
When an amnesiac kid is brought to St. Joseph's Home for orphans, James Bond doesn't bat an eye. Orphans come and go, and he's been around long enough to know that he needs to look out for himself until he's old enough to leave. But this new orphan is small, and naive, and his guilelessness attracts trouble. But when this kid latches onto Bond with a loyalty that James has never had before, well... staying aloof might not be as easy as James had thought.

Summary
"Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”
“What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.
“Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

Summary
Kon gets sick then Tim gets sick. They take care of each other along the way.
“It’s just a cold,” he said. There was no hiding the horrible rasp in his voice, but he tried to sit up and look as healthy as possible.
Kon looked at him like he was insane. He was back to feeling 100% and certainly looked it. Something about the light in his eyes, the bounce in his hair, and his sun-kissed, clear skin made Tim feel particularly like gum scraped off the bottom of a shoe. He coughed again— a horrible, hacking sound.
