Summary
Everyone knows that the voices of the underground radio broadcast le sous-sol helped coordinate—and by most accounts, were the people behind—the overthrow of France’s former fascist regime. What we didn’t know (until now) was the truth about who those voices were, where they came from, and how they came to lead—and give their lives for—a revolution. Fortunately, new information has led researchers to one of the Friends of the ABC’s earliest hideouts, where they have found a variety of recordings and other paraphernalia that document the earliest days of that long, grueling fight for freedom.
So, for all you history buffs out there: these are those documents, scanned and transcribed with as much accuracy and fidelity as we could manage. This is the (surprisingly human) story of how le sous-sol began, and how it became the force that united a people in the name of freedom.

Summary
Charles was fifteen when his dæmon settled.
It was a perfectly average age to settle, and it happened so quietly and naturally that neither he nor Moira even noticed at first. They had other things to think about: today, they were aiming to beat out Ben Barnicoat and Max Verstappen at Val d’Argenton.
It wasn’t until they were getting into the kart that they realised. Moira normally transformed into an insect to race, something small enough that she could crawl inside Charles’s race suit and be protected as he drove. Today, she didn’t even try to change; they both just looked at each other, and knew.
“A mouse,” he said.

I credit this fanfiction for single handedly reawakening my interest in the NHL. No notes truly spectacular ✨️

Summary
“She’s like the drop-dead sexy babysitter I might have had as a teenager- you know the one that’s genuinely nice and caring but keeps up the slightest bit of professional distance between you? The one who, years later, you meet at a job where you’re on equal footing and you think Christ, she’s still so pretty and you’re no longer a kid but she keeps that distance because she won’t see you as anything else?”
Alex eyes his brother warily. “You need help, Marc.”
“I know!” The immediate response tells Alex that Marc’s sort of missed his point. “I’ve won the World Championship and she still sees me as a kid! What can I do?”

I love this. I often come back and re-read it. It's always somehow better than what I remember. Thank you for having written it 😊
