    Summary

    The city is unusually quiet tonight. Oh, sure, he’s had his usual crimes: muggings, drug deals, a few break ins. Nothing special. Nothing that could possibly explain the thread of tension winding through him, slowly tightening like a noose. Ever since last night, his spidey senses have set off at a low, maddening hum, distracting him, needling him, filling him with a restless energy that’s robbed him of restful sleep. He’s used to dealing with his super powered anxiety, but this feels different somehow. More ominous. And what’s weirder is that other people seem to be a little more wary, a little more on edge than usual, too. Cops, firefighters, even one of the guys Peter caught snatching a purse commented on it from his web cocoon on a street light.

    “You feel that, Spidey? The city’s all weird tonight. Feels like the whole place is holding its breath, waiting on something.”

    Summary

    AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

    Summary

    After the Triwizard Tournament, Hermione Granger returns to a world that has always demanded she make herself smaller — and chooses not to anymore.

    Born into a powerful Muggle Russian mafia family and trained as its strategist, Hermione has always lived between masks. Viktor Krum, heir to a formidable Bulgarian wizarding dynasty, sees through them immediately. Their connection begins with courtship governed by old laws, quiet gifts, and deliberate restraint — and deepens into something far more dangerous: alignment.

    As Hogwarts politics turn vicious, underworld threats test Moscow’s patience, and jealousy masquerades as concern, Hermione proves she is no one’s weakness. Viktor does not save her. He stands with her.

    This is not a story about spectacle or conquest.
    It is about two people who choose each other — without apology, without permission — and build something that lasts.

    Summary

    One thing about Eddie Diaz is that he does not believe in the universe, destiny, fate, or whatever you like to call it. Especially when it comes to love. He did once and learned his lesson the hard way. No amount of every pot has a lid; you’ll find someone when you stop looking, or other platitudes from his Abuela could ever change his mind. And trust him at almost 45, he’s heard a lot.
    So yeah, with a failed marriage, two disastrous (straight) relationships, a whole bunch of (gay) first dates, and one glorious (but very short) gay relationship under his belt, Eddie Diaz does not believe in fate.
    That is, until he crosses paths with one Evan Buckley on a bright Tuesday morning, some time in February.
    It goes something like this.

    or

    Eddie and Buck meet in their forties and get together
