Summary
He'd never imagined this is what untethered existence could look like, because when he had time, a couple of years or decades ago, it was hard to imagine the depth of the wounds. Later it was hard to imagine recovery, as one faltering look towards the gashes opened them up deeper, and there was pain, so much of it. Now, somehow, he's getting better.
(Cas tells Dean that he's allowed to.)

Summary
Hiccup's desperately trying to figure out what exactly is the deal with Burgess ever since he moved in. He keeps dreaming of a lake. Or more specifically, drowning in one. He knows there's a lake, but there are no photos, no maps to where this lake is. Hiccup knows it exists, because the other residences know about it too, but whenever he asks for details they seem to know nothing, baring a few exceptions, and Hiccup can't help but feel like he's going insane.
All of this, somehow, leads to him giving Jack Frost a four hour car ride. Jack, who's the center of all of this in one way or another.

Summary
Upon hearing the prophecy, Lily Potter chooses differently. She brokers a deal with her once-enemy, and instead of an equal, her son is marked as something else entirely. Now raised under Lord Voldemort’s reign, Harry Potter grows up with doctrine in his ears and a leash at his throat, forced into a careful charade of false obedience. He thinks it should be easy to maintain the lie, but a single misstep—a locket found where no one was meant to look, brimming with a life of its own—sets off a violent shift, yanking him into a web that winds, inevitably, back to the Dark Lord.

Summary
What if Triwizard Tournament, but Hunger Games?
Centuries ago, instead of hiding from muggles with the Statute of Secrecy, wizards used a ritual to create a dimension for all magical beings to live openly. But maintaining that freedom comes at a lethal price. Every seven years, the worthiest students in Europe have the great honour of being selected to compete in a tournament: three deadly tasks, two months of training, one victor. Grindelwald’s Ministry demands it. But certain troublesome students only follow rules which happen to align with their own plans.
Tom Riddle intends to win. Harry Potter refuses to lose. From rivalry comes respect, and an intense interest that, once sparked, refuses to burn out. They are binary stars locked in orbit in a world built to break them apart. But the world doesn’t define them, their choices do: what they decide to fight for, and who they choose to trust. If they get those right, they might be able to define the world.
