Summary
In the Agallamh na Seanórach, long after the deaths of Fionn Mac Cumhail and many of the other warriors, Caílte Mac Rónáin and Fionn’s son Oisín recite the Deeds of Fionn to an interested St Patrick. St Patrick asks them where their best hunting has been, and Oisín answers, on the Isle of Arran, at Lammas. High above the sea its summit; dear its green growth, rare its bogland; blue island of glens, of horses, of peaked mountains, oaks and armies...
It was there that he was happiest, Paddy says, and there he returns.

Summary
Let’s talk about a Susan who never moved on, who buried her family in English soil and spent the rest of her life trying to find her way home. She did not believe lions were kind, but she always remembered a bow in her schoolgirl hands.
She looked in every old wardrobe she came across. It was casual, everyday– the first day in a new lecture hall, she checked the back of the coat closet. Friends had her over for Christmas dinner and she excused herself to go the bathroom, checked every cabinet and closet, and then headed back in for pudding. She went home with a cute boy she met in a smoky little pub and she checked his wardrobe before she headed home the next morning, heels in hand.
She also went to college, got a political science degree she had to fight for. She got a byline in the local paper, a few ladies’ magazines, then a larger regional publication.
She had mimosa brunches with friends. She read detective novels, never touched fantasy, and finally one day she stepped through an old stone archway barely thinking about it and–-
She was standing in a treeless plain, all yellow grass and blue blue skies.

Summary
Will Graham's daemon is unsettled, unspeaking, and halfway to feral, but if she's broken then isn't that because he is? She's a piece of him, and he's very certain that all of his madness hasn't been neatly excised into her body alone. She's made out of him, or he out of her; it's the same thing.

Summary
Elodieunderglass started all this by talking about Killie and O Holy Thunder on tumblr. And then posting a sketch of O Holy Thunder as a dragon. To which I said:
"Temeraire setting would mean that O Holy Thunder's name is Killie's fault, right? Would Killie be from a dragon dynasty family, or did this tiny Irish bastard accidentally hatch and name a dragon?"And then this story haunted and vexed me for 5 days until I wrote it in one afternoon.
