Summary
Ever since she’d been small, Hermione’s reward for good marks had been a rampage through a bookshop, so the day she tore open her O.W.L.s results and triumphantly brandished the eleven Outstandings, her beaming mother said, “We’ll go to Foyles tomorrow,” without any discussion required.

Summary
Paul blinked the sleep out of his eyes, and quickly looked down at his hands. The reality of the situation hit him like the slash of a crysknife.
These weren’t his hands.
Gone were the callouses gained from years in the desert, and the deep tan he had gained from the beating sun of Arrakis — Paul’s skin was the soft ivory it had been on Caladan.
“Impossible,” he whispered, but even as the word left his lips, Paul felt the truth of this place in his soul.
Summary: Paul Atreides has just defeated Feyd Rautha, when he is suddenly thrust into the past - back on his home planet of Caladan, where he is forced to confront his grief.

Summary
Brett doesn’t know too much about Matthew Murdock. Blinded as a kid, grew up in an orphanage after his father was killed, and unfortunate enough to get stuck with Foggy Nelson as a roommate. Brett knows that Murdock is smart. Summa cum laude doesn’t just happen, and Foggy had ranted to him enough times about his brilliant roommate making him feel like a slacker for earning just cum laude. What never fails to astonish Brett, however, is just how good Murdock is at recognizing people.
When a woman is attacked, Brett knows just the guy to ask for a description of the attacker.

Summary
Three weeks into their delightful slog across Westeros, during yet another charming day of shitting in the woods, eating half-raw squirrel, and trudging his feet bloody, the single most dour and uninteresting woman Jaime had ever met in all of Westeros stopped in the middle of a field, drew a deep breath, and said, “When I was seven, my aunt came to visit with her son. My father told me that as the daughter of the house, it was my duty to show hospitality to my guests and to be gracious to them. I wanted to make him proud. So for three weeks, I let my cousin follow me around and talk to me about spiders.”

Summary
“Gotham is filthy,” Damian says flatly, honestly. “I understand now why Mother sent me here instead of coming herself.”
Nightwing’s face is turned to the left, but the smile on his lips is audible. “It’s not all bad,” he says.
Damian thinks of Grayson, and the too-sweet donut he had given him, and the Chinese restaurant with the nice Asian lady and the park and the stray cat that had crossed through the grass in the darkness.
“No,” he admits grudgingly, “I suppose not.”
(Or, in a world where he was never sent to live with his father, Damian al Ghul is contracted to assassinate one Dick Grayson.)

Summary
The knife pushes thin along Dick’s carotid artery, cupping the indent between neck and jawline—forcing him to angle his chin. The metal is warm, pulled with execution speed from under Damian’s pillow.
“Okay,” Dick says quietly, tracking the intricacies of his own heartbeat—counting the space between breaths. “Guess I did need a shave.”
(With faltering steps, Dick and Damian become Batman and Robin.)

Summary
A very AU brief tale. What if Denethor had not perished in the pyre and also survived the battle before the Morannon? The former Lord Steward would have to get used to things being different. A (relatively) light-hearted follow on to Black Wing. Edit - Oops! Wrong title. The correct title is "Apprehension."
