    Summary

    The Old One, The Sleeping Beast, Seeker of Blood and Devourer of Souls, Haunting Abomination of the Darkened Woods, woke to find his sacred grounds were no longer there.

    The new ways are more than a bit confusing, but there's no reason an ancient god can't adapt with the times.

    Summary

    “He’s outside,” Han says, biting back a sigh. “Communing with nature.”

    Leia frowns. “He’s what?”

    “I dunno, maybe it’s a Jedi thing.” Han waves a hand. “I caught him sitting out by that waterfall a couple times, just staring at the river. I didn’t ask.”

    Luke destroyed the Death Star and saved the day, and Wedge stood in the crowd and watched him get a medal of commendation and wondered what that must feel like. Luke grinned and bounced on his heels while Wedge gnawed on the inside of his cheek, tasting copper and bile and thinking of dead friends, of the shudder of the laser cannons impacting his engine — the red warning lights that flashed across his cockpit and the screech of his astromech and Luke demanding he get clear.

    In which what was meant to be a silly fic about Luke's farmboy water obsession turned into a story about grief, mourning, culture shock and friendship.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the destruction brought by the conflict between Zion and Khepri, the boundaries between worlds were weakened just enough for a wounded girl to slip through.
    Some time after, a second girl resolved to trade every moment spent in the first's absence to follow her.

     

    Not long after Gold Morning, Lisa Wilbourn, the dastardly villain Tattletale, wakes in the streets of an unfamiliar city with no memory of how she arrived or why. Armed with only her wit, powers, and an odd scrap of silk fabric, she will brave the streets of Vale, journey to discover how she reached this world, and ultimately face the question of who and what she wants to be in the face of a truly fresh start—a second chance.

    Summary

    The following is a transcription of a lecture by R. H. Pumpernickel, professor of Adunaic Studies at Manwe and Varda College, Narowthrode University, in an Intro to Numenor class.

    Pumpernickel is the author of *Pelargir in the Second Age,* and *The Flowering of Adunie.* He is currently working on a translation of the Numenorean liturgies for the Three Times.

    (This is an attempt at an EmperorNorton150-style in-universe historiography of Middle-Earth through the lens of Numenorean History. I had a lot of fun with this, though I was too lazy to bother much with diacritical marks or standard punctuation.)

    Summary

    Good evening, super-sleuths! Boy, do we have a treat for you today. We’re delving into one of the biggest unsolved mysteries of the modern era. The million-dollar question. The billion-dollar question, if one of these theories holds water.

    That’s right. We’re gonna risk life, limb and sanity by asking the question… who is The Batman?

    [In-universe Buzzfeed Unsolved accidentally stumbles on Batman’s secret identity. The Batfam reacts.]
