The Importance of Being Mostly Human by gogollescent for elementalv
Fandoms: Discworld - Terry Pratchett
20 Dec 2012
Tags
Summary
In which Susan identifies "Where's My Cow" as a proto-talismanic anchor for Young Sam's continued health and existence, and tries very hard not to wonder what the Vimes' butler does on his day off. There may also be a lesson about the meaning of Hogswatch, but no one wants to talk about that.

Summary
There's few things commander Vimes enjoys less than attending yet another weirdly specific diplomatic symposium, blindly searching for missing tyrants might be one of them.

Excellent, although one is distracted from the excellence by the punctuation (not Carrot’s) and the synonym for ‘japes’ unaccountably uttered by his Lordship.

James Potter, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, (pause for breath) and the Prisoner of Azkaban by gonzoclock
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
30 Dec 2022
Tags
Summary
At the end of first year, Harry pocketed the Philosopher's Stone- in a secret pocket that everyone else missed.
Now, two years later, Harry is in his third year, his friends are having the time of their lives in Hogsmeade, there's an escaped mass murderer running around, and Harry is going stir-crazy. Fortunately, the twins have a solution! Although- they're going to need something in return, and it needs to be good.
Good thing Harry kept that Stone, huh?
And then things go completely bat-shit crazy.
(featuring the Marauders vs 1993, an exhausted Professor Lupin, a bewildered Harry Potter, and an opportunistic Hermione Granger)

Peter Pettigrew and the Ghost of Christmas James by gonzoclock
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
25 Dec 2023
Tags
Summary
Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.
Fine. Things could be better.
But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.
But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.
What was Peter expecting, really?
(Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

Summary
Harry finds a better life with the basilisk, but that doesn't mean it's easy. From inter-being feuds, to bloody prophecies, to elven unrest, Harry is in the eye of a hurricane that will change the wizarding world forever.
Involving thestrals, merfolk, house elves, centaurs, acromantulae, and various other friends, denizens, and allies.
This series is: Queer in a multitude of ways. Morally complex. A massively canon-divergent AU. Filled with oc's and non-oc's. A story about relationships, love, trust, friendship, healing ... and revolution.
There are seven novel-length fics, plus a prologue (to leap and love the fall) and two longer stories (with courage unyielding and the gentle sunlight). The short story collection to journey on contains shorter stories set within the main timeline. All are posted in the correct reading order.

Blood of the Lamb (And Other Sacrifices) by PeniG
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV), Miss Silver - Patricia Wentworth
02 Jan 2022
Tags
Summary
A body has caught upon the buttress of Westminster Bridge on the morning after Guy Fawkes Day, 1934, and it's Inspector Lamb and Sgt. Frank Abbot's job to find out who it is, and who put it there. Who, in the Fell family - patriarch Michael (a long time dying), hearty Gabriel, regal Michaela, eccentric Aziraphale - or those around them - Michaela's personal secretary Uriel Ligur, cousin Sandalphon, Aziraphale's boon companion Anthony J Crowley, solicitor at Prince and Prince - could possibly have a reason to kill the baby of the family, Raziel Joshua Fell?
Is the Prince Foundation a useful charity, or something more sinister? How far into the book will Miss Silver finally make her appearance? And what has the unique family legacy, The Book of the Angel Aziraphale, got to do with anything?

Upon the Place Beneath by 5-door Wasabi (Ignica)
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
03 Dec 2021
Tags
Summary
Due to their overlapping but different skill sets, Aziraphale is better than Crowley at certain Temptations, and Crowley is better than Aziraphale at one supposedly-angelic Task. That’s not necessarily a downside of The Arrangement. It’s absolutely fine, providing that no-one Upstairs or Downstairs notices – and after nearly eight hundred years, what are the the chances of that?
Right.
It may not be the End of the World, but it’s the end of the Eighteenth Century, the world is changing far too fast, and an angel and a demon are up to their necks in Serendipity, even though that concept was only invented in 1754.

Summary
The image of Aziraphale — his bowtie undone and his coat long abandoned, his shirtsleeves rolled up to his elbows — with a newborn tucked snugly in the crook of his arm like some sort of angelic nanny will stay with Crowley long after this world is nothing but a smoking crater.

Summary
Crowley had impulsively stopped by Artisan Du Chocolate, the next place on Aziraphale’s meticulously ordered list of chocolatiers to sample, and now Crowley wonders--is it too much? He had bought a hundred fucking pounds’ worth of chocolate, of course it’s too much, but would Aziraphale notice that it was too much?
That is the question.

Summary
No one in their right mind would want to be in Slytherin House after the Battle of Hogwarts. So why is a certain Slytherin hero - who was supposed to be heroically, safely, dead - showing up back at the school?
He's certainly not saying.
Inspired by evilbean's prompt: "Has someone ever read a fic were Snape just kinda shows up a few days/weeks after the final battle and resume his life without any explanation of why he’s alive and everyone is losing their mind over it but the bastard won’t answer to any question about it seriously?"

Summary
“Lovely day, isn’t it?” says a friendly, American voice.
Crowley looks up from his mobile to find someone has joined him on the park bench, where he’s been waiting for Aziraphale to tear himself away from his newly restored bookshop for lunch. She’s an older woman, thin, with a polite smile and halo of curly hair that’s gone grey. Her eyes are very blue, and there’s something vaguely familiar about her, like she’s someone Crowley had seen once a long time ago or maybe in a film he can’t quite recall.

Summary
CROWLEY: I try not to make a habit of gratitude, but I must give our appreciation to everyone out there who’s been listening and subscribing to The Ineffable Plan.
AZIRAPHALE: Ooh, yes, we’ve become quite popular, haven’t we?
CROWLEY: Yeah, just hit number eight on the advice charts … No advertising at all.
AZIRAPHALE: Mm. How … miraculous.
CROWLEY: … Aziraphale. You did not.***
Crowley and Aziraphale are very possibly the people least qualified, on the entire planet, to start up an advice podcast.
But what else is there to do when the world isn’t ending anytime soon, you’re technically on indefinite sabbatical from your lifelong careers, and you need a plausible excuse to spend more time with your best friend who you’re definitely not, absolutely not, maybe just a little, actually maybe overwhelmingly in love with?
