Summary
The first tilted her head, chin dipping low in consideration as one of her hands sunk into the basket beside her.
The second hummed, eyes narrowing.
But it was the third who met her gaze, her face equally kind and callous.
"It will not be easy," the woman told her. "You will have many regrets. You will bleed and cry and hate and lose. You will be unmade. Scattered to the wind. Incomplete."
Her eyes were fathomless and grave as she stared down at Persephone.
"Is he worth that?"
OR Harriet Potter was born with Spring in her eyes, the spark of Life in her fingertips and the legacy of a Queen resting on her shoulders.

Summary
"The king sent me to get you," Merlin said, with a tone that implied strongly that he wasn't rolling his eyes where Arthur could see, but just wait until his back was turned. "He said you're to get changed into formal clothes and meet him in the Great Hall, there's a delegation coming from the Summer Court."

Summary
"You're a psychiatrist," Will says. "Between your personal and professional lives you must have met thousands of people, you must know dozens of different flavors of pathology. Do you know anyone who would take me as I am? Who would be able to love me," he gestures in a sweeping motion, from his messy hair to his stained knee, "just as I am?"
"I do."
Bedelia's words shock Will into stillness.
“Really?”
AKA an AU where Bedelia is Will’s psychiatrist instead of Hannibal, Will makes a series of increasingly questionable life choices, and no one should ever take Bedelia’s advice. Ever.
