    A Study of Resonance by

    Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

    Summary

    Percy Weasley is not particularly reckless, until he is, once, on the anniversary of his brother's death. For most people, the idea of sending oneself through time to correct one's mistake would remain a fantasy, something to dwell on in the middle of the night, but Percy has always been too capable for his own good.

    Featuring: a reluctant spy, an unlikely friendship between a ghost and a lonely student, a portrait, very few friends, several very lengthy conversations about soul magic, and far too many Horcruxes.

    (Or, an attempt to answer the question, if someone intelligent was sent back through time, armed only with the word 'Horcrux' and a general knowledge of the main timeline––not to mention a keen understanding of the Hogwarts curriculum––could that person logic his way to defeating the Dark Lord? Only time will tell).

    COMPLETE.

    this may be one of the most important fics in my life right now. i consumed all 600k+ words of this in two weeks exactly. every minute of my free time was dedicated to this. Percy weasley you have absolutely enamored me with your sad wet cat ridden with guilt and anger demeanor, your intelligence and bravery, and your determination to fix what you've broken only to break things in new and arguably more devastating ways. this fic singlehandedly made me notice, like, and come to love a whole host of characters that I have never noticed, liked, and/or loved in Harry potter before. who would ever have guessed a core trio of Percy weasley, moaning Myrtle, and Severus snape would become so dear to me. I have so many thoughts about this fic and there's just no way I can express them all. I just love it so much

    Summary

    There was a tinkling sound. The bell above the front door signaled the entrance of a customer.

    Taehyun paused. Kai looked over curiously, too, and Yeonjun turned around. There was a man standing awkwardly in the doorway, in a poorly-pressed suit and scuffed shoes. Yeonjun’s mouth fell open.

    “Um… Hello? I saw the sign outside. Nude psychic readings and… tax advice? I was hoping for… um, the tax help.”

    “They’re a package deal,” Yeonjun blurted. “I do the psychic reading and then give advice on the– uh, tax stuff.” Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Taehyun mouthing no at him repeatedly and emphatically.

    "O-oh. Okay."

    Summary

    After four years of space travel, Grace and Rocky are finally approaching Erid. Grace has been working hard to learn Eridian, but two days out, disaster strikes - his keyboard is broken and Rocky is hurt.

    Luckily, Grace can speak some very basic Eridian with his single set of vocal cords. Unfortunately, he sounds like a newly hatched baby Eridian when he does.

    so so so cute and fun! I absolutely adore the idea of grace speaking/sounding like a pebble when speaking eridian because his vocal chords can only manage simple sounds. also just love how the eridians treat him here, how frantic to find grace rocky was after waking up, and honestly just all the good feels from this

    Summary

    The door opens. 

    Claire chokes. Ryland is standing there in blue PJ pants and an oversized PBS t-shirt. He's rubbing his eyes, which are missing his glasses, which makes it even more obvious how similar they look. When his hand falls away, Six watches him process what is standing at his door. His eyes go from Six, down to Claire, then back up to Six. 

    He laughs, high and stressed, then closes the door in their face.

    OR, Six needs help taking care of Claire after they break free from their respective jails. He decides that his younger brother Ryland Grace is the solution.

    foaming at the mouth I love a gray man fic that explores six and fitz's relationship. and the way you can feel the contrast between court and six. the differences and the few similarities that remain. courtland gentry your backstory is so tragic and I love how you come out of it with an air of playfulness I love how we can still feel your youth radiating from you and I love/mourn how it is trained out of you until you are a closed off quiet disciplined hardened killer.
