    Summary

    Steve Rogers and Darcy Lewis didn't exactly get along. In fact, when they were within a stone's throw of one another, they were often bickering. If you asked Steve, it was because Darcy couldn't manage to not get herself kidnapped every other week. And if you asked Darcy, it was because Steve was a giant douchewagon.

    Leave it to Natasha and Bucky to bring them together for their own personal reasons and enjoyment. But when Steve and Darcy turn from bickering adults into bickering children (with incredibly foul mouths), it turns out the joke is on Mother Russia's finest.

    Summary

    When Dora finds out that her careful, difficult, unwavering goodness doesn't make her loveable like she thought it would--that, instead, it just makes her forgettable--only the fact that she's not big enough yet to survive on her own keeps her from running away that very day.

    Wow. This POV was heartbreaking and yet I also feel convicted. May I never forget to love the quiet, non-squeaky wheels in my life just as much as I love the squeaky wheels.

    This is fantastic. It's a crackish idea treated logically and with great imagination. I loved how walking a mile in each other's shoes makes such a difference to both the series plot, and the character development of both the trio and those they are close to.

    Summary

    Magical means failed to track the boy down, but Muggle means proved surprisingly successful. It seems whoever placed the child in this situation didn’t consider Muggles dangerous – very few of us do, after all. (And perhaps that was our gravest mistake, regarding young Mr. Potter.) But if a lone reporter can track the boy down so easily, then how easy would it be for a vengeful Dark witch or wizard to do the same?

    For the Boy Who Lived, now the tender age of 10, is not training with Gringotts cursebreakers. He is not learning under the careful tutelage of Albus Dumbledore. He is not basking in the lap of luxury while training with masters of defense, and he is certainly not in good hands. No, Harry Potter is living with Muggles. Muggles who despise him.
