    Summary

    When the world slowed down for a moment, Hadrian allowed himself to think that perhaps the next year at Hogwarts would be uneventful.

    But the Ministry of Magic had already made its move, and Hogwarts once again became a chessboard for much more powerful players. The explosion at the Ministry didn't merely shatter stone and glasss but started a new game — one that threatened to drag the entire school into its current, swift and merciless as a raging river.

    And the players? All the powerful people justified the means.

    Summary

    In the world where Tom Marvolo Riddle becomes Minister of Magic and Albus Dumbledore secretly builds a resistance movement, Hadrian Castor Potter, second son of James and Lily Potter, feels alone and deprived of his heritage. Especially when no one believes him and in him. Hogwarts is like a vision of safe heaven but Dumbledore’s obsession with a prophecy grows, and soon political conflict will get more and more hostile.

    The perspective of difficult decisions, hard choices and conflicts is overwhelming, and there will be the time when Hadrian would face a point of no return.

    Alea iacta est, like said Julius Caesar.

    Summary

    In the year 1857 AC the journal of the king that solidified the rule of the Baratheon dynasty was found. The surprisingly frank and direct journal entries give Dr. Hedda Barath a rather unique insight in what life was in Westeros 1500 years ago.

     

    With growing unease, I note that the so venerated Maesters at Oldtown have started to adjust the events of my reign in a nearly utopian narration. Gone are the mistakes I made in my reign, gone are the hunger and thirst, the blood and the sickness, only the glory and honorable deaths are left. Nothing of the cravenness in my own ranks, instead the only ones that were craven were my enemies. Men and women that stood opposite me are demonized into fantasy. I cannot abide this farce, I simply cannot. So in these last days before the Stranger takes me too I will attempt to give an account of my life, the events that shaped me and my rule.
     

    King Joffrey Baratheon, First of his name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, Protector of the Realm.

    Summary

    Penelope Margaret Parker did not like boredom.

    Now, most people who somehow accidentally end up reborn as a fictional character may not find their life boring, but Penny thought that those people forgot what day-to-day life is like. So, she's bored.

    Until Tony Stark crashes his way into her life roughly eight months too early by walking into her after-school retail job.

    Summary

    What if Loki was able to warn his past self, so he did not lose control during his regency and was able to act as he normally would? What if he had been able to remain calm and in control of himself, and the situation?

    "How?" Loki demanded.

    "Betrayal," his future self stated simply, rage clear in every syllable. "But you must control your reaction and come to see me, or you will repeat my mistakes and we will miss an opportunity to take control and alter things in our favor."

    It would have changed everything.

    Summary

    How one choice changed history's course, or the life of Severus Snape from Hogwarts to adulthood if characters were less caricatural, and Voldemort and the Death Eaters were more than bogeymen.
    This is an AU, events before and after may differ from the books.
    AN-2024/08/01: I have written a third story in this universe called Marvolo's Choice which is a short alternate ending to Severus' Choice.

    Summary

    Pale gold eyes watch him quietly, but there’s no sneering malice, no delighted calculation. If anything, he looks… tired. Preoccupied. As if Jango is more of a trial to pass than a helpless prisoner to toy with.
