Whatever the Situation
“It’s a mess! A mess I tell you!”
“Hello,” Harry said.
Narcissa Malfoy appeared in the doorway of his dining room as he ate a late brunch by himself. He’d heard the sound of Floo Flames from the next room over, and now here Narcissa was. She marched over, throwing down a bundle of mail from under her arm onto the table. She stood in front of him huffing, wearing a black dress and lo...
2024-12-30 09:03:26 +0000 UTC View PostPatreon took this one down for underage sex. You know, the chapter filled with 18 and 19 year olds banging? Can you tell I'm salty about this happening again?
Anyway, reuploaded it here in PDF form. Enjoy.

As Cold as Space
Age eighteen, Aurora Sinistra stood in a noisy room with a cup of Firewhisky in her hand. She’d taken one sip and recoiled from the taste, but kept the glass raised for all around her to see, trying to prove that she belonged there.
Someone nearby squealed, grabbing her shoulder to slow themselves down from a full sprint.
“Aurora!” cried Becca Brocklehurst, her best friend in her year. “Aurora,...

Staff Meeting
Privately, Harry had always privately thought of teaching to be somewhat, well, easy work. You deliver lessons to a couple of classes each day, assign them homework, and settle in to do whatever you want with the rest of the day. Obviously that was oversimplifying it, but you even got Holidays off. It certainly seemed cushier than being an Auror, getting called into the office at unholy hours to chase down som...
2024-12-28 05:58:16 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: I finally got this one finished. I'm back to writing, and trying to catch up for lost time, but still can't really pump things out at the rate I usually do. Chapters might still be a bit slow because of that, but HOPEFULLY that will only extend to the next day or two. Thanks for your patience.

Hinata kept waiting for some kind of twist. She was certain that if she kept watching, something ...
2024-12-26 07:36:00 +0000 UTC View PostAnd Happy Holidays to anyone who doesn't celebrate! Hope everyone has a great day, and thank you again for your support. I'm just getting started, and I hope to be wishing many of you the same exact thing this time next year. Your support means the world to me.
For those of you who haven't seen the community channel post, I got sick this week. Again. I thought it was a migraine at first, but instead it was some kind of stomach bug. I'm a lot better now, and I have my next update ...

Goodbye Unemployment
“You sure know how to put those down Honey.”
His chest on fire, Harry looked up from his glass of Firewhisky, managing a smile to the blond behind the bar.
“It’s been a long day… I think?” he said. “Or maybe it was the shortest one ever? I’m not quite sure, to be honest.”
“You’re a bit touched in the head, aren’t you?” Rosmerta asked in a kind voice.
“People h...

The Funeral
“And what,” Fleur said, “might this be?”
Harry averted his eyes. He should’ve lied, something simple about being hurt in the village. But he had not looked away quickly enough, catching a glimpse of those intent blue eyes. The words wouldn’t come.
Barking caught their attention. The dog he brought home had run across the room, resting its head on Susan’s knee. The redhead scratched it behind the ears...

A/N: I really wanted to get a Quest for 12 chapter done today as well, but three chapters in one day was just straight up more than I could manage. I probably won't have any time for writing tomorrow, so expect two updates both Saturday and Sunday.

I won't have much writing time tomorrow, either, so I'm going to be trying to grind out a ton today.

A Distinct Rat Problem
The air was thick with screams and the scent of smoke as Harry and Barty Crouch Jr. stood with their wands at each other’s throats. Neither of them so much as twitched. If they had, the other would’ve reacted, starting a duel in earnest, and both of them knew as much.
“Are you enjoying playing lord, Harry?” Crouch asked. “Sitting in your house, looking down the hill at muggle filth and spineless wiz...
2024-12-16 07:01:27 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Double update for this story this week, because I actually owed you all a chapter last week that you didn't get on time, so this way it'll balance out.

Naruto’s seals workshop was as messy as ever when Hinata hurled open the door, not helping the clutter as stray papers were blown off of the large desk. Naruto himself, hunkered behind in his seat, looked up, holding a brush in his ha...

Su Me (Part 3)
The world slipped by beneath them, nothing more than specks of light with the occasional bump of a mountain peak. They were covering ground impossibly quickly, passing countries in a matter of minutes, flying backwards through time as they crossed time zones and left the rising sun further behind.
Harry felt Su...
2024-12-13 09:59:21 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Like I said in the Updates Channel, I'm gunning to do two chapters of this today, just because I wanted to write them together (wasn't sure if they were going to be one long chapter or two shorter ones).
I want to post these together now and when they go up on the public sites because I figure they (along with last chapter) won't be everyone's cup of tea. I like developing the girls Harry sleeps with by giving them unique stories, because I think it makes ...
2024-12-13 05:42:01 +0000 UTC View PostThere is no extra content in this, the epilogue posted earlier this week is still the end, but like I did with Lessons in Love I wanted to post a complete version in different file formats, for ease access for anyone wanting to reread.
2024-12-13 01:51:53 +0000 UTC View PostI already posted this earlier, but Patreon content struck it for Teen Safety, which is their corpo-speak way of saying underage sex.
I'm... befuddled, I guess would be the best word. I've had them take issue with Percy Jackson stories in the past for incest, which while stupid, I can at least understand what they're being stupid about. This chapter had nothing. Harry is eighteen. He's a teen, but he's not underage, and he literally fucked Narcissa's brains out a couple of cha...

“Come on,” I said. “You’ve got this. You’ve got it!”
I squeezed Annabeth’s hand, but it kept trying to slip out of my grip, too slick with sweat.
“Gah!” she screamed, her back rising up from the white sheets she was laying on. Her eyes were shut from pain. I flinched with every noise, all while trying to hide it. My thumb slid across her knuckl...

The Theft
The frame rattled softly as Hinata shut the door to her room. Her fingers were shaking. She ran most of the way here, ready to shut herself away from the world and clear her confused head. She’d blown past the other Hyuuga in the compound, hardly paying them a glance. Right now, she needed this.
Hinata crossed the room and shifted the sheets on her bed. She held her pillow, turning it over, and drew Naruto’s journal ...

2024-12-08 09:21:28 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Ye Ye means paternal grandfather in Chinese. Most of the Chinese aspects in this chapter are tied to Chinese New Year Traditions, with the funeral preparations being tied to Chinese Buddhist traditions. I tried my best to be accurate and inventive, but I'm far from an expert, so if someone reading this knows more than me, please feel free to correct anything about it.

Daphne Greengrass stood at perfect attention. Her blue eyes darted over the hallway, drinking in Harry, Pansy, and the clothes spread around them. Still naked and dirtied, Harry quirked an eyebrow.
“Ms. Greengrass,” he said. “How can I help you this evening?”
Daphne did not move, nor speak, for long enough that Harry was the one to fill the silence.
“Do you make a habit of peeping on the private ...

So it Begins
It was just a lonely country road west of New York City. At one time it had a gas station, a telephone pole, and a payphone with its own private box. Now the gas station was a hollow shell. The telephone pole was cracked in half, laying at an awkward angle. But the payphone was still there.
Kicking the corner of the box to get mud off his shoes, a boy stepped inside. There was mold in the top corner, and the buttons on t...

Fleur Delacour was forced to admit that she was confused.
