Summary
Knives digs through the rocks with his bare hands, heart pounding his throat, jaw clenched. Even he doesn’t know how he’s going to react to this. For all his frustration with Vash, for all his occasional hatred, he’s never believed that Vash would really be gone.
Finally, he pulls the last bit of debris away. And there’s the body he’s been searching for – but not.
He stares.
It’s Vash, undoubtedly, but not Vash as he’s known him for so long. It’s Vash as he was, Vash as when they first arrived on this planet, young and even softer.
__
Or: Vash turns back into a kid and while Knives takes care of him, he tries to sway his brother to his side of things.

Summary
What Arthur knows: Merlin, his clumsy and foolish servant, is actually quite smart. He’s also loyal, and brave, and in many ways the reason Arthur has so many good people in his life.
The goal: Make Merlin realize how important he is to Arthur, no matter how stubborn he's clearly chosing to be about it.
What Arthur does not know, yet: Merlin has magic. Also they're very slightly a little bit in love.
It's going to take them a while to figure it all out. Meanwhile the knights have known for ages, Gwen figures it out pretty quick, and pretty much all of Camelot has also known ever since that weird peasant stumbled through the gates and challenged the Prince all those years ago.

"How to win over your manservant one argument at a time and convince him it was all his idea."

Summary
Arthur gave Merlin his cloak thinking only of the warmth it would offer in a snowstorm. He never thought his manservant may be mistaken for him and snatched by bandits. Nor did he expect his dashing rescue of Merlin to turn his world so utterly on his head.
Because the bandits hadn't kidnapped a prince. They'd snatched a sorcerer, and now captivity is the least of anyone's problems.
A golden age awaits, but can they claim it together, or are they doomed to fail?

Summary
Some would call it terrible timing. Some would call it providence. It really all depended on who you asked. And who was to say it couldn’t be both, from a certain point of view?
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away when Luke Skywalker is found by his father, the course of his life changes forever and so does the galaxy. Vader knows his son will never be safe as long as Palpatine sits on the throne, so thus it begins, and all is as the Force wills with a new adventure of forging alliances, a secret rebellion, and finding family in even the strangest of times. And it begins something like this, a story about a boy with stars in his eyes who was meant to kill his father, a girl with red gold hair who was meant to never know family or love, and a man in a mask who thought he had become the monster.

Summary
A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two.
But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.

Summary
What I wanted to write was a quick one-shot that explored the idea of Harry being the biological son of Voldemort, only Voldemort doesn't know he has a son and is also as evil as ever. Meanwhile, Harry is just a charismatic kid with a snake and ridiculously powerful magic.
It turned into a series rewrite.

Summary
Episode reworking of 'The Darkest Hour.' It took a blood sacrifice to tear the veil between the worlds; it will take a blood sacrifice to mend it. Arthur knew his duty to his people, and he'd been grimly ready to do what needed to be done. But if there is even the barest possibility of a way out... is it really so very selfish of him to consider another option when one is offered? Does Camelot need a living king or a dead hero? Reposted from ff.net.

Summary
Harry Potter is unremarkable. A sub-par student, a loner and orphaned by parents few care to remember. He’s just a fifteen year old boy nobody seems to care about,and he in turn cares for nothing and nobody either.
But Harry Potter is also a Slytherin. And Slytherins, if nothing else know how to spot an opportunity. Slytherins don’t wait for fate to confer destiny upon them, they bend fate to their whim.
So when opportunity strikes to make his mark, to carve out his own place in the world, he takes it. The real question is if he’ll leave it scarred or renewed.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.
