Summary
On his Grail Quest, Sir Leofric discovers an angel in chains, only to be freed by the pure of heart. Surely it is proof of his sanctity that his prayers could free a sinless creature of God, and that the angel claims him as his husband. Such exquisite pleasure could only be pure and blessed by God.
Daob will fight all the armies of Heaven and Hell for the human who set him free. Leofric is his.
But there's a conversation they should probably have sooner rather than later.

Directionally Challenged and Reluctantly Participating by Origin_Of_Symmetry
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
18 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
His gaze sweeps down and then back up, very pointedly noting, “you’re not wearing clothing,” like he’s either trying to determine why Harry isn’t wearing clothing, or why Harry would open the door not wearing clothing.
“Merlin, fuck, what!?” Is Harry’s rather eloquent response.
Harry Potter: Recently orphaned, newly appointed junior lord in the Wizengamot, with no life direction and absolutely zero clue what he’s doing.
Lord Thomas Gaunt shows up one morning at his door, asking for a favor, and Harry quickly finds that it’s not something he can easily refuse.

Summary
One would think traveling 52 years into the past would allow Harry some much desired anonymity, but unfortunately the malfunctioning Triwizard Cup spat Harry out on the quidditch pitch in the middle of a game. There's no lying about his provenance while a shiny plaque on the base of the Cup announces to everyone he is 'Harry Potter, Hogwarts Champion, 1994.'
Swept up by the ministry and sworn to secrecy by the Unspeakables, Harry is left to navigate the past on his own. Good thing his great-grandparents are willing to take him in - even if they're a little more into blood purity than Harry had expected - and Hogwarts is willing to welcome him back - even if he's a novelty to everyone as the time traveling Champion.
At least Harry will have the familiarity of Gryffindor Tower to ease his homesickness. Or he would, if the sorting hat hadn't put him in Slytherin, where he's forced to share a dorm with none other than Tom Riddle.
---
In which Harry is determined to prevent Voldemort's rise, even if he has to stalk, bribe, threaten, and marry Tom Riddle to do it.

Summary
Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, and he committed a major mistake in the past that cost him several of his friends, but he can still help with fighting the Carrows during his seventh year. At least, until Alecto Carrow casts an experimental spell on him that ends up flinging him fifty years into the past. Harry makes himself at home in the past, unaware of the real identity of the handsome Slytherin, Tom Riddle, who seems oddly attracted to him.

Summary
There was another student here.
Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.
It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.
Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.
This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

“Ah. Here is a young man transfixed. Do you like Hunt, sir?"
"Do I like him?" Phil tore his eyes from the painting before him and marvelled at the stranger at his elbow. Like him? One might as well ask do you like Michaelangelo? Do you like Homer? Do you like the Alps?
An art enthusiast with a talent for meteorology meets (arguably) the Finest Painter in England. But impressing your idol can be damned hard work, especially when he's all pride and prejudice, and you're all sensibility and no sense. Heavy weather ahead...- Language:

Summary
This is a COMPLETELY optional sister “fic” to "All This We Do in the Name of Ma'at". It’s not a story. It’s my Yu-Gi-Oh themed Egyptology notes. You don’t have to read them. In fact, I don't expect you to. I’ve spent a lot of time researching this thing, though, so I figured I may as well post them.
Just make sure you've read up to the most recent chapter of "All This We Do in the Name of Ma'at" before reading this unless you don't mind spoilers.
Also, since this has come up, feel free to use anything in here for your own fics if you'd like. I would be nothing less than honored to see my work used elsewhere. (Aka, please justify my hours of research :P )

Summary
The year is 3057.
In a time when the rich and powerful can buy their replacement body in an effort to live forever, Itadori Yuuji is born for one purpose and one purpose only; to be the next body to hold the mind of an affluent citizen. His own mind, left to fade away into obscurity, as if it never were.
He’s not aware of this fact.
It’s not like anyone tells him that he’s being raised like a pig for slaughter and he doesn’t see the butcher’s block in plain view until it’s too late.
-Or: the epic sci-fi dystopian drama where Yuuji falls in love with a man who doesn't have his best interests in mind.

Summary
It should have been a no-brainer, really. Ghost should have balked at the thought of spending time in close proximity to any of his colleagues, let alone the one man that he actually had the potential to disappoint. That was his rule — distance meant safety.
It should have been an easy answer.

When the news of three weeks’ forced leave reaches Ghost, he’s resigned himself to loneliness in an empty base. That is, until a certain Sergeant offers him an invitation he just can’t seem to refuse.
