Not really resolved angst well written, though a tad ooc seeming on Emma's part, at least from what I recall. Though knowing the show it could be 100% in character for a season 3 Emma for all I recall. Excellent descriptions and well paced storytelling. I like her writing style

This is the thing that everyone needs to read.
It's about the kids who stood tall with their chins up and dared others to talk about them. It's about how kids were soldiers and spies and fought and somewhere in between they became adults in their own right. This is about the Hogwarts students who came to school as children and graduated as adults. It's about how they could bend, and keep bending, but never broke. No, they wouldn't break.
This is about the students who refused to back down despite what others say/said.

Summary
"Potterwatch was legitimized by its dedication to truth, capacity for serious discourse, and avoidance of reverse-propaganda. This separated it from other rebel media, such as the short-lived radio programme Up Voldemort’s Arse which spent several months insisting that Harry Potter was raising an army of dragons in Romania."

It's not so much about who you are - it's about what you choose.
(The Sorting Hat told her she could be great in Slytherin, and you know what? She is.)
This is children coming together and house lines not dividing them.
(For the kind of bad day not when you're looking for feel-good fluff, but fics where lines are drawn and you rub them out and prove to be who you are and object to the stereotypes they try to chain you down with.)

Summary
Kel sat and thought about it all through the long summer-- thought about joining the Riders when she turned sixteen, or going back to the Yamani Isles with her parents, or running away to become an unlawful bandit hunter. She drank tea with her mother and accepted her quiet sympathy. She wondered what was going to happen to Peachblossom. She did her morning glaive practice dances in the heady air of the tiny courtyard garden of her parents' townhouse, where the cook grew herbs and spices in big overflowing boxes.
Summer rolled on. She sat, and she thought, and she did not tell her thoughts to anyone. On the first day of what would have been her second year of page training, she woke before the sun and had a quiet breakfast with her father, and then she jogged up the big dusty hill to the palace.
When the pages trailed out to the practice yards with dubious enthusiasm, she was waiting just outside their ground. Her chin was high, her shoulders loose while her hands gripped her weighted staff.
"Probationer," Wyldon barked out her, when one of the boys went to fetch him. "Was I unclear in the spring?"
Kel stared him down, fingers white on her staff, and said, "I'm not a probationer anymore."

Bookmarker's Notes
I read this some time ago, but I reread it again. This series, even if you do not read the other series that are within the same universe, are amazing and impressive and deserve more attention. This is where canon diverges and takes on a new path. But, in many ways, it is just as important as the books that were written. This is Kel lifting her chin up and staring back at the people who look down at her. This is Kel knowing that what she has done matters, knowing that for all the belief that girls cannot be knights, she has made a change and proven to many that girls can do the same things boys can. This is gorgeous and I really don't have the words for it. It is bravery and stubbornness entwined with a great outcome. It's happiness, even though it doesn't seem so. It is strength where strength isn't simply physical power.

An absolutely amazing story! The writing style was fabulous and I adored the characterisation here. The focus on Mikoto and Shisui was beautiful, and I loved seeing the changes that came about that I had rarely - if ever - seen written before. There are some beautiful messages here as well.

Summary
The last time Richie had seen Eddie, they were something like amorphous human blobs. That’s what preteens basically are, right? Just weird limbs and round cheeks, childlike button noses, and button mouths that spew curse words that come out clumsy and loud. Eddie was always small hands and small feet with eyes the size of dinner plates and a feral attitude, and Richie doesn’t think there was ever a minute that he wasn’t drawn to every single one of his freckles and every neatly brushed hair on his head.
So Richie had blinked, and then he was forty. He’s faced down a clown, twice, and he’s unearthed what makes him inherently Richie in the shape of his friends, and his freedom. He’s forty and he’s running his thumb over the rough stubble on Eddie’s face, a little shaggier than his usually clean shaven look from a stint in the hospital and his own midlife crisis.
—
Eddie wants, he's always wanted, but it's only ever been Richie that he trusts.

Deadpool died all the time. It was kind of a modus operandi with the mercenary. He was used to it. In a sick way, Peter was also used to it. The merc would take a bullet to the brain like a tic tac. No matter how gnarled or dismembered he became, Deadpool always pulled himself together, and it was normal.

Or four times Wade died saving Peter's life, and the one time Peter almost died saving his.

Summary
After living in Camelot for ten years, Merlin has accomplished nothing - magic is still illegal, Albion remains a mirage, and he's still 'just a servant' who is lonely and tired of his hopeless pining for Arthur.
Merlin will pay a heavy price for his lack of direction as Arthur’s walls of denial crumble and Morgana’s plans to destroy Emrys approach fruition. In his desperation to save the Golden Age of his dreams, Merlin will have to call upon his magic like never before, testing the old adage that power corrupts - and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
