Summary
After Sirius falls through the veil, Harry realizes he has a choice: die as the Chosen One or live as himself. He chooses himself.
Armed with self-taught Apparition and a photograph torn from a muggle magazine, Harry disappears to Egypt. He trades his wand for anonymity, his galleons for a flat in Cairo, and his destiny for the simple freedom of surviving one more day.
When Dumbledore sends Snape to drag him back, Harry refuses. And slowly, against all odds, he convinces Snape that they both deserve to live too.

Summary
Harry Potter has never been normal. Even before he was born, he was a child of prophecy. So no part of his life could be called normal in the slightest. When given the chance to have a 'normal' life, does he even know what that means? No, he's gone through too much to even try, and he's too tired to care. It's too bad everyone expects him to be the upstanding son and heir of the Potter family when he's never had family before in his life though.
Also, the baby is a little difficult to explain. The baby who may eventually turn into Lord Voldemort...no, nature vs. nurture and all, and Harry plans to nurture the hell out of this kid.

Summary
Yesterday, Linda was on her way to Target to buy a birthday present for her granddaughter.
Today, Linda is infected with some parasite in the most horrifying environment imaginable. Even worse, she's surrounded by a band of misfits: a magical bearded man who talks too much, an odd little Goth girl with bangs that desperately need a trim, an angry alien lady who won't quit sharpening her sword, a disturbingly pale elf who needs some bronzer, and a heroic young man with one eye.
This can't be real... can it? Surely she's having a psychotic break.
Tomorrow, she'll wake up and this will all be some kind of nightmare. She's sure of it.

Summary
A month after Andy left Miranda’s side in Paris she receives a text message from an unknown number. Miranda could simply guess that it was a mistake, an anomaly, but the words on her screen coincided a little too closely with her recommendation to The Mirror about her latest and greatest disappointment.
Because yes. Andréa was a disappointment to Miranda, not in the traditional sense, not really. Miranda was disappointed that she was abandoned by the girl. She supposed she was disappointed because it was her fault Andréa left. So as Miranda sat in her office on a random Tuesday afternoon a month after her favorite assistant left, she revived an innocuous text right when she’d normally take her lunch.
Unknown number 12:30 p.m: Thank You.
OR
Andy realized she was in love with Miranda decided to show Miranda just how capable she is. A year later she asks Miranda out on a date and presents her the manuscript to her first book that also happens to contain her love confession.
