Summary
When her mother died, the first thing her father saw was the bottom of a bottle. When what was left of Rhaenyra's world collapsed in on itself, the first thing she saw was Daemon. It was only natural, she reasoned, that she'd turned to him, begun to orient toward this singular warmth; that petal by petal, she'd trustingly hand him over her layers as they unfurled.

Sixteen-year-old Rhaenyra turns up on the doorstep of the uncle she never knew in the midst of dual familial and global crises. In isolation, a friendship of necessity blossoms into something more intimate and complex.

Summary
Harry is suspended in the summer before fifth year. Grimmauld Place may seem an unlikely refuge, with an erratic lord and a malicious house elf and a tendency to change when night falls. But a year away from Hogwarts offers opportunities, and Harry begins to learn what it means to be a ward of the House of Black.
'Magical families deal with the dead differently. The Potters bury theirs which is more of a statement than you’d think. It says ‘our kin are safe in the ground, we trust they will not rise’ - words your grandfather once said to me by the way, not something I just made up for dramatics. Other families don’t have such confidence.' - Sirius Black

Summary
The sight of the blade, emerging from Jiang Cheng’s chest, just under his heart, was something Wei Wuxian would relive in a thousand nightmares. “Go,” Jiang Cheng rasped, blood already welling at the corners of his mouth. For a long moment, Wei Wuxian simply couldn’t move, despite his thrumming panic and the shouts, the noise emanating from the rest of the Wen soldiers, coming hot on the heels of the one who’d just killed his brother.
It wasn't conscious thought that brought the borrowed sword around and stabbed his brother’s murderer through the eye; only instinct, only rage.
Jiang Cheng didn’t even make a sound as he fell, the Wen soldier’s sword still piercing his chest, as the one who’d wielded it also fell, dead. “Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng,” Wei Wuxian chanted through numb lips, stooping over him, touching his slack and bloodless face. He couldn’t feel anything. “No, no, no, no—”
