Summary
Sirius Black has a secret. Well, no, that's not true. Sirius Black has many secrets. His wand is dying, his parents more or less want to kill him, and there's the small matter of the cursed TOUJOURS PUR tattoo right above his heart, that he's had since he turned eight years old. Sirius Black is no stranger to secrets.
Then, Remus Lupin walks into his life.
Thus, begins a whole new history - one of darkness, of magic, of bravery, of family - as four boys set out to unwind the endings so many others have written for them.
This is the story of the Marauders at Hogwarts and afterwards, and all the love that lies between.
This is Year One.

Summary
From Iron Dreams Press this Spring - A New, Complete Edition of Nat Rome's alternate history epic, A Wheel Inside A Wheel!
In our world, three and a half centuries ago, two young men, Reinhard von Musel and Yang Wen-li, grew up to become Kaiser Reinhard von Lohengramm, the founder of the Neue Reich, and Fleet Admiral Yang, the greatest commander to have ever lived, and the last, great hope for the Free Planets Alliance.
But in a different lifetime, at age sixteen, Yang Wen-li was forced to flee his father's debts and hide as an outcast in enemy territory, under an assumed false name: Hank von Leigh.
And in a different world, at age ten, Reinhard von Musel and his family became political refugees-- running to the FPA to escape his sister's promised servitude to the Kaiser.
Although Reinhard and Yang have traded places in history, neither of them can escape their destiny: to become the forces that shape the future of the galaxy.
Nat Rome's sweeping saga, A Wheel Inside a Wheel, is a magnetic, operatic, and unforgettable journey through a world that might-have-been, realized with an unprecedented depth and clarity of vision.

Summary
Doflamingo’s mouth went dry. Rosi straightened, hands behind his back, as if he were about to start rocking on his heels. He looked exactly the same as when Doflamingo had last seen him. Sweat and dirt-stained, clothes worn, that thumbprint of their father’s blood at the corner of his chin from where Doflamingo had touched him.
Rationally, it couldn't have been real. He still surveyed the islands across the North Blue and kept a tap on the local news, but had long stopped expecting anything. It had been seven years after all. At this point, Rosi was either dead or didn’t want to be found.
“No,” Doflamingo growled, “No, no, you don’t get to do this to me.”
i.e. That one world in ten billion where Doflamingo tries really damn hard. And it's no prettier world by far. A tale of madness, blood and two brothers searching for each other in the dark. [An AU retelling of the Donquixote brothers]

Summary
Work in progress. "Search for the value of that which you seek, for alchemy already knows." Alchemy knew what Edward wanted when his fingertips touched that circle, but Edward did not yet understand how value differs from price, how equivalent differs from equal. The Gate calculates with one small difference, and Trisha Elric lives - but the cost may be too high for Edward to afford.
[ Originally published on FFN 16 June 2009. A very detailed, very slow exploration of the creators' headcanon through Edward's eyes - and sometimes Roy's - with lengthy discourses on alchemical theory, juicy helpings of political intrigue, a few near-death experiences here and there, and maybe an assassination attempt or two. Explores in detail the political and social spheres of Amestris and beyond in the context of Roy's ladder-climbing, aided by Edward's presence as a researcher. You could consider this a fix-it, but it's more like a highly involved worldbuilding reboot. Long-running, takes time between updates, but chapters are 20-30k long. Be prepared to indulge and suspend your disbelief. Leave canon at the doorstep; this is something else entirely. ]
