Summary
Della had her face, her long lashes and red cheeks, but Donald reminded Scrooge of his baby sister so much it hurt.
He swallowed, biting his cheek until it ached. Scrooge McDuck would not cry in the back room of some nothing community center next to some nothing church in the middle of who-knows-where.
The twins are growing up, the glowsticks were left unattended, and funerals are hard for everyone.

Summary
“It’s so quiet.”
Her heart lurched at the familiar words. It wasn’t the first time she’d heard them, not by far, but it never failed to turn over something in her chest.
It usually felt like glass.
"Can...can I stay here tonight, please?"
Billy's still struggling to control his telepathy, Agatha's too intuitive for her own good, and they're learning to navigate this new territory together.
(Completed, with epilogue! Can be read as a standalone.)

Summary
“But I won’t know,” he said, “If I got lost again...if I forgot and I woke up as somebody else, nobody would know.”
“I would know.”
He looked at her, really looked at her, for the first time, and she nodded. She’d never been so sure of anything.
“My parents didn’t know,” he said.
“I would know.”
Midnight ER trips are fun for the whole family.
Agatha gets spooked, Billy gets triggered, and doing ancient, deeply consequential rituals is much cheaper than therapy.

Summary
“I didn’t know you were a bunny person,” Eddie says.
Billy swallows, and Scratchy looks at him like he knows.
“He was my friend’s,” he says simply. “She died.”
And that’s it. That’s the truth of it. She was his friend. And then she died.

Summary
She hates this. Hates crying, hates being scared, and more than anything, she hates that she’s doing it in front of Joel. It’s weak and pathetic, and she’s neither of those things. At least she never used to be. Traveling with Joel has helped her toughen up more than FEDRA ever did — the biggest danger she faced at school was fucking Bethany. Now, a million evils lurk around every corner, down every ditch, up every mountain: infected and raiders and hunters, oh my.

Summary
What could be make the winter holidays worse for Arthur than having to entertain the surly King Olaf and his still-entirely-love-smitten daughter Lady Vivian?
Why, doing it during an outbreak of magical mistletoe all over Camelot castle, of course!
Canon compliant (-ish), set between Series 4 and 5, full of lots of banter and general shenanigans.
Thanks as always to my lovely beta reader BlueSimplicity.

Tumblr Drabble, from the prompt:
I bet “let’s have you lazy daisy” is something Merlin’s mother Hunith would say to him -

Summary
When Merlin first hears that Arthur has been betrothed, his ribs pull inwards with an odd little hitch, and he only allows himself a second—which he needs in order to coordinate spinning in place without falling on his face—before he’s running to Arthur’s chambers.

Summary
Even were they not outnumbered - Arthur's experience is in managing skirmishes. In war, he has facilitated the strategies of more senior commanders, if one is being generous. He has not led campaigns.
The faces Merlin sees around him are appropriately grey. Or perhaps it is only that the fog is veiling them, steaming off the water to spread over the banks of the river and under the feet of the men.
A love story in twelve battles, or The Historia Brittonum, but with more sex.
