Bookmarker's Notes
Delivhtfully well written and well- researched by someone who tells both an excellent story and appreciates J. Austen. Worth quite a few re-reads!

Bookmarker's Notes
Really beatifully written, a "what would happen in all the Ages of Middle Earth if Bilbo went to the Halls of Mandos." And throw in a bit of the idea that friends are the family we make for ourselves, even perhaps in the next life. An excellent read.

Summary
Tony Stark never really believed Steve Rogers would actually marry him, but he'd never dreamed it would be because Bucky Barnes turned up alive on their wedding day. Takes into account all pre-Winter Soldier movies except Tony and Pepper broke up between The Avengers and Iron Man 3 for the usual reasons.

Summary
Merlin is definitely supposed to work for Arthur, but spends most of his time mocking Arthur's dress sense, berating him via IM with Morgana, sending Gwen capslock-filled emails about him and, most of all, trying not to fall in love with the shiny-shoed ponce. Arthur, meanwhile, is definitely supposed to be taking over his father's company some day, but instead spends most of his time scowling at Merlin, making lists about him, trying to find excuses to fire him and, most of all, trying to pretend he is totally not head-over-heels for the jumped up little upstart. Someone's got to make some difficult choices eventually, and this can only lead to one thing: angst. Or hilarity. Or, embarrassingly enough, self-discovery.

Summary
Jaskier stretches his leaves and feels the edges dry under the hot, empty sky. His petals are drooping, losing their bright yellow color. Shame, he thinks, yellow is such a good look for summer.
None of it matters though. He won’t survive today.
He is only a buttercup by the road.
Or,
A flower is saved by a palmful of water. He returns the favor with a lifetime's tears.
