Summary
"I don’t fear The Great Rest. Not in the way humans do. Why fear something that is a part of life? Something we have all been working toward since birth? I have lived a long and beautiful life since My Human found me, and I have no regrets. But I am not without worries. The tears on My Human’s face worry me. The slumping of her posture worries me. I want to get up and go to her. I want to purr until her heart is soothed and her tears dry and her back straightens. But I’m just so tired. Who will do it when I am gone? Who will bring her mice when she has not eaten and who will zoom around the room to remind her to go to bed and who will sit on her lap and purr when she is stressed? How can I leave her behind? "
Or...
Post-canon; A loving goodbye and a well-earned rest.
A series of canon-compliant one-shots, each told from a different point-of-view, each telling a different part of the story, but each with a common theme. Sometimes waiting in the sidelines is just as hard.Series

Summary
Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.
Fine. Things could be better.
But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.
But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.
What was Peter expecting, really?
(Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

Summary
What he had pictured in his head when he'd first thought of teaching were long, sweeping orations, students hanging on his every word, young minds being taken in and inspired by his message. What he did not fully consider, however, was that he would actually have to teach. (In which Tom Riddle begins teaching at Hogwarts and realizes just what a horribly stupid idea it was.)
