    Summary

    Kronos had a plan. It was destroyed under his eyes. So the Lord of Time's plan ensured every plan not his would die too. Olympus is more powerful than ever, but so is Perseus Jackson. And unfortunately for them, the soul governing his body is not big on loyalty...

    Summary

    A crossover between Worm and Practical Guide to Evil. It starts with Taylor ending up in Calernia, the world of aPGtE. Where it goes from there, we will have to see. The fic occurs after the Echidna incident in Worm and after Book 2 in aPGtE. I'm aware that the beginning is rather rough and while there's no current plan to revise it, try to bear with it as it's (unfortunately) largely irrelevant for most of the story.

    Summary

    Akua Sahelian, Diabolist of the Dread Empire of Praes, made plans for her death. But she was a villain, and a villain's plan is always thwarted.

    She is reborn a child, then receives both owl letter and professor’s visit upon her eleventh year.

    She is I, and I thought magic missing from this world. But now I am to attend Hogwarts. Alongside a famed hero, of all things. Still, the Boy Who Lived is not prepared for me, and the Dark Lord a paltry inferior to the power I once wielded and demonic armies I summoned.

    This is a new world, and I have a new life. Time to begin a new conquering.

    Summary

    I had been eager to return to Hogwarts, and excited to engage with an actual Villain, though there were three unpleasant surprises that I really should have expected:

    1. There were people even less competent in teaching defensive (or offensive) magic than Quirrel

    2. The Hogwarts population was immune to logic when faced with any sort of crisis

    3. It was socially unacceptable to say "I told you so" when the people you told so were crying

    Still, each of my experimental rituals were immensely successful. (Give or take some side effects.)

    Summary

    The Grand Alliance is defeated. The Dead King unleashes his full power during the Battle of Hainaut, and not even Catherine Foundling - the Black Queen - is able to stand against it. And so in the final act of her redemption arc, Akua Sahelian sacrifices herself to save the day.

    Or at least, that was the plan - but the Gods Below are cheating bastards. They're not going to let Akua off the hook that easily.

    Summary

    Love was never enough. It always fucked you over in the end... but what if just once it didn't? There had never been an enemies to lovers story as good as this. If they had the chance to do it all over again... Gods would hate it, but it'd be amazing. Like being her except with the drunkenness and depression split between two people. It was a terrible idea, but at worse she could just wait a few more years, so why not?

    Alternatively: The Intercessor hijacks the Riddle-Maker's spell and sends Catherine and Akua back to where it all started between them.

    Summary

    In the days of the Titanomachy, when creation was still... under development, the Titan Kronia came across a creature. An ugly thing from an time before time. She should've just squished it between her fingers and moved on. Still, curiousity won out.

    Summary

    “I'm doing the wrong things for the right reasons.”
    “Regrettable...but there was no other way.”
    “If orders say we must burn beautiful Arene to the ground, that is what we must do."
    “Justifications only matter to the just.”

    Phrases, used so often they've became identities. Worn like armor, required for worlds of hard times and hard decisions. They might even be true.
    What happens when they aren't? What happens when the deals for power are suddenly a bad investment? What if the hard decision is becoming simpler, more honest soul?

    Summary

    The best part of being functionally immortal, living centuries after faking your death against a rogue dragon on some shitty mountain in the Levant, Catherine Foundling decided, was living to see her legend taught to every successive generation, in bedrooms and classrooms all around the world.

    (The second-best part was no longer having to give advice to whatever prince held enough clout to arrange a meeting between them, especially when the answer to their problem was usually, "Your firstborn child is an incompetent fool who should be assassinated as soon as you return to your domain.")

    The worst part of being functionally immortal and living thousands of years was not, in fact, having to see people be wrong about her— no, she had not been sleeping with Vivienne. Even after centuries of late nights drinking, her friend's sexuality had never wavered.

    The worst part was watching the history of her friends be taught in the lecture halls she had finagled the budget to build before hers was.

    Summary

    Series of one-shot crossovers between A Practical Guide to Evil and Star Wars

    The Jedi believed the Sith were the worst evil they would ever have to face in their lifetimes.

    But as some deities given the power to amuse themselves breaking the veil between dimensions can attest, there are worse things out in the multiverse...and this includes the Dread Emperors and Dread Empresses of Praes.

    Beware Jedi and other mortals, the true face of Evil is about to be unleashed on your unprepared galaxy...
