Summary
Politics is everything Jamie wants out of life. The law is in her blood and rhetoric is imprinted on her soul. It is a challenge and a game in one package. She smiles at senators with her blood red lips and dark nails. She twirls her hair to disarm and speaks to eviscerate.
Jamie Lyman succeeds thorough sheer force of will. She softly states her opinions when asked and shouts them when she’s not. She forces the world to take notice and dares it not to.
A look at a world where Joshua is born Jasmine.

As for forgetting … there are nights where you wake up in cold sweat realizing that you can’t remember your Grandma’s voice or the exact scent of your mother’s favorite perfume On these nights you sit for hours mouthing stories about each of your family members in Spanish.

Summary
A Leonard Snart-centric character study in fifteen pieces:
- Teach your sister everything you can. Teach her how to tie her shoes and braid her hair, teach her how to tell a forgery from a masterpiece. Teach her the words plausible deniability. But most importantly teach her what love feels like.
- Trust Mick Rory (but only as far as you can throw him). Mick Rory stood up for you once for no fathomable reason and he's been standing up for you ever since. Not that you haven't done the same for him.
(As it turns out, you can throw Mick Rory pretty far. Out of the city, out of your jobs, out of your life (even out of the time stream but that will come later))

Summary
An early season 2 Grant Ward centric character study in fifteen pieces:
"7. Learn as many languages as you can. Speech is power, don't let them silence you. Never be silent again.
12. Become a chameleon. Learn to blend in everywhere you go. Learn to be the American, the Canadian, the man from everywhere. Become the serious man, the drunken man, the fool. Learn to become everything and everyone then use these roles interchangeably. (Do not become the love struck idiot. It will get you killed)"

Summary
A Leia-centric character study in fifteen pieces:
"9. Allow yourself to believe, if only for a few moments, that the empire never existed and no group rose to take its place. Imagine yourself with Luke on Alderaan (Not with Vader. Never with Vader. He will never be your father especially not in your fantasy). Han will be there too. The reluctant king to your warrior queen (not that there will be need for a warrior queen. Even in peace you cannot imagine yourself without the strength that has defined your life). There will be peace and laughter and Ben, your sweet Ben.
10. Do not let these fantasy's consume you. Wishes are nice but you have a war to fight."

Summary
“I’m sending him to the Galactic Negotiations.”
“Are you fucking kidding me?” Aquaman nearly shouted.
Clark had forgotten he was there. When did he learn curse words? Ma would be so disappointed.
“I wasn’t allowed to attend single planet negotiations, let alone Galactic Negotiations, until my eighth year and I’m a founding member. And you’re going to send Nightwing in a Batman cosplay-”
When did he learn about cosplay? Why did Clark know what he was talking about?
“To the biggest event in the galaxy?” Arthur asked.

Summary
And there Merlin stands, shoulders back, chest out, chin tilted upward toward the sky, like a nobleman, like a king. With every creature, everything object, everything around him, his subject. Waiting, listening intently for his next proclamation. And Arthur finds himself one of them. One of the enraptured.
Because it’s not just beauty and it’s not just magic. It’s something deeper. Something from the very essence of Merlin’s being finally coming back to the surface. It’s grace and kindness. It’s virtue and divine right.
Merlin doesn’t even try to fight the smile on his face and it’s Arthur’s undoing. He lets himself fall deeper in love than he thought possible into that dangerous sort of love that inspires wars and centuries of peace.
