    Summary

    Western esotericism recognizes two paths of attaining one's goals. The right hand path follows specific ethical codes and adopts social convention; while the Left Hand takes the opposite approach, espousing the breaking of taboo and abandoning set morality.
    JKR wrote a series about the quintessential light hero, following the right hand path to specifications of her brand of conventional morality. Personally, I find it flat, hollow, and lacking; especially after she's revealed her true colors. I intend to explore the other side of the house and cultural divide, to breathe life into barely existent characters, and delve into the deliciously dark aspects of the magical world. Not all dark magic is evil, and not all the practitioners are prejudiced genocidal fascists. This is their story.

    Despite their schoolyard rivalry, the Slytherins and Gryffindors have more in common than either of them would admit. Their goals are shockingly similar: to avoid living under the tyrannical regime of a mad dark Lord and shed the shackles of oppression. Their methods, however, could not be more antithetical. After all, it is well known that Slytherins are willing to use any means to achieve their ends, fair and foul alike.

    Summary

    Despite what many may say, Miya Atsumu wasn’t an idiot.

    He heard the things people said about him. He knew what people thought. He’d read every single letter that had been slipped into his locker – and make no mistake, none of them had been confession letters like Osamu liked to joke about.

    Summary

    The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.

    Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?

     

    Or,

     

    In which Tony does not, in fact, intend to take over the world.

    ...unfortunately, everyone else missed that particular memo.

     

    [gradual divergence from canon, starting at the end of Iron Man 3. In which it's Tony's self-awareness, rather than his support system, that becomes a cryptid sometime during Phase II.]

    World Junior Hockey Championship 2009.

    What?
