Summary
WELCOME ABOARD THE HAIL MARY.
“The Hail Mary?” The name reminded him of Eden. But Eden could only dream of this much light. This had to be heaven.
Before the robovoice said any more, footsteps thudded towards them. Simon crawled back. Why weren’t his legs working? He looked down and at least they were still there. Oh God, please be heaven and not hell.
A glowing figure threw the door open.
ELEVATED STRESS SIGNALS DETECTED. PLEASE BREATHE AT THE TONE.
His vision blurred again and he couldn’t even hear the chime this time, just strange musical notes. He could see the glowing figure dim into the shape of a man. No, no, this couldn’t be hell. After all, hell didn’t have angels.

Just your typical bloodymary fic. Let the poor boy live.

Summary
Simon waited.
Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.
But that never came.
Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”
Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

Summary
Toni’s gums ache for a split second, fresh blood flooding her mouth before she swallows it.
And in that next second that curl of darkness inside of her sits up and decides that this, that Howard’s continued cruelty and abuse, will no longer be allowed.
Toni licks the blood from her now too sharp teeth before she plants her hands on the floor in front of her and pushes herself back up onto her feet.
This time when Howard lashes out at her Toni ducks low to avoid the blow.
Crouched on the hall floor, sharp nails digging into the dark wood beneath her, Toni hisses, takes a moment to calculate, and then she leaps.

Summary
Harry hates Cormac McLaggen. Smug, superior, and “totally harassing” Hermione - at least, that’s what he’s convinced himself of.
Meanwhile, Hermione is crushing hard on the charming older student who actually listens, laughs with her, and makes her heart race. Finally, her high school romance moment…if only Harry and Ron would get out of the way.
Since we all know Harry is an unreliable narrator, a brain worm wormed its way into me - what if Harry's perspective of Cormac was way off?
