What's Past is Prologue

words:244611 Chapter:43
romance post-war conversations
It's eight years after the war and Hermione Granger has taken a break from her career at the Ministry of Magic to compile an oral history of the conflict. She's interviewed just about everyone she can get her hands on but she wants to be thorough. And that means getting in contact with a very unwilling Lucius Malfoy. - - - - - "For your information, I'm not shopping it around yet because I still don’t have access to all of the sources I need.” “You’ve got to be joking. You must have interviewed every living person that was even tangentially connected to the war.” “Not everyone,” Hermione said, turning in her seat to reach up for the mug of tea she’d left on the kitchen counter. “Who’s left? The trolley lady from the Hogwarts Express?” “Your father.” Malfoy opened his mouth and then closed it again with a click of his teeth, shaking his head. “You don’t want to do that, Granger.”

July 28th Hermione sighed, set the letter from Quotes and Quills on her coffee table and proceeded to stare at it dejectedly. It was a short letter. A rejection. Her third of the week. It had, perhaps, been arrogant of her—in fact, it had definitely been arrogant—but she had assumed that the publis

They were one, they were three. Bruce was calm, Hulk was ire, and him… he was hate. Hate so deep it could swallow earth and everyone in it. Drown them in pain until all of them died. But maybe there´s one man who can´t be drown. Maybe there´s one man, who can embrace hate. A Devil Hulk, Bruce, Hulk/Tony love story.

Sebastian Moran was not a man who spooked easily. Come to think of it, scaring a man who went almost everywhere armed with several sharp, pointy bits of metal or bits that could be assembled into a gun was an exercise in futility just waiting to happen. His newest visitor scared him more than his employer ever could. Consider that his employer is a psychopath who blew things up on a whim and worked as a consulting criminal mastermind, one wonders exactly how terrifying this man could be to him, one of the RED, as the SAS referred to people like him. Retired, Extremely Dangerous. The movie wasn't far off, come to think of it.

A Cold Space Alone
A Cold Space Alone
There's an assassin haunting the streets of New York's second-largest city who has a particular calling card--scenting his victims with his own pheromones, making him flashy, bold, and perhaps a bit overly dramatic. At least that's what some people think. People like Detective Fletcher Schilling, who has just about had it up to here with not only the killer's theatrics, but also his latest almost-victim's nihilism. Damian McCoy literally wrote the book on the favorite hit man the Polish mob sends after their more high profile enemies and with its publication, he put himself at the wrong end of a silencer. If he could just get to the bottom of why he's alive--then maybe he could help the grumpy Detective who insists on bothering him.

Ah. A smile that wasn’t quite as fake as it should’ve been pulled at the corners of Sung Hyunjae’s lips. What had hit Han Yoojin earlier had seemed like a type of pollen; Yoojin’s poison resistance skill should’ve eliminated it…unless it wasn’t poison. In a dungeon accident, Han Yoojin gets hit with a pollen that his Poison Resistance doesn’t register as poison, and the only other person around is Sung Hyunjae.

Where It All Began
“You know if they’re driving you crazy, as the look on your face would imply, the seat next to me is open,” Stiles grinned. Derek cocked his eyebrow at him. “Which I’m sure you knew as you’ve been sitting in it for the past couple of minutes.” Derek smiled then, tempted. “Thanks, but if I tell them I’m ditching them to talk to a guy, my sisters will never let me hear the end of it.” “Pity,” Stiles said, “’cause I think getting some flak from your siblings would be totally worth it if I got to spend a bit more time with you.” And there it was. Stiles’ eyes – those not-brown, not-hazel eyes – flickered down from Derek’s face to his stomach, where his short-sleeved, button down shirt was undone all the way, leaving his abs exposed to the world, and Stiles’ lingering gaze. The corner of Stiles’ mouth pulled up again before he looked away, picking up his beer and taking another swig. The uncertain worry Derek held in his stomach only moments ago was replaced with uncontrollable, fluttering butterflies. Or where Derek and Stiles meet on vacation at Myrtle Beach.

This fic is set after Liv and Paddy's visit to the prison.

Do not read this if you are triggered by any of the warnings. I hope you all enjoy my first attempt at a fanfic. Constructive comments welcome.
