“... The public is warned that Black is armed and extremely dangerous. A special hot line has been set up, and any sighting of Black should be reported immediately.” (pg. 17 Prisoner of Azkaban)
A crash came from the kitchen as a small boy on the cusp of being a teenager dropped the plate he’d been drying. Wide, green eyes rested on the small television his uncle and cousin were glued to, the picture of the gaunt man hauntingly familiar.
Even as his uncle and aunt rounded on him to scream about the plate, the boy only uttered a soft whisper.
“Sirius?”

Summary
It’s becoming a painfully frequent tradition for their group to sit on the beach after burning shrouds of some kids that were sent on a far too deadly quest for their age and experience. Between the comfort they all get from being close to the sea that Percy has fine control over, the distance they have from the fucking camp full of kids –fucking hell they’re all so young, why are they so young– and the fact that it’s a space large enough for the 14 twenty-something year olds, it has become a frequent meet up point for them.
...
“You know…” Annabeth starts, louder than before, seeming to pause just long enough for Percy to meet her gaze across the circle. A fact he’s very aware of; it worries him, since the only time she would demand attention like this would be when she needs to be reigned in. “Luke might have been onto something by saying they weren’t fit to rule…”

Tolkientober Day 28: Perseverance
Prince Imrahil and his sons have gone to war, and Lothíriel is left behind. But she trains nonetheless.
PREVIEW:
Lothíriel squinted into the sheet of rain. She pulled back the bow string to her ear and let it go.The arrow sailed through the air, but as it arced, the wind blew it to one side and the rain drove it downward.
It barely hit the target.
She exhaled, furrowing her brow, and pulled another arrow from her quiver.
“Still practicin’, Your Highness? You’ll catch a cold.”

Summary
"Remember," Sansa whispers in Robb's ear. He holds her more tightly to his chest, sure she can feel his heartbeat nearly ready to bound out of it. "Remember what Father always says, and we can do this."
"Winter is coming?"
"Yes, that. And." He feels her take a deep breath, and he tries to commit the way her hair smells to memory. It may be a long time before he sees his dear sister again. "Songs live longer than kingdoms."
"Right," he whispers back, trying not to let his voice break. He finishes the adage. "But there will be plenty songs written about us."
...
