I AM LADY NEAR-RETELL
DEDICATION: I want to thank the wonderful folks at the Harry Potter Lexicon for helping me keep my canon straight (even when I'm writing slash), everyone on LiveJournal who has posted encouraging feedback on my writing and notified me of errors, and of course the incomparable J. K. Rowling, without whom none of this would be possible.
DISCLAIMER: Harry Potter and the wizarding world are the sole property of J. K. Rowling. I own nothing except my own ideas, and make no profit. No copyright infringement is intended. Please don't sue me.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This page is currently undergoing a major canon-edit to bring these stories as much in line with completed canon as possible. Some, however, must perforce be relegated to Alternate Universe (AU), and are marked as such below. Fics are arranged more or less chronologically in the Potterverse.

Original Characters Index
Title: Gryffindor on the Cusp of Slytherin (1942 - 1943)
Rating: PG-13 for adult themes
Status: Complete (6949 words)
Written: May 2007 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: Drama, AU
Characters: Lina McLaggen, Tom Riddle, Walburga Black, unnamed elderly witch (OC), Jovis McLaggen (OC), Albus Dumbledore, Myrtle Jorkins, Armando Dippet, Galatea Merrythought, Claudia Zeller (OC), Miss Bones (OC)
Pairings: Tom/Lina
Summary: A Gryffindor girl learns why Slytherin boys are better left alone.
A/N: If you think Lina is an OC, think again. This story serves in part to demonstrate my theory that a certain well-known Potterverse character is not what she seems. Also, it was a hell of a lot of fun to write.
Title: The Education of Madeleine Yaxley (1974 - 1975)
Rating: NC-17 for underage sex, sexual abuse, attempted rape, masturbation, dubious consent, group sex, incest, femmeslash, slash
Status: Complete (16035 words)
Written: February 2007 - December 2008 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Drama, Smut, Coming of Age
Characters: Madeleine Yaxley (OC), Cartimandua Venuti-Yaxley (OC), Cartimandua's lover (OC), Squeaker the house-elf (OC), Rabastan Lestrange, Rodolphus Lestrange, Bellatrix Lestrange, Narcissa Malfoy, Lucius Malfoy, Professor Sprout, Professor Slughorn, Severus Snape, Lily Evans, James Potter, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew
Pairings: Cartimandua/unnamed, unnamed/Madeleine, Rabastan/Madeleine, Rodolphus/Bellatrix, Lucius/Narcissa, Bellatrix/Madeleine, Bellatrix/Narcissa, Rabastan/Bellatrix, Lucius/Madeleine, Peter/Madeleine
Summary: Madeleine Yaxley tries to be a good pure-blood girl, but when you're 15, sometimes it's hard to know what the rules are.
A/N: Normally I use Madeleine as a secondary character, but I feel she has earned her own backstory to explain a few things about her. The purpose of this story is to explore some of the sexual myths which are frequently perpetuated among teenagers regarding things like the importance of virginity and what "counts" as sex. If you have ever been a teenager, this fic is for you.
Title: M.A.R.Y.S.U.E. Must Die: A Morality Tale of Canon Rape (1975)
Rating: PG-13 for allusion to sex and coarse language
Status: Complete (10148 words)
Written: January - February 2007 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: Crack!Fic, Fandom Parody
Characters: Madeleine Yaxley (OC), Maggie Lewis (OC), Marvola Arwen Raevyn Yvette Salazara Umekiko Elfynchyld (OC), Sorting Hat, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, James Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Lily Evans, Louisa (OC), Minerva McGonagall, Albus Dumbledore, Special Agent Sam "Boggart" Humphries (OC)
Pairings: Remus/Maggie, Remus/Marvola, Peter/Madeleine, James/Lily
Summary: A new girl arrives at Hogwarts. She's perfect. She's beautiful. She has curves in all the right places. Everyone loves her. Everyone except Madeleine and Maggie, that is. With many amusing and enlightening footnotes on "how not to write fanfic".
A/N: Dedicated to the wonderful thing that is babb_chronicles, who inspired so much of this story. This is my first attempt at putting OC's in leading roles. Please be kind to my girls! Thank you to eskimosatan for generously allowing me to borrow the D.T.U.C.
Title: The Thirteenth Use of Dragons' Blood (March 1976)
Rating: NC-17 for sex
Status: Complete (2797 words)
Written: February 2009
Genre: Smut, Teen, First Time
Characters: Severus Snape, Lily Evans
Pairing: Severus/Lily
Summary: It's Spring, they're sixteen, and studying for OWLs is not exactly the first thing on their minds.
A/N: Sometimes, just just have to write unapologetic smut. This may, at some point, be expanded to include the rest of Lily and Snape's short romance.
Title: The Plot Bunny (Spring 1977)
Rating: PG-13 for masturbation (brief)
Status: Complete (1243 words)
Written: October 2006 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: Crack!Fic
Characters: Severus Snape, Gilderoy Lockhart, Regulus Black, Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, Maggie Lewis (OC) and friends, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, James Potter, Peter Pettigrew
Pairings: Severus/Regulus (if you squint), Lockhart/himself, James/Lily (implied), Remus/Sirius (implied)
Summary: In which we learn why Snape decided to give the world of Animagi a miss.
A/N: I had this idea floating around in my head for a long time, but it was spryjojo's fault that I finally wrote it down.
Title: That Awful Boy (August 1977)
Rating: NC-17 for sex and mind-altering drugs potions
Status: Complete (6005 words)
Written: June 2007 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: Drama, Romance, Teen, Smut
Characters: Severus Snape, Lily Evans, Harry and Rose Evans (Lily's parents, OCs), Petunia Evans
Pairing: Severus/Lily
Summary: In the summer before their seventh year, Lily and Severus attempt to renew their friendship with mixed results.
A/N: This story was originally written pre-DH, and has since been edited to take canon into account. However, "Tuney" is a horrible nickname, and I'm going to stick with my original "Petty". The original version is still available here.
Title: Excerpts From the Diary of Regulus Black (June 1971 - October 1979) (text-only version)
Rating: R for language, character death, underage sex and dubious consent
Status: Complete (1489 words)
Written: May - June 2005 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: AU due to DH, Angst, Slash, Multimedia (paper, pen, marker, water, chocolate, photoshop)
Characters: Regulus, Sirius, Orion & Walburga Black, Severus Snape
Pairing: Regulus/Severus, Remus/Sirius (mentioned)
Summary: Sixteen significant entries from Regulus's diary dating between 1971 and 1979 (dates corrected in text version to bring them in line with canon). His thoughts about his brother, his family, his love life and his intense desire to have someone be proud of him.
A/N: This came to me all at once and very very suddenly. It just made perfect sense. I finished it in two days. I am very proud of it. Deathly Hallows nudged the ending into the realm of AU, but the rest of it still fits with canon.
Title: Fuck Toy (April 1977 - October 1979)
Rating: NC-17 for language, non-con, underage sex, violence and character death
Status: Complete (4450 words)
Written: June 2005 (canon-edited December 2008)
Genre: Angst, Slash, Drama, AU
Characters: Severus Snape, Regulus Black, Gilderoy Lockhart, Voldemort, Bellatrix Lestrange, Kreacher, Albus Dumbledore
Pairing: Regulus/Severus, (Severus/Lily, Severus/Lockhart, Lockhart/Slughorn mentioned)
Summary: Sequel to Excerpts From the Diary of Regulus Black. Snape's relationship with Regulus Black, why he changed sides and why Dumbledore is reluctant to share the reason publicly. DH didn't tell the whole story.
A/N: Written due to the demand for more Regulus/Severus after I posted the diaries. This is dedicated to Reda who keeps telling me Snape is not such a bad guy deep down. Much of this story has been tweaked to bring it in line with completed canon, but the ending still falls into the realm of AU.
Title: A Polyjuice Duet (Spring 1978)
Rating: NC-17 for sex
Status: Complete (7814 words)
Written: August - September 2004 (canon-edited January 2009)
Genre: Humour, Smut
Characters: Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, James Potter
Pairings: Remus/Sirius, James/Lily (implied), Peter/OC (implied), Remus/Lily (in a way)
Summary: Sirius discovers an interesting book in the Restricted Section of the Hogwarts library. Polyjuice hijinks ensue.
A/N: The idea for this fic hit me one day when I was overtired and driving home from work. I could not stop laughing until I got home and wrote it all down. Thank you to fadagaski for the plot bunny for part two.
Title: There is a War (February 1978 - August 1980)
Rating: Varies by section, from PG-13 to NC-17 for language, sex, violence and non-con
Status: Complete (23616 words)
Written: July 2006 - January 2007 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Drama, Romance
Characters: Lily Evans, James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Rabastan Lestrange, Severus Snape, Alice Longbottom, Marlene McKinnon, Dorcas Meadows, Vernon and Petunia Dursley, Andromeda Tonks, Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter, Joseph Potter (OC), St Mungo's Purchasing Witch (OC), MLE Detective Cassandra Clarke (OC), St Mungo's Midwife Renata (OC), Unnamed Death Eaters
Pairings: James/Lily, Remus/Sirius, Rabastan/Lily, Snape/Lily, Frank/Alice, Sturgis/Dorcas, Vernon/Petunia, Peter/OC
Summary: The romance of James Potter and Lily Evans, beginning in their 7th year at Hogwarts and continuing through Harry's birth. It's not what you thought it was. A kiss, a rape, a tragedy, a night of passion, a wedding, a pregnancy, a narrow escape, and a birth.
A/N: I believe James and Lily's marriage was the result of emotions running high due to the war. And I do not believe they would have lasted had they lived. Did I mention I don't like James? There is a War lyrics by Leonard Cohen.
Title: Son and Heir (5 June 1980)
Rating: R for language, violence, and pure-blood mentality
Status: Complete (1290 words)
Written: March 2005 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Drama
Characters: Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy, Draco Malfoy, midwife, unnamed baby
Pairings: Narcissa/Lucius
Summary: The less-than-joyful circumstances of Draco's birth.
A/N: A quote I found from J.K. Rowling about the book at Hogwarts where all magical children's names are recorded when they are born got me thinking.
Title: Secret Keepers (Autumn 1981)
Rating: Varies by section, from PG to R for language, sex, and violence
Status: Complete (21257 words)
Written: July 2004 - October 2005 (hiatus August 2004 - October 2005) (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Drama
Characters: Lily, James and Harry Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Albus Dumbledore, Madeleine Yaxley (OC), Voldemort, Mrs Pettigrew, Rubeus Hagrid, Arthur Weasley
Pairings: James/Lily, Remus/Sirius, Peter/OC
Summary: The final days leading up to the Potters' deaths and the measures they took and the mistakes they made in their struggle for survival. In which Lily resorts to Dark Magic, James is not a hero, Peter explains himself, and Harry sees all and understands very little.
A/N: I am really quite proud of this little series. Thank you to Lilith_L over on FictionAlley.org, who fed me the plot bunny for part three after reading part two. And long live angsty!baby fic!
Title: One Hell of a Woman (October 1982)
Rating: R for sexual...something
Status: Complete (2829 words)
Written: September 2007 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Smut
Characters: Kingsley Shacklebolt, Quirinus Quirrell, Lorcan d'Eath, Professor Midgen (OC), staff room gargoyles, Helga Hufflepuff
Pairings: Kingsley/Helga
Summary: Kingsley becomes obsessed with his house's Founder.
A/N: This fic was part of a bizarro pairings challenge on hp_adult.

Rating: Varies by chapter, from G to NC-17
Status: Complete (61621 words)

Summary: Sirius's imprisonment and experiences in Azkaban, his escape, and his struggle to prove his innocence to his former lover and the son of his best friend. Second half parallels Prisoner of Azkaban.
A/N: This is a very different feeling story from Moony's Tale. Sirius's memories during his time in Azkaban give the story a very dark and angsty flavour from the very beginning.
Title: Survivor's Guilt: Moony's Tale (August 1993 - June 1994)
Rating: Varies by chapter from G to PG-13 with one brief NC-17

Summary: A retelling of Prisoner of Azkaban from the point of view of Remus Lupin. Remus's struggle to come to terms with the fact that his former lover may be trying to kill the son of his dead friends.
A/N: My first fanfic. The Prisoner of Azkaban movie made me do it. A big thank you to my betas, goldennotblonde and aurora_paws!
Note: I would like to thank hp_joss_isboss for the amazing fanmix she put together for Survivor's Guilt. Her song choices are spot-on!
Title: The Tropical Adventures of Moony and Padfoot (June - September 1994)
Rating: Varies by chapter from G to NC-17
Status: In Progress... (19869 words)
Written: December 2005 - present
Genre: Romance, Drama
Characters: Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Albus Dumbledore, Nymphadora Tonks, Muggle sailor (OC), Buckbeak, Banji Mashaka (OC), car rental agent (OC), Heather the pirate expert (real person)
Pairings: Remus/Sirius
Summary: Where Remus and Sirius really were during the summer between PoA and GoF.
A/N: It's time the pups had a little well-deserved happiness, isn't it? The wonderful artwork in the first chapter is courtesy of shishio.
Title: Paper Thin Hotel (Early 1996)
Rating: NC-17 for language, explicit sex and prostitution
Status: Complete (1925 words)
Written: December 2005 - December 2006 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Angst, Slash
Characters: Severus Snape, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, a Madam (OC), a prostitute (OC)
Pairing: Regulus/Severus (Remus/Sirius, Severus/Lily mentioned)
Summary: Sometimes life at Grimmauld Place is more than Severus can stand. Especially when Remus and Sirius are in the next room. When that happens, there's only one place he can go.
A/N: jin_fenghuang made me do it, with her angsty, Snape-lovin' ways. "Paper Thin Hotel" lyrics are property of Leonard Cohen.
Title: Linked (June 1996)
Rating: PG
Status: Complete (1749 words)
Written: June 2007 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Drama, Light Slash
Characters: Harry Potter, Neville Longbottom
Pairings: Harry/Neville
Summary: In the days following the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, Harry has trouble sleeping. He decides to talk to the one person who might understand.
A/N: I don't write trio-generation fic very often, and I almost never write trio-generation slash. But I've been rereading OotP, and this tiny, fluffy bunny would not leave me alone. Why is this pairing not more popular?
Title: The Power of Two: A Tale of the Second War (Autumn 1996 - June 1998)
Rating: Varies by chapter, from G to PG-13 for character death, violence, banter and occasional language
Status: Complete (34006 words)
Written: August 2004 - October 2007 (hiatus April 2005 - February 2007)
Genre: Drama (AU post-OotP)
Characters: Fred, George, Molly, Arthur, Ginny and Ron Weasley, Remus Lupin, Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Ernie Macmillan, Padma Patil, Colin Creevey, Alastor Moody, Nymphadora Tonks, Rubeus Hagrid, [Isaac] Ollivander, Nearly-Headless Nick, Severus Snape, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Frank and Alice Longbottom, Voldemort, Bellatrix Lestrange, Rabastan Lestrange, Fenrir Greyback, Narcissa Malfoy, Peter Pettigrew, St Mungo's Healer (OC), Eurydice MacEoghan (OC), Madeleine Yaxley (OC), Natalie Lupin (OC), John (OC), [Sir Anson Dubh (OC)]
Pairings: (Peripheral only) Remus/Sirius, Neville/Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, Arthur/Molly, Ernie/Luna, Peter/Madeleine (OC), slight Remus/Tonks
Summary: A tragic incident in Knockturn Alley sparks a series of events that will bring about the end of the second war.
A/N: With the release of HBP, this story perforce became AU. I changed a few details for the sake of canon, but there was little I could do about the overall shape of the story. Don't expect much post-OotP canon. There are no horcruxes here, and I liked my version of Voldemort's mother so she's staying.
Title: The Night Before: A Tale of the Second War (June 1998)
Rating: Varies by chapter from PG to NC-17 for sex
Status: Complete (17383 words)

Summary: A spinoff of The Power of Two, taking place at the same time as Chapter 11, and looking at what a few other characters are doing on the eve of the final battle.
A/N: Chapters are overlapping and somewhat out of sequence, and are therefore unnumbered.
Title: The Great Unknown (Post-OotP)
Rating: PG for language
Status: Complete (1622 words)
Written: January 2007 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Romance, Angst, AU, Crossover with A Series of Unfortunate Events
Characters: Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Quigley Quagmire (aSoUE), Hieronymus the bar tender (AoBM)
Pairings: Remus/Sirius, Quigley/Violet
Summary: Sirius makes a new friend beyond the Veil.
A/N: My first crossover fic. I hadn't meant to write anything dating after The Power of Two, but this just sort of wandered into my brain. It might qualify as a happy ending, but there's room for debate. Thank you to Matthew of Psycho Bunny Forge for the word "dissipate", which I could not think of on my own, and for the suggestion as to who might be tending bar in such a place as this.
Title: Thrall (July 1998)
Rating: NC-17 for slash, incest and vampirism
Status: Complete (5177 words)
Written: October 2007 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Smut
Characters: Ron Weasley, Molly Weasley, Lorcan d'Eath, Hermione Granger, Azkaban guard (OC), Guardswitch Murray (OC)

Summary: While cleaning the attic at the Burrow, Ron finds something his mother hid away long ago, and for good reason.
A/N: This fic was part of a bizarro pairings challenge on hp_adult.

Written: February 2009
Genre: Fluff, Friendship, Romance

Pairings: Dudley/Cho
Summary: At Harry and Ginny's wedding, Dudley discovers that every girl in the Wizarding world wants to meet famous Harry Potter's cousin.
A/N: I love writing odd pairings, and after Deathly Hallows, I really wanted to see Dudley continue to grow as a person.
Title: Backstage (No Year)
Rating: PG-13 for banter and language
Status: Complete (11110 words)
Written: September 2004 - November 2006 (canon-edited February 2009)
Genre: Crack!Fic (AU)
Characters: Various incarnations of Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, James Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Lily Evans Potter, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, the Weasleys, Gilderoy Lockhart, Nymphadora Tonks, Alastor Moody, Draco, Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy, Severus Snape, Regulus Black, the Dursleys, Minerva McGonagall, Sybil Trelawney, Albus Dumbledore, Filius Flitwick, Rubeus Hagrid, Draco, Voldemort, Dobby, the giant squid, and a few OCs thrown in for variety.
Pairings: Remus/Sirius, Regulus/Severus, Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny, James/Lily, Peter/OC, Remus/Hermione, Arthur/Molly, Lucius/Narcissa, Harry/Draco, Harry/Severus, Harry/Remus
Summary: A behind the scenes look at what the various characters get up to when they're not "acting" in canon or fic.
A/N: It sounded funny in my head, but that doesn't always make it funny to anyone else. Thank you to cenori for the original plot bunny. Part two was inspired by a late-night conversation with jin_fenghuang which started (I think) with the Hogwarts staff's preferred cocktails, and progressed to what they'd sing on karaoke night. The rest is history.
Title: In Dreams Alone
Fandom: Doctor Who
Rating: PG
Status: Complete (422 words)
Written: September 2007
Genre: Angst
Characters: Rose Tyler, Tenth Doctor
Pairings: Ten/Rose
Summary: The dreams are the only thing that seem real anymore. (Spoilers for Doomsday)
A/N: My very first Doctor Who fic.
Title: No One to Blame But Myself
Fandom: Tamora Pierce's Tortall Series
Rating: PG-13
Status: In Progress... (3693 words)
Written: May 2005 - present (on hiatus)
Genre: Drama, AU
Characters: Alanna of Trebond, Faithful, Delia of Eldorne, Thom of Trebond, Maggie (OC), Raoul of Goldenlake, Ralon of Malven, Lady Jessamin (OC), Myles of Olau, the Lord Provost, Duke Baird, King Roald, Duke Roger of Conte, Alex of Tirragen
Pairings: Thom/Roger/Alex, Roger/Alanna
Summary: Alanna decided to prove herself as a lady rather than a knight. At the age of 15, she is presented at court. It is rumoured the heir to the throne is seeking a wife. (Spoilers for "the Song of the Lioness" Quartet)
A/N: This is a very dark story. The court Alanna finds is very different from the one that exists in In the Hand of the Goddess.
Title: Daine's Choice
Fandom: Tamora Pierce's Tortall Series
Rating: PG-13
Status: In Progress... (1506 words)
Written: February 2003 - present (on hiatus)
Genre: Romance
Characters: Daine Sarrasri, Numair Salmalin, Skysong
Pairings: Daine/Numair
Summary: In the aftermath of the war with Carthak, Daine takes the time to examine her heart. (Spoilers for "the Immortals" Quartet)
A/N: I think this might be my first ever attempt at fanfic, before I was really even aware of the genre. It was spawned from my frustrations with the lack of romantic subplot in the "Immortals" quartet.
Title: Family
Fandom: Diana Gabaldon's Outlander Series
Rating: PG
Status: Complete (691 words)
Written: November 2006
Genre: Drama
Characters: Brianna, Roger, Jemmy and Amanda MacKenzie
Pairings: Roger/Brianna
Summary: Brianna goes on a journey to find one more family member. (Spoilers for A Breath of Snow and Ashes)
A/N: I know Diana disapproves of fanfiction, but I thought maybe a little one couldn't hurt.
(WARNING: Here be Sues)
Title: Archie Smith, Boy Wonder
Rating: PG
Status: Unfinished (4139 words)
Written: 1994ish
Genre: Fantasy, Drama, Stu/Suefic
Characters: Archie Smith (aka ERTHCHYL, aka Prince LYFENPHYAR), Princess CHYLFRAN, King SANLAEDER, Queen LYTSTAER, King GULDONFYRE, unnamed Queen, Sorceress Goljabar, fairies, six noble children
Pairings: SANLAEDER/LYTSTAER, GULDONFYRE/Queen, obviously heading toward LYFENPHYAR/CHYLFRAN
Summary: An ordinary boy finds out he has a Very Special Destiny in another world. With a princess. Who can talk to animals.
A/N: The original idea for this story came from a book by Chris Van Allsburg, one of my favourite illustrators. It was called The Mysteries of Harris Burdick, which I used to check out from my elementary school library all the time (I now own my own copy). On each page was a title of a story, a line from the story and a single illustration. I wanted to write a story to go with every page of that wonderful book, but the first illustration is as far as I ever got.
Title: Hero Fighter
Rating: PG
Status: Unfinished (8703 words)
Written: 1994ish
Genre: Fantasy, Drama, Suefic
Characters: Dominique (aka Dominic, aka Dagger), Prince Gem, Fern, Johnnie, Stephan, Scisily (deceased), a steward
Pairings: Gem/Dominique, slight Gem/Fern, Stephan/Scisily
Summary: A young girl disguises herself as a boy in order to become a warrior. She and the handsome prince begin a rivalry, but he finds her out and they fall in lurve. And have a Very Special Destiny.
A/N: Heavily, heavily influenced by my great love of Tamora Pierce. This story may have undergone some editing in 2001, but clearly not enough.
Title: The Legend of the Silver Statue
Rating: PG
Status: Unfinished (4315 words)
Written: 1994ish
Genre: Fantasy, Drama, Suefic
Characters: Saro, the Stranger (aka Argentus), Cass the Friendly Panther, Jenina, Jerim the Bard, an unexplained sorceror, villagers, outlaws
Pairings: Argentus/Saro, probably
Summary: A young outlaw chief and her pet panther must help a mysterious stranger on his quest to find a Very Special Destiny.
A/N: Years ago, my friend (then boyfriend) TKF told me about a story he was writing, wherein one of the characters was based on myself. I liked his description so much (vanity!) that I lifted the character and stuck her in this story. The Stranger's appearance, if not his personality, is partially based on TKF.
Title: Come and See
Rating: PG
Status: Unfinished (5355 words)
Written: 1994ish
Genre: Fantasy, Humour, Suefic
Characters: Molly (aka Amara Nimus), Danae (aka Nepa Cor), Liz (aka Shayseah Lins), Violet (aka Digna Amara), Raven, Silvis Don, Saris Cli Vadum, Lis Domin, Sir Gemin, Pell, the Engineer, the Stewardess
Pairings: Fortunately none yet
Summary: Welcome to the land of Very Special Destinies! And fun! Don't forget fun! And Clever Wordplay!
A/N: I am very fond of this particular piece of autobiographical fantasy. That is not to say I am especially proud of it, or think it is in any way a great story. It is based on my high school church camp and a number of the people I knew there. The difference between this and the above stories is that this one is actually meant to be very, very silly. I used to have about 13 chapters of this story on my computer, but accidentally erased it. I still have a hard copy, but re-typing would be a bitch. The dedication is from something I wrote when I was in first grade.
