Beyond the Outer Gate Lies by
gabriel blessing reviews
Harry Dresden had thought he'd seen it all. So had the voice inside his head for that matter. But when one of his all too typical wild weekends ends up with him stranded far outside the Outer Gates, beyond the stretch of even creation itself, he finds out that there are other things out there, laying in wait. Still doesn't make it any easier to make rent on time though...

Harry Is A Dragon, And That's Okay by
Saphroneth reviews
Harry Potter is a dragon. He's been a dragon for several years, and frankly he's quite used to the idea - after all, in his experience nobody ever comments about it, so presumably it's just what happens sometimes. Magic, though, THAT is something entirely new. Comedy fic, leading on from the consequenes of one... admittedly quite large... change. Cover art by amalgamzaku.

Birth and Re-Death by
ThreeDollarBratwurst reviews
I swear, every time I turn around, someone else has got a clever idea to get me killed. And it usually works. Death doesn't seem too keen on sticking with me, though, so I guess I can get over it. Self-insert, mostly for fun. Rated T for now, might change in future.

Sir Teatei Moonlight reviews
{Diverges at Galahad} [Spoilers] The Face Nemesis Core Unit has been killed. The auxiliary soul it harbours must find a new host immediately in order to survive - even if it means sitting upon a heart tied to the greatest enemy of her existence. (Rated T for the kind of stuff seen in-game, plus some morbid thoughts and a British swear or two.)

When Harry met Mab by
TheRedPoet reviews
'I love you'. I dare you to to find three words more powerful. Almost all of us are on the receiving end of those words at one point or another in our lives and those moments are often some of the most important. It's always a poignant thing even if it's sometimes unexpected. And believe you me, I wasn't expecting it when the Queen of Air of Darkness told me she loved me.
