ach Iâm never gonna finish this and itâs been too long, so hereâs the half done painting inspired by Heal Thyself & based on The Agnew Clinic by Thomas Eakins

Heal Thyself by astolat @astolat
"Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.â
âWhat course?â Draco said, then, âNo, donât be ridiculous,â when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board heâd been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizardâs Office By August 24th.
âOh, I thought you might,â she said. âWell, goodbye.â And off she wandered again in her addled way.
So cool!
Hanukkah story #8! This is the long one, so I saved it for last!
This particular story came from an amazing genetics paper that I saw linked on Tumblr many many years ago, where a fangirl came up with a plausible explanation for the mechanisms of wizarding inheritance, and my brain immediately grabbed onto this and ran with it, only it stopped running a short way from the end and got stuck until Lim helped me work it out of the mire!

Hanukkah story #7!
This is a story I mostly wrote way back in Season 1. I do love the wacky-hijinx tone of the Lucifer show, but I also always want fantasy to take its mythology seriously--so here's me doing that.
Inheritance (3921 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Lucifer (TV) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Chloe Decker/Lucifer Morningstar, Chloe Decker/Dan Espinoza Characters: Lucifer Morningstar (Lucifer TV), Chloe Decker, Mazikeen (Lucifer TV), Amenadiel (Lucifer TV), Death of the Endless, God (Lucifer TV), Destiny of the Endless Summary: He didnât tell her, Iâll die if you leave me, even though it was quite literally true.
Hanukkah story #6!
So I found the Hobbit movies very unsatisfying, and in particular the Tauriel/Legolas/Kili "love triangle" was just sort of baffling, and I also didn't like (even though I find it more comprehensible) the use of Gimli as comic relief in the LOTR films. Those dissatisfactions are where this little story came from, trying to make them all work with my own inner sense of these characters and the world.
This is preslash in my own head, but YMMV!
Looking At Stone (1825 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Lord of the Rings - All Media Types, The Hobbit (Jackson Movies) Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Gimli/Legolas Greenleaf Characters: Legolas Greenleaf, Gimli (Tolkien), Tauriel (Hobbit Movies), Galadriel (Tolkien) Additional Tags: preslash Summary: Legolas looked at the Dwarf to dislike, when first the Fellowship left Rivendell, and was satisfied with everything he saw. To the memory-shadow of Tauriel that lived yet in his mind, he listed the faults one after another. Did you truly love such a one? he asked her silently, disdainful.
Hanukkah story #5! This one is just a very little scenelet I wrote after S1 of Good Omens that never turned into a longer story.
Hallelujah (848 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Good Omens (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens) Characters: Aziraphale (Good Omens), Crowley (Good Omens) Additional Tags: Season 1 Summary: This most wonderful and unexpected of all days, the first day after the end of the world.
Hanukkah story #4!
This is a bit of an odd story, because I wrote it to noodle some ideas that I ended up using in less cracktastic ways for A Man of Honor instead, and the Robb in this story isn't really the Robb in canon, he's much more like the Robb at the end of The Pack Survives, after ten years of life and experience.
Lim once described Robb to me as a half-open flower: caught forever in that moment of becoming, before we can really see who he's going to be--and that feels very true to me as the thing that interests me about the character, all the different paths he could have followed. That's what almost all of the Robb stories I've done are exploring.
But this one is really just about him messing with Jaime Lannister. đ
Tourney Field (6688 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Game of Thrones (TV) Rating: Explicit Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Jaime Lannister/Robb Stark, Jaime Lannister & Tyrion Lannister Characters: Jaime Lannister, Tyrion Lannister, Tywin Lannister, Robb Stark, Grey Wind | Robb Stark's Direwolf Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence Series: Part 22 of Game of Thrones works Summary: âA friend from Derry tells me that Lord Stark is entering the tourney at the Crossings,â Tyrion said. âHeâs what?â Jaime said incredulously. âHis first tourney at forty?â âNot that Lord Stark,â Tyrion said. âThe young one. Robb, I think his name is.â
Hanukkah story #3! This is a Dom/Brian story I wrote back in 2015 that... somewhat appropriately, I managed to just forget about. đ More than a bit dark in places!
Oubliette (3479 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Fast & Furious (Movies) Rating: Explicit Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Brian O'Conner/Dominic Toretto Characters: Dominic Toretto, Brian O'Conner Series: Part 15 of Fast & Furious works Summary: He was dying down here a little piece at a time, and if it took too long to get him out, there wouldnât be a lot left of the guy he remembered in the mirror.

More Joy Day is BACK
What's More Joy Day? In short itâs this:
Every year since 2008, in the interest of spreading more joy, Iâve proposed that on a designated day in early January we each engage in one act, either online or physical space (or both!), which brings joy to another person, in the hopes that that person will spread that joy further, and exponentially onward.
This act can be as simple as leaving a comment on a fanwork to as complicated as planting a tree or flower in someoneâs honor and sharing a photo of it and why you chose that person. If you want the longer version (and more suggestions) you can check out this post from 2024 which provides both.
The 19th annual More Joy Day is on Thursday, January 8, 2026.
(Can you believe it's almost been twenty years?!)
Iâll have at least one more reminder before the day, so start thinking about how youâre going to spread some joy, because we need it now more than ever and I am NOT going to let the bastards bring us down entirely.
Here's Hanukkah story #2! This one's a Dragon Age: Inquisition story that's in the same universe as my stories The End of the Journey and Suspicious Minds, but I think can stand on its own.
Entrapment (5230 words) Chapters: 1/1 Fandom:Â Dragon Age: Inquisition Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Female Lavellan/Solas (Dragon Age), The Iron Bull/Dorian Pavus Characters: Solas (Dragon Age), Female Lavellan (Dragon Age), Dorian Pavus, The Iron Bull (Dragon Age), Vivienne (Dragon Age), Cole (Dragon Age) Additional Tags: Rite of Tranquility (Dragon Age), Consent Issues Summary:
âWhere did you come from?â Dorian demanded.
âHe was so loud,â Cole said, blinking at him with all that disingenuous blue. âSheâs taken, hurt, hurting, and I have to bear it: holding a debt so large my life and soul canât lift it, so I have to give my heart and wholeness, too. But theyâre going to cut her off, let the magic all run out and leave the hollow shell to haunt me, and I have to bear that too, but itâs too high a price; I have to go to her.â He shrugged. âSo I came to help him.â
âLetâs keep going,â Bull said.
Title: Common Knowledge Writer: @astolat Reader: @opalsong Fandom: Game of Thrones Relationships: Robb/Jaime Rating: Explicit Length: 47:08 Size: 32.6MB Music: For the Realm by Ramin Djawadi Cover: Opalsong Summary: It had never occurred to Jaime once, in the three solid months heâd spent in the pen, that Robb Stark could make his imprisonment worse by giving him a bath, a warm bed, and some decent food to eat.

Kinktober 2025 (prompt list): Day 15 - Semi-Public Sex
Thanks to Paraka for hosting and to astolat for having blanket permission!!
I haven't been posting fic lately because I'm really wrapped up in a massive multi-volume pro project and also another very different kind of sekrit project (with her and her and her đ). But that makes me a bit sad--I want to come to the potluck, even if I immediately conk out on the pile of coats in the back room. So for Hanukkah this year, I've dug through my fic folders and turned up a bunch of stories that were close enough to done that I could polish them off, and I'll be posting one for each night. Bringing them into the light!
(I was going to start posting yesterday night but then I got sick and spent the weekend asleep on the couch instead. But it's still the first DAY of Hanukkah so it totally counts as on time? ;_;)
These are all quite short except the very last one. So I offer them just as little gifts, to hopefully bring a bit of light into your season and my own, no matter the dark outside. Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate. <3
This first one's a short coda that comes right after 2014's Breaking News--if you haven't read that one, recently enough to remember what happens, you'll want to read it first as this will make very little sense without the backstory.
Press Gang (3786 words) by astolat Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Captain America (Chris Evans Movies) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson, Bucky/Tony/Pepper, Pepper Potts/Tony Stark, James "Bucky" Barnes & Steve Rogers Characters: James "Bucky" Barnes, Tony Stark, Sam Wilson (Marvel), Steve Rogers, Pepper Potts, Peter Parker Series: Part 3 of Maybe Home Is Somewhere I'm Going, Part 17 of Captain America works Summary:
Bucky didnât open his eyes: there was no imminent threat. The device on the other side of the bed was just chiming a wake-up call at Stark, who started complaining at Jarvis; shortly after that, Potts started complaining at Stark. âOh my God,â she groaned. âTony, I donât believe you. How could you talk me into this? You know what happens when I drink too much champagne!â
âWhen the Nightâs King rides the King in the North must answer. The King in the North⌠whose name is Stark.â

Book 1 of Naomi Novik's beloved 'The Scholomance' trilogy comes to Wraithmarked as an illustrated deluxe hardcover! And in FULL-color!
Sharing this over here for those of you for whom this will be relevant to your interests! Wraithmarked Books is doing a Kickstarter to raise funds for an incredibly fancy deluxe edition of A Deadly Education. I know it's very pricey, sorry! ;_; But even if you can't pledge, everyone can enjoy the fantastic art on view in the KS page!
Signal-boosting much appreciated. <3
A Man of Honor by @astolat
I continue in my quest to bind all of Astolatâs fic in the fandoms I read! This is another GOT fic, but a Regency Romance AU.
The cloth jointed endpapers and cover inset are hot foiled, but the spine text and my logo are HTV because it turns out this Japanese book cloth does not take foiling well! I modeled the title page after the 1697 edition of Drydenâs translation of Virgil (yes, Iâm that kind of nerd), hand painted the red because I still donât have a color printer, and I used IM Fell as my primary font. The images of swords and pistols come from public domain photos of appropriate weaponry that I digitally traced and edited. Endbands are a simple bead on front with silk.
As always, Astolat, if you would like a copy let me know!
aaaa so beautiful *___*
