The Twisted Path, Chapter 45: Turning the Tide
(HP)
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”

And may I say that the new chapter of Cross Purposes has a moment that I approve of and heartily endorse.

Stitches in Time (the Doctor Who/slightly modified As N Approaches Infinity crossover) continues, as Kisuke upgrades his phone, Nemu receives a text, and Sayaka conveys other information to Hitomi, in a chapter that could only be called Unfulfilling Prophecies:

I still mean to get around to reading that one of these days, dammit. In the meantime, Haze Grey (Taylor Hebert as a modernized-Alaska-ish shipgirl in a world with at least semi-competent authorities) got ch19 a few hours ago on FFn.

And we've got another Haze Grey, and a part for A Semblance of Hope. Well, on a usually safe assumption the latter isn't just some kind of update or teaser; I copied the link so this wouldn't be another singleton post but haven't read it yet.

Awakening, Chapter 8: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13467415/8/Awakening
Chapter image
Summary Wrote:After his name came out of the Goblet of Fire, Harry woke to a disturbing reality. The wizarding world only saw him as an expendable pawn, his carefree attitude towards studying left him struggling to survive, and he had never truly appreciated the one, constant companion at his side—Hermione Granger. It was high time for change. Chapter image:

The Twisted Path, Chapter 47: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13426875/47...isted-Path
Summary Wrote:When Minerva McGonagall discovers that Harry Potter's relatives intend to keep him from attending Hogwarts, she takes matters into her own hands. But when Harry comes to Diagon Alley one day early, it sets events into motion that end with him and his friend, Hermione Granger, sorted into Slytherin. Now the two of them must somehow tame the House of the Snakes

Hey, kids! What time is it?
From Aesir To Yggdrasil: A Norse Primer Wrote:Weregild: Archaic term for a fine made as legal reparations for an unlawful death at the hands of an offending party to their victim's family or clan. The precise value of the payment was based on the legal and social standing of the victim, with no division set between murder and manslaughter. A freeman was generally used as the base payment amount, with 200 shillings being the value assigned in 8th century Anglo-Saxon law, and this amount then modified appropriately according to the local mores—for example, among the Alamanni, the weregeld for women was twice that of an equal-status man, while among the Saxons, it was half. An envoy from Charlemagne was worth three times his normal value if killed while in active service to the king, and a priest was worth an extra hundred shillings if he was killed during the reading of Mass—presumably, both of these circumstances occurred enough to warrant the variance in the legal codes.
While these payments seem to be preposterous to a more modern outlook, it is important to note that, in their era, which lacked centralized law enforcement and more modern legal punishments, weregilds functioned as a system that allowed for deescalation of tensions, as opposed to the other option for restitution that was available: the victim's family going out and killing the killer, which would spark a cycle of revenge that would spiral into vendettas and feuds.
That's right, it's A Thing of Vikings time! Fishwings arrives in Vedrarfjord with deliveries of varying degrees of specialness, and Cami arrives on Berk for the run-up to her wedding. In Constantinople, Sigurd and Sophie get to steal a moment. Back on Berk, Toiréasa makes plans, then gets caught up in Heather's plans. Returning to Constantinople, Igna gets some information from, and about, Gudmund. And on Berk once more, Wulfhild has a reunion with her brother; Stoick receives the Glenfinnan weregild from Dagur; and, finally, Cami becomes part of Heather's plan to collect a price of her own from the deranged one...
