In the Raptor's Claws: Earth, Romulus, and the War that Birthed the Federation (ST) Chapter 14 -- The Eve of Galorndon Core: Establishing the Distant Blockade of the High Space Fleet.

Starfleet won this war as much in London as it did at Galorndon Core. It was the work of untold millions of hands. Even so, it was impossible to ignore how much of our effort would depend on Admiral Archer, who could lose it all in an hour if he was not careful. – Priyanka Patel, United Earth Prime Minister

And in the same timeframe, First Times Lantern Granger: Her First Year (HP/DC), in addition to getting a name-change, posted its concluding chapter, First Anniversary!

It’s a special holiday, one perfect for Britain’s premier superhero to shine her brightest lights. Expect best friends, besties, former friends who’re once again best friends, school friends, professional friends, and many more, as we celebrate Hermione’s first year as Green Lantern in the final chapter of this story!
“C’mon, Wally. Time to not blow up Parliament.”

And that concludes the old business. On to new business, like Letters to the Lantern! Chapter 80: Of Contracts and (RPG) Classes.

Hermione’s faced with her greatest foe – legal documents. Also, with a side of game mechanics. Luckily, she’s brought in expert assistance, as a certain Funky Flashman is involved.

And Threads of Destiny (the other OEX meat) 413-Taming Winter 2.

A shard of ice cut through the air and shattered against one of Hanyi's fans. It was the first of many, pelting the hill. Each one carried mockery and derision.

“City-thing, man-thing, soggy witch, these hills already sing, a beauty greater than thy own!”

Up in the clouds, Ling Qi saw the ripple of blue fabric, hands on hips, wings of ice, and an inhuman face, featureless but for eyes of solid blue radiance, descending from the higher peaks in response to her sister’s song. There was more to this one, a core of frozen power rather than a diffuse ball of snow.

Hanyi's song didn’t cease, but her eyes narrowed to white slits of affront.

Ling Qi wouldn't call the line that rang out next discordant, but…

“O, who approaches? Who stands before the maiden? Feckless flake, be on your knees!”

A screech, yes, like nails on glass or the scream of a high wind. There was no way to describe what happened next in elegant terms.

Little faeries scattered and giggled madly, blown end over end by the wind. Ling Qi's hair whipped out behind her, a ragged, fluttering black banner as she raised a hand to shield her eyes from the backwash…

… Of Hanyi's heel striking the ice faerie dead across its featureless face, a picture perfect flying kick.

Threads of Destiny (the other xianxia meat) 414-Taming Winter 3.

"I like how it feels around here." Hanyi’s pale eyes sparkled as she looked up at the cloud-wreathed peaks ahead. They stood on the lowest slope, the foot of the mountain. They had gathered quite a train of lesser faeries, a glittering, whirling constellation of icy lights winking among the clouds.

"The air is very clear," Ling Qi mused. It tasted crisp on her tongue and soothed her still burnt lungs, circulating a comforting chill through her charred organs and meridians. "We didn't discover this when we were surveying."

"I think it isn't always like this." Hanyi planted her chin on her fist. "Yeah, this isn't like Momma's house at all."

"A wandering site. Interesting." Ling Qi would need to report this to Renxiang and speak to the Meng geomancer they were promised soon. "No use just standing here. Let’s climb, Little Sister, and see who tries to bar our way."

"Oh, I can't wait!" Hanyi tossed her hair, glaring up at the winking lights overhead. "You all better watch closely!"

Ling Qi gave Hanyi's hand a squeeze and lifted her skirt hem in the other, and together, they began the long, rocky climb.

They climbed toward the clouds, and the clouds came down to meet them.
