Narrator's POV
On December 25, 56 days later, Hadrian and Tom woke up a a snowy morning.
Though there was a light snowfall outside, Hadrian was awoken by soft tapping at the window.
The Queen carefully unwrapped himself out of Tom's arms, without waking the older man up, grabbed the nearest clothing item —which was Tom's shirt— and put it on.
Since Tom was taller and broader than him, it dropped to his mid-thighs, and he opened the window.
The cold Winter breeze caused him to shiver, but the six owls into the room.
Each owl had had a letter and package tied to its leg, which he quickly untied, Hadrian gave them all treats and they flew away.
He quickly opened the first letter letter and box.

"Dear Puppy,
Remus and I are really enjoying our time on this island —that I can't seem to remember the name of for the life of me— and we wanted to to wish you a Happy Yule and congrats on getting hitched —though we're a little late, sorry.
Anyways, we were going around the island the other day and saw these things and we immediately thought of you —well I did, Remus didn't agree with me on the second part, I argued and said that you two lovebirds might as well spice things up.
I know you and the Dark Lord have probably been going at it like rabbits —I know Remus and I did— and enjoying the refreshing taste of a Pina Colada and some island bliss would be nice to add to it.
Remus wants me to remind you to drink responsibly.
Lots of Love,
Sirius and Remus."
Hadrian opened the box and found an object wrapped in cloth, he unwrapped it and found a bottle labeled "Pina Colada Flavored Vodka".
Underneath that, he found a coconut bra and grass skirt.
"Morning, love," Tom yawned, sitting up "whatcha got there?"
"Sirius' idea of us 'spicing things up'." Hadrian replied, placing the objects back into the box
"I'm going to go shower, do you wish to join me, darling?" Tom asked, walking into the bathroom
"No." Hadrian answered, beginning to open the next letter
"I also have to say that you look sexy in my shirt, sweetheart." Tom complimented, closing the door
"Dear Beloved Brother and Queen,
We are enjoying traveling around to every beach in the world —Rowan has gotten a sunburn twice already and both Hermione and Verity are addicted to anything with coconut in it— and we found things things and thought of you.
Rowan got you charm bracelet that had room for many charms, but he has given you two to start with: the one that is shaped like a sun will protect you from getting blinded by light and the one shaped like a wave will prevent you from drowning.

Verity has gotten you Pink Himalayan Salt Scrub, that you use in the bath to clear you skin and make it soft.
Barty has gotten you a shell that allows you to hear the ocean from wherever you are.
Theo has gotten you a roll of cloth that can be used as a dress, shawl, blanket, or rug that has moving patterns of dolphins jumping in and out of the ocean waves.
And Hermione has gotten you a book about spells, animals, creatures, and anything else magical you'd ever want to about beaches, oceans, or water.
We once again ask you not to send us anything, this vacation is enough.
With lots of love and adoration,
Hermione, Verity, Rowan, Theo, and Barty."
Hadrian found each of the described objects in the box, and contemplated joining Tom in the bath to try out the salt scrub, but decided against it.
He also put on the charm bracelet and looked at it: it was a simple silver band, but the charms were beautiful.
"Dear Hadrian,
Dada and I have enjoyed our traveling thus far, did you know that the muggle museum called the Louvre has a section just for wizards?
They have a painting called 'The Founders' there that has Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw, Helga Hufflepuff, and Godric Gryffindor on it —we included a photo of it for you.
Anyways, we heard that Rowan had gotten you a charm bracelet, we sent you one as well, this charm will grow warm every time someone lies to you.
We also sent you one that looks like my crescent moon necklace that will change to track the phases of the moon.
With love,
The Lovegoods."
Hadrian found the photo of the painting and it was beautiful.
He also found both charms, the first one was a purple ball in a silver cage and the other did look like Luna's necklace.
"Dear my Queen,
My parents, uncle, and I have very much enjoyed our vacation, but we are are anxious to return and serve.
For Yule, we have gotten you some Devil's Snare that is tameable that you can use in torture or security.
We also heard that your brother had gotten you a charm bracelet that would protect you, so we got you a charm as well.
It is shaped like a raven that will allow you to disappear into the shadows for protection or to cause fear in your enemies, the crystal attached allows you to sense if anyone has harmful thoughts towards you.
Forever loyal,
The LeStranges."
He found the jar of Devil's Snare as well as the charm.
"Dear our Royal Friend,
Happy Yule, we wish we could bring our gifts for you in person, but mum and dad are keeping an annoyingly close eye on us since Ginny and Ron died, Sirius and Remus revealed their true loyalty, and Lily and James were put in prison.
We got to say that your plan is working brilliantly and Dumbleshit and the Order of the Charred Chicken doesn't suspect anything.
Good idea placing Lucius Malfoy as Minister.
Anyways, our gift to you is a charm you can add on the bracelet your brother got you, it will protect you from jinxes.
Waiting for your call,
Percy, William, Fleur, Charlie, Fred, and George."
Hadrian opened the small box, found the charm and connected with the others on the bracelet.
***
That evening, Hadrian, dressed in a lacy topped black dress, and Tom, in a black suit, —or rather Regina and Brexton— apparated to Malfoy Manor for the Yule Ball.
The ball was extremely simple to the Samhain ball, save the food.
And Draco gave Hadrian his Yule present, a charm that would protect him from love potions and compulsion charms.
Hadrian smiled as the charms twinkled together, he was protected, now they just need to wait another two years to strike back...

Starchild
“It’s life’s illusions I recall. I really don’t know life at all.” from the song, Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell Starchild is an adventure novel set within an understanding of reality that is rooted in Eastern spiritual traditions.It takes as its starting point experiments in remote viewing that were genuinely undertaken by the American military in the nineteen-nineties under the name of the Stargate Project. It then imagines how a more advanced attempt to weaponise the capabilities of consciousness might have been developed in the present day.The story then explores how Ultimate Reality might respond to such a threat.Deep, elemental forces thus bring together Samantha Martin and Sahadeva Varma, old colleagues from the Stargate Project, to avert the apocalyptic consequences of this military attempt to weaponise consciousness. This fast-paced story spans genres including romance, action, adventure, science fiction and more. Although this story is based on concepts drawn from established spiritual traditions, these have sometimes been extrapolated to the point of very extreme speculation for the needs of an adventure story.Much of the underlying philosophy, however, as explained in the dharma talks given by Samantha Martin, is paraphrased from the guidance of respected spiritual teachers. Scheduling: Starchild is a previously unpublished novel of one hundred thousand words which was serialised in weekly instalments over twenty-five weeks from 15th November 2021 to the 29th April 2022. Each instalment contains five chapters – an average of approximately four thousand words in each instalment.
