Summary:
Hundreds of Wyldfae in Chicago work for Harry in an emergency and many are sworn to his home guard. The Wyldfae decide to Choose, not for Summer or Winter, but for Harry and make him Wyldfae King. Harry receives Power along with the status and meets Baron Marcone, Mab and Titania on even footing for the first time. What does this meeting look like?

Review:
As the official subtitle says, this is the story of how Harry Dresden accidentally becomes king of the Wyldfae. It starts with little things, with Toot-toot and his buddies, with Harry helping out random sprites and other fae creatures, and turns into something completely unexpected. The best part is that Harry is totally oblivious to the weirdness, until his side activities have greater and greater affects on Chicago and the magical world.

This is one of my go-to happy fics. It happily patches up some sad developments in canon, skirts some others and is such good fun.

"I thought they were just a bunch of pizza-eating freeloaders. Now I'm... they call me Lord and help me out on the job and check this out," I went over to the windowbox and placed my hand on a spare bit of soil. "Floris, floris auctus." I lifted my hand and a bottle blue forget-me-not pushed out of the dirt as we watched. I pointed at it. "I could not do that a month ago."
