    Summary

    It was Harry, more than any of her other friends, with whom she felt at home. Harry made her feel safe and strong, and though he’d never said it in so many words, she knew he felt the same. There was almost nothing she couldn’t tell him. Their friendship, so firmly rooted in honesty and trust, had always been intense.

    But the intensity of those feelings made it difficult for her to keep her attraction to Harry carefully locked away in its mental box.

    In moments like this, when she was sitting close enough to see the glint in his eyes as he told a joke and smell the lingering scent of cologne on his shirt, those feelings crept out of their tightly closed box and swam through her brain.

    What would it be like to gently touch the stubble on his jaw? To kiss his wine stained lips? To be held in his strong arms?

    Hermione could imagine nothing better. Well, almost nothing.

    Hermione's long standing desire for her best friend finally finds its way out of the box

    Summary

    Set during Half-Blood Prince, this story follows Harry and Hermione as they navigate the blurring line between friendship and the messy, undeniable pull of something deeper.

    When Ron finds comfort in Lavender and Ginny keeps running back to Dean, Harry and Hermione are left to manage their own heartbreaks. Late-night talks and stolen glances slowly unravel the truth they’ve both been too afraid to admit: sometimes, what we think we deserve and what we actually do deserve are vastly dissimilar.

    Summary

    While chasing down students out of bed, Professor Hermione Granger discovers the Mirror of Erised is still at Hogwarts. Harry might have told her all about it when they were kids, but knowing what the Mirror does is not the same as being ready to look into it. Through a mirror, darkly, it shows her every life she might have lived instead, and the one desire she has taught herself not to name.
    Written for the Harmony Out Of The Ordinary Fest 2026.

    Summary

    Neither Sophie nor Howl do well with change. Luckily, Sophie has a plan. Sort of book verse, sort of movie verse.
