Summary
Two Hogwarts Houses, both alike in dignity
In fair Scotland, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where magic blood makes magic hands unclean.The strife of war-torn star-cross'd lovers
Is now the traffic of our AO3 page;
The which, if you with patient eyes attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. -

Summary
“Going to hit me, Granger?”
She huffed and pulled away, straightening up and brushing her shaking hand down the front of her white robes.
“Wouldn’t be the first time.”
Granger ignored him and walked back to her desk, a resolute expression on her face.
“What if I say please?”

DRACO MALFOY IS DIRECTIONLESS, unless crashing and burning qualifies as moving in a direction. He’s perfectly content to piss away his time in pubs and dark alleys until his debauchery becomes too public. Wizengamot-mandated therapy is the last stop before Azkaban. If imbibing is off the table, terrorising his Healer might be the next best thing.
HERMIONE GRANGER IS NO LONGER AT THE TOP OF HER CLASS, and truth be told, it rankles. Proving the validity of her experimental research will finally allow her to move forward. And she’ll be damned if she lets a certain blond-haired ponce hold her back from the success of this study.
This is a story of redemption and forgiveness, with a good deal of pining, prose, and wanking along the way.

[art] want is a weed by baitscribble (baitswitch) for goldrushrenegade
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
Gods, how she wishes she was a girl instead of a cat. That he was affectionate towards her like this while knowing it was her, was affectionate like this because it was her. She wants more than him holding her hand procedurally to cast a healing charm. More than glimpses of his naked body as he gets dressed.
To be a girl, lying next to him while he read. The want is rooted in her chest, perhaps has been for a long time now, and is flaring now under the direct heat of his touch. Like a weed that flourishes despite only catching glimpses of sunshine; his eyes lighting up at the sight of her, soft touches of affection, murmured words for just the two of them—there you are, sweetheart.
At first, his attention was enough. But no matter how much sunshine she gets, she only wants him more; a greedy, invasive ivy, climbing and twisting around him until they’re inextricably bound. The fruit it bears is poisonous, of course.
From a girl; a cat; a tragedy, ch. 16: want is a weed, by goldrushrenegade

Summary
The rest of us are forbidden the use of wands, conduits of any kind. The message is clear. You are not here because you are special. You are here so we can keep an eye on you.
Then he swoops off to do whatever it is that men with power do. Before my first Welcome Ceremony, I had only ever seen one image of Dumbledore: a photo of him standing solemnly next to Gellert Grindelwald, Emperor of Magic. The two men looked directly at the camera, their tailored-suited chests facing each other. Their robes billowed impressively out behind them.
When I saw him in person, I was struck by the amount of grey streaking his hair.

The First Healing Session by Escapemymind

Summary
Since the new ATLA movie decided to delete Zuko's lightning scar from existence and create a continuity error, I came up with a little headcanon that Katara has been spending extra time to heal the scar. It's a set-up for them to fuck, of course.

Summary
She looked at him, but looking, of course, wasn’t enough.
A kiss beneath the full moon, in the raging ocean, was not enough. Had she always, in some way, burned for him? Her enemy, her friend; the kind, golden flicker in the middle of the flame?
For once, the question had an easy answer. Yes—

Le Petit Mort, or: Potentially The Worst Weekend of Harry Potter's Life by Prill_and_Quill for Mr_YK_Potter
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
19 Jun 2026

Summary
Harry Potter has survived Voldemort, the Forbidden Forest, and seven years of Hermione Granger's study schedules. He did not anticipate that a routine Dark artefact retrieval and one catastrophically misread French idiom would prove his undoing. Ron Weasley, armed with one of Draco's books and absolutely no working knowledge of Romance languages, delivers the worst medical advice in the history of wizarding Britain and then leaves for the weekend. Hermione comes to take care of Harry. Harry attempts to not die. He does a terrible job of it. Hermione has no idea why.
A comedy of errors, a fidelity urn, and le petit mort — which, it turns out, means something rather different than Ron thought.
___
A fluffy little one shot dedicated to Mr_YK_Potter whose Harmony Out of the Ordinary fest has produced such terrific creativity from this little ship. This one came about as I was contemplating one of my all-time favorite Fuck-or-Die fics and I thought about how fun a Fuck AND Die fic could be.
___
Please note: no Weasleys were harmed in the making of this fic, though one was significantly embarrassed.
