Summary
Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment.
///
Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.PLEASE DON'T POST MY FICS ON GOODREADS/STORYGRAPHS/ETC.

Summary
*mind the tags, there is talk of homophobia*
Sirius and Remus are forced to come to terms with the hostility of the Ministry towards same-sex couples. (Pushed back a few years to the early 1960s)“Bastards,” was all Remus could manage, though it held substantial water coming from him. Sirius’s lack of yelling was particularly concerning to him; even trivial things were usually grounds for revolution in Sirius’s eyes. He should have been marching in the street, storming into the Ministry. Instead he stood nearly limp, misty eyes fixed on the smoke rings as they floated from his lips.
“It’s cruel, Remus,” Sirius’s voice was shaky, threatening to break at any moment.

Summary
“So—what are you suggesting? Friends?” She says the word like it tastes bitter, and it does.
Dorcas’ hand tightens on hers. “A truce. We work together to keep our houses from each other’s throats for as long as it takes to finish the season.”
“And you think that could actually work?”
“We’ll make it work.” Dorcas leans closer, until she’s all Marlene can see. “I want the chance to beat you.”
—
Or, Marlene grows into who she is meant to be, which comes with a side of being disastrously attracted to her Quidditch rival, Dorcas Meadowes. But when the conflict between their houses spirals out of control, they're forced to work together, or else risk being kicked off their teams. What could go wrong?

Summary
It's too far out of her way and she's wasting so much money, but Lily can't help but return to the bookstore every weekend, where her passion for good literature has, perhaps, been unexpectedly reignited by the messy-haired, pun-making, rather handsome bloke who works there.
