    Summary

    Please note that this story is 100% fictional. Any resemblance to real people or events should be understood solely as sources of inspiration, and I make no claim whatsoever to depict reality. While the story takes its starting point in a real event, everything that follows is purely imagined and should only be viewed for what it is - a romantic fictional love story.
    ...

    During your first encounters with him as a newly appointed paralegal of his defense team, led by your mom, you could barely focus in his presence. It wasn’t just his face - the real gravity of him came from something deeper, an almost otherworldly presence, a quiet force that seemed to radiate from within.

    Now, sitting next to him and your family ready to board a jet, you felt your stomach flutter. A summer in Italy, long days at the beach and drinking endless glasses of wine, together with quite possibly the most breathtaking man you had ever laid eyes on? Well… you couldn't complain.

    "Luigi, are you coming?”

    He turned away from the window at the sound of his name, a smile spreading across his face. Wide, bright, and brimming with that unmistakable spark of excitement.

    "Can’t wait," he grinned, beaming from ear to ear.

    Summary

    He’s supposed to want the win more than anything.

    And he does.

    This year has to be different—no more almosts, no more excuses. 2025 is meant to be his.

    But every time he looks across the garage, Oscar’s there.

    Too quick, too steady, too close.

    The kind of rival he can’t block out, no matter how hard he tries.

    Or: the one where Lando realises he’s losing to Oscar on and off track.

    Summary

    While running from the law in Cyrodiil, a petty crook crashes head-on into an unexpected destiny. This could be her chance at a new life, so long as her secretive nature, thirst for gold, and bleeding heart don't get her killed, first.

    An in-character journal of my heavily-modded Skyrim playthrough, with lots of narrative extras like character connections, ships, backstories and such to make it more interesting and not just a glorified quest log. Obviously, since it's a play-through, it's very spoilery if you haven't played the game.
    It updates in roughly 5K-word chapters when I get enough time to play.

    Summary

    (THIS IS AN ENTIRE REWRITE OF THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE, AND THE SECOND PART IS A REWRITE OF THE DEATHLY HOLLOWS.)

    He was barely a man, already drowning in a legacy he didn’t choose.
    She was a girl on the right side of the war until she wasn’t.

    No one knew about Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy.
    Not during sixth year. Not when the snogging started in the dark.
    Not when secrets passed between them like lifelines.
    Not even when their hidden bond lit the match that helped ignite the war.

    She didn’t mean to start it.
    He didn’t think he’d survive it.

    But love was never part of the plan.
    And war doesn’t care who you kiss in secret.

    Summary

    He supposes he should have known better. Five. Five tiny slips in hundreds and somehow one gloved hand found his.

    “Peeta Mellark,” Effie’s voice is loud and slightly frazzled, her pink wig askew.

    Katniss’s desperate screams for her sister were still ringing in his ears and it took a couple of seconds for him to realise why all the air had left his lungs.

    Mellark men don’t have good luck and he might be the unluckiest.

    This is the direct sequel to The Ones We Grow Beside - if you haven't read that first, I recommend starting there!

    This is the continuation of Eleanor's story - a girl born into legacy, caught between loyalty and defiance. With the safety of childhood behind her, Hogwarts becomes a place of sharpened lines: friendship and betrayal, laughter and heartbreak, love and loss. The Marauders are still her family, the girls still her anchor, but the shadows pressing closer will test them all in ways they never imagined.

    (Slowburn James x OC + Wolfstar + Dorlene | canon compliant-ish)

    Note: This book will contain mature themes that will be marked when present!

    Summary

    Hogwarts has reopened its doors, determined to heal the scars of war. To foster unity, Hermione Granger is named Head Girl. Her counterpart? None other than Draco Malfoy.

    She braces herself for icy silences and simmering resentment. What she doesn’t expect is how quickly everything starts to go wrong.

    Hermione begins waking up with strange bite marks on her neck… and the slow, terrifying sense that her magic is unraveling.

    Students begin collapsing in the corridors, pale and dazed, with no memory of what happened. Even the castle feels different - off-kilter and watchful.

    Determined to uncover the truth, Hermione throws herself into the mystery. But the only person who seems to notice the same things she does - the only one who might understand what’s happening - is the last person she wants to trust.
    Draco Malfoy is not the boy she remembers from before the war.

    And something else at Hogwarts has changed, too. Something ancient. Something hungry.

    Summary

    “What’s up?” Daniel started.

    Johnny had no idea how to go about this. He hadn’t really thought about, he just knew he was going to jump out of his skin if he stayed silent. Plus he already knew Daniel’s schedule like his own, which wasn’t weird at all.

    “I wanted to apologise. For the tournament. I was a total dick and completely out of line. So yeah. I’m sorry.” He didn’t look up once, and his own voice sounded strange in his ears. He could smell Daniel’s emotions changing until it landed on something passive that he didn’t recognise. He moved to open the car door and escape from the interaction he was starting to regret, but was interrupted.

    “I forgive you man.”

    Oh boy.

    Let's see if I finish this one.

    Summary

    Next time, Aki told Makima. Next time, he wanted to tell Angel. I would do that next time. We can do it next time. Would there ever be a next time? Would there ever be a tomorrow, even?

    It’s such an impossible, stupid thing, to hope for a future that neither of them can have. That doesn't stop either of them from wanting it anyway, even if it takes long enough for them to admit it.

    Summary

    He’s just convinced himself of this when the van door swings open with a click, and all his thoughts fall out of his head.

    She’s wearing this gorgeous swishing ballroom dress, all gold and glitter like she captured her own beam of sunlight. Her ears are cleverly tucked into a flower crown that gleams even more brilliantly than her dress. There’s sequins glittering across her skirt, and layers of tulle let the gown twirl like a princess.

    Carrots, you are killing me.

    Summary

    Jinshi would never pretend that he knew how the heavens and the earth moved to get him here, in this exact moment, but he did know of a certain game of go which lead him to, eventually, stand on the steps of the most prominent brothel in the capital’s red light district. For business, of course.
