    Summary

    "Girls are saying Beatrix is inconsolable." Kiko told them, scampering into the Purity Common Room with an armful of clean, but still damp, stockings and stays.
    "Some of it is okay," said Agatha, turning her fingerglow on them to try and dry them. "Just need a few washes and an iron, maybe. Can't she just write home to replace it all, anyway–?"
    She stopped, wary at the way the chatter had dropped, and the emphatic, wide eyed, stares the other girls were giving her.
    "...what?"
    ---
    set during sophie's attacks on good in book 1. one such attack is more revealing about beatrix's character than necessarily expected, or desired.

    Summary

    Valerie calls her an hour later.

    “Sally, what the hell?”

    “That bad, huh?”

    “Bad? Sally, it’s gold. I went from squirming in my seat to crying genuine tears. And that twist, making him a Greek god, it’s exactly what we’re looking for right now. How soon can you get me the next chapter?”

    ***

    In which Sally Jackson realizes by the time the new baby is eighteen, a semester of college will cost an arm and a leg. And those Fifty Shades of Grey books sure did make a lot of money.

    Summary

    Let’s talk about a Susan who never moved on, who buried her family in English soil and spent the rest of her life trying to find her way home. She did not believe lions were kind, but she always remembered a bow in her schoolgirl hands.

    She looked in every old wardrobe she came across. It was casual, everyday– the first day in a new lecture hall, she checked the back of the coat closet. Friends had her over for Christmas dinner and she excused herself to go the bathroom, checked every cabinet and closet, and then headed back in for pudding. She went home with a cute boy she met in a smoky little pub and she checked his wardrobe before she headed home the next morning, heels in hand.

    She also went to college, got a political science degree she had to fight for. She got a byline in the local paper, a few ladies’ magazines, then a larger regional publication.

    She had mimosa brunches with friends. She read detective novels, never touched fantasy, and finally one day she stepped through an old stone archway barely thinking about it and–-

    She was standing in a treeless plain, all yellow grass and blue blue skies.

    Summary

    Ron maybe accidentally-on-purpose becomes a dark wizard, and everything changes.

    (a canon rewrite, with a bit of a twist)
    (also this is not a 'Ron is Evil, actually' fic so if that's what you're expecting, maybe give this a skip)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Wonderful. I love how everybody gets a little more character than they do in the books. Ginny gets to be reckless, the other Gryffindors get to have thoughts and feelings and opinions, and Malfoy appears to have a burgeoning frenemies relationship with Ron. I had a great time reading this, and I can’t wait for more to be posted. <3
