    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?

    actually life changing

    Summary

    A year ago, things changed for good.

    Remus once thought nothing would ever go back to normal and, in a way, nothing did. Even if they were speaking, even if he had come to terms with finding he could not be without his friend, now the awareness of the dependence unsettled him. "Everyone wants to keep Sirius Black close", he had to remind himself. "Everyone finds him fascinating".

    That's until the girls start acting differently. Then, old feelings arise and the wound starts bleeding once more.

    "Has he done it again?", becomes the question that haunts Remus' mind, unaware that what the girls have uncovered is a different type of secret, one that Remus does not quite comprehend yet. At least not for now.

    Summary

    “Sirius!”

    Sirius jumped, looking up from the letter in his hands and scowling when he saw Regulus standing next to his chair. “Reg,” he said distastefully. "I expect you know what this is all about, then?" He held up the howler. “Been dobbing on me to mummy, have you?"

    “No.” For once, Regulus wasn’t wearing the displeased sneer that he normally adopted any time he was forced to speak to Sirius. Instead he looked pale and frightened, and he glanced around anxiously before speaking again in a hushed voice. “I didn’t have anything to do with this. But you’re about to be in really big trouble, Sirius.”

    Sirius felt his annoyance fade, cold dread taking its place. “...What kind of trouble?”

    Regulus gulped. “... I tried to reason with Mum,” he whispered. “I tried to tell her to wait ‘till you got home to talk to you about it, but she’s just so livid-”

    “Regulus, what kind of trouble?” Sirius repeated, his rapidly-growing panic causing his voice to raise.

    "Over holiday break, they had Kreacher search your room.” Sirius froze, feeling all of the colour drain from his face. Oh, Godric, no.
