Bookmarker's Notes
Melancholic, dramatic, very much derivative from the source material. Premise is built on a Colin/Draco situationship from their Hogwarts years. Set after the war---Harry amicably broke up with Ginny, got together with Colin. Draco and Astoria are married. Scorpius ends up taking weekly photography lessons with Colin as his teacher.
Alternating PoVs, including Colin and Harry, then later Bill and Dennis. Colin, Harry, and Draco are unwell, but Harry is particularly stressed and depressed. Harry's relationship with Colin teeters over from the weight of it all. Someone dies, a trial occurs, and a truth is unveiled.
Then the aftermath: discussions over demons, completing the Bill subplot, then PoV's from Dennis and Draco.
-
Final Note: Story with a lot of care put into it. Certainly wasn't what I expected but it was interesting.
-
Other scattered details are entailed as follows, but with more explicit spoilers:
Astoria is a... form of psychologist in this one? Harry Potter is framed in a negative light, with nuance, so it seems. Major death occurs. Discussions of abusive relationships within one of the major pairings. Other topics of choice include therapy and PTSD, insanity, demons, murder, psyche ward. There's an unreliable narrator.

Bookmarker's Notes
A nonlinear narrative following Charlie Weasley's PoV. He's been relegated to management after the loss of his arm. And Draco's a new hire. A story set in Romania.
Charlie's a bit of a ruminator in this one. Draco has his problems. They get by, in the end.

Summary
Oliver and Marcus are two halves of a very confusing whole; twisted and bent, built on frustration and love in equal parts. When they both end up back at Hogwarts, in the middle of a war, there is a chance for them to pick up where they left off, to fix what was broken over Quidditch and cold nights. A chance to find the way back home.

Bookmarker's Notes
Oliver and Marcus were exes who got together during school years, broke up, then had a painful second encounter during wartime. Forced together as Quidditch coaches, living together, they balance playing spy with the rise of their old feelings.
It's a messy, dramatic relationship. A love turned rotten by external factors.

Summary
Naruto doesn’t know much about love. If he were someone else, someone *neat*, then maybe love would be an emotion more easily categorized - the kind of thing that could be sectioned off, carted around like so much paperwork, packed into color-coordinated boxes and appropriately labeled. But he’s not, and like hell he wants to be, so instead it’s all a mad scramble of emotion that makes his head hurt whenever he tries to sort it through.
He’s not stupid, though - he knows love from hate from comradery or any one of those things. It’s just never occurred to him that there’d be different kinds of love, or that he’d ever feel any love for anybody (except maybe Iruka-sensei, or Sakura-chan), or that these funny fuzzy feelings could be so /misleading/.
If he knew more, it wouldn’t be as confusing as it is. But he doesn’t know more, which he chalks up to ignorance on his part. He tells himself he’ll ask Sakura about it next chance he gets.

Bookmarker's Notes
I'm a big fan of stream-of-consciousness prose. The text feels so dynamic and fun, I love it. Fight scenes are enjoyable to read; the sex scenes are a nice prose. Whole fic is confined to Naruto's limited PoV, and yet it retains an omniscient presence---you get a decently executed internal monologue, settled within an almost melancholic depiction of his relationship with Sasuke.
Fighting, sex, and love.
No summary, so I copy & pasted the first three paragraphs.

Summary
Kim Dokja slaps his hands over Yoo Joonghyuk’s mouth without really thinking.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he says frantically.
He feels Yoo Joonghyuk’s lips curve into a frown under his palm, ticklish and hot against that sensitive skin. He ekes out an odd sound and jerks back, yelping again when the back of his head collides with the wall.
Yoo Joonghyuk’s expression turns more bewildered than reprimanding. “What is with you?”
The Fourth Wall comes down. Kim Dokja realizes he’s been relying on it more than he thought.

Inasa stares down at his phone, even though he’s not supposed to have it out, memorizing the picture, the way Shouto’s body fits against his own, head tucked under Inasa’s chin. He had to stand on the tips of his toes to get properly into the frame. It was cute.
“Shouto is so small,” he says distractedly, vaguely awed.
“Are you into that?” Camie asks from across the table.

“That is the saddest excuse for gossip on the planet earth,” Ashido says. “Everyone’s had a crush on Kirishima, even Todoroki.”
There’s a strangely sharp silence as all heads swivel to look at Shouto. He doesn’t know what to say. Feeling strangely betrayed, he settles coldly on, “Thanks, Ashido.”
