    Summary

    Colin Creevey is used to being overlooked, underestimated. The "boy with the camera" who survived a war only to end up dodging rent notices in a cluttered Diagon Alley flat. That is, until his Muggle Lomo LC-A camera photographs a murder at a high-profile Quidditch charity match that the wizarding world is too magical to notice.

    20,000 Quidditch fans.
    1 murder.
    0 witnesses.
    Bad maths, that.

    But when that murder is dismissed by the Ministry as a tragic accident, Colin finds an unlikely ally in Oliver Wood—the Puddlemere Keeper who is far more than just a set of broad shoulders and a protective streak. And together, they'll dive into a world of illegal gambling, black-market gear, and ancient "Keeper’s Guards" that shouldn't exist.

    It’s a cozy mystery. It’s a slow-burn romance. And it’s a lesson in why you should never, ever underestimate a Creevey.

    Summary

    This is the official fic reading.

    Colin Creevey is used to being overlooked, underestimated. The "boy with the camera" who survived a war only to end up dodging rent notices in a cluttered Diagon Alley flat. That is, until his Muggle Lomo LC-A camera catches a murder that the wizarding world is too magical to notice.

    20,000 Quidditch fans. 1 murder. 0 witnesses. Bad maths, that.

    And when a high-profile murder at a Quidditch charity match is dismissed by the Aurors as a tragic accident, Colin finds an unlikely ally in Oliver Wood—the Puddlemere Keeper who is far more than just a set of broad shoulders and a protective streak.

    It’s a cozy mystery. It’s a slow-burn romance. And it’s a lesson in why you should never, ever underestimate a Creevey.

    Summary

    Albus Severus Potter has been in isolation for three hours and forty-seven minutes, which is a long time to maintain a rash.

    Scorpius's plan is colour-coded. Lily is in. The target is Harry Potter's old Firebolt, sitting in the trophy case behind a brass lock that looks insultingly ordinary. Teddy Lupin started the Sixth-Year Skip Day tradition. James Potter perfected it. Albus is next in line and would, frankly, prefer not to be — particularly given that his father is now teaching DADA and has fifteen years of Auror habits baked into his spine.

    A Ferris Bueller's Day Off pisstake, in which Scorpius is the schemer, Albus is the reluctant accomplice, and the day is not, strictly speaking, about the skip.

    Summary

    Months hunting the Æmberhand Collective's most infuriating operative, and Paladin Hollander finally has the rogue Ilya Rozanov exactly where he wants him: sword at his throat, back against the wall, nowhere left to run.

    Ilya looks annoyingly comfortable about this.

    Shane is starting to think that's a problem.

    Then Ilya smirks — and Shane realizes, a beat too late, that it's definitely a problem.

    And that he's has been looking in the wrong direction the entire time.

    Summary

    Colin Creevey has survived the Battle of Hogwarts, a career as London's least successful detective-photographer, and several near-death experiences in the past fortnight alone.
    But can he survive Christmas dinner when both grandmothers arrive at the same time?
    Featuring: weeping windows, aggressive lemon-zesting, Dennis tangled in fairy lights, Jerry Creevey's controversial Yorkshire puddings, star-crossed dairy terminology, and the strategic deployment of Switzerland as a diplomatic position.
    No murders. No mysteries. Just the Creevey family, a twenty-pound turkey, and the kind of chaos that makes facing down dark wizards seem like a relaxing holiday.

    Summary

    Armed with flowcharts, star maps, and an Extension-Charmed robe full of "evidence," Albus presents his elaborate theory about Geoff Creevey's supposed plot to steal Scorpius's heart through an impossibly convoluted scheme involving James. But when he overhears an argument between Geoff and his father, Albus discovers a different kind of family secret—one that hits closer to home than any conspiracy theory could.

    Summary

    Being in love with your best mate is complicated enough without him constantly doing things like fixing your tie, falling asleep on your shoulder, and generally being Scorpius Malfoy. When Albus finally works up the courage to say something, an unexpected new threat complicates everything.
