Summary
"Sirius Black is like drinking whiskey; you don’t want to do it, but you love the way it feels when it goes down."
Or: After her four-year relationship goes spectacularly up in flames, Hermione Granger finds herself living in Grimmauld Place with her best friend, Harry, and his infuriatingly attractive godfather.
There’s also the tiny, inconvenient detail that she may or may not have dragged Sirius Black back from beyond the Veil using ancient magic she definitely wasn’t supposed to touch.
Hermione prefers not to think about that part.
Sirius, on the other hand, makes it his personal mission to make sure she does.- Language:

Summary
Gift for Scorching Summer Fest 2019.
Prompt: "Hermione Granger was simply taking a walk on what she thought was a lonely isolated beach. Nothing like a sea breeze and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks and sand to refresh the mind and soul. But her respite comes screeching to a halt when she happens upon an equally isolated, contemplative Lucius Malfoy staring off into the sea. He hasn't seen her yet... she can choose to slip away. Or she can act on the brash and intense, nonsensical whim that's popped up in her thoughts. Tensions between them have improved over the few short years since the war... but what Hermione wants to happen there hidden among the rocks, dunes, and waves, has the potential to stir up so much more than either of them anticipated."

Summary
Magic often felt like nothing, but when called into the foreground, it felt like energy coursing along the meridians of the body. And when Theo and Lyra touched, their magic came alive, flowing strong within them, searching, searching—desperate, as if it was afraid the spark would go out—
Theo and Lyra spend time together in secret, both knowing they should tell her parents soon. What are the consequences of keeping something like this to themselves? Especially when fate wants to intervene?
