On the advice of her therapist, Hermione Granger finally quits her desk position at the Ministry and finds a hobby all her own. She puts down paperwork and picks up potions, and her clients adore her home brews. She opens up her own shop and just as she’s found a new normal, her storefront (and flat) is sold out from underneath her by her retiring landlord. Hermione soon finds herself relying on an unexpected client— Draco Malfoy. Can she trust the Auror from her past? Can he trust her with a delicate situation? As rumors of a new magical terrorist swirl, old and new friends alike join forces to bring peace to a wizarding world that's just started to hope again.

Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.

Summary
James comes back with some red and green tinsel, sparkling under the dim light of the Luminary. He points to the top of the window, “This, my new ‘allergic to happiness’ friend, is going right there.”
“We’re not friends,” Regulus grumbles. James ignores him, snatching some fairy lights next and jumping onto the nearest chair, lifting the lights across the top window ledge, “Hey! You can’t just decorate my bakery!”
“And later,” the pest continues, “we’re going to get you a tree.”
It's the festive season, and Sirius and Regulus are struggling to keep their failing bakery afloat.
Enter James Potter, a Christmas enthusiast and Regulus's first crush, and his best friend Remus Lupin, an introverted novelist who turns to Sirius for inspiration for his next romance book.

Summary
“Can we talk?” Mike asks.
“I actually don't think we have anything to talk about,” Will needs to shut this down and he needs to shut it down, now.
He stands up, mindlessly rummaging through one of his boxes. Maybe Mike would catch the way too obvious hint that Will would rather do anything, but talk with him.
“Okay,” Mike slowly shuffles his way into Will's room.
Oh, Jesus, no.
“Let me rephrase that. We’re going to talk, Will.”
And with that, Mike shuts his door and locks it. Will could feel his eyes going wide, his heartbeat quickening. Okay, so Mike hadn't caught the hint. How the hell does he get out of this?

Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.

Summary
It’s been seven years since Will Byers vanished from Hawkins for the second time; seven years since he picked up his life, moved across the globe, and finally settled. He had found himself in a small town outside of Dublin with no desire to be anyplace else. He was happy. Ireland was great — beautiful sights, decent weather, and it was far. So, so far.
But when past feelings bubble from under the surface and start to poison his creative endeavors, he doesn’t think things could get any worse.
Seeing Mike Wheeler at his local grocery store quickly proves him wrong.
OR: Running away and the reunion of a lifetime.

Summary
Will’s eyes sting with tears, and his nose prickles with heat. He feels like he’s burning, like he’s on fire. But Mom’s right—he doesn’t have to be afraid. She knows, and she loves him, and she’s not leaving. All that’s left is the words. And he shouldn’t be scared of words. After all he’s been through, if what takes him down is the English alphabet, then the world has a really fucked up sense of humor.
He just needs to rip off the bandaid.

Alternatively: Five times Will Byers came out, and the one time someone came out to him.

Summary
Spending the summer in Hawkins had been wonderful - they’d moved back in the middle of June, integrating into their new home and re-familiarizing themselves with the town. Their friends had, of course, welcomed them with open arms, and the rest of the summer had been spent like it always had - hanging out around town, taking over Steve’s pool and abusing his summer job at the video store, sleepovers in Mike’s basement and afternoons at the arcade.
It had been wonderful, yet also overwhelming.
One thing he hadn’t missed in California, was the agony of being close to Mike.
The kicker of that, of course, is that there had been the agony of being away from Mike.
Will’s conclusion is that he’s just meant to suffer.
Are they ready to be swept off their feet?
