Summary
Summer, 1899. Albus Dumbledore is seventeen, brilliant, and trapped in Godric's Hollow with two siblings he resents and a future that died with his mother.
Then Gellert Grindelwald walks into his life.
Gellert sees him. Really sees him. Not the dutiful son or responsible brother, but the mind underneath, hungry and wanting and willing to question everything. What starts as intellectual sparring becomes something more dangerous, desire that doesn't apologize, ambition that refuses limits, a connection that feels like finally being understood.
But Aberforth is watching. Ariana is unraveling. And neither Albus nor Gellert can see past each other long enough to notice the summer burning down around them.
Told in dual POV, this is the story of that summer. The arguments and the wanting. The tea and the touch. The brilliance and the blindness. How two boys found each other and lost everything else.
Day by day, until the inevitable end.Grindelwald is a joy to write totally present, I hope you enjoy my interpretation of his first meeting with Albus!
I don’t support JKR and her bigoted views.

Towards a New Magical Ethics by Maeloc Wren (Flabberwink)

Summary
I've always struggled with the ethics of magic in Harry Potter: if Imperius violates consent, why doesn't Tarantallegra? If Cruciatus causes suffering, what about Rictusempra? Who better to draft a new ethical framework than Muggleborn Hermione Granger, Minister for Magic? This is the start of a magical 'Me Too' movement.
Having said that, a pure treatise on ethics wouldn't be much fun. Hermione's personal life is anything but clear, especially when a certain grey-eyed, blonde-haired Slytherin keeps blurring the lines she's trying to draw. Expect contradictions, complications, and someone who legislates consent while negotiating it in very different terms behind closed doors -

Summary
This is a one shot with the 1st person narrator OC Pat Earnshaw.
It's my first time writing for 13 and I really enjoyed it. It hints at Thasmin in a melancholy sort of way. I wanted to put our first Yorkshire Doctor in a Yorkshire pub and village and Yorkshire folklore like the Corpse Roads (they're real!). It's a little slice of folk-horror, elegy on grief and on a sense of belonging and home.

Alastor Moody and the Chamber of Secrets by Maeloc Wren (Flabberwink)

Summary
Updates on a Monday.
Hogwarts, 1942. The world beyond the castle walls is at war, but inside, another kind of darkness is taking root. Fear spreads as whispers of an ancient monster slither through the halls, Muggle-borns are attacked, and the castle itself seems to be watching.
Alastor Moody knows something is wrong. Students are vanishing. Friends are turning against each other. And at the centre of it all stands Tom Riddle—brilliant, untouchable, and always one step ahead.
As the tension rises, Moody must navigate a world where trust is a liability, love is a weakness, and history is written by those in power. But the real danger isn’t just the Chamber of Secrets—it’s the war being fought in the shadows, where memories can be stolen, truths can be rewritten, and the mind itself can be turned into a weapon.
Some names are meant to be remembered. Others are meant to be erased.
