Summary
Daily updates throughout October 2025 based on HP Spicetober prompts. Short chapters, more introspective than plot driven.
⋆☾⋆
Can't make it down a single hall without seeing him, flailing about with too many things in his bag. Why does he carry it when he has an office? A classroom? One of life's mysteries. Draco has to clench his teeth not to call him a bumbling idiot. A prerequisite to being a Potions master, he thinks. Poor attitude, sour disposition. Or perhaps just a long history fraught with trauma.
⋆☾⋆
Harry never travels without his bag. Learned it from Hermione, from the war, from the Dursley's. McGonagall pulled him aside and explained that his office was private, off limits, safe. But nothing is safe, not here. Not anywhere. Not Grimmauld, not the Burrow, not a tent in the Forest of Dean. The castle is an old friend, and an old enemy. A prison, but paradise.
⋆☾⋆
Harry and Draco come face to face once more when Draco joins the staff at Hogwarts. Picking up the pieces, Harry just wants to find where he belongs. Draco just wants to be left alone. But Hogwarts is smaller than one might think.

Summary
Ten years after the war ended, the Wizengamot pushes through a Marriage Law to address the plummeting birth rates in the Wizarding World. Tensions run high as old rivals are forced to negotiate marriage contracts and align themselves together to get enough votes to overturn the law. But not everyone is being honest, and more than one life hangs in the balance. How far will Ginny go to regain her freedom?
CW for domestic violence (not Drinny, a side coupling) - I will tag the chapter and section where it is revealed!
Fair warning that Ginny is not perfect in this fic. There will be a point where you are very angry with her (and others) treatment of Hermione. This situation is going to test some friendships like never before, but there is a very good reason for the rift, and it will be mended. We are leaning on the hotheaded Ginny and loyal to a fault Hermione tropes.

Summary
They were unconventional, to say the least. There was never any doubt about that. But there were no three people on earth who were closer than Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Living without one or the other was unimaginable. Trust was implicit, both spoken and unspoken. Hermione would defend either of them with her life, no questions asked. There were curious looks, probing questions, impossibly nosy coworkers, but the three of them were a vault.
"We can be together forever," Ron whimpered in her ear, barely hanging on to his restraint. She could feel his cock against her back, longer and thicker than usual. His fingertips were tracing the line of her waistband. "You can have everything you've ever dreamed of."
"Ron," voice barely above a whisper. "I told you that you are enough for me."
"I want this," he gently spun her around until it was just the two of them. "You and me and Harry, all of us together. We belong. We've always been pack, long before we were bitten. Now, we can seal the bond. I can't wait to show you to Harry."

Summary
“You can’t do it, can you?”
And she hears, rather than sees him stop dead. The rough squeak of his shoes. She doesn’t turn to face him, even as she twists the knife.
“You can’t conjure a Patronus.”

Summary
After the war, everyone thought peace would mean healing. It doesn’t.
Ginny waits for a love slipping through her fingers.
Harry carries ghosts he can’t name and feelings he can’t face.
Hermione keeps everyone together, never realising she’s quietly breaking apart.
And Ron... he’s watching it all happen, loving people who can’t quite love him back the same way.It’s the story of what comes after the happy ending — the silences, the longing, the things left unsaid.
Told through each of their eyes, In the Time It Takes to Breathe is about love in all its quiet, aching forms — a love that lingers, even when you try to let it go.
