Summary
School is out and summer is already half-over, but this slightly tardy story is for all the students and teachers who have ever been so ready for the end of the school year they can barely put any effort in to the remaining days before summer. A little romance helps brighten up the end-of-school-year doldrums for Hermione and Severus. Pure fluff, no smut, but read and see how Severus tries to rekindle the students’ interest by giving them ‘The Talk.’

Summary
After being dumped by Willoughby, Marianne Dashwood is now on a self-improvement kick. She is determined to mature, to improve her mind by extensive reading and to definitely NOT ever fall in love again. She has firmly ‘friend zoned’ Colonel Brandon. Now married, Elinor wants to see Marianne happily married too. Preferably to Colonel Brandon. While Elinor works to get Marianne to change her mind about ‘no second attachments,’ her task is made harder because Colonel Brandon appears to have lost interest. As Marianne discovers more and more to like about Colonel Brandon, Elinor can’t be sure if Colonel Brandon is even trying to court Marianne now or not!
More ups-and-downs of the Marianne/Brandon courtship, a bit of angst, and while we’re not at the end yet, this installment is mostly sweet, tooth-rotting fluff.

Summary
Installment 3 in my informal Brandon/Marianne romance series. All stories are my take on how Marianne and Brandon’s actual courtship took place since that story is not fleshed out in either Jane Austin’s book or the 1995 film. In this story, circumstances begin to converge on Brandon, capturing him in a deadly paradox: as Beth’s guardian, Honor demands that he duel Willoughby for seducing her. But, if Brandon fights in earnest and kills Willoughby, Marianne will hate him forever. To fulfill the role of a true English gentleman of honor, it seems that Brandon must either kill or be killed.

Summary
It's been ten years after the war. Hemione Granger and Severus Snape work together in the Department of Mysteries. Upon returning from Christmas shopping that the two of them did together, Hermione sees an obviously romantically intended gift to an unknown woman, and realizes two things: first — they accidently switched a bag or two, and second does not even bare being thought of… Kind of. Probably.

Summary
A bet lost has Severus Snape going to the annual Order Christmas Eve party. Once there, he realises that he may have more in common with the 'Brightest Witch Of Her Age' than he originally thought.

Bookmarker's Notes
This sweet one-shot really packs a punch. Across 4 Christmases, Severus attends the Order Christmas party—reluctantly at first, but then with growing enthusiasm and even hope as the hours he spends in conversation with Hermione on these Christmas evenings become the highlight of his entire year. The understated descriptions of Severus hoping for something more, though he hardly dares, are heart-rending. Good thing Christmas #5 brings the HEA.

There was no way this date could go well, not when neither of them wanted to be there. But sometimes, expectations do not meet reality.
