    Summary

    Hand drifting down to her abdomen, she knew. When she was younger, she’d known that there was something different about her. About her abilities. Her certainty had been palpable, and was only confirmed when Professor McGonagall had shown up on her doorstep with that fateful letter in hand. And now, just over ten years later, she felt that same sense of certainty again.
    She was pregnant.

    And it all because she’d gone and had a one night stand with the worst person in the world… Draco Malfoy.

    Summary

    “A 97 percent?” her mother asks, eyes never leaving the page of the exam booklet that she’s studying.

    Lily nods, realizes her mother can’t see her, and replies, quietly, “Yes.”

    Her mother hums. It’s an uncertain hum, with an undercurrent of disdain. Lily is very good at interpreting her mother’s hums.

    “Well, that’s not bad darling.” A pause. Lily waits for what is inevitably coming. “But where did the other 3 percent go?”

    OR

    In her fifth year at Hogwarts, Lily Evans begins to dissolve. This is a story of hunger, pressure, what it takes to exceed expectations, and what it means to survive them.

    Summary

    Part of Shane’s brain knew this slight fear in his mind wasn’t grounded in reality. He was one of, if not the best player in the league right now. It was hardly even a controversial opinion. But he knew he could do better. He wasn’t pushing himself enough. Hell, he was more drained after a summer with Ilya than he was when he left the rink.

    That wasn’t good enough. His efforts weren’t good enough. He wasn’t good enough.

     

    Or: Shane's control issues reach a breaking point as he develops an eating disorder disguised as a performance diet. Ilya tries his best.

    Summary

    The first time it happened, he threw up.

    Not afterwards.

    He threw up while he was still inside her. 

    It had pooled over the edge of the bed, sick and orange. Filled with the remnants of his dinner. He remembered staring at the mess, eyes unfocused and wet. His hair had stuck to the sides of his face, salty with sweat and tears. 

    Disgusting.

    And wrong.

    All of it was wrong.

     

    or

     

    The summer before his fifth year, Walburga decides to take the matter of the Black family heir into her own hands. Sirius is merely a pawn. A means to an end. A tool. But the woman he's been engaged to is almost twice his age. Not that Walburga cares. Not that any of them care.

    Oh.

    And he's in love with Remus.

    Summary

    “I don’t think I really have an eating disorder, if I’m honest. I haven’t really had the uhm, you know, the thoughts that people get?” The need to control everything. Nick’s never had that urge.

    “Then why are you here?”

    “Because my rugby coach said it might be good for me?”

    Dr. Walker hums, “But you don’t think you have an eating disorder?”

    “Not… really, no. My boyfriend has anorexia or– had it? He’s in recovery now but…”

    “That must have been difficult for you,” she says, breezing over the fact that Nick said boyfriend.

    “It was,” he admits, “But we made it out the other side in one piece and he’s doing a lot better now. I’ve seen up close what disordered eating behaviors look like and how the thought patterns manifest, I guess.”

    Her expression softens, “Anorexia can look different from person to person.”

    Nick doesn’t know what to say to that. He just knows his body weight is too high to get diagnosed with it.

    or

    Nick develops a severe ED his second year at uni and there isn't enough googling in the world that will fix him.
