Summary
The safehouse bursts into flames at their backs.
Even in the apocalypse, you can make choices. If a spider says it's possible, you can change the path your tread. That fire in the distance might be an old friend. Really, would it be so much worse to change who you are?

Summary
Sam's supposed to be here. He might not wanna be, but that's not the point. The others? Yeah, they can complain all they want. Don't make any more difference, they're stuck in here same as him, but they got the right to complain about it. Sam don't got anything like that. Hell, if he hadn't ended up here, he wouldn't have any rights at all. With a little luck, he'd have got the chair or a fancy injection; otherwise, he knows how it'd go: years as a goddamn poster boy for the mutie threat.

Summary
At the end of the world, it's just Martin and Jon - no daemons to speak of. It's lonely - lower-case - but that's nothing compared to what it's like when it isn't the two of them anymore.

Summary
Draco thought he could avoid Potter for the duration of his brief return to England. He’d stick to his schedule and be back home in Paris, where he belonged, in a few short months. No trouble at all. He had plenty to occupy him, what with the opening of the London branch of his successful apothecary, his innovative research, drinks with Pansy, a backlog of unread potions periodicals.
Except Head Auror Potter is everywhere — in Draco's chair, at his door, in his dreams. All six feet of motorbike-riding, combat-boot-wearing, sex-hair-sporting Saviour of the World packed into one unfairly fetching uniform. Potter won’t leave Draco the bloody hell alone, won’t let him breathe, let him forget, let him sleep.
Because no matter how fast Draco Malfoy runs, Harry Potter is always hot on his heels.

Summary
Lonely and frustrated on house arrest, with no prospects for the future, Draco begins brewing Felix Felicis in an attempt to improve his lot. Just in the short term, of course. He isn’t a total idiot.
But before long he finds himself with a thriving business, a nice flat, some actual (albeit irritatingly Gryffindor) friends, and a very satisfying sex life. What’s more, no-one is hexing him in the street. And Harry Potter is single, and gorgeous, and giving Draco decidedly interested looks.
Stop taking the Felix? You must be joking…

Summary
Malfoy gripped his hand tightly, using it to pull Harry towards him a step. “I never had you pegged for a sore loser, Potter.”
Once again, Harry felt that familiar anger twist in his chest, and a small part of his brain registered that it felt good.
“Obviously I know you better then,” he hissed. “I’ve always known you were an arrogant prick.”
A story of love and Quidditch, not necessarily in that order.
