What About the Two of Us? by betweenfactandbreakfast

Summary
Lily Evans is now known internationally as one of the greatest female artists of the 21st century. But before the fame, before the success— she was just Lily Evans, the super-groupie blamed for the downfall of legendary rock band the Marauders and that of their rivals, post-punk pioneers Death Eaters. Until now, nobody from either band has been willing to speak about what happened. So when up-and-coming musical reporter Ginny Weasley gets the opportunity of a lifetime, she takes her chance.
This is the story of Lily Evans, as told through interviews with Lily herself, and those who knew her best. This is a story about how the heart's not rational— at least, not when you want it to be.

Summary
“The Knave of Hearts,” she said quietly, showing him. “He will cause such mischief tonight, and the Queen shall be very cross with him.”
“Well, the devil with her, then,” William said, pulling Dru onto his lap. She giggled and squealed, and he set the bottle of gin to her lips, tilting it— then he kissed her, tasting the sharp liquor on her tongue.

Summary
On the run from both Darkspawn and Templars, a sarcastic young apostate named Marian Hawke tries to make a life for herself and her family in Kirkwall. As the city slips inexorably into chaos, she finds herself caught up in events beyond her control. Whether it's fate or chance, there comes a time when one must stop running, and face the wolves.
They’d left Ferelden behind, perhaps forever, left their old lives behind, whatever remained of them. Left behind Bethany’s empty bed and Malcolm’s grave. Whatever was before had come to an end. And without an end, there can be no peace.
Set in a version of Thedas with modern technology, this fic spans the entire plot of Dragon Age II.

Summary
It never seems quite enough, whatever it is that they have. It never seems quite enough, when Lily sneaks back into her dormitory trying not to make a sound. It never seems quite enough when she lays in bed staring up at the canopy, feeling an empty, ringing ache for something she can’t describe.
A Lily Evans POV as she struggles with her attraction to James Potter and what she'll allow herself to have. Set during part 3 of The Darkest Days but not necessary to have read it.

Summary
When you think of Chloe, you see her sleeping at her desk. Spine curving, her limbs askew, her blue hair peeking from beneath her beanie. You see her hunched over, a square of sunlight cutting across her lovely face, a hundred Missing Girl posters spilling across her lap. You smell her shampoo and cigarettes. It's that fucking realistic.
