Summary
I, Aysel Bardin, failed Threshing.
Entering the Rider's Quadrant wasn't about glory—it was about holding onto the only scrap of family I had left. Obviously, when both of your parents are dead and your sister is on the front lines, the logical path is eighteen inches of stone and a two-hundred foot drop to certain death. I thrived. But three months, a hundred and forty-four dragons, and one godsforsaken valley later, I'm reminded of how this world actually works.
There's no choice but to do it again—politics, death, idiots, dragons—this time beside the children of the rebellion. They're as dangerous to the quadrant as it is to them, though they can't be deadly if they're on my squad. Codex is supposed to be clear about things like that.
But I miss a variable. One variable that somehow turns distance into loyalty, logic into want, control into chaos, and survival into a group project nobody asked for. After that, the math just stops working.
Codex says you can't kill your squadmate. Codex never took “falling for Xaden Riorson will ruin everything—including you” into account.

Summary
“What the fuck, Malfoy?” Ron bellowed. “Stop kissing her.” He rounded on Hermione then, his face screwed up in outrage and confusion. “What did you do that for?”
Dazed, Hermione blinked at him, absently thinking he looked a bit like a gaping fish.
“Oh,” Malfoy smirked. “I do apologize. I spent the summer at our French Chateau and kissing is a customary greeting in France.” He didn’t look remotely repentant.
“I didn’t see you kissing anyone else like that,” Ron spat, still eyeing Hermione suspiciously.
“Hm?” Malfoy asked, distracted, looking at Hermione, his knuckles brushing her cheek.
Hermione felt hot all over.
OR
Draco returns from a summer in France with an insatiable thirst to French kiss Hermione (especially in front of one Ron Weasley).

Summary
Stevie Tate is bored of her life. Everyday is the same and she's over it.
She craves adventure and a fresh start.
And what better place to find those things than in the Rider's Quadrant at Basgiath War College.
But has she got more than she bargained for? As she makes friends, grows closer with a certain second year and discovers secrets she didn't even know she had, will it all be too much for her to handle?
***
Set during Xaden and Garrick's second year at Basgiath.
I wouldn't say you need to have read the Empyrean series to read this, but I will say that there could be potential spoilers for all three books, so read at your own risk.Everything owned by Rebecca Yarros, apart from any OCs :)

The stern and strategic General has been stealthily overseeing her movements, training and ensuring her safety.

Summary
“Kind of ironic really, when you think about it.” I let my attention slip to the side, locking eyes with Xaden. “A daughter of a general and the son of a separatist—perfect for each other.” I hold his gaze challengingly.
✨ 🗡️
Remi Sorrengail is the antithesis of her sister. Snarky, depressed and quick to anger, she’s a realist. She’s well aware she probably won’t be making it out of the Riders Quadrant alive and she’s made peace with that. There’s just one thing she’d like to do there before she goes…climb Xaden Riorson like a tree.

Summary
Hermione Granger is lost.
More than a year after the war, she struggles to find the right path for her life outside of Hogwarts. Still haunted by fear and loss, and faced with a new world that seems less promising than she’s always imagined, Hermione feels herself caught at a dead end — and the nightmares don’t help, either.
When she runs into a familiar face on the night of her birthday, Hermione feels a spark of hope for the first time in a long time. Then, an opportunity for a fresh start presents itself, along with an old nemesis who seems to reignite her need to fight: both for herself, and for the life she’s always wanted.
Hermione jumps headfirst into a journey that forces her to face all of the things she wants to forget, while learning to cherish the messy, beautiful things she is called to remember — scars and all.
A post-war, slow-burn, enemies to lovers Dramione story about healing, redemption, and second chances. Featuring a full cast of your favourite snarky Slytherins.

“Wait. You’re saying you wanna hear about my life *before* I got the serum?” Steve asks, thinking he must have misunderstood.
Peter nods, a shy smile crossing his face. “Uh…yeah?”
~
No one ever asks about Steve Rogers’ life before the serum, not that he expects them to.
So he definitely isn’t expecting to be asked about it by Spider-Man, of all people.Bookmarked by deuxmanen

Summary
It’s not until she’s brought a basil and strawberry sponge cake to Neville Longbottom and his new girlfriend, Hannah Abbott, a dozen rhubarb hand-pies to Luna and Xenophilius Lovegood, and another basket of ganache-covered muffins to Dean and Seamus, that Hermione admits to herself what she’s actually doing: she’s making a thing of this. It’s a veritable PTSD tour. With pastries. And hand-skimmed clotted cream. And she has no idea why she’s doing it, but it’s becoming very apparent that she is.
Sometimes you're sad. Sometimes you need dessert. And sometimes, it's a little of both.

Dramione-centric Deathly Hallows re-write, with an ensemble cast and some fun side-pairings. Adventure, humor, a touch of angst, and a bunch of lemons for taste.

Summary
"Fred and I come second to everyone.”
“You’re first to me.” Julia looked as if she was surprised that it came out of her mouth. “As much as I adore Percy and Charlie, I’ve always liked you the best and that’s got to count for something, right?”
She knocked into George’s shoulder, finally causing him to smile. His heart fluttered a bit.
“Yeah, I guess it counts.”

Summary
He remains silent at first, clearly unsure of what to say next. The temperature feels hot, he thinks, especially for the dungeon's standards. He feels as if he can see the air particles between them, perhaps even count how many separate them from one another.
It feels odd for him to be alone with Granger in the potions lab after all this time.
He catches the faint scent of strawberries and honey, reminding him to order the ingredients for his lesson on Amortentia for his NEWT classes next week.

Summary
It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.
(This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)
**
“Just ask them questions only they would know the answer to,” Malfoy suggests.
“There’s not a single thing that I know about either of them from the first war that any old Death Eater couldn’t find out.”
“How is that possible?” Malfoy huffs. “He’s your father!”
“Am I or am I not famously an orphan?” Potter snarls.
