Summary
“Yes. I think it matters.” James is shocked at how soft his own voice is, but even more so at the pause in her footsteps. They’re quiet for a second, and then he hears them approaching.
“Why?” She asks, slowly, slowly walking back towards him, rejoining him at the wall. “Two more years at this place and nobody will care how many O.W.L.s we got last year or who was a prefect or Quidditch captain. Voldemort won’t care. This,” she gestures at the air around her, “won’t mean anything when we leave here.”
“But it means something now, doesn’t it?”
–
It is sixth year and everything has changed, everything is changing, nothing is the same, nothing is different at all.
This is a story of love and of loss (like every story that has ever been told), and of growing pains and growing up. Lily Evans, James Potter, Sirius Black, new friendships forged and old ones not forgotten, alone and not alone with their changing minds, falling in love and falling into place when the walls are falling down around them, everything is falling out from under them.
OR
A long form, slow burn, canon compliant tale of Lily Evans and James Potter, and all the people they love, have loved, have lost.

Summary
Lily Evans enters her final year at Hogwarts with a heavy heart. The country is on the brink of civil war, and as a Muggleborn, she fears for her future—and her survival. Being named Head Girl should have offered some comfort, but that illusion shatters almost instantly when she discovers who she will be sharing the role with.
A sombre, grounded portrayal of Lily’s final year at Hogwarts, as she confronts a world growing darker, learns to trust her own judgment as a woman and a Muggleborn, and unlearns truths she once believed were immutable.
I swear, there are some funny parts as well! And definitely smut later on!!

‘You are so exactly the person I thought you were, James Potter.’ That’s his girl, still so condescending even when she’s put down.
‘Yeah,’ he says, not looking back, ‘I guess I am.’Lily and James read History together at Balliol College, Oxford. Unfortunately, they just can’t seem to read each other for shit.

Summary
Lily Evans and James Potter can't stand each other. Not during their school years and certainly not in the years since. Under no circumstance would they ever agree to fake a marriage... right? Right???

“Tell me what to do and I’ll do it.”
How many times over the years has he said those words and when did he actually start meaning them?

Summary
It’s nothing more than a convenient arrangement. Ginny just needs a room for the night. Harry just needs a break.
It’s a one-time only occurrence. One that they both agree will be forgotten the moment they leave the next day.
But both of them should have learned by now that even their best ideas never exactly go to plan, and rules are made to be broken…

Summary
Maybe it was considered pathetic to be hung up on an ex-girlfriend like this, but when that ex-girlfriend was Joey Potter, Pacey figured the universe would grant him a little leeway.
And hearing from her, even if it was just her roasting him in emails, made the very long days at sea less lonely.
(The Great Recession AU nobody asked for)

Summary
When Luna suggests, after Ginny suffers through the latest in a long line of comically bad dates, that the solution to all of her problems lies in brewing a love potion, she thinks it's all a big joke.
Obviously, magic isn't real. Luna's potion recipe is nothing more than a novelty, sold to tourists enamoured with the legends surrounding their historical hometown of Godric's Hollow.
Of course, Ginny really should've learned by now that her plans have a tendency to go awry. So it really shouldn't come as that much of a surprise to her when, the very next day, half the town seems to find her utterly...bewitching
The only person who appears to be immune to the enchantment she's accidentally cast, is the one person who she wishes saw her as something more than his best friend's little sister; typically, even the miracle of actual magic can't capture Harry Potter's interest, and now he's the only person who can help her fix this latest mess she's created...

Summary
Harry was supposed to be looking for the Snitch, as a professional Seeker but instead, he ends up looking at the opposing team's Chaser and he was lucky he did when she fell to the ground and he was able to swoop in, quite literally. Non-Voldemort, professional quidditch players AU. His management wants them to pretend to be dating, to justify why he had lost them to game in favour of catching the other team's Chaser.

Summary
Harry had spent years imagining this moment.
Snitch in hand.
Roar of the crowd.
Ginevra Weasley *finally* fixing those bright brown eyes on him.He had imagined this moment countless times…
…but never stuffed in Dumbledore’s office squeezed between the Headmaster, two Heads of Houses, an honorary uncle, his godfather, a referee, an auror, his parents and a nervous-looking phoenix.
