Summary
After surviving another completely chaotic year at Hogwarts, Dominique Delaire wants nothing more than to disappear into the summer. Before her sixth year begins, she finds her sanctuary in the hidden alleys, smoky pubs, and dusty record shops of Muggle London.
This story is the continuation of Where Magic Fails, spanning from The Half-Blood Prince to the end of The Deathly Hallows.
As the war looms, Dominique and Harry Potter are about to discover that they are much better off as just friends, especially as Dominique’s true desires finally come to light. Meanwhile, an unexpected friendship with Draco Malfoy — born from bitter jokes and snide remarks during Slug Club meetings — might just end up changing their destinies forever.
Adapting to a Hogwarts that feels empty without her best friends, Dominique and Harry Potter both discover what it truly means to fall in love — and with people they did not expected.

Summary
Dominique "Duque" Delaire never asked to be a hero. She prefers Arithmancy to adventures and logic to blind faith. But over three tumultuous years at Hogwarts, the luxury of neutrality quietly slips away.
Caught between the rising darkness outside the castle walls and the chaos of adolescence within them, Duque watches her world shift. It is a time of unlikely alliances, devastating losses, and the painful necessity of growing up. From the chill of Dementors to the return of the Dark Lord, she learns that the most important battles aren't always fought with wands.
When the war finally knocks on her door, Duque realizes that saving the people she loves will require something stronger than magic. It will require breaking the rules entirely.
“There is no spell for this. Logic, physics, and stubbornness where magic fails.”
A coming-of-age story spanning from the Prisoner of Azkaban to the Order of the Phoenix, exploring the logic of chaos and how one pragmatic girl changed the fate of the Marauders.

Summary
The war with Vecna isn't over, but it has gone quiet. In the eighteen-month gap following the "earthquake," the survivors of Hawkins are left to pick up the pieces of their broken lives.
As Mike and Will navigate the ruins of their friendship—trying to bridge the gap left by the van ride, the painting, and years of unspoken truths—two other souls find themselves gravitating toward each other in the dark, and Eleven and Dustin develop a new, profound dynamic.

Summary
Will contou para Mike que gostava dele, no caminho de volta do mundo invertido, em algum momoento antes da explosão. Mas longe de ser uma declaração, ele já avisou que queria superar esses sentimentos, para que pudessem seguir amigos.
Sem ter tido o espaço para entender o que os sentimentos de Will pudessem significar para ele, Mike acabou se tornando uma presença protetora para Will, ou como Max gosta de dizer "territorial". Entre muita conversa pela metade, e péssimas habilidades de comunicação, eles vão dar um jeito e de se encontrar. -

Summary
Somewhere on the trek back from the Upside Down, moments before the explosion, Will admitted to Mike that he had feelings for him. However, far from being a romantic declaration, Will immediately clarified that he intended to move past those feelings just so they could remain friends.
Denied the space to process what Will’s confession might actually mean to him, Mike has transformed into a fiercely protective presence—or, as Max likes to call it, 'territorial.' Amidst half-finished conversations and terrible communication skills, they will still have to find a way to each other.
