Summary
Delphine could not believe the rush of utter adoration that had flooded her own body in that moment. It was as if no one had ever spoken her name before. Not till Cosima had someone called her so that in the very pit of her stomach she felt herself recognised and chosen so completely. And as she played the woman’s name over in her head she felt the strange taste of how holy it was on her tongue too. Cosima. Co-si-ma. To say it was to speak her love because she could not say it without her heart upon her tongue.

Summary
"I need you to dig deeper and faster".
This was stupid. She was fixating on nothing. So she felt an attraction to Cosima. She felt attraction to many people, it did not have to mean anything significant. The fleeting thought arose that her total disorientation from a mere kiss and the sense she had of the terrain shifting underneath her feet probably belied this lie she was telling herself, but she chose to trust it anyway.Series

Summary
“Beraud” she mumbled to herself, testing out her assigned new name. She didn’t much like it and had no doubt she’d have a hard time remembering to answer to it. She’d gotten pretty good at lying over the years but this was a whole new level of deception, an entire new persona between her and the world, keeping Delphine Cormier that little bit further out of reach.
Just what she needed.

Summary

And now she’s going to do the same, in some deluded, desperate hope of an afterlife with Her. - Shay's point of view. Living with Cosima as she fails to recover from Delphine's death. Post Season 3.

Summary
It's been seven years since the war, five years since Hermione and Ron broke up, and...oh dear Merlin, two years since Hermione went on a date.
But it's fine. She has friends. She has her work.
Very complicated work that keeps her late in the office one Friday night. That takes her down to the Department of Mysteries, and back to the Hall of Prophecies for the first time in ten years.
And in that one night, her humdrum life is thrown completely out of the window.
Suddenly her life is one bizarre twist after another. Prophecies and potions and and caves and cliffs and house-elves and and and-
And being stuck in the past. Stuck ten years in the past with Bellatrix Lestrange.
That bloody prophecy.
