    Summary

    At the crossroads, Avery turns left.

    The golden doors loom over his character, tall and identical, their surfaces catching the light in a way that feels just a little too deliberate. Even from behind the screen, a chill prickles along Avery’s arms.

    Still, he swallows it down. Keeps going. It’s fine. It’s just a game.

    He approaches the doors, takes one final breath, and then—

    “A block of gold?”

    Well, what had he expected, anyway?

    Something grander?

    Something scarier?

    Something less boring?

    “Well… that’s that, I guess.” Avery mutters, wrist twitching as he moves to turn his character around and head back, when—for better or worse—something interesting does happen.

    His head suddenly feels… heavy. Too heavy. His vision starts to blur, the screen warps.

    The room tilts—

    And the last thing he registers is the dull thud of his head hitting the keyboard.

    Summary

    "A good girl is nice. A good girl is calm. A good girl smiles. A good girl only speaks when asked. A good girl is educated. A good girl keeps her husband tidy and happy."

    Cordelia Euphemia Potter had been educated as expected of a young lady. Obedient, kind, silent, a lady whose only priority in life was to marry well and be the perfect housewife. Discovering that she was a witch did not change the plans that her Aunt Petunia had drawn up for her at all when she appeared at her door that cold November morning.

    The magical world thought it would meet a witch who was willing to fight for light, but they met a young lady with the ideals of the 50s, with the dream of having babies and a husband.
