Summary
Van wakes up burning. She turned eighteen just last month in the middle of the forest, in a different world than the one she was raised in.
She wakes up and for a moment, she thinks the world is on fire.
(What’s that they say about being born in burning houses?)
But then Van looks up at the faces of her friends and knows that it’s just her.

Summary
Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment.
///
Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.PLEASE DON'T POST MY FICS ON GOODREADS/STORYGRAPHS/ETC.

Summary
Taissa is leaving for Howard, and Van decides to get a tattoo, just because. There's no connection. None at all.
(Or, Van does something impulsive, Tai does not approve. She goes with her anyway. Post-rescue.)
